gating skillA

gating is agent-read markdown (skill) from oaustegard/claude-skills: Build and audit deterministic verification gates — a check that blocks a pipeline and can be shown to go red. Use when writing a calibration gate, CI check, validation script or pre-publication check for a numeric or empirical result; when a plausible-but-wrong value would survive review; when asking whether an existing test, linter rule or check could actually fail; and when a suite passes first try, passes suspiciously often, or was written by whatever produced the thing it checks. Triggers on.

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add oaustegard/claude-skills/gating@v0.3.0
Exact content
mdr add oaustegard/claude-skills/gating@sha256:3fed62334d9eb61b

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
