ask-tim SKILL.md skillA
This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.
ask-tim from hybridlabor-api/bdb-dev-optimized-agent-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add hybridlabor-api/bdb-dev-optimized-agent-skills/ask-tim@git:20261104.cacdbccPins git:20261104.cacdbcc in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Route to the right AOS skill or flow for a task. Use when unsure where to start, to find a skill, or when choosing between overlapping skills.
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
<!-- The flow map below is derived from mattpocock/skills' ask-matt (MIT, see
THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md). The route is AOS's own: most stations on
upstream's main flow have no AOS equivalent, so copying it verbatim would
have produced a router pointing at skills that do not exist. -->
# `ask-tim`: which way do I go?
You don't remember every skill, so ask. This does no work itself. To look up a skill by name or topic, use `find-skill` (`aos store search <words>`); come back here when several look alike.
Two layers, answering different questions. **The flow map** answers *"which way?"* — the route work travels from an idea to something shipped, and which branch to take at each fork. **The catalogue** below it answers *"which skill?"* — grouped by domain, with overlap guidance for the cases where several look alike. Start with the flow; drop to the catalogue when you already know roughly where you are.

How to install
mdr add hybridlabor-api/bdb-dev-optimized-agent-skills/ask-tim@sha256:5f3a3314d8318bafThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261104.cacdbcc, 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.
