What problem does it solve?

When an AI agent is on the wrong track, immediate intervention is crucial to prevent wasted effort or propagating errors. This Skill provides an unambiguous "STOP" keyword protocol for urgent work halts, saving you time and preventing costly mistakes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Immediate Halt Protocol: Detects the "STOP" keyword (first word, all caps, followed by newline) and halts current work instantly, even mid-task.
  • Prevents Rationalization: Designed to override agent "momentum mode" and prevent finishing tasks before stopping, ensuring true immediate halt.
  • Clear Acknowledgment: Confirms the halt and prompts the user for the issue, awaiting new direction before resuming.
  • Use Case: If an agent starts modifying the wrong file or misinterprets a requirement during a complex task, typing "STOP [explanation]" immediately halts its progress, saving significant time and preventing further mistakes.

Quick Start

To immediately halt the AI agent's current work:

STOP You're modifying the wrong file. Let me explain the correct approach.

The agent will halt, acknowledge, and wait for your instructions.

It will NOT finish its current task or batch.
