ask-constraints skillA
ask-constraints is agent-read markdown (skill) from yogsoth-ai/de-anthropocentric-research-engine: Understand hard boundaries on the user's research — target venues, methodology.
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
# Ask Constraints Identify non-negotiable constraints. ## Execution Dialogue — inline, no subagent. ## What to Ask About (one at a time) - Target venue/journal (if any) - Methodology preferences (empirical? theoretical? both?) - Areas to explicitly avoid - Advisor/team hard requirements - Ethical/legal constraints ## Key Behavior Not limited to ML/AI. Works for any research domain. Some users have no constraints — that's a valid answer. ## Output Constraints section of ActorProfile.

mdr add yogsoth-ai/de-anthropocentric-research-engine/ask-constraints@git:20260615.7a62936mdr add yogsoth-ai/de-anthropocentric-research-engine/ask-constraints@sha256:f6b0a0b9a48d9fcdPin 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.
