grill-for-unknowns skillA

grill-for-unknowns is agent-read markdown (skill) from asymmetric-al/core: Use only when the user explicitly invokes grill-for-unknowns or asks for a map-vs-territory unknowns pass, blindspot discovery, unknown-known prototypes, or a subagent launch packet before implementation..

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

# Docs + Unknowns Grill

<!-- CORE-OVERLAY-START -->

## This repository (Asymmetric-al/core)

Core uses this as the high-rigor, evidence-grounded unknown-discovery route.
It is not a replacement for every plan, ordinary implementation work, or the
lighter `grilling`, `grill-me`, and `grill-with-docs` flows. Root `AGENTS.md`,
OpenSpec, repo-local rulebooks, and current source evidence remain
authoritative when bundled examples or generic paths disagree. The preserved
Hermes `related_skills` metadata is upstream discovery metadata, not a Core
runtime dependency; this skill remains self-contained.

### Triggers

- The user explicitly invokes `grill-for-unknowns`.
- The user requests a map-vs-territory pass, unknown-unknown or blindspot
  discovery, contrasting prototypes to expose unknown knowns, or a launch
  packet for a long-running agent/subagent.

Do not auto-route this skill merely because a task is complex. Use `grilling`
for an ordinary plan stress test, `grill-with-docs` for the normal repo-backed
grill plus domain-model maintenance, `grill-me` for a stateless interview, and
`wayfinder` when the work is too large for one context window.

### Workflow

How to install

Latest version
mdr add asymmetric-al/core/grill-for-unknowns@v0.1.1
Exact content
mdr add asymmetric-al/core/grill-for-unknowns@sha256:0a380654e7c0afc5

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
