Complete work in progress that the user left incomplete on purpose. Use when the tree holds bare signatures, empty modules, pseudo code, deleted code, or `AI TODO` / `AI FIXME` / `AI NOTE` markers.

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

# Filling the gaps

The user gave you work in progress. It is incomplete, and it can be broken. This is correct. The user writes the code that says what the software must be, and you write the code that makes it run.

## The tree is the specification

The user speaks to you in these forms:

| Form | Means |
| :-- | :-- |
| A signature with no body | Build this. The name and the types are the contract. |
| An empty class or module | This concept exists. Find its parts. |
| Pseudo code | The steps are correct. Write them in the language. |
| Deleted code and a comment | The old solution is dead. Do not bring it back. |
| A marker | Read the marker. |

- ALWAYS read the full diff, and then every file that the diff touches, before the first edit.
- NEVER repair the tree back to its last working state. Broken is the input, not the fault.
- NEVER add a feature that no gap asks for.

## Markers

A marker starts with `AI`. The prefix means the line speaks to you.

- `AI TODO` — the code is absent. Write it.
- `AI FIXME` — the code is present and wrong. Replace it.
- `AI NOTE` — a constraint on the work near it. It is not work by itself.

- ALWAYS delete a marker when you satisfy it.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mk27mk/no-bs-skills/fill-the-gaps@sha256:5f84bdd11455a110

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260829.494e1e7, 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.
