Refresh and validate a hraness/wordcell Markdown knowledge graph after notes, concepts, typed relationships, attachments, repository scopes, or context mappings change. Use when an agent needs to maintain a managed or authored catalog, inspect graph and lifecycle findings, validate local artifacts and scope hubs, or complete a vault health check.
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
# Refresh a knowledge base Use a refresh-review-check loop. Keep authored prose under deliberate editorial control. A managed vault gives the marked catalog region to the tool; an authored vault leaves its complete front door untouched. ## 1. Locate the vault - Resolve `<vault>` to the directory containing its managed or authored `index.md`, then set the shell-local `KB_ROOT` to that path (`KB_ROOT=kb` from a typical repository root, or `KB_ROOT=.` from inside the vault). - When the change concerns `scopes/` or an `kb:context` marker, resolve the repository root and set `KB_REPO` to that path (`KB_REPO=.` from the repository root). - Read the vault's applicable agent instructions and note conventions before editing. - Preserve note voice, frontmatter, filenames, and link intent unless a reported finding justifies a specific change. ## 2. Refresh derived state When several agents are still editing a managed vault, do not refresh its shared catalog in each lane. Validate the lane's Markdown and graph facts with: ```sh wordcell check --root "$KB_ROOT" --no-catalog ``` The integrating agent performs the managed refresh once after the lanes join. …

How to install
mdr add hraness/wrench/refresh-kb@sha256:31ddc015d7b1c4c5The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260928.35403bc, 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.
