Turns a suspected defect into a confirmed, refuted or declaredly plausible finding — a reproduction with a control and one verdict per claim. Use when triaging code-review output, when investigating a reported bug, or before stating in a PR or an issue that something is broken.
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
# Proving a candidate A suspicion is not a finding. A candidate that goes to the author without proof spends their time and your credibility; a candidate discarded without proof leaves a defect in the air. Both mistakes are avoided the same way. ## The escalation, from the cheapest to the most expensive 1. **One command.** For each candidate, ask whether a `grep`, a `uv run python -c "..."` or a `now run` in a scratch directory closes the case. Most do, and this is where the work happens. `now` is not on the PATH and `uv run` only finds it from inside the checkout, so the form that works from a scratch directory is ```bash cd <scratch> && uv run --project <checkout> now run script.py ``` which leaves `.noworkflow/`, `.last_trial` and whatever the script writes in the scratch directory, not in the repository. 2. **One agent**, when the command did not close it. What it buys is disposable context for the iteration — building a store with the shape the candidate needs, reading the source of a dependency, following the AST rewriting through a construct — which in your context would stay forever. …

How to install
mdr add gems-uff/noworkflow/prove-candidate@sha256:5a9ee90823723da7The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261014.b631a27, 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.
