Use when the user provides an original and rewritten version, asks whether a rewrite preserved protected content, or wants a deterministic check for code, frontmatter, quotes, tables, links, paths, numbers, headings, and residual AI-pattern regressions.
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
# Preservation Verifier Verify that a rewrite or file edit kept the content the original `../avoid-ai-writing/SKILL.md` says to protect. For cross-Skill work, follow `../avoid-ai-writing-router/references/handoff-contract.md` and `../avoid-ai-writing-router/references/skill-graph.json`. ## Connection contract ### Incoming Accept before/after verification from: - `avoid-ai-writing-router` via `ROUTE` when the user directly supplies before and after material. - `voice-preserving-rewriter` via `VERIFY` after returned-text rewriting. - `file-edit-in-place` via `VERIFY` after an authorized named-file mutation. Require both original and current versions. If either is unavailable, return control to the router rather than inventing a comparison. ### Produce Update the handoff envelope with: - `execution_evidence.verifier`: `executed` only if the bundled validator ran, otherwise `model_only`. - `verification_summary.status`: `PASS`, `REVIEW`, or `FAIL`. - blocking errors and warnings. - exact repair target when repair is possible. A `FAIL` is a blocking workflow result. The rewrite/edit stage is not complete merely because text was produced or a file write succeeded. …

How to install
mdr add conorbronsdon/avoid-ai-writing/preservation-verifier@sha256:e67c6f9708f7af62The line at the top of this page pins the label v3.38.0, 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.
