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
## When to use Use localdb when you need to retrieve passages from a local corpus with verifiable citations. It indexes Markdown, plain text, HTML, text-layer PDF, Office documents (DOCX/PPTX/XLSX/XLS/CSV), EPUB, and URL/feed sources, and returns structured `Citation` objects with the source URI, exact snippet, byte span, per-component relevance scores (BM25, dense, RRF-fused), provenance hashes, and Dublin Core document metadata. Hybrid search runs entirely in-process — no daemon or GPU needed. The first indexing or search operation downloads the default local embedding model (~706 MB, one time, no API key). --- ## CLI crib sheet ```bash # 0. Shortcut: create the default store, add a folder, and index it in one step localdb add ~/notes # 1. Or explicitly: create a store localdb store add notes # 2. Register a directory as a source on that store localdb source add ~/notes --store notes # 2a. Or a URL / feed source localdb source add https://example.com/doc --store notes # 3. Index all sources in the store (incremental; re-run any time) localdb index --store notes # 4. Search and get JSON citations (flags go BEFORE the query text) …

How to install
mdr add dokterbob/localdb/localdb@sha256:4e628e0dc884bd30The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260906.60120c5, 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.
