# Undominated · Withdrawal residue

Check an explicitly observed withdrawn numeric field and its named dependents for leftover values. Use after a source value has been removed from a snapshot.

“Check an explicitly observed withdrawn numeric field and its named dependents for leftover values. Use after a source value has been removed from a snapshot.”

 [Undominated.ai · upstream description ↗](https://github.com/Lenvanderhof/Undominated.ai/blob/a67bd9b86fca7455ed208403d9ea6f9fe847cd99/skills/undominated-withdrawal-residue/SKILL.md) Our analysis follows below.

01 / THE REASONING

## Why this made the selection.

 - Pairs a bounded workflow with an offline Python checker and explicitly synthetic example inputs.
- Created for recurring evidence and comparison failures: missing facts remain unknown and every conclusion keeps its scope.

### A good fit for

 - An observed numeric field was withdrawn and named dependent fields may still show values.

### Weigh up before choosing

 - Requires the explicit observed withdrawnValue and named numeric dependents. It cannot verify withdrawal or discover omitted dependencies; zero remains residue and empty coverage requires review.
- Fixture checks establish the documented local behaviour, not performance on an unrestricted set of real tasks.
- This resource is not included in undominated-check@0.4.0. Use the pinned source command shown or the complete source download.

02 / THE REVIEW RECORD

## What we actually inspected.

Source review has boundaries. A clear record is more useful than a “safe” badge.

### Material inspected

 - Original definition and MIT licence
- Bundled checker source, input contract and synthetic examples

### Our findings

 - First-party resource authored by Undominated.ai; this is our own verification record, not an independent endorsement.
- The download preserves the complete source and supporting files. Its manifest hashes identify the exact bytes.

### Not established by this review

 - Model compliance with these instructions on arbitrary tasks
- Native integration in every agent host

The review applies to the material and revision named here. A newer upstream release can change its behavior.

03 / PUT IT TO WORK

## Add a skill to your workflow.

[Upstream setup instructions ↗](https://github.com/Lenvanderhof/Undominated.ai/blob/a67bd9b86fca7455ed208403d9ea6f9fe847cd99/skills/undominated-withdrawal-residue/SKILL.md)

DOCUMENTED COMMAND

 npx skills add Lenvanderhof/Undominated.ai --skill undominated-withdrawal-residue Copy command ↗

Run in your terminal to choose your AI tools, project or global scope, and installation method. This short command follows the current upstream version; the review covers the revision shown above.

 Optional: install the reviewed revision

Keeps the original source and installer version where recorded, while leaving your AI tools and installation scope for you to choose.

 npx skills@1.7.1 add https://github.com/Lenvanderhof/Undominated.ai/tree/a67bd9b86fca7455ed208403d9ea6f9fe847cd99/skills --skill undominated-withdrawal-residue Copy reviewed-revision command ↗ - Run the command in your terminal. Choose your AI tools and project or global installation scope in the installer.
- For manual installation instead, download the complete bundle from https://undominated.ai/resources/skills/undominated-withdrawal-residue/bundle.zip and extract it into a new directory.
- For that manual installation, place the extracted directory at .agents/skills/undominated-withdrawal-residue/ or your host's documented skills directory. Preserve SKILL.md, scripts, examples and licence files together.
- Run the documented synthetic example from the skill directory with Python 3.10 or later before using your own evidence.

### Before you start

 - An Agent Skills compatible host
- Python 3.10 or later for the optional checker

### Compatibility

Agent Skills compatible hosts · Python 3.10+

### Implementation

Python · Markdown

### Local, explicit inputs

 - read:user-selected-local-file

### Cost model

MIT source at no charge. Your agent host or model provider may charge for use; the included offline checks require no paid API.

# Withdrawal residue

Obtain the post-withdrawal snapshot first. Name the field that was withdrawn and the numeric fields that depend on it. Preserve unknown values as `null`; zero is still a value and must not stand in for absence.

## Input contract

- `withdrawnField`: required exact non-empty field name.
- `withdrawnValue`: required observed value, represented as `null` or a non-negative decimal string.
- `dependents`: required object mapping exact non-empty names to `null` or non-negative decimal strings. Do not list the withdrawn field as its own dependent.

All fields must be supplied explicitly. A non-null withdrawn value requires review. Every named dependent must be null to pass; `"0"` and `"0.00"` are residue. An empty dependent object requires review because no dependency coverage has been supplied.

## Deliverable and limits

Return the observed withdrawn value, the number of dependents checked and each remaining value's field name. The checker trusts the caller's supplied snapshot and dependency list; it cannot establish that withdrawal actually occurred, discover missing dependents or inspect public pages. Textual labels and non-numeric dependent values are outside this contract.

`examples/zero-residue.json` requires review. The synthetic passing example contains a null withdrawn value and two named null dependents.

## Run the local check

Resolve paths relative to this skill directory:

```sh
python3 scripts/check.py examples/synthetic.json
python3 scripts/check.py /absolute/path/to/your-input.json
```

The examples are **synthetic**, not market measurements. Python 3.10+; standard library only. The script reads one explicit UTF-8 JSON file, prints JSON and makes no network requests or file writes.

Exit codes: `0` consistency check passed, `1` review required, `2` invalid input. CLI argument and malformed-input errors return structured JSON; `--help` displays usage text. Unknown or duplicate JSON fields, non-JSON constants and invalid types are rejected. Files are limited to 1 MiB; decimal strings to 1000 characters; identity/field names to 512 characters, with no surrounding whitespace or ASCII control characters.

This source-only skill is **not included in undominated-check@0.4.0**. Keep `SKILL.md`, the checker, examples and MIT licence together. A pass validates the bounded supplied-input contract, not production suitability or permission to publish. The skill does not authorize external actions.

The download contains SKILL.md . Extract the whole bundle; the supporting files are required. Inspect the included MANIFEST.json for file hashes.
