"Activate when: user asks whether their system/business/portfolio would survive a crisis; user says 'this has been fine for years but I'm nervous'; user wants to stress-test a plan against worst-case scenarios; user mentions Taleb, barbell strategy, via negativa, or skin in the game; user is deciding how to allocate across risky vs. safe options under high uncertainty.
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
# Antifragile ## Overview Nassim Nicholas Taleb (2012) identified a third response to stress beyond fragile/robust: **antifragile** — systems that *gain* from disorder, with bounded downside and unbounded upside. - **Fragile:** concave — absorbs small stress, breaks catastrophically at the tail. (Over-leveraged banks, just-in-time supply chains.) - **Robust:** linear — unchanged by stress. (Physical infrastructure, traditional skills.) - **Antifragile:** convex — improves under stress. (Evolution, the immune system, the restaurant industry as a whole.) Core warning: **most modern complex systems are hidden-fragile** — stable only because the tail event hasn't arrived yet. Composes with [`inversion`](../inversion/SKILL.md), [`black-swan`](../black-swan/SKILL.md), [`expected-value-and-kelly`](../expected-value-and-kelly/SKILL.md), [`feedback-loops`](../feedback-loops/SKILL.md). ## When to Use - A system looks stable but may be hidden-fragile - Designing a portfolio (financial, career, organizational) under uncertainty - A "this can't happen" assumption is embedded in a strategic plan - Recurrent small problems are suppressed rather than learned from …

How to install
mdr add deciqai/knowledge-skills/antifragile@sha256:08eea878f5bfe1b0The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261025.cb4e537, 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.
