Use for /pickle-mode, "pickle mode", or any task pstack's poteto-mode would take (multi-file changes, design choices, bugs with unknown cause, perf). Runs poteto-mode with Josh's gates and playbook overlays on top.
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
# Pickle mode A thin layer over pstack's `poteto-mode`. poteto-mode owns the principles, triggers, autonomy, subagent rules, reply rules, and playbook catalog. This file only adds what differs. Do not restate poteto-mode here. ## Requirements Invoke `pstack:poteto-mode` through the Skill tool before anything else. If it is not installed, stop and tell the user to install `pstack@pstack-claude` (https://github.com/michael-denyer/pstack-claude). ## Precedence On conflict, the first match wins: 1. The user's own instructions (their messages, user-level CLAUDE.md). 2. The instructions of the repository you are working in (its CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md, and its `.agents/playbooks/` overlays). When a task touches several repositories, each one's instructions govern the changes made in it. 3. The pickle-mode gates and overlays below. 4. poteto-mode. Repository standards outrank pickle-mode on purpose. Git workflow, commit style, and review process belong to the repo. ## Playbook overlays After you match a poteto-mode playbook and copy its steps into the todolist, apply overlays in this order, each on top of the last: …

How to install
mdr add technicalpickles/pickled-claude-plugins/pickle-mode@sha256:a24f1e2a9d6c849cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261103.6baeec3, 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.
