# Send Rationality to your agent Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually. ## Fast path - Download the package from Yavira. - Extract it into a folder your agent can access. - Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder. ## Suggested prompts ### New install ```text I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete. ``` ### Upgrade existing ```text I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run. ``` ## Machine-readable fields ```json { "schemaVersion": "1.0", "item": { "slug": "rationality", "name": "Rationality", "source": "tencent", "type": "skill", "category": "开发工具", "sourceUrl": "https://clawhub.ai/XertroV/rationality", "canonicalUrl": "https://clawhub.ai/XertroV/rationality", "targetPlatform": "OpenClaw" }, "install": { "downloadUrl": "/downloads/rationality", "sourceDownloadUrl": "https://wry-manatee-359.convex.site/api/v1/download?slug=rationality", "sourcePlatform": "tencent", "targetPlatform": "OpenClaw", "packageFormat": "ZIP package", "primaryDoc": "SKILL.md", "includedAssets": [ "LICENSE.md", "README.md", "SKILL.md", "frameworks/decision.md", "frameworks/paths-forward.md", "frameworks/self-correction.md" ], "downloadMode": "redirect", "sourceHealth": { "source": "tencent", "slug": "rationality", "status": "healthy", "reason": "direct_download_ok", "recommendedAction": "download", "checkedAt": "2026-05-07T21:37:22.497Z", "expiresAt": "2026-05-14T21:37:22.497Z", "httpStatus": 200, "finalUrl": "https://wry-manatee-359.convex.site/api/v1/download?slug=rationality", "contentType": "application/zip", "probeMethod": "head", "details": { "probeUrl": "https://wry-manatee-359.convex.site/api/v1/download?slug=rationality", "contentDisposition": "attachment; filename=\"rationality-0.1.0.zip\"", "redirectLocation": null, "bodySnippet": null, "slug": "rationality" }, "scope": "item", "summary": "Item download looks usable.", "detail": "Yavira can redirect you to the upstream package for this item.", "primaryActionLabel": "Download for OpenClaw", "primaryActionHref": "/downloads/rationality" }, "validation": { "installChecklist": [ "Use the Yavira download entry.", "Review SKILL.md after the package is downloaded.", "Confirm the extracted package contains the expected setup assets." ], "postInstallChecks": [ "Confirm the extracted package includes the expected docs or setup files.", "Validate the skill or prompts are available in your target agent workspace.", "Capture any manual follow-up steps the agent could not complete." ] } }, "links": { "detailUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/rationality", "downloadUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/downloads/rationality", "agentUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/rationality/agent", "manifestUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/rationality/agent.json", "briefUrl": "https://openagent3.xyz/skills/rationality/agent.md" } } ``` ## Documentation ### Rationality Skill (Critical Fallibilism) The Rationality skill provides a structured framework for thinking, decision-making, and error correction based on the principles of Critical Fallibilism (CF). Unlike traditional rationality which often relies on "weighing" evidence, CF focuses on binary evaluation, error detection, and managing the limits of human (and AI) cognition. ### Quick Start Define your IGC Triple: What is the Idea, the specific Goal, and the Context? Translate to Binary: Don't ask "how good" an idea is. Ask: "Is there a decisive reason this idea fails at the goal?" Check for Overreach: Is the complexity of the task exceeding your ability to detect and fix errors? (See patterns/overreach.md). Seek Criticism: Treat every error found as a gift—a specific piece of knowledge that allows you to improve. ### 1. The Pledge (Honesty) Always be willing to follow the truth wherever it leads. Never suppress a criticism or intuition just because it is inconvenient or socially awkward. ### 2. Binary Evaluation Knowledge is digital, not analog. Ideas are either refuted (they have a known flaw that makes them fail their goal) or non-refuted. We do not use "weights," "scores," or "probabilities" to judge ideas. One decisive criticism is enough to reject an idea. ### 3. Criticism as Gift Errors are inevitable. The only way to improve is to find them. Therefore, criticism is the most valuable input for growth. We don't defend ideas against criticism; we use criticism to filter out errors. ### 4. Ideas Over Identity Separate your "self" from your ideas. If an idea you hold is refuted, it is the idea that failed, not you. This prevents defensive reactions that block learning. ### 5. Overreach Awareness Error correction is a limited resource. If you take on tasks that are too complex, you will create errors faster than you can fix them. This is Overreach. When you overreach, you must stop, simplify, and revert. ### 6. Paths Forward You must maintain "Paths Forward" for error correction. This means having a policy for how external criticism (from users or other agents) is handled so that errors can be fixed without infinite effort. ### Directory Structure frameworks/: Core algorithms for thinking and deciding. patterns/: Recognizable mental models and common failures. templates/: Practical tools and checklists for daily use. ### When to Use This Skill High-Stakes Decisions: When you can't afford a "good enough" guess. Complex Debugging: When you are stuck in a loop or compounding errors. Resolving Disagreements: When you need a structured way to move past "he said / she said." Self-Regulation: To monitor your own reasoning for bias or overreach. ### Philosophy Foundation This skill is based on Critical Fallibilism, which synthesizes: Popperian Epistemology: Knowledge grows through conjecture and refutation. Theory of Constraints (Goldratt): Focus on bottlenecks; ignore excess capacity. Objectivism (Rand): Reason as an absolute; importance of definitions and context. Note: This skill is optimized for AI operational use.
