1Give duplicated files or trees one canonical home and make every other path a filesystem identity of it, after an audit and an approval.

3## Goal
4 
5Duplicated files or trees get one canonical home, and every other path its consumers read becomes an identity of it held by this machine's filesystem: a hardlink, symlink, junction or bind mount. Nothing is lost on the way: neither the bytes nor the preservation contract, which covers ACLs, owner and mode, named streams, xattrs and the timestamps that must be kept. Use it when consumers need the same bytes at several paths and textual references cannot serve them.

11Every deterministic step runs `node scripts/identity.mjs` from this skill's folder, with the subcommands `probe`, `digest`, `compare`, `link`, `verify` and `unlink`; every subcommand accepts `--json`.
