Domain-grounded judgment for creation: code, visuals, documents, design, data artifacts, and other output where quality depends on choosing what not to include. Use this skill when the user wants something to feel authored rather than generated, when the brief says a draft feels off, when polish alone is insufficient, or when the deliverable is externally visible and the quality bar is shaped by practitioner norms. Triggers on requests like 'use taste', 'apply taste', 'make this good'…
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
# Taste Taste is domain-grounded judgment applied during creation. It is not a polish pass and not a slop-removal checklist. It is the difference between output that is merely competent and output that reflects an actual understanding of what practitioners in a field consider good. The failure mode this skill corrects is straightforward: agents produce work that is technically complete but obviously generated. The information may be correct, but the judgment is absent. Equal weight goes to unequal ideas. Structure appears because templates exist, not because the content needs it. Details stay in because they were available, not because they matter. This skill fixes that by requiring you to understand the domain before you touch the work. ## Grounding Requirement Before creating anything, establish a domain model. The depth required depends on how far the domain is from your reliable knowledge. If you know the domain cold: - State the assumptions behind the quality bar and move. - Do not perform research theater. If you know the domain but not the current state: - Research first. - Look at current exemplars, docs, or conventions. …

How to install
mdr add szoloth/skill-pack/taste@sha256:e10aef580d7a5fb7The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, 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.
