Use when agent context is bloated or contradictory.
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
# Context audit
A prompt is written for one task; context is reused across every task, so it can never be as specific. That gap is where instructions rot: rules written for a worst case that no longer happens, guidance duplicated across three layers, two layers quietly telling the model opposite things. The model can resolve all of it — by spending thinking budget on it before it starts your actual work. This skill finds what to delete.
## Steps
1. Inventory every layer that reaches the model: root and nested `CLAUDE.md`/`AGENTS.md`, each skill's description and body, hooks, tool and MCP server descriptions, and any harness prompt the user controls. Report each layer's size. The layer the user forgot they wrote is usually the loudest one.
2. Read them together, the way the model receives them — not one file at a time. Contradictions only exist between layers.
3. Classify every instruction as one of five things:
- **Conflict** — two layers pulling opposite ways ("document as appropriate" against "never add comments"). Quote both sides verbatim. These are the most expensive finding and go first.

How to install
mdr add jpeetz/agent-skills/context-audit@sha256:afea6f7dc9c5c0c6The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
