What it does

H Frame is an agent skill from m0n0x41d/haft. Shape an engineering problem without assuming a solution or forcing a project phase. Use when a redesign, refactor, or proposal arrives before the affected object, observed signal, constraints, unresolved relation, and acceptance basis are clear. Default to a conversational frame; record a ProblemCard only on explicit save intent or when current Work supplies a concrete operator-named or agent-inferred receiving use that needs a durable accepted problem statement. Prefer h-diagnose for a concrete failure with…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k 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 Development. 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

  • Proposal arrives before the affected object
  • Observed signal
  • Unresolved relation
  • Acceptance basis are clear

Example prompts

  • “/h-frame”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Grep, Glob, mcp__haft__haft_problem, mcp__haft__haft_query

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Stabilize the signal. Separate what was observed from assumed cause and
  2. Restore overloaded words. Replace vague terms such as quality,
  3. Classify only if useful. Diagnosis, optimization, search, or synthesis
  4. State scope and constraints. Say what is in and out. Separate hard
  5. Draft acceptance. Propose an observable solved condition and label it as
  6. Keep solution content out. If a proposed method exposed the problem,

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 these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Bash
    • Read
    • Grep
    • Glob
    • mcp__haft__haft_problem
    • mcp__haft__haft_query

    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 Frame loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 134 tokens; SKILL.md has 641 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~134
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k

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.

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

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 641 words (~1,575 tokens).

“Use the FPF source for problem shaping rather than a hard-coded route. For an exact SourceID or UnitID, call mcphafthaft_query(action="fpf", mode="inspect", identifier="..."). Otherwise use mode="concern" with the operator's query, then inspect the direct pattern body before relying on it. A…”
