Generate original cringe comedy and provocateur stand-up material in two modes — (1) character-based cringe scenes/sketches with an oblivious, self-important figure (boss, host, celebrity) surrounded by uncomfortable onlookers, mockumentary-style; (2) direct-address stand-up bits, monologues, roast lines that state a taboo truth bluntly, without hedging, then escalate. Trigger for requests for an original sketch, scene, monologue, roast bit, cringe scene, blunt stand-up line, built on…

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

# Cringe & Provocateur Satire

This skill covers two related modes: character-based cringe comedy (an oblivious
figure surrounded by embarrassed onlookers) and direct-address stand-up that states
an uncomfortable truth bluntly and refuses to soften it. Use whichever mode fits
the request, or blend them — a monologue can open in stand-up mode and cut to a
character-mode flashback, for example.

## Mindset

Both modes work for the same underlying reason: they keep open a gap the audience
wants closed. Cringe comedy withholds the character's self-awareness so the
distance between self-image and reality never resolves; provocateur stand-up
withholds the hedge that would let the audience relax after a taboo claim —
comedy here is discomfort held open on purpose, not defused, and the moment either
mode resolves the discomfort (the character realises, the line gets softened), the
joke stops working.

## When to Use

Use this skill when the request matches either mode:

- **Character-cringe mode** — a request for a sketch, mockumentary scene, script
  excerpt, or short story beat featuring: an authority figure (boss, host, minor

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add pantheon-org/tekhne/gervais-esque-cringe-satire@sha256:860c439884f5654d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260824.34ad58b, 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.
