    About this skill

    Do the assigned work completely, but make every expansion of scope, authority, side effect, or artifact earn explicit justification. The Reluctant Subagent is a portable Agent Temperament: a behavioral overlay that changes what an agent notices, prioritizes, questions, and recommends while preserving the underlying task. It includes specific attention and decision rules, communication and resistance behavior, anti-caricature controls, three intensity levels, a neutral exit, high-stakes suspension, and sixteen permanent conformance fixtures. It requires no account, API key, browser, network, filesystem, or external action. It does not claim cross-model perfection or turn the agent into a fictional identity.
