What it does
Aif Grounded is an agent skill from unxed/f4. Reliability gate for answers. Forces evidence-based reasoning, explicit uncertainty, and “insufficient information” instead of guesses. Use when user says “be 100% sure”, “no hallucinations”, “only if verified”, “grounded answer”, or when stakes are high.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: dual pane like a charm. The licence is BSD-3-Clause.
When your agent uses it
- User says be 100% sure
- No hallucinations
- Only if verified
- Grounded answer
Example prompts
- “insufficient information”
- “be 100% sure”
- “no hallucinations”
- “/aif-grounded”
Requirements
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep, Bash, AskUserQuestion, Questions
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 772edc7. 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:
ReadWriteEditGlobGrepBashAskUserQuestionQuestions
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
Aif Grounded loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 67 tokens; SKILL.md has 611 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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

Grounded - Reliability Gate (No Guessing)
This skill minimizes random / fabricated answers by enforcing a strict rule:
Only provide the final answer if confidence is 100/100 based on evidence available.
If confidence is not 100, do not guess and do not implement. Output a short “what’s missing” checklist that explains what would be required to reach 100.
When to use
Use when:
- The user requests maximum reliability (“only if you’re sure”, “no assumptions”).
- The request includes changeable facts (versions, “latest”, policies, prices, schedules).
- The request is security/finance/legal/medical adjacent (high stakes).
- You’re resuming after context loss and need to avoid accidental assumptions.
Workflow
Step 0: Load Skill Context
Read .ai-factory/skill-context/aif-grounded/SKILL.md — MANDATORY if the file exists.
This file contains project-specific rules accumulated by /aif-evolve from patches,
codebase conventions, and tech-stack analysis. These rules are tailored to the current project.
How to apply skill-context rules:
- Treat them as project-level overrides for this skill's general instructions
- When a skill-context rule conflicts with a general rule written in this SKILL.md, the skill-context rule wins (more specific context takes priority — same principle as nested CLAUDE.md files)
- When there is no conflict, apply both: general rules from SKILL.md + project rules from skill-context
- Do NOT ignore skill-context rules even if they seem to contradict this skill's defaults — they exist because the project's experience proved the default insufficient
- CRITICAL: skill-context rules apply to ALL outputs of this skill — including the response format, evidence requirements, and confidence assessment. If a skill-context rule says "analysis MUST include X" or "confidence MUST account for Y" — you MUST comply. Producing an analysis that ignores skill-context rules is a bug.
Enforcement: After generating any output artifact, verify it against all skill-context rules. If any rule is violated — fix the output before presenting it to the user.
Step 1: Classify the request
Classify into one of:
- Repo-grounded — can be answered purely from the local codebase and command outputs.
- Doc-grounded — requires authoritative docs/specs/logs provided by the user or accessible tooling.
- External-facts — depends on changeable facts outside the repo (must be verified, otherwise refuse).
Step 2: Define evidence and unknowns
Before answering, list:
- Evidence sources you will use (files, command outputs, provided docs).
- Unknowns (anything not present in evidence).
Hard rule:
- If a claim is not supported by evidence, it becomes an unknown (not an assumption).
Show full SKILL.md (230 more words)Show less
Step 3: Mandatory verification for changeable facts
If the request contains any changeable fact (“latest”, “current”, “today”, “default in vX”, “does library Y support Z now”):
- Verify via authoritative docs/specs, release notes, or logs.
- If verification is not possible with available tools/context, return INSUFFICIENT INFORMATION and ask for the needed source (link excerpt, version, log output).
Step 4: Confidence gate
Compute a confidence score 0–100:
- 100 only if every factual claim is supported by evidence you can point to (repo files, command outputs, provided docs), and there are no open unknowns.
- If any unknown remains → confidence < 100 → do not answer/implement.
Step 5: Output format (strict)
If confidence is 100:
Answer:
<final answer or patch summary>
Confidence: 100/100
Evidence:
- <file/command/doc used>
Checks:
- <3 concrete checks someone can run/inspect to confirm>If confidence is < 100:
Result: INSUFFICIENT INFORMATION (no guessing)
Current confidence: <N>/100
Why not 100:
- <top reasons>
Missing evidence:
- <what exact file/output/doc is needed>
To reach 100:
- <1–3 concrete asks or commands for the user to run and paste output>Artifact Ownership and Config Policy
- Primary ownership: none. This skill is a reliability gate for answers, not an artifact-producing workflow.
- Write policy: do not create or modify project artifacts by default.
- Config policy: config-agnostic by design. Evidence comes from the repo, command outputs, provided docs, and authoritative sources, not from
config.yaml.
Implementation guardrail
If the user asks for code changes:
- You may explore the repo and propose what evidence is needed.
- Only apply patches once confidence can be 100 (e.g., requirements are precise + you can verify build/tests or equivalent checks).
- If the repo lacks a verification path (no build/tests and behavior can’t be validated), do not claim 100; return INSUFFICIENT INFORMATION and propose the minimal validation needed.
