Fully autonomous bug hunting pipeline — discover bugs in a scoped area using parallel subagents, independently triage each finding, fix confirmed issues with subagents, then audit all fixes against repo constraints and target platforms. Runs end-to-end without user interaction.

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

# Bughunt

Fully autonomous pipeline: find, triage, fix, and audit bugs in a scoped area of a codebase. Five phases, each using subagents to parallelize work and provide independent assessments.

**This skill runs end-to-end without asking the user any questions.** Do not pause for confirmation, approval, or input between phases. Make autonomous decisions at every step — section splits, severity judgments, fix strategies, conflict resolution. Log progress to the report so the user can review the final output, but never block on user input.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Default | Example override |
|-----------|---------|-----------------|
| **Scope** | _(required)_ | `the install script`, `src/auth/`, `the CLI argument parser` |
| **Sections** | auto-split from scope | `split by platform`, `one per module` |
| **Platforms** | inferred from repo | `Linux, macOS, WSL` |
| **Output** | `/tmp/bughunt-output/<project>/` | `Output directory: ./qa/` |

`<project>` is the basename of the repo root (e.g. `/tmp/bughunt-output/harbor/`). The output directory — and therefore prior-run memory — is always per-project; never read or write another project's reports.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add av/skills/bughunt@sha256:e96a32c6b6bdf632

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260612.7c5d841, 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.
