Concept Gate — evaluates after non-trivial tasks whether a reusable WORKING METHOD (not a decision, not a bug fix) is worth archiving; writes to the tenant knowledge base's concepts/ when yes (or amends an existing entry), names the skip reason when no, requires evidence citations (real commits/tasks), and mints a bootstrap-graded companion SkillForge learned-experience skill so durable methods are auto-injected into future turns, not just archived.
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
# Concept Gate — self-learning working-method archive Apply this gate once at the END of any non-trivial task, immediately before declaring "done," alongside ADR Gate. Most tasks will not produce a concept — that is the correct and expected outcome. ## The bar is HIGH The default answer is: **no concept needed.** ADR Gate asks "does this decision need a record?"; Concept Gate asks "did I just execute or discover a reusable WAY OF WORKING — not a one-off decision, not a one-off bug fix — that would save real time if a future agent had it pre-loaded?" **Do NOT write a concept for:** - A single bug fix with nothing generalizable about it - A one-off tooling workaround - Anything already fully captured by an existing concept — amend that one instead - Anything a ≤16 KiB SkillForge skill snippet genuinely already covers on its own ## Write or amend a concept only when at least one holds 1. **Recurrence:** the same investigation/fix/verification SHAPE showed up across 2+ distinct tasks in ways that weren't already duplicated code. …

How to install
mdr add corvinlabs/corvinos/concept_gate@sha256:a58f628ee6e14e63The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261103.0105fa8, 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.
