Discards this thread's accumulated drafts and framings and re-derives the task from a clean problem statement. Use when the user says the thread is contaminated, the conversation is going in circles, or that they want a fresh take.
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
This thread's history has become the problem - prior drafts and framings are anchoring every new attempt. Reset. First, extract what's worth keeping, in plain factual terms: who is involved, the outcome I want, the hard constraints, the known facts, and - critically - what's already been tried and ruled out, so a fresh derivation doesn't walk back into a dead end. Then pick the path by severity: - Deep contamination, or anything high-stakes: do not try to reset yourself - the contaminated model cannot be trusted to author its own reset. Hand the extracted brief to a fresh subagent, or recommend I start a new session. A genuinely clean context window is the only reliable reset. - Mild drift only: re-derive in-thread from the extracted brief, as if seeing the task for the first time. Void the earlier drafts entirely - no referencing, quoting, or patching them. If you are unsure the brief itself is right, show it to me before drafting; otherwise just proceed.

How to install
mdr add tenequm/skills/reset-context-contamination@sha256:fe3df10f6deabccaThe line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.5, 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.
