allowed-stack-guardrail skillA

allowed-stack-guardrail is agent-read markdown (skill) from devantler-tech/agent-skills: Before agreeing to build anything for a non-technical user, check the need against the consuming deployment's "## Stack map" section: in-stack needs proceed; out-of-stack or unmatched needs get a friendly, jargon-free decline plus an offer to file a well-formed issue on the block's owning repo (or the map's default intake repo). Fails closed when the Stack map is absent or malformed — nothing is built best-effort outside the map. Use in a vibe-coding setting whenever a build request is about to .

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# Allowed-stack guardrail

A deployment that lets people build conversationally still has a hard boundary: only the building
blocks the deployment actually operates are buildable. This skill is that boundary check. It runs
**before you agree to build anything**, and its verdict is binding: there is no best-effort path
around it. Declines are delivered in the register of the `jargon-free-voice` skill.

## The Stack map contract

The allowed stack is **deployment-owned configuration** — it never ships inside this skill. The
consuming deployment's canonical instructions file (`AGENTS.md`) defines it in a section titled
exactly **`## Stack map`**, containing:

- **A table** whose rows each carry three required fields:
  - **Building block** — the block's plain-language name;
  - **Good for** — the needs it serves, written in the user's vocabulary (this is the matching
    surface);
  - **Owning repo** — `owner/repo`, where a suggested issue for that block is filed.
- **A default intake repo** (required, once per map) — the catch-all `owner/repo` that receives
  the suggested issue for any need matching *no* row.
