Refresh or bootstrap `.metagit.yml` using deterministic init/validate. Use when configuration is missing, stale, or incomplete for workspace operations.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Refreshing Project Config

Keep `.metagit.yml` accurate without dumping detect output into context.

## Workflow

1. `metagit config validate -c .metagit.yml` (or note that the file is missing).
2. If missing: `metagit init --kind application --no-prompt` or `skills/metagit-bootstrap/scripts/bootstrap-config.sh .`
3. Optional enrich: `metagit detect repository -p . -o summary`, or `--output-file .metagit/.detect/repository.json` for the full payload. Do not run `detect repo_map`.
4. Patch with `metagit config patch` / catalog commands. Re-validate.
5. If the file has `includes:`, edit the fragment that owns the field. Do not replace the root with merged `config show` output. Split or flatten with `metagit config split` / `metagit config flatten`.

## Output contract

Return config health before/after, a short update summary, and any manual follow-up. Do not paste full YAML.

## Safety

- Prefer plan/dry-run for large updates.
- Never overwrite a valid umbrella workspace mapping without confirmation.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add metagit-ai/metagit-cli/metagit-config-refresh@sha256:6ece7ced0ea9f10e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.5d6c554, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
