call-sycophancy-guard skillA
call-sycophancy-guard is agent-read markdown (skill) from calle-ai/awesome-phone-call-agents: Offline experimental CALL-E transcript helper that detects pushback against goal-grounded facts and classifies the agent's response (HOLDS, CAPITULATES, VERIFIES, UNADDRESSED), flags capitulated values that tainted the final confirmation, and crafts anti-capitulation goals. It is not a measure of the agent's intent, proof the callee was wrong, or authorization to act on the call's outcome..
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
# call-sycophancy-guard > **An agent that agrees with everything confirms nothing.** Language models are demonstrably sycophantic: trained on human feedback, they affirm users far more often than humans do, and that behavior survives into deployed assistants. On a phone call this has a specific cost: the callee pushes back on a fact - "no, it's $50" - and the agent folds, not because it saw evidence, but because agreeing is polite. The closing confirmation then repeats the adopted value, and whatever parses that outcome writes a fact nobody established. This skill catches exactly that sequence. ## When To Use - after any CALL-E call whose result contains amounts, dates, or times the callee disputed, and before the outcome is written anywhere - with the goal text (or plan JSON) the call was built from, so ground facts can be extracted and checked against adopted values - before placing a fact-bearing call, to craft a goal that holds facts without being rude ## When Not To Use - to prove the callee was wrong: a capitulation is an unverified stance switch, and the callee holding a paper invoice may well be right; the card routes to verification, never to reversal …
