Check how SkipHow actually behaved in a real session, using the owner's own transcripts. Use when asked why a run misbehaved, whether a plugin version works, where the time or tokens went, or to turn something observed in real use into a change to the shipped skill, weighed against how comparable projects solve it. For developing SkipHow in this repository only.

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

# Dogfood

SkipHow changes from what goes wrong in real use, not from redesign. This skill looks at a real session and
works out what the package told the run to do, what the run actually did, and whether the evidence supports
blaming the package.

It is a contributor tool and does not ship. Do not invoke the `skiphow` skill to do this work: the package
here is the thing under test, not the authority.

## Find the session

The owner normally pastes a piece of text from the session they mean. Search the transcripts for that text and
work from the file it appears in.

Transcripts are JSONL, one file per session, under the host's own projects directory in the user's home. A
session's subagents are separate files beside it. Inspect the current record shape before relying on it:
field names and layout change between host versions, so read what is actually there rather than assuming last
month's structure.

Ordinary search plus a few lines of Python is the whole toolchain. Finding the session is one `grep`; reading
it, and adding up time and tokens per subagent, is a short script written on the spot. Do not build a standing
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mzored/skiphow/dogfood@sha256:e8fdc3ebe939845e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.fb1aafa, 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.
