al-probe SKILL.md skillA

al-probe from sshadows/lethal is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add sshadows/lethal/al-probe@git:20261106.09fab17

Pins git:20261106.09fab17 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Scaffold, publish and run a throwaway AL probe app against a LethAL BC container to MEASURE real Business Central behaviour instead of reasoning about it. Use when a claim about what BC actually does is load-bearing — before writing it into a spec, a comment, a roadmap row or a verdict rule. Knows this repo's id ranges, the schema-ghost publish order, and why StartSession is unavailable.

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

# Measure BC, don't reason about it

LethAL's AL has **no unit-test harness**. `alc` proves it compiles; nothing proves what BC *does*.
When a behavioural claim is about to become load-bearing — a verdict rule, a spec section, a
roadmap row — measure it.

The generic `bc-measure` skill covers experiment design (controls, disjoint row ranges, cache
confounds, reading `SqlStatementsExecuted`). **Read it for the method.** This skill exists because
that one does not know LethAL, and three of its landmines cost real time here.

## The three landmines, and how to avoid them

### 1. Id range 91000–91099 is TAKEN

`LethAL Control` owns it. A probe scaffolded from the generic template (91000–91010) fails at
publish, not at compile:

```
The application object of type 'Table' with the ID '91000' is defined in multiple apps.
The apps are: <probe>; LethAL Control by LethAL 1.0.0.x
```

**Use 91500-91599, the range reserved for scratch work.** Set it in `app.json` `idRanges` *and* on every object.

**A scratch object in a COPY of a fixture app must be checked free first** (it has to sit in that app's own id range, so 915xx does
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add sshadows/lethal/al-probe@sha256:e03c184cbf5e23a7

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261106.09fab17, 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.
