What it does

H Explore is an agent skill from m0n0x41d/haft. Generate 3-5 genuinely distinct candidate approaches for a current question, with the weakest link of each visible. May work from an inline question or a durable ProblemCard; persistence is conditional.

Its SKILL.md is about 430 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 Agent Workflows. The repository describes itself as: Engineering decisions engine that know when they're stale. Frame, compare, decide — with evidence decay and parity enforcement. For Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Codex and more.

When your agent uses it

  • Agent Workflows work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/h-explore”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e0c63f4. 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

H Explore loads about 428 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 199 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~53
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~428

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.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 199 words (~428 tokens).

“Retrieve current FPF source with mode="inspect" for a known SourceID/UnitID, or mode="concern" for the exploration question. Inspect the direct pattern body; retrieval does not choose or rank a candidate.”
