declaring-invariants skillA
declaring-invariants is agent-read markdown (skill) from oaustegard/claude-skills: Find tests that enumerate a domain by copying it, and declare the invariants a codebase depends on. Reports where a parametrize list, for-loop, or it.each iterates a hand-written subset of a dict/set/tuple/Enum that exists in the source, and names the members nothing covers. Use when reviewing tests, when a module gains a name-to-thing table, registry, enum, or dispatch map, before trusting a green suite as evidence a domain is covered, or when asked "is this test actually total", "does anything.
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
How to install
mdr add oaustegard/claude-skills/declaring-invariants@v0.2.3mdr add oaustegard/claude-skills/declaring-invariants@sha256:34d9da0e1e2ab1a4Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
