poka-yoke SKILL.md skillA
poka-yoke from kuya-egg/monozukuri is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Prevent software mistakes through strong boundaries, safe defaults, meaningful tests, and mechanically enforced invariants. Use for TDD, validation, schemas, authorization, edge cases, regression coverage, or reliability-sensitive behavior.
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
# Poka-yoke Poka-yoke means mistake-proofing. In software, do not rely only on memory or discipline when types, schemas, constraints, validation, tests, or safe defaults can prevent an invalid state. This is a Japanese-inspired engineering metaphor, applied with context rather than maximal defensive code. ## Use this skill when - adding or changing behavior at an input, API, database, or permission boundary; - designing tests or working test-first; - fixing a regression or recurring failure; - handling untrusted data, retries, concurrency, migrations, or external services; - deciding whether a bad state should be representable; or - reliability and safety matter more than a happy-path demo. ## Outcome Produce a behavior that is difficult to misuse and easy to verify, with: - explicit invariants and boundary conditions; - validation at the correct boundary; - types, schemas, constraints, or exhaustive cases where they reduce risk; - deterministic tests for normal, edge, failure, and authorization behavior; - safe defaults, idempotency, and clear error handling where relevant; and - evidence that the protection catches the intended mistake. ## Workflow …

How to install
mdr add kuya-egg/monozukuri/poka-yoke@sha256:023944b4f1640209The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260909.6197cfc, 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.
