A reusable decision procedure, and a copyable prototype for the guard that encodes it — derive the population, set one threshold by what being wrong costs, name the offender, and break it once to prove it can fail. Use when writing a check, guard, gate or validation of any kind, or when deciding whether something is safe, done, duplicated, stale, or worth doing — so the shape is the same every time instead of re-derived per session.
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
# Decide from counted evidence, not from an impression **Code calculates. A model reasons. This decides.** The pattern is borrowed openly from the decision models now being built for agent systems, and one thing is deliberately different: the confidence here does **not** come from a model. It comes from evidence you counted. Nothing in this procedure calls out, and nothing about it needs a network. That difference is the whole reason it can be trusted offline — and the reason step 3 is the one that cannot be skipped. --- ## 1 · Name the decision, and what being wrong costs Write both before looking at anything. The cost sets the threshold; there is no global one. > *"Is this file safe to edit?" Being wrong means the edit is silently discarded.* > *"Does this component already exist?" Being wrong means a wasted afternoon, recoverable.* > *"Is this a credential?" Being wrong once is the whole product failing.* **One threshold per action, scaled to that cost.** A single number for the whole system is how a gate ends up too strict for cheap mistakes and too loose for expensive ones. ## 2 · Write the questions before you look …

How to install
mdr add arcticfox2029/chamnan/decide@sha256:67338edfd3b1aed5The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260922.3c3a804, 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.
