challenge-assumption SKILL.md skillA
challenge-assumption from yogsoth-ai/de-anthropocentric-research-engine is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Construct a strong countercase or alternative to an assumption and assess consequence if it fails.
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
# challenge-assumption ## Purpose Construct a strong countercase or alternative to an assumption and assess the consequence if it fails. ## Input contract ```yaml required: [assumption, claim_or_decision, supporting_evidence] optional: [alternative_worlds, dependency_graph, challenge_mode] constraints: [separate assumption, countercase, evidence, and impact] ``` ## Procedure 1. State the assumption's role and dependencies in the target claim. 2. Build the strongest evidence-backed countercase and at least one alternative assumption. 3. Propagate consequences through dependent claims and identify discriminating observations. 4. Rate threat severity and confidence using the caller's scale. ## Output contract ```yaml produces: [countercase, alternative_assumptions, consequence_analysis, discriminating_tests] delta_fields: [findings, evidence_updates, uncertainties, recommended_jumps] ``` ## Quality gates - Countercase attacks the assumption's strongest support, not a weak proxy. - At least one alternative assumption and one impact path are explicit. - Confidence distinguishes empirical threat from theoretical possibility. ## Parameterization …

How to install
mdr add yogsoth-ai/de-anthropocentric-research-engine/challenge-assumption@sha256:914b0492f54e2109The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260923.cbc38aa, 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.
