Drive a failing build to passing in a disciplined loop: run the project's full gate (tests + lint + typecheck), fix one root cause, re-run the whole gate, and repeat until all three exit clean — with a hard iteration cap, no-progress detection, and a rule against cheating the gate green. Use when tests/CI are red and you want them green, when a build wave fails its checks, or as the QE inner loop under an orchestrated build. Trigger on: "fix until green", "make the tests pass", "get CI green…

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

# fix-until-green

> **A configuration of [`loop-controller`].** That skill supplies the loop
> machinery — primitive selection, the full guardrail stack, state
> externalization. This skill supplies the two things specific to "get the build
> green": a **mechanical proof** (three exit codes) and the **fix discipline**
> that keeps the loop from cheating its way there. Read `loop-controller` for the
> guardrails; they're inherited, not repeated here.
>
> **Why `disable-model-invocation`:** this loop edits and commits code on its own
> until a gate passes. You want to *type* `/fix-until-green` (or have the
> orchestrator dispatch it) — not have Claude start an autonomous edit loop
> because a test happened to fail.

## The 5-part contract

| Part | This loop |
|---|---|
| **trigger** | red suite / CI, a failed build wave, or an explicit `/fix-until-green` (optionally scoped to a path) |
| **action** | run the whole gate → read the highest-signal failure → fix **one root cause** → re-run the **whole** gate |
| **proof** | `test` exits 0 **AND** `lint` exits 0 **AND** `typecheck` exits 0 — default-FAIL (assume red until all three are observed clean **in the same run**) |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ivy00johns/skill-madness/fix-until-green@sha256:ec224d3ff89ef60a

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
