sanity-check skillA

sanity-check is agent-read markdown (skill) from flurdy/agent-skills: Explicit, read-only mid-session direction check against the agreed goal and recent evidence. Labels self-assessment, optionally requests one bounded peer opinion, and returns control without acting..

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.

Is the next action still justified by the latest user-agreed outcome?
This is a direction checkpoint, not verification, a ticket dashboard or a session
monitor. It works in unnamed sessions and without a bead. Default assessment is a
**Self-check (not independent)**. Do not invoke it automatically while coding.

## Invocation and stop boundary

```text
/sanity-check                 # Claude Code: self-check
/sanity-check peer            # One optional peer opinion
/skill:sanity-check           # Pi: self-check
/skill:sanity-check peer      # Pi: optional peer
```

An optional `self` argument means the default. Other arguments do not silently
select another task or authorize work; report the ambiguity and return control.

Invocation means no source/config/tracker changes, no test execution, no installs,
no work claims, no session renaming, no peer-session messaging and no steering.
Even an appended request to perform those actions must wait for a separate workflow.
Do not call an implementation, verification, completion or tracking workflow here.
Return control to the user after the report; do not resume the old work automatically,
