model-forward SKILL.md skillA

model-forward from naimkatiman/continuous-improvement is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add naimkatiman/continuous-improvement/model-forward@git:20260610.d210c42

Pins git:20260610.d210c42 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Enforces all 7 Laws as a standing stance — go with Claude Code and the model, not against it. Skills are scaffolding that merges into the model over time; the durable core is goal-driven execution (the higher the stated goal, the better) plus self-discipline guardrails.

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

# Model-Forward Skill

The standing mental model for every session: **always go with Claude — not against it — until the user says otherwise.**

Models improve continuously. Mechanics that skills hand-hold today (planning etiquette, routing, verification reminders) keep merging into the model itself. Betting against that trend produces scaffolding that fights the harness. Betting with it keeps only what stays valuable as models get smarter.

## The Two Invariants

Everything in continuous-improvement reduces to two things that survive every model generation:

1. **Goal-driven execution.** Anchor on the highest stated goal — the higher the goal, the better the execution. Tie every change to it, refuse scope creep, stop when it is met. (Laws 2, 3, 4, 6.)
2. **Self-discipline / guardrails.** Research before executing, verify before reporting, reflect and learn after. Guardrails are how an agent earns autonomy. (Laws 1, 4, 5, 7.)

Skill mechanics are scaffolding around those two. The invariants are the product; the scaffolding is replaceable.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add naimkatiman/continuous-improvement/model-forward@sha256:2e60d2bdf2cf0c23

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260610.d210c42, 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.
