Internal downstream skill for ctf-sandbox-orchestrator. CTF-sandbox workflow for race windows, ordering bugs, idempotency failures, lock gaps, concurrent worker drift, and state inconsistencies that produce decisive effects. Use when the user asks to reproduce timing-sensitive bugs, concurrent state corruption, duplicate actions, stale reads, or privilege or balance drift caused by request ordering. Use only after `$ctf-sandbox-orchestrator` has already established sandbox assumptions and…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Competition Race Condition State Drift Use this skill only as a downstream specialization after `$ctf-sandbox-orchestrator` is already active and has established sandbox assumptions, node ownership, and evidence priorities. If that has not happened yet, return to `$ctf-sandbox-orchestrator` first. Use this skill when the decisive behavior depends on request timing, async ordering, lock gaps, or stale state. Reply in Simplified Chinese unless the user explicitly requests English. ## Quick Start 1. Identify mutable state first: rows, cache keys, queue payloads, session fields, counters, or files. 2. Reproduce with smallest concurrent sequence and fixed timing assumptions. 3. Capture one baseline run and one racing run with only one variable changed. 4. Track read, check, write, enqueue, and commit boundaries separately. 5. Prove final state drift from a clean reset. ## Workflow ### 1. Map Mutable Boundaries - Record transaction scope, lock behavior, retry logic, idempotency keys, cache invalidation, and queue handoff. - Note where read-check-write is split across requests, workers, or services. - Keep each boundary tied to exact timestamps or sequence numbers. …

How to install
mdr add novaestellar/novahaku/competition-race-condition-state-drift@sha256:f0c2aeefefc1dc75The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260925.9330cc6, 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.
