Explain, turn on or off, or switch the mode of the always-on prompt refiner (rewrites each prompt into a brief, asks about ambiguous points, hands the brief to subagents). Use when the user asks about the refiner or wants it on, off, quieter, or silent.
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
# Prompt refiner
Request: `$ARGUMENTS`. Plugin root: `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}`. Use the substituted absolute path in commands
(the Bash tool does not receive `CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT` as an environment variable).
The refiner works without this skill: a `UserPromptSubmit` hook adds an instruction to each prompt. Claude then
rewrites the prompt into a brief (Goal, Deliverables, Inputs, Constraints, Acceptance checks, Assumptions, Open
points), asks about material open points with AskUserQuestion (2-4 options each), saves the brief to
`.briefs/<timestamp>-<slug>.md` (git-ignored) in the project, and passes the brief to every subagent or side session.
It stays silent for slash commands, harness notices, replies under 4 words, and answers to a question Claude just
asked. Long or structured prompts get a one-line restatement instead of a full brief.
Map the request to one command, run it, and report the printed status line:
| Request | Command |
|---|---|
| status, "is it on?" | `py "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/refiner.py" status` |
| turn on | `py "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/refiner.py" on` |
| turn off | `py "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/refiner.py" off` |

How to install
mdr add ahmadhammoud56/moaa/prompt-refiner@sha256:f41070f57ec7533bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261025.922d1c7, 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.
