pairing SKILL.md skillA

pairing from testdouble/han is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add testdouble/han/pairing@git:20260911.f7c75b2

Pins git:20260911.f7c75b2 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Build work collaboratively in reviewable pieces, handing each piece back for review before starting the next, so the person stays in the lead and steers while the work happens instead of reviewing a finished result. Use when someone says to pair with them on something, asks to collaborate rather than direct, wants to review as it goes, or wants to guide the work piece by piece — on code, on a design decision, or on writing. For a test-first build it runs tdd, for restructuring it runs…

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

## Project Context

- personal config directory: !`bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/han-config-dir.sh" 2>/dev/null || echo "$HOME/.claude"`
- project .han/config.md: !`cat .han/config.md 2>/dev/null || echo ""`
- CLAUDE.md: !`find . -maxdepth 1 -name "CLAUDE.md" -type f`

As your first action, use the Read tool on `.han/config.md` inside the `personal config directory` path above. A read
that returns no file is no personal configuration: continue silently. When that file or the `project .han/config.md`
probe supplies content, apply it per [config-rule.md](../../references/config-rule.md), which governs precedence
between the two files, relative-path resolution, and what to do with a file that reads but cannot be used.

## The contract this skill runs on

Read [collaborative-stop-rule.md](../../references/collaborative-stop-rule.md) before Step 4. It defines what a stop
presents, when the pre-build ask fires, what makes a choice expensive to walk back, and what to do with the answer. The
skills this one hands work to follow the same file, which is what makes a stop feel the same whoever performed it.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add testdouble/han/pairing@sha256:193edce95010aadd

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260911.f7c75b2, 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.
