create-verification-skill SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

create-verification-skill from painhardcore/pstack is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add painhardcore/pstack/create-verification-skill@git:20260827.04830a9

Pins git:20260827.04830a9 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Generate a project-local verification skill that drives your app the way a user does — any language, framework, or platform. Use for /create-verification-skill, "make a control skill for this repo", or when a project has no scripted way to prove UI/CLI/service behavior.

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

# Create a verification skill

Every serious project needs a scripted way to drive the real app and prove behavior: launch it, exercise a feature the way a user would, and capture evidence. This skill generates a project-local `verify-<app>` skill tailored to the repo. Read [references/host-paths.md](references/host-paths.md), choose the active host's one project skill root, and call it `<skill-root>` below. Write for the next agent, which will read the result cold and mid-task.

## 1. Interview the repo, not the user

Answer these from the codebase and only ask the user what you cannot observe:

- **Surface:** what does a user actually touch? A web UI, a CLI/TUI, a desktop app, an API, a mobile app, a library? A repo can have several; pick the primary one and note the rest.
- **Run:** how does the app start locally? Prefer the repo's own documented dev command (package scripts, Makefile, README quickstart). Note ports, env vars, seed data, auth.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add painhardcore/pstack/create-verification-skill@sha256:24ede71383996703

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260827.04830a9, 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.
