assumption-test from haabe/mycelium is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add haabe/mycelium/assumption-test@git:20261011.ead7061Pins git:20261011.ead7061 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Design the smallest viable test to validate or invalidate a critical assumption. Based on Torres's assumption testing framework, organized by Gilad's AFTER model (Assessment → Fact-Finding → Tests → Experiments → Release Results).
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
# Assumption Testing Every solution rests on assumptions. Test the riskiest ones first with the lightest method possible. ## Preflight: Read target canvas file(s) before any Write/Edit **Hard rule.** Before issuing `Write` or `Edit` against any `.claude/canvas/*.yml`, use the **Read tool** on that file in this session. Claude Code's Read-before-Write check requires the `Read` tool specifically — `cat`/`head`/`grep` via Bash do NOT satisfy it. **Edit vs Write — different cost profiles** (verified 2026-05-14): - **`Edit`** (exact-string replacement): `Read` with `limit: 1` satisfies the check at ~50 tokens. State-tracking is per-file, not per-byte — subsequent `Edit` calls work anywhere in the file. Use this for partial updates against large canvas files (e.g., `purpose.yml` at 800+ lines). - **`Write`** (full replacement): do a **full Read** first. Write obliterates the file; you should see what you're about to replace. The `limit:1` shortcut is *not* appropriate here. …

How to install
mdr add haabe/mycelium/assumption-test@sha256:7af731f0f6a90259The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261011.ead7061, 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.
