Use this skill when an auditor will test change management, or the team wants to know before they do, and asks "sample our production changes", "check our PR approvals", "do we have segregation of duties on deploys", "test change management before the audit", "were emergency changes approved" or "can a developer push to production alone". Builds the change population from what actually reached production, reconciles it with tickets and pull requests, draws a recorded sample, tests approval…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
Use this for a period of operation, typically the audit period or the last quarter. You get three files in a new folder, `./change-management-evidence-sampling/`: a short note of how the list of production changes was built and how the sample was drawn, so anyone can redraw it (`sample-plan.md`); a spreadsheet you can open in Excel with one row per sampled change and a yes or no for each check, with the link that proves it (`change-sample.csv`); and a plain list of every check that failed, stated as facts (`exceptions.md`). This skill drafts for a human to review and sign; this skill never marks a control effective. It records what each sampled change shows; conclusions belong to the reader and the auditor. End `sample-plan.md` with `## Not checked`: what this run did not read or could not open, what it assumed and what it did not verify, specific to this run. ## Inputs to gather …

How to install
mdr add better-isms/grcskills/change-management-evidence-sampling@sha256:08cbc721fae2628bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.690016c, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
