Use when a request is long, bundled, high-stakes, or has ambiguous referents. Not for tiered scans: use askme. Not for interviews: use askme.
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
# Instruction understanding gate Verify understanding before acting. ## Contract | Field | Bound contract | |---|---| | Trigger | Long/bundled/high-stakes/hard-to-undo instruction, or ambiguous scope/referents (this, that, it, whatever is cleaner) | | Authority | Reversible local: writes at most one durable understood-as log line for substantial work, after the gate decision; rollback is revert to pre-check state. No remote mutation. | | Side effect | None before the gate passes; at most one clarifying question and one durable understood-as log line for substantial work | | Done | Restatement is a paraphrase; every surfaced fork is genuinely unresolved by available context; no substantial work starts otherwise | ## Inputs The user's instruction and all readable context: the current message, session history, project memory files, filesystem, and established project conventions. The model obtains these inputs; the user does not need to provide an artifact. ## Procedure …

How to install
mdr add outlinedriven/odin-claude-plugin/instruction-understanding-gate@sha256:09b4bbf36febd4b9The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260905.973176a, 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.
