ask-debt

80 / 100 · Low risk

Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Read-only measurement of an agent's autonomy debt from its approvals log: how many times it asked the human for permission in a window, how many asks expired unanswered, and which classes they fall into (machine noise, login or 2FA, physical UAC, money). Use to find asks the agent should have decided itself and to cut needless interruptions. Triggers: /ask-debt, autonomy debt, how often do I ask, expired asks.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'ask-debt' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'ask-debt' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named ask-debt already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/tonydzi/second-brain-starter-kit' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '1e330b279e183cf0eef80bf6c6cb7e3e16a4e1bb' -- 'skills/ask-debt' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/ask-debt' ~/.agents/skills/'ask-debt' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'ask-debt' ~/.claude/skills/'ask-debt' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
