Read relationship signals across a conversation, infer what changed between turns, then turn awkward, overly formal, blunt, or AI-sounding messages to teachers, leaders, mentors, senior colleagues, partners, acquaintances, or potential professional contacts into short, natural, relationship-aware communication. Use for tactful praise, upward communication, progress updates, favors, reminders, apologies, disagreement, gift and courtesy messages, proxy greetings, holiday wishes, warm friend-like…

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

# Social Signal and Tact

Read the relationship before writing the sentence.

## Core idea

Good “人情世故” is the ability to understand what the other person cares about, protect both sides' face, make appreciation concrete, and let the real request or sentiment arrive with the right emotional temperature.

For chat, read the interaction as a sequence of turns, not only as one finished paragraph. Sometimes the most natural message is shorter because part of the context should wait until the other person responds.

The skill should solve two tasks in order: first determine what the other person's words changed in the relationship; then decide how much of that change to acknowledge in the next message. Do not draft before the signal reading is clear.

## Read signals before drafting

For any conversation with meaningful relationship stakes, silently reconstruct the interaction using these fields:

1. **Literal content** — what was explicitly said or requested.
2. **Relational move** — praise, trust, role assignment, face-saving, invitation, disclosure, endorsement, obligation, testing, distancing, or a concrete offer.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add fairy123456789/human-edge-agent-skills/social-signal-and-tact@sha256:83c0d99e9c6e5e7b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261012.c132846, 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.
