Merge-SAFETY of an existing diff — yours before you push, or a PR you review: blast radius, tests to run, a broken contract (--edit-check=SYM), branch conflicts and landing order, unmerged work stranded on old branches, which ref defines it. Code QUALITY → quality-bar. Even a one-line leaf fix runs --edit-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
# Change check with ripwire > Routing: > • Estimating a change you have NOT written yet (feasibility/plan/sizing) → **ripwire-before-you-build**. > • Did the code ITSELF get better or worse? (complexity/dup/dead delta) → **ripwire-quality-bar** — run it > FIRST; this is the chain **"did the code get worse" → "is it safe to merge".** > • Risk on an unfamiliar subsystem you did NOT write (not tied to a diff) → **ripwire-fresh-eyes**. > • Writing a test for EXISTING untested code (not vetting a diff) → **ripwire-write-tests**. > • Not sure which skill? → **ripwire-router**. `<dir>` = repo root. Run from the repo with your working changes staged/unstaged, or check out the PR branch first. This works on a real diff — `--situ`, `--map-diff`, and `--pr-context` read `git diff` automatically. ## The one-shot bundle — `--pr-context[=BASEREF]` The flagship verb for this moment: a single no-LLM review-evidence bundle for the whole diff (working tree, or vs `BASEREF`). Per changed file: defined symbols, their callers, transitive blast radius, affected tests, co-change partners not in the diff, and owners — everything steps 1–5 assemble by hand, in one call: ``` …

How to install
mdr add redhat-et/ripwire/ripwire-change-check@sha256:c240cb2d49b9c4c1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.fde5074, 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.
