Safely leave Citadel using the active adoption receipt. Produces a no-write, reviewable plan, preserves a portable archive, removes only exact owned material, and reports modified or externally registered surfaces as retained or unknown. Legacy installs must be imported before exact leave is claimed.
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
# /unharness - Receipt-owned exit from Citadel
## Orientation
Use this skill when the user wants Citadel removed from a project. Exit is a
two-step, receipt-owned operation. A plan never mutates the project. Apply
requires the exact saved plan and its confirmation token.
Do not infer ownership from familiar paths. Do not delete `.planning/`,
`.citadel/`, runtime settings, hooks, skills, or registrations merely because
they look Citadel-related.
## Protocol
### 1. Locate Citadel and inspect adoption authority
Read `.citadel/plugin-root.txt` when present. Otherwise use the directory
containing this skill. Check for `.citadel/adoption/active.json`; the adoption
planner also checks the private recovery ledger.
### 2. Create a no-write leave plan
Choose a plan path inside the project, such as
`.planning/adoption/leave.plan.json`, and run:
```bash
node {citadelRoot}/scripts/adopt.js leave plan \
--target {projectRoot} \
--out {planPath} \
--json
```
Show the user:
- exact files that will be removed or restored;
- modified or ambiguous footprint entries that will be retained;
- portable archive path;
- runtime registrations whose removal evidence is `unknown`;
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add sethgammon/citadel/unharness@sha256:974d435ec086d036The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260731.4d793e6, 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.
