Scoped empirical validation. Decomposes a target↔surrogate equivalence claim into facets, bounds a test space, captures evidence inside it, and carries the untested complement forward.
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
# Reduced-Space Test: Scoped Empirical Validation
Validate an inference-uncertain proposition inside a constraint-bounded stand-in space synchronized with the user, obtain a scoped resolution ("within these conditions, whether it holds, fails, or remains inconclusive"), and carry the uncovered complement forward to a follow-up protocol. This skill does not run the experiment substrate, open branches, or create PRs. It orchestrates existing protocols around one disciplined empirical move.
**This is an orchestration utility, not a runtime executor and not a new epistemic protocol.** Reduced-Space Test introduces no new interaction deficit. It realizes a known composite — decompose the target↔surrogate equivalence claim into verifiable facets, then project `/bound`'s source-grounded result into a synchronized test space and coverage complement ∘ `/inquire` for evidence inside it → scoped resolution + carried complement. It is a thin composition over existing protocols, kept outside the core protocol set because it owns no deficit of its own.

How to install
mdr add jongwony/epistemic-protocols/reduced-space-test@sha256:5f90efa5d188590dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261018.827afb9, 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.
