Determine the conceptual proximity of a topic -- its parent topic, its most relevant sibling topics, and its most relevant child topics -- optionally grounded in Internet/Web facts and optionally navigable in an interactive loop. Use when the user wants to explore the conceptual neighborhood of a topic, or mentions "proximity" or "related topics".
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.

How to install
mdr add rse/ase/ase-meta-proximity@sha256:d3a393fd4f6a4689The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260801.f1208fb, 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.
