principle-laziness-protocol from theonlyfusioncube/potetos-for-everyone is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
Bias toward deletion and the smallest change that fully solves the problem. Use when considering adding code, abstractions, dependencies, or speculative features.
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
# Laziness Protocol
## Trigger
When considering adding code, abstractions, dependencies, or speculative features.
## Rule
Bias toward deletion and the smallest change that fully solves the problem.
## Application
1. Name the concrete decision this principle changes.
2. Apply the rule to that decision, not as a decorative citation.
3. Prefer evidence from the current repository/runtime over generic preference.
4. If the principle conflicts with an explicit user constraint, keep the constraint and state the tradeoff.
The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260908.f096f61, 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.
