galls-law skillA
galls-law is agent-read markdown (skill) from the-artificer-of-ciphers-llc/skills-from-the-artificer: Apply Gall's Law when someone proposes building a complex system from scratch, planning a big-bang rewrite, designing a greenfield platform, or debating whether to "just rebuild it the right way." Trigger on phrases like "let's rewrite this properly", "we need to start fresh", "the architecture is too complex to fix", "let's build the perfect system", or any situation where someone wants to leap directly to a sophisticated, full-featured solution. Gall's Law is a powerful antidote to over-engine.
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.
How to install
mdr add the-artificer-of-ciphers-llc/skills-from-the-artificer/galls-law@git:20260530.3e17152mdr add the-artificer-of-ciphers-llc/skills-from-the-artificer/galls-law@sha256:efd9d9639a689088Pin 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.
