prowl-ui SKILL.md skillA

prowl-ui from onevcat/prowl is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add onevcat/prowl/prowl-ui@git:20260802.b6da364

Pins git:20260802.b6da364 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Explicitly inspect, operate, and iteratively improve the native Prowl Debug UI verification surface with agent-ctrl on macOS. Use only when the user asks to verify or drive Prowl UI behavior, especially Settings, sheets, menus, popovers, view switching, repository selection, and Active Agents. When a run exposes a high-confidence Prowl accessibility metadata gap, make a narrow repair and report the before-and-after evidence; report lower-confidence or backend limitations without speculative…

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

# Prowl UI

## Scope

Use `agent-ctrl` as the semantic macOS UI surface for an exact Prowl Debug process. Keep the workflow exploratory: choose
the shortest interaction that proves the declared behavior, while applying the Prowl-specific constraints below.

This skill is explicit-only. Do not run it merely because Prowl code changed. When called from `self-verify-prowl`, run the
preflight before loading this file so a missing tool or permission becomes a cheap `SKIPPED` result.

Split responsibility by surface:

- Use `prowl-cli` for repositories and worktrees as data, tabs, panes, terminal input and output, task state, and agent
  sessions. Read its skill before writing commands.
- Use `agent-ctrl` for native windows, Settings, sheets, menus, popovers, sidebar disclosure, and other AppKit or SwiftUI
  controls.
- Use a PID-scoped screenshot only for visual assertions such as selection appearance, geometry, clipping, or hierarchy.

Do not use Accessibility to type into Ghostty terminal surfaces or infer terminal state from pixels.

## Preflight Without Prompting

Run the bundled script before opening an AX session:

```bash
.claude/skills/prowl-ui/scripts/preflight.sh
```
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add onevcat/prowl/prowl-ui@sha256:a6914bb52dd68ad1

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260802.b6da364, 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.
