  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Hegelion is an agent skill from Hmbown/Hegelion. Dialectical reasoning and autocoding via Hegelion MCP tools.

Its SKILL.md is about 360 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering MCP servers. It works with Model Context Protocol, Ollama and OpenAI. The repository describes itself as: Dialectical reasoning architecture for LLMs (Thesis → Antithesis → Synthesis). The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve MCP servers

Example prompts

  • “/hegelion”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9e0c617. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Hegelion loads about 359 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 17 tokens; SKILL.md has 103 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~17
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~359

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Routing

Task typeMCP call
Analysis/decisionmcp__hegelion__dialectic(query, mode="single_shot", response_style="synthesis_only")
Implementationmcp__hegelion__autocode(requirements, mode="init")

Tip: If execution is configured, set execute=true and backend="auto" on dialectic mode=single_shot to return the final answer in one call.

Autocoding Loop

mcp__hegelion__autocode(requirements, mode="init")
    -> autocode_turn(role="player") -> [implement]
    -> autocode_turn(role="coach", execute=true, backend="auto", cwd="<workspace>") -> [independent verify]
    -> autocode_turn(role="advance", coach_feedback=..., approved=false)
           ^                                                            |
           |________________ loop until APPROVED or max_turns __________|

Codex Role Rules

  • The current Codex session is always the PLAYER.
  • The coach step should be executed through Hegelion, not answered directly in the current session.
  • Prefer a separate Codex backend for the coach by using backend="auto".
  • If backend="auto" falls back to prompt-only output, surface that independent coach execution is unavailable. Do not turn the current session into the coach.
  • COACH is authoritative. Run tests. Never self-approve.
