'Use when an IDE agent (Cursor, Codex, Claude Code) is operating inside.
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
# Conscientious Objector — the BACKS harness watchdog
This is the AIOS-pack load-side surface. The full implementation lives in the
BACKS runtime at `skills/conscientious-objector/SKILL.md` and
`backend/services/conscientious_objector.py` — load it from there when this
session is running inside the BACKS repo.
## When the CO is the right organ
Any agent building with BACKSAIOS in an IDE — Cursor, Codex, or Claude Code —
needs a watchdog that:
- Refuses to side with the agent when the harness is bypassed.
- Detects harness bypass in real time (real probes, not hardcoded rules).
- Flips the build RED and strips tools from the watched agent on a real finding.
- Locks its own shape against silent change (sentry).
That watchdog is the Conscientious Objector. Attach it; do not bypass it.
## The four kill switches the operator can fire (on-site, no Telegram required)
1. **Surface file flip** — write `{"override": true}` to
`backend/state/co/operator_override.json`.
2. **IDE / chat SHA code** — type `CO-OVERRIDE: <64-hex-sha>` in the chat.
3. **Local env token** — set `CO_OPERATOR_LOCAL_TOKEN` in `.env` to the
operator-issued token (60-second window).

How to install
mdr add tcuzzo/backs-aios-skills/conscientious-objector@sha256:ec5b777c4d326e73The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261103.20d8c20, 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.
