design-gate-audit SKILL.md skillA

design-gate-audit from arasz/ai-badger is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add arasz/ai-badger/design-gate-audit@v1.0.0

Pins v1.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when auditing a design doc's acceptance gates BEFORE implementation: check every gate would fail if the feature were broken (HONEST) and the named test file/framework/seam exists (FEASIBLE). Attacks vacuous negatives, timing-window vacuity, port races, env poisoning, unprovable real-time halves. Pairs with dotnet-hosted-service-testing for FakeTimeProvider mechanics.

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

# design-gate-audit

Auditing a design doc's acceptance criteria BEFORE implementation, so gates cannot certify broken or vacuous behavior. Pair with the loaded hosted-service skills for BackgroundService-specific mechanics (`dotnet-hosted-service-testing` for FakeTimeProvider semantics, `dotnet-hosted-service-review` for loop robustness).

## Procedure

1. **Read the design doc's gate table and work-package plan.** Every row: "would this gate fail if the feature were broken?" (HONEST) and "does the named test file / framework / helper exist?" (FEASIBLE).
2. **Verify feasibility by reading the actual test project** — never trust the doc. Check: the named test file exists, the named pattern exists in it (host-shape pins, FakeTimeProvider settles, E2E factory), the named production seam exists (host factory, DI singleton, renderer).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add arasz/ai-badger/design-gate-audit@sha256:c2f1485710254016

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.
