Write clear, testable acceptance criteria for user stories and feature delivery; use when defining done conditions, creating measurable requirements, applying INVEST checks, documenting negative scenarios, and aligning product, engineering, and QA on expected outcomes.

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

# Acceptance Criteria

Navigation hub for writing measurable, test-ready acceptance criteria.

## Use When

- "Write acceptance criteria for this feature."
- "Define done conditions for this story."
- "Create testable requirements before implementation."
- "Apply INVEST quality checks to this story."

## When Not to Use

- Architecture decisions and system design tradeoffs.
- Deep technical specifications about implementation internals.

## Workflow

1. Capture user outcome and business intent.
2. Select criteria format (Given/When/Then or rule-oriented).
3. Draft must-pass criteria with measurable outcomes.
4. Add negative and boundary scenarios.
5. Validate with checklist before sign-off.

## Worked Example

**Starting Point (Vague Requirement):**
> "Users should be able to reset their password easily."

**Step 1:** Capture Intent
- User outcome: User regains account access after forgetting password.
- Business intent: Reduce support tickets; maintain security.

**Step 2:** Select Format
Choose Given/When/Then (Gherkin) for clarity.

**Step 3:** Draft Must-Pass Criteria
```gherkin
Given a user is on the login page
When they click "Forgot Password"

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add pantheon-org/tekhne/acceptance-criteria@sha256:9b00c99883e497ab

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260427.dfbd28f, 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.
