Use when designing the break-glass path a human uses to fire a kill switch, halt a strategy or pause orders: role checks, four-eyes sign-off, verified single-use tokens and a record of who authorised what. It authorises; it does not cancel.
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
## When to Use Use this skill when designing or reviewing the human authorisation path in front of an emergency control action — `KILL_SWITCH_ALL_ALGOS`, `HALT_STRATEGY`, `PAUSE_ORDERS`, or any manual intervention that suppresses or bypasses an automated risk control.

How to install
mdr add himanshuj16/algo-trading-skills/emergency-manual-override-access-control@sha256:443ff488186e10d9The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.0, 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.
