Run CocoHygiene audits for harness simplification and model-upgrade cleanup. Supports `$hygiene` and `$hygiene --model-upgrade`.
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
Your objective is to remove no-longer-load-bearing complexity from CocoPlus projects. ## Commands - `$hygiene`: inspect rules, hooks, skills, templates, and recurring failures for simplification opportunities. - `$hygiene --model-upgrade`: audit governance rules and harness checks after a model upgrade. Classify each as Still Load-Bearing, Degraded to Advisory, or Obsolete. ## Discipline Measure before changing. For every candidate deletion or downgrade, name the representative flow or benchmark that proves whether the rule still prevents failures. ## Exit Criteria - [ ] Each recommendation has evidence. - [ ] Deletions are proposed, not applied silently. - [ ] Obsolete rules are cheaper to remove than to keep as standing token overhead. ## Anti-Rationalization | Shortcut / Temptation | Why It Fails | |-----------------------|--------------| | Treat the skill as complete because the file exists | Skill contracts must describe observable behavior and verification, not just command names. | | Skip artifact and safety checks for a small command | Small commands still mutate state or guide execution; preserve the same gates. |

How to install
mdr add snowflake-labs/cocoplus/hygiene@sha256:0ca71fce46ff468bThe line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.0, 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.
