assistive-ux SKILL.md skillA

assistive-ux from block/berd is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add block/berd/assistive-ux@git:20260812.9b88cac

Pins git:20260812.9b88cac in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when adding, reviewing, designing, testing, or managing Assistive UX moments in Berd, including discover, suggest, and autoApply guidance, adaptive settings, behavior signals, retirement rules, or changes under src/shared/assistive-ux.

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

# Assistive UX

Use this skill for Berd product intelligence moments that teach,
suggest, or adapt settings based on user behavior.

Before changing code, read `docs/assistive-ux.md`. Treat that doc as the source
of product intent and architecture.

## Core Rule

Keep assistive state separate from user settings:

```text
User settings answer: what should the product do?
Assistive UX answers: what has the app shown, observed, accepted, retired, or applied?
```

Do not store guidance lifecycle state inside a feature setting. Do not use
assistive state as the source of truth for product behavior.

## Types

- `discover`: teaches that a control, setting, or capability exists. It should
  not change settings.
- `suggest`: notices a repeated behavior and asks before changing a setting.
- `autoApply`: changes a reversible local setting only after strong evidence,
  then explains the change and offers undo.

Use `autoApply` conservatively. Never auto-apply changes involving secrets,
credentials, permissions, destructive actions, provider setup, billing-like
behavior, or hard-to-reverse choices.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add block/berd/assistive-ux@sha256:6c0ce3077f432969

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260812.9b88cac, 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.
