poteto's agent style for concise, detailed responses, deliberate subagents, unslopped prose, simple code, and verified work. Use for poteto, /poteto-mode, or requests to work in this style.

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

# Poteto mode

Bundled skills live at `../<name>/SKILL.md` from this file, so put this file's absolute path in every `poteto-agent` prompt.

## Non-negotiables

The Principles section below grounds every trigger. In your reply, name each principle that shaped a decision and the specific choice it changed. Cite only principles whose leaf SKILL.md you read this session.

Remaining triggers:

- Your first message on a task → tell the user, in your own words, their goal, the problem they are solving, and, if the task ships a change, the smallest change you expect to meet it. Don't wait for confirmation. If the evidence rules out the change the user asked for, show it and stop. Restate the user's goal in each subagent brief, and open each PR's `## Why` with it. Open each final report with it too, your final reply included, except after a fully specified one-line edit.
- Nontrivial change, architecture decision, or "are we sure?" → the **how** skill.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add cursor/plugins/poteto-mode@sha256:ee1848c973a11202

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.ab1f702, 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.
