timebox skillA

timebox is agent-read markdown (skill) from transcendr/slopware-skills: Run an authorized task inside an Available Work Time (AWT) window with a shorter Closeout Grace Period (CGP), fixed deadlines, forecast checks, proportional convergence points, and a hard stop. Use when the user explicitly requests timeboxing, supplies an AWT/CGP pair, says AWT or CGP, or an applicable project policy requires the protocol. Do not invent durations or activate timeboxing merely because a task may take time..

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

# Timebox: AWT/CGP Execution

Timeboxing is an outer time and convergence envelope around authorized work. It
does not add scope or replace the task's acceptance criteria.

AWT is the primary Available Work Time. Plan substantive work, verification,
organization, and delivery inside it. CGP is a shorter Closeout Grace Period
for an already-converged deliverable, an unexpectedly delayed final check,
narrow closeout organization, or communicating the result. CGP is never a
second work window.

## Activate only with authority

Use this protocol only when one of these conditions supplies authority:

- The requester explicitly asks for timeboxing.
- The requester supplies an AWT/CGP pair or names AWT or CGP.
- An applicable project policy requires the protocol.

Never infer a timebox from task size, urgency, or an estimate. Never invent a
duration.

## Establish the fixed clock

Accept any unambiguous duration units. Validate the supplied pair before doing
timeboxed work:

- `AWT > 0`
- `0 <= CGP < AWT`
- CGP is materially shorter than AWT and sized for closeout, not ordinary work.

When the context already establishes AWT/CGP, interpret shorthand such as
…
