Use when running the shared drift-detection logic that backs /harness-audit and /harness-sync — produces a structured drift report covering convention files, ONBOARDING.md, snapshot staleness, constraint regressions, recurring reflection patterns, and HARNESS.md Status section accuracy.

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

# Harness Audit Engine

## Overview

The harness audit-engine is the shared drift-detection layer that both
`/harness-audit` and `/harness-sync` invoke. Audit is read-only; sync
uses the same engine to drive its multi-select prompt. This skill
defines the contract — what surfaces are scanned, the drift-report
shape, and the per-finding `[auto]` / `[manual]` classification rule.

`/harness-audit` and `/harness-sync` are the two callers. Their UX
differs (audit prints, sync prompts), but the underlying findings are
the same.

## What the engine scans

The engine evaluates every surface or fact that could be out of sync
with `HARNESS.md`. The current scan covers:

| Category | Finding | Auto-fixable? |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Convention files | `.cursor/rules/` matches HARNESS.md | yes — `/convention-sync` |
| Convention files | `.github/copilot-instructions.md` matches HARNESS.md | yes — `/convention-sync` |
| Convention files | `.windsurf/rules/` matches HARNESS.md | yes — `/convention-sync` |
| Onboarding | `ONBOARDING.md` matches HARNESS.md + AGENTS.md + REFLECTION_LOG.md | manual — `/harness-onboarding` |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add habitat-thinking/ai-literacy-superpowers/harness-audit-engine@sha256:e72809adb5a737d3

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260825.2fce5a4, 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.
