information-hiding SKILL.md skillA
information-hiding from codybrom/clairvoyance is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add codybrom/clairvoyance/information-hiding@git:20260722.fcfda01Pins git:20260722.fcfda01 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Checks for information leakage across module boundaries, including temporal decomposition and false encapsulation. Use when modules change together, implementation details leak across boundaries, or structure follows execution order rather than knowledge ownership. Not for merge/split decisions (use module-boundaries) or interfaces over-specialized for one caller (use general-vs-special).
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
# Information Hiding Review Lens When invoked with $ARGUMENTS, focus the analysis on the specified file or module. Read the target code first, then apply the checks below. Evaluate whether modules encapsulate design decisions effectively. ## When to Apply - Reviewing module boundaries or class decomposition decisions - When multiple modules change together for single-decision changes - When private fields have matching getters and setters - When modules are organized around execution steps (read/process/write) - When a format, protocol, or representation appears in multiple places ## Core Principles ### Knowledge Ownership Test For every design decision in the code (data format, algorithm choice, protocol, storage representation): 1. Which module owns this decision? 2. Is that ownership exclusive, and no other module knows this? 3. If this decision changes, does only one module need editing? If #3 is "no," there is information leakage. ### Two Kinds of Leakage #### Interface Leakage The decision appears in parameters, return types, or exceptions. Bad, but at least visible and discoverable. #### Back-Door Leakage …

How to install
mdr add codybrom/clairvoyance/information-hiding@sha256:0139353faf315057The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260722.fcfda01, 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.
