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
<!-- trace:start --> ## trace Tool Routing IMPORTANT: For ANY code exploration task, ALWAYS use trace tools first. NEVER use host file-reading, grep, glob, or shell (ls, find) tools for navigating source code. | Task | trace tool | Instead of | |------|------------|------------| | Find a function/class/method | `search` | text grep | | Understand a file before editing | `get_outline` | full-file read | | Read one symbol's source | `get_symbol` | full-file read | | What breaks if I change X | `get_change_impact` | guessing | | All usages of a symbol | `find_usages` | text grep | | All implementations of an interface | `get_implementations` | directory search (ls/find) | | All classes implementing X | `search` with `implements` filter | text grep | | Project health / coverage gaps | `self_audit` | manual inspection | | Dead code / dead exports | `get_dead_code` (`mode: "exports_only"`) | text grep for unused | | Context for a task | `get_feature_context` | reading 15 files | | Tests for a symbol | `get_tests_for` | glob + grep | | Untested symbols (deep) | `get_untested_symbols` (deferred — load via `load_tools`) | manual audit | …

How to install
mdr add nikolai-vysotskyi/trace-mcp/AGENTS.md@sha256:ba7aa030322c257dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260908.1def36d, 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.
