Quarantines an intermittently failing test behind a ticket with an owner and expiry, assigns a root-cause bucket from isolated reruns, and defines when the test leaves quarantine. Use when a test is a QUARANTINE_CANDIDATE or fails without a code change; not for deterministic failures.
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
# Quality Engineering: Flaky Triage
## **Priority: P0 (CRITICAL)**
## Entry
Only a `QUARANTINE_CANDIDATE` verdict enters triage: the test fails intermittently across isolated reruns with no code change between runs. A deterministic failure is `REAL_BUG_DO_NOT_HEAL` and goes to `dev-fix`, never here.
## Quarantine Contract
- Quarantine means the test still runs, its result is reported, and it does not gate merge; it never means `test.skip`.
- Every quarantined test carries a ticket with an owner and an expiry of at most 14 days. No ticket, no quarantine.
- On expiry: fixed and un-quarantined, or expiry extended once with a written reason, or the test is deleted with the coverage gap recorded in the coverage report. Silent expiry is forbidden.
- Record each entry in `flake_quarantine[]` as `{test, ticket, expiry, bucket}` so `test-loop` carries it in its handoff.
## Root-Cause Buckets
`ORDER_DEPENDENCE` · `SHARED_STATE` · `TIMING` · `ENVIRONMENT` · `DATA` · `PRODUCT_NONDETERMINISM`. Assign exactly one from the evidence in [Root-Cause Buckets](references/root-cause-buckets.md); `UNKNOWN` is allowed only with the reruns that were tried.

How to install
mdr add hoangnguyen0403/agent-skills-standard/quality-engineering-flaky-triage@sha256:43aec22376d71b15The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260913.6db6862, 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.
