Anti-Ceremony

A judgment skill that returns a single artifact-free CONTINUE/STOP verdict on whether a work traversal earns its cost or is just process ceremony.

AutomationAdvanced★ 434⑂ 40AI score 6/10Last updated: Sep 8, 2026

What it does

  • Freezes the caller-visible outcome in one short statement.
  • Parks proposed process work with no concrete consumer, gated subject, observed defect, or retirement condition (dashboards, second audit passes, extra reviews).
  • Names the remaining proof and the stop condition that ends the traversal.
  • Returns only a YAML block (decision, reason, frozen_outcome, parked_process_work, remaining_proof, stop_condition) — no files under .agents/, no tracker writes.
  • Runs the heavier honesty audit only when the caller literally writes "full anti-ceremony audit".

Who it's for

  • Teams running structured agent workflows such as RPI (Research–Plan–Implement).
  • Leads who want an automatic brake on documentation, checklist and review sprawl.
  • Agent-orchestration designers who want to stop agents from manufacturing work about work.

Examples

  1. Pre-Plan guard: "Outcome: the ao gate check lists the probe-coverage row; proposed: a coverage dashboard and a second audit pass" → the dashboard is parked, remaining proof is the gate row green in CI.
  2. Before a refactor: strip proposed design docs and review meetings that aren't backed by an observed defect, keeping only the verification that matters.
  3. Full audit: explicitly request "full anti-ceremony audit" to get concise keep / park / drop findings for every control artifact your team maintains.

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the images/gemini/skills/anti-ceremony folder from the GitHub repo boshu2/agentops into my ~/.claude/skills/anti-ceremony/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/boshu2/agentops.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r agentops/images/gemini/skills/anti-ceremony ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/boshu2/agentops.git
  3. Create the skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the skill: cp -r agentops/images/gemini/skills/anti-ceremony ~/.claude/skills/
  5. This skill reads references/boundaries.md from the sibling rpi skill, so copy the rpi skill as well.
  6. Restart Claude Code and invoke it before planning, e.g. "run the anti-ceremony guard" plus the outcome, the proposed process work, and the proof still missing.
