kanso-unasked SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

Use when the user wants to see or clean up what an agent did beyond the request, such as "what did you add that I didn't ask for", "did you go beyond the brief", "scope creep", "what decisions did you make for me", "undo the extras", or "clean up what I didn't ask for". Not for general code review (kanso-audit) or behaviour-preserving cleanup (kanso-refactor).

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

# kanso-unasked

Traces every changed line to the user's words, shows what cannot be traced, and removes what they reject. A good idea nobody asked for is still unasked. The user decides what stays; the agent neither defends its choices nor reverts them unprompted.

Run `python3 <skill>/scripts/unasked.py <command>` from the repo, with `<skill>` resolved from this file's folder. Its files stay outside the working tree, so it adds nothing to the diff. Work in the repo itself, never a copy, because cuts must land there.

## 1. Find the request

Collect the user's own words, verbatim: `$ARGUMENTS` if it holds a request or brief, every instruction in this conversation, and anything they approved mid-session, such as an accepted plan or a "yes, do that".

With none of those, ask what they asked for and stop until they answer. Commit messages, PR descriptions, and code comments describe what was built, so they cannot stand in for the request.

## 2. Number the changes

`collect [--base REF]` compares the base with the working tree, untracked files included. It picks the branch point by default. If the user means something narrower, such as this session's work, pass that commit.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add blakecyze/skills/kanso-unasked@sha256:f9ee5f4d68eb1b95

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261105.e2c175b, 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.
