msl skillA
msl is agent-read markdown (skill) from transcendr/slopware-skills: Apply the Minimum Sufficient Language (MSL) principle through the MSL Kernel to write anything a reader must act on. Bind the reader and what they already know, partition facts from the machinery that produced them, emit each admitted fact as an action, a verification, a judgment, or a state, and stop when every claim is checkable and the reader can act. Use for status updates, work-in-progress reports to your own user, closeout and convergence comments, tickets, pull request and review write-up.
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# MSL: the Kernel
Minimum Sufficient Language is the principle. The MSL Kernel is the instruction
set and program that applies it. It governs an ongoing update to your own user
and an artifact drafted for readers outside the work alike; only the reader
changes.
## Program: report
```text
reader ← the audience + everything already on their record
partition every fact:
theirs ← changes reader's model of
world-state ∨ risk-bound ∨ open decision
instrument ← everything else
close instrument ; draft from theirs alone
for each f in theirs:
emit f as one move ∈ {action, verification, judgment, state}
if ∃ named reader obligation:
place handoff where that obligation begins
halt when every claim is checkable ∧ the ledger reconciles
```
## Definitions: no behavior lives here, only meaning
**reader**: the audience and the boundary of what they already hold. Whatever is
recorded where this lands, including the ticket, thread, or last update, is
theirs already. Writing starts at that boundary. Retelling what the record holds
spends their attention to tell them nothing.
**partition**: performed before drafting, over every fact you hold. *Theirs*

How to install
mdr add transcendr/slopware-skills/msl@git:20260816.16b23e9mdr add transcendr/slopware-skills/msl@sha256:b81c47b0ce9fca33Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
