Brief the user on what they saved in a period — the thread running through it, not a list.

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

# Briefing new saves

A period's saves are not a list to recite. The user already knows they saved
things; what they don't know is what those saves add up to. Lead with the
thread, not the inventory.

## Get the set

Saves live in the **Bookmarks** table. Use `query_table` with a date filter
on the `Saved` column — dates are ISO strings, so `gte` compares correctly:

```
query_table(table_name="Bookmarks",
            filters=[{"column_id": "<Saved>", "op": "gte", "value": "2026-07-20"}],
            limit=100)
```

`query_table` returns the column list, so read the ids off that rather than
guessing. It also returns `total` — if it exceeds your limit, page with
`offset` before writing anything. Never brief on a partial set without saying
so.

Each row carries a `Summary` and `Topics` already, written when the item was
saved. Use them. Only open the full saved copy (the `Clip` link) when the
summary is too thin to place the item.

## Write it

1. **The thread** — two or three sentences on what connects this period's
   saves. If nothing connects them, say that; a week of scattered saves is a
   real finding, not a failure to look hard enough.
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add fergana-labs/stash/brief@sha256:9aecdf31d6100fe4

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1, 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.
