Add a short, project-specific rule, convention, or override to .unikit/RULES.md — the quick-capture inbox for this project's rules (common rules always load; topic files in .unikit/rules/ load when the work matches), automatically loaded by /unikit-implement (later promotable via /unikit-memory migrate-rules). Works only with a rule typed as a prompt — it does NOT read files, folders, URLs, or PDFs. Cross-checks the knowledge base (RULES_INDEX.md) to avoid duplicating core/stack entries. Use…

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

# UniKit Rules — Project Conventions

Add short, actionable rules to `.unikit/RULES.md` and to the topic files it lists in `.unikit/rules/`. Rules are project-specific overrides that take precedence over the base knowledge rules in `.unikit/memory/code/core/` and `.unikit/memory/code/stack/`.

Before adding any rule, cross-check it against RULES_INDEX.md to avoid duplicating what's already covered in the knowledge base. If a rule is already covered — tell the user and skip. If the rule contradicts or extends an existing knowledge base rule — add it as an explicit override to RULES.md with a note about what it overrides.

**User questions.** Right before your first question to the user, not earlier, read `.unikit/system/user-questions.md` once and ask every question as it says, with the question tool of your agent (`AskUserQuestion`). If the file cannot be read, print `WARN [questions] user-questions contract missing — asking with the question tool` and still ask with that tool, the recommended option first.

## Language Awareness — BLOCKING PRE-REQUISITE

**BEFORE producing ANY output**, silently read `.unikit/system/LANGUAGE_RULES.md`
and apply its rules to ALL subsequent output.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add nintendadev/unikit-ai/unikit-rules@sha256:0ae3b48e7c5da46a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.2941048, 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.
