Use at the start of every inner-loop iteration where the goal is to fix a bug / close a failing test / reach a green E2E. Forbids editing code without first running the E2E to capture a fresh loss signal, and forbids declaring "done" without the E2E passing. Makes the cycle "E2E → loss → 5-why-by-layer → fix → E2E" the only admissible rhythm.

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

# E2E-Driven-Iteration

## Overview

The existing dach-skill `loop-driven-engineering` says "run E2E when warranted." That's too soft. Under time pressure, "warranted" silently becomes "never" and the iteration degrades into blind-patching based on stale assumptions.

**Core principle:** when you are in a fix-loop (trying to close a failing signal), **every iteration begins and ends with an E2E run of the failing case**. The E2E is the forward pass; its output is the loss; the delta between iterations is the gradient signal that tells you whether the last edit helped or regressed.

No E2E at the start → no loss measurement → your edit is speculative. No E2E at the end → you don't know if you converged or just stopped.

See [`../../docs/ldd/convergence.md`](../../docs/ldd/convergence.md) §5 for how this skill implements the loss trace across the test pyramid.

## When to Use

Invoke at the start of **every inner-loop iteration** whose purpose is:

- Fixing a failing test
- Closing a rejected gate
- Resolving a production incident
- Debugging an unexpected behavior
- Converging on any goal where "is it fixed yet?" is the question

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add corvinlabs/corvinos/e2e-driven-iteration@sha256:40455e7d544eb701

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260915.459047e, 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.
