Resolve an active merge or rebase conflict, including plans and chronicles with colliding names.

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

# Resolve Merge Conflicts

1. Verify `MERGE_HEAD` or `REBASE_HEAD`; otherwise stop with `No merge in progress.`
2. Before any write, list conflicts and classify each as AUTO or JUDGMENT.
3. AUTO requires mechanical proof; default to JUDGMENT. AUTO cases:
   - Sides byte-identical (`git show :2:<f>` vs `:3:<f>`) or differing only in whitespace/EOL → take either.
   - AU → `git add`, but `git rm` if its slug already exists in theirs under another name (duplicate).
   - Lock file → checkout one side, regenerate via the package manager.
   - `CHANGELOG.md` → merge unique entries, dedupe, keep category order.
4. When an OURS-only `NNNN__` plan or chronicle collides with a THEIRS number, keep THEIRS. Rename OURS to `YYYY-MM-DD__<slug>.md` with its own date and slug. Repair paired records, research, and cross-references. When date names collide, reconcile the same task or give different tasks distinct slugs.
5. Show every conflict with file, code, action, and classification. Ask once: Approve / Modify / Abort. Abort writes nothing.
6. Apply approved AUTO actions; report only counts and failures.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add reidemeister94/development-skills/resolve-merge@sha256:3eb023c8ca6fdf04

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261031.a82a617, 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.
