HawkScan scan-quality (post-scan quality gate) reference: run after every scan and rescan, before findings become fix tasks. Derives a fresh coverage expectation each run (spec-wired or route-inventory), the four coverage checks, and a bounded, additive-only stackhawk.yml config iteration to close gaps — never blocks a real finding from being reported and fixed.
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
# Scan Quality Reference Run this gate after **every** scan — full scans and rescans alike — before findings are parsed into fix tasks (SKILL.md calls it Step 4.5, sitting between Step 3's scan run and Step 4's fix-task generation). It is a feedback loop into config tuning, **not a governor**: gate state never blocks a finding from being reported and fixed. A thin scan that only reached a fraction of the surface can still have found something real, and that finding gets fixed now, regardless of what the gate says. The gate's job is narrower: notice when a scan almost certainly missed API surface, and drive a bounded, additive config fix so the *next* scan reaches more of it. The gate derives its expectation fresh every time it runs. There is no persisted plan or prior-run state to compare against — recompute the expected surface from the repo and the effective config each time, the same way discovery would if run again right now. **Multi-config execution.** When a repo has more than one `stackhawk.yml` surface (discovery writes one config per surface, ordered by DAST value — primary or backing API first, a SPA …

How to install
mdr add stackhawk/agent-skills/cursor/.cursor/rules/stackhawk-hawkscan-scan-quality.mdc@sha256:777b1e1a81f463f6The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.6ebff33, 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.
