kilo-kit-core SKILL.md skillA
kilo-kit-core from vodailocz/kilo-kit-mcp is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add vodailocz/kilo-kit-mcp/kilo-kit-core@v1.0.0Pins v1.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Core Kilo-Kit skill enforcing Hard-Gate and Iron Law principles. Ensures AI agents scan the system and codebase before proposing solutions. Keywords: hard-gate, iron-law, evidence, scan, verify, system-check, codebase.
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
# 🛡️ Kilo-Kit Core Skill — Hard-Gate & Iron Law
> **Philosophy:** "Evidence over Guessing" — No agent action without verified evidence.
## When to Use
Use this skill when:
- Starting **any** new task or user request
- Proposing architectural or code changes
- Diagnosing bugs or performance issues
- Making decisions that affect production systems
**Do NOT use this skill when:**
- Answering simple factual questions from memory
- Formatting or styling-only changes with no logic impact
---
## Prerequisites
Before using this skill, ensure:
- [ ] Access to the project codebase is available
- [ ] System resource checks can be performed (disk, memory, processes)
- [ ] Relevant logs or error outputs are accessible
---
## ⛔ HARD-GATE — Mandatory System Scan
> **Rule:** The AI agent **MUST** scan the system and codebase **before** proposing any solution.
> Failure to pass the Hard-Gate means the agent **cannot proceed** to execution.
### Hard-Gate Checklist
```yaml
hard_gate:
system_scan:
- [ ] Check available disk space
- [ ] Check running processes and resource usage
- [ ] Verify runtime versions (Node, Python, .NET, etc.)

How to install
mdr add vodailocz/kilo-kit-mcp/kilo-kit-core@sha256:82576cc953a7e14dThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
