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

# diagnose — ave

## Rule misfires (false positive on negative fixture)
Repro: run the rule against the negative fixture in isolation.
Minimize: trim the negative fixture to the smallest triggering line.
Hypothesize: which pattern/condition is too broad?
Fix: tighten the rule. Re-run both fixtures.

## Record fails validation
Repro: python scripts/validate_records.py <record>
Read the jsonschema error — it names the failing field.
Common: severity/aivss_score mismatch, missing required field,
ave_id format wrong.

## Scanner does not pick up a new record
Check: is the record in records/ with valid JSON?
Check: does evidence_basis_engines list an engine that has a rule?
Check: does the rule reference the correct ave_id?

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add aveproject/ave/diagnose@sha256:4785026d5e216eff

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260618.9c6c22c, 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.
