Activate when: user says 'how you say it matters', 'they're spinning the numbers', 'same data but sounds different', 'is this just framing?', wants to write a persuasive message, suspects a statistic is one-sided, or is evaluating options where the language feels loaded. Do NOT activate when: the different descriptions convey genuinely non-equivalent information (one frame omits real facts); the decision is trivial and multi-frame analysis exceeds the stakes.

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
# Framing Effect
## Overview
The **framing effect**: logically equivalent descriptions of the same decision produce different choices depending on whether outcomes are cast as gains or losses. Frame determines whether the brain enters gain-mode or loss-mode; the choice follows from the mode.
Three types: **risky-choice** (gain vs. loss on probabilities), **attribute** ("95% fat free" vs. "5% fat"), **goal** ("do X to gain Y" vs. "skip X, lose Y"). Real frames often compound all three.
Corrective: force both framings. If the decision is stable across frames, the frame is not driving it. If it flips, inspect why.
Composes with [`loss-aversion-prospect-theory`](../loss-aversion-prospect-theory/SKILL.md), [`anchoring`](../anchoring/SKILL.md), [`pricing-strategy`](../pricing-strategy/SKILL.md), [`signaling-games`](../signaling-games/SKILL.md), [`critical-thinking`](../critical-thinking/SKILL.md).
## When to Use
- Decision presented with strong gain-only or loss-only language
- Statistic shown in one form only (survival rate without mortality, or vice versa)
- Evaluating persuasive communication: ad, political message, medical recommendation, pitch

How to install
mdr add deciqai/knowledge-skills/framing-effect@sha256:b88f902d13af80f6The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261025.cb4e537, 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.
