Elicit user preferences and resolve material ambiguity before a long autonomous run. Use when the user invokes $align-me or /align-me, or asks to be interviewed, grilled, aligned, or given a batch of decisions before implementation, migration, deployment, design, or other consequential work.
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
# Align Me Pause before the long autonomous run and surface the choices that could materially change the outcome. **Output contract:** The deliverable is a self-contained questionnaire in the final answer: every numbered question, every lettered option with its consequence, and every recommendation. A tool call or a summary of decisions is not the deliverable. ## Prepare 1. Inspect available context and perform lightweight, read-only discovery first. 2. Do not ask for facts that can be discovered safely or decisions whose answer would not affect the work. 3. Identify ambiguities involving scope, product behavior, destructive changes, architecture, migration, rollout, safety, cost, or verification. ## Ask the batch Give one batch of 2–10 numbered questions. For every question: - State the decision plainly. - Provide a few mutually exclusive lettered options, normally 2–4. - Explain the concrete tradeoff or consequence of each option. - End with a reasonable recommendation and briefly explain why. …

How to install
mdr add swyxio/skills/align-me@sha256:3d1c1cbe7e872a86The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260928.efe5ce6, 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.
