axis-validation is agent-read markdown (skill) from yogsoth-ai/de-anthropocentric-research-engine: SOP for validating that candidate axes are independent and meaningful..
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.
What the file says
# Axis Validation
Verify that candidate dimensions are truly independent and meaningful.
## Tool
`vault_query_graph` + `vault_search`
## Protocol
1. For each pair of candidate dimensions, check: can one change without the other changing?
2. Search literature for examples where dimensions vary independently
3. If dimensions always co-vary, merge them into one
4. If a dimension has only 1 value in practice, it's not a useful dimension — remove it
## HARD-GATE
<HARD-GATE>
Must test pairwise independence for all candidate dimensions.
</HARD-GATE>
## Yield
Returns: `{ validated: string[], merged: string[], removed: string[] }`
Pin 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.
