The World — Ask the-world-skills maintainers for help by filing a GitHub issue they can act on without asking back. Built for people who are not developers — they say what they wanted and what happened, in their own words; the agent fills in the rest from the session and the harness (plugin version, OS, runtime, install profile, the world's characters, triggers and tools, git state, recent logs), redacted by a bundled script, in the repository's own issue form. Walks the user through…

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

# /help-my-world — ask the maintainers for help

After the `start` skill builds it, every world is different: its own characters, jobs, tools, and
schedule. The person asking for help is often not a developer and should not have to
become one to be helped. So the user says what happened in their words, and you do the
rest: the maintainer who reads the issue was not here, and gets everything they would
otherwise have to ask for.

Talk to the user in their language and in plain words. Never ask them for "steps to
reproduce", "expected behavior", a version, or a log: you find those. Write the answers
in the issue in their language; the headings come from the repository's form, so every
issue scans the same way.

## 1. What happened

Ask one question, unless the session already answers it: **what were you trying to do,
and what happened instead?** A screenshot, a copied bot reply, or "it just stopped" are
all fine answers.

Then work out the rest yourself, from this session and the harness: the command or
message that started it, the step it stopped at, the exact error text or bot reply,
whether it happens again, what was already tried. Say in one line what you took from the
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add afinit-com/the-world-skills/help-my-world@sha256:915cb3778f4a2d3d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261020.ce02bd3, 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.
