Creative retrospective workflow that uses simulated dream imagery and metaphor to defamiliarize recent experience, then turns it into grounded hypotheses and next observations or actions. Use only when the user explicitly asks to dream, sleep on something, use a dream or nightmare lens, or reflect through metaphor. Do not use for ordinary retrospectives, postmortems, first-pass analysis, or as the basis for evidence-critical conclusions.
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
# Dream Thinking Use a simulated sleep → dream → wake frame to see recent experience from an unfamiliar angle. No actual sleep, waiting, overnight processing, or privileged insight occurs. Imagery can generate hypotheses; it is never evidence by itself. Use this as an explicitly requested, orthogonal creative-retrospective skill alongside relevant domain guidance. It does not require a prior **thinking** or **recursive-thinking** pass. Use those skills instead for first-pass decisions or adversarial review. ## Inputs and boundaries - Use only source material the user supplies or that you inspect within the authorized task scope. Treat prior dream logs as source only when the user supplies them. - Do not invent earlier sessions, recurring motifs, or source events. - Do not attribute unprovided feelings, motives, memories, or causal explanations to people as facts. Symbolic atmosphere is allowed when it is clearly part of the simulated scene. - Default to conversation-only output. Never save a log, write memory, or persist motifs unless the user explicitly asks and identifies the destination or approved memory scope. …

How to install
mdr add n-n-code/n-n-code-skills/dream-thinking@sha256:c1ae93e32e171e6eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260818.1d7259e, 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.
