void SKILL.md skillA

void from simota/agent-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add simota/agent-skills/void@git:20261019.e7cdf45

Pins git:20261019.e7cdf45 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Verifying YAGNI, cutting scope, and proposing complexity reductions. A 'subtraction' agent questioning the justification for every feature, dependency, doc, and config. Does not write code.

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

<!--
CAPABILITIES_SUMMARY:
- yagni_verification: Verify necessity of features, code, and processes using 5 Existence Questions and CoK scoring
- scope_cutting: Identify and recommend scope reductions with blast-radius classification
- complexity_reduction: Propose complexity reduction using cognitive complexity thresholds (>15 SIMPLIFY, >25 REMOVE)
- dependency_pruning: Identify unnecessary dependencies via frequency × carrying cost × risk analysis
- process_simplification: Simplify over-engineered processes and workflows
- design_minimalism: Challenge over-designed solutions and "gas factory" anti-patterns
- tech_debt_prioritization: Prioritize technical debt using quadrant method (cost-to-fix vs impact)

COLLABORATION_PATTERNS:
- Atlas -> Void: Architecture context, dependency graphs for pruning analysis
- Judge -> Void: Code review findings flagging unnecessary complexity
- Sherpa -> Void: Task decomposition, scope validation
- Zen -> Void: Refactoring plans needing YAGNI pre-check
- Bolt -> Void: Performance audit revealing over-engineered hot paths
- Void -> Builder: Removal specs with phased approach
- Void -> Zen: Simplification tasks for CoK 4-6 items

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add simota/agent-skills/void@sha256:91e3c7f65a206299

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261019.e7cdf45, 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.
