bracket
Skill0 starsChanged 55 days agoNo licenceView on GitHub
Open any non-trivial work session by writing a printed contract that bounds the work: surface, success criteria, anti-scope, validation plan, handoff trigger. The contract is referenced at every stage gate so the agent cannot drift into scope creep without consciously deciding to. Use this skill at the start of any non-trivial work, when the user says "bracket this", "set the bracket", "scope this", "what's the bracket", before /implement, before any multi-step code change, when picking up a critical PIC, or whenever a session is about to do real work that could expand. Also trigger when the user says /bracket. Even casual phrasing like "scope this work" or "what are we actually doing here" should trigger this. The skill is the structural answer to the failure mode "agent read the working contract and then violated it within hours."

Show its rules and text
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
17 rules. About 0 are common, 14 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈14
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
3
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
No licence file, so all rights are reserved — read it at the source. We count its rules but don't quote them. Read them on GitHub.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
