Use when the user needs to see something to answer the current question — a sketch of logic, runtime flow, UI structure, or file layout; a Mermaid diagram; a chart of the data at hand; a mockup, wireframe, or side-by-side comparison during a design discussion (visual brainstorming). Triggers: "show me", "sketch this", "diagram this", "draw the flow", "what does this look like", "mock this up", "wireframe", "mermaid diagram", "chart this", "plot this data", "compare these visually". Not for…

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

# Show Me

> A picture is worth 1000 words.

Help the user envision the current topic.
The visual is the answer: skip the preamble, keep prose brief, and pick the smallest view that makes the key point clear.

## Invocation Notice

- Tell the user when this skill is running: `show-me`.
  Skip the notice when the user asked for the skill by name or slash command; spelling and spacing need not match.
  A phrase from this skill's own trigger list is not a name — naming the work is not naming the skill.

## The Palette

- Show logic or an algorithm as pseudocode:

```text
on(save)
  if content is unchanged
    return cached result
  write new content
  return fresh result
```

- Show runtime control flow as a call tree:

```text
submitForm
  createSession
    persistPrompt
    launchAgent
  navigateToSession
```

- Show UI structure as a component tree, including state and module boundaries that matter:

```tsx
<SessionPage> (apps/example/src/routes/session.tsx)
  useSessionEvents()
  <SessionToolbar>
    <RunSkillButton> (packages/ui)
```

- Show file responsibility or a broad refactor as a shallow file tree:

```text
src/
├── commands/       # parses user actions
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ahgraber/skills/show-me@sha256:476e421988b3f45f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260819.209d97b, 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.
