confidence-check SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

confidence-check from byerlikaya/claude-starter-kit is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add byerlikaya/claude-starter-kit/confidence-check@git:20260925.68939f0

Pins git:20260925.68939f0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Readiness gate BEFORE writing implementation code: does this already exist, does it fit the project's architecture, is the API claim actually checked, is there a working reference, is the root cause known.

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

# Confidence Check — earn the right to start

<!-- routing-eval reads the next line; why it sits in the body: AGENT_TEMPLATE.md -->
Trigger phrases: "confidence check", "ready to implement", "before I start", "am I sure enough", "readiness"

## When
Right before implementation code gets written for anything beyond a one-line change, and *after* the scope is
clear ([[spec-planning]] / planner). Every other gate in Crewforth fires at the end — review, DoD, the commit
approval. Those catch bad code. None of them catch **good code that should never have been written**: the
duplicate of a helper that already exists, the pattern that fights the project's architecture, the call built
against an API that behaves differently than remembered. That waste is invisible to a reviewer, because what
they see is a clean diff.

## The six checks
Each is answered with **evidence**, not with a feeling. Name what you ran or read.

| # | Check | How it is actually answered |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | **Does it already exist?** | Grep/Glob the codebase for the behaviour *and* its likely other names. A near-duplicate counts. |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add byerlikaya/claude-starter-kit/confidence-check@sha256:32f0d5d3fd5d44ab

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260925.68939f0, 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.
