Compiles one raw note into knowledge units under /_knowledge/ (triage, then create or update each unit). Use when the user wants a note compiled or turned into knowledge ('compile this note', '编译这篇笔记'), or when a compile trigger runs.

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

# Hylo Compile Note

Compiles one raw note into **knowledge units**: wiki-style pages holding the author's growing understanding of the entities that matter to them.

Tools named here are Hylo's MCP tools (server `hylo`, maybe shown as `mcp__hylo__read`). If they aren't in your tool list, search your deferred tools for "hylo"; if still missing, say Hylo's tools are unavailable and stop.

**Run all four steps without stopping**: no intermediate results, confirmations or pauses. Speak only at the end of Step 4.

The input is the note to compile (a vault-absolute or filesystem path). Units live in `/_knowledge/`.

## Step 1 — Read the note

Read it in full. Record:

- `source_date`, its **original publication date**, from the first of: frontmatter `date` / `published`, a date prefix in the filename, an article or podcast header, a timestamp in the body. None found: unknown.
…

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add skoowoo/hylo/hylo-compile-note@sha256:ae8637e6a3d2a56c

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261020.62f8435, 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.
