ken-help skillA
ken-help is agent-read markdown (skill) from rajnandan1/ken: Quick-reference card for all ken modes, skills, and commands. One-shot display, not a persistent mode. Trigger: /ken-help, "ken help", "what ken commands", "how do I use ken"..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Ken Help Display this reference card when invoked. One-shot, do NOT change mode, write flag files, or persist anything. ## Levels | Level | Trigger | What changes | | --------- | ------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Lite** | `/ken lite` | Build what's asked, name the Thompson move (the rewrite, the brute-force cut) in one line. | | **Full** | `/ken` | The loop enforced: think first → steal → bottom-up → brute force → try it → throw it out. Default. | | **Ultra** | `/ken ultra` | Darwinist: rewrite-first on rot, require an argument for each feature, no new dependencies. | Level sticks until changed or session end. ## Skills | Skill | Trigger | What it does | | -------------- | ------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **ken** | `/ken` | Thompson mode itself. Think, steal, build bottom-up, brute force, rewrite. | …
