AI DevKit · Smoke-test the user flows a change affects (CLI, API, UI) end to end with a disposable sandboxed script against the real app. Use before calling a feature or fix done, when unit tests pass but the flow is untested, or when users ask for a smoke, e2e, or impact check.

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

# Smoke

Exercise the flows a change touches the way a user would, then throw the script away. Report with `verify`; use `dev-testing` for permanent tests.

## Rules

- Drive the real entry point: built binary, running server, CLI, UI, or job. Imported functions and mocks are not smoke checks.
- Sandbox everything: temp dir, isolated `HOME` and config, empty git hooks, seeded test data, test accounts and tokens.
- Never use production, shared environments, real accounts or credentials, or paid APIs. Ask before outward-facing side effects: messages, emails, webhooks, deploys, pushes.
- Start servers on a dedicated port, wait until they respond, and stop the whole process tree on exit. Never reuse or kill the user's own servers.
- Keep secrets out of the script and its output.
- Write the script outside the repo; commit it only if the user asks to promote it.
- Timebox setup. If the app cannot run locally, say what was not checked instead of faking a pass.

## Workflow

1. Read the change: `git diff` against the base branch, plus untracked files.

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add codeaholicguy/ai-devkit/dev-smoke@sha256:abfa3a1a34f08eb9

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261023.fdbfb3a, 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.
