After a feature or refactor on this Windows estate, run six checks in order and write a PASS or FAIL note before a draft pull request. Use when work is about to be committed, pushed, or handed to another harness.

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

# Estate verification loop

Run the checks in this order. Stop at the first hard failure. Record a result for every check you could not run. A missing tool is not a pass.

1. Install and build with the repo's package manager. Prefer `pnpm` when `pnpm-lock.yaml` is present. Prefer `uv` for Python. Do not switch the repo to npm because a snippet says `npm run build`.
2. Types. For TypeScript, `pnpm exec tsc --noEmit` from the package that owns the change. For Python, `uv run pyright` only when that project already uses it.
3. Lint with the formatter the repo already configured. Do not add a new linter config to make this step green.
4. Tests the change can affect. State the command, the pass count, and the fail count from the tool output.
5. Secret scan of the diff for private-key blocks, `sk-ant`, GitHub token prefixes, and Slack token prefixes. Reading a local env file during development is normal on this machine. Committing one is not.
6. `git diff --stat` against the branch you will push. Name the files. Confirm you did not sweep another agent's untracked work.

## How to score

- Build, types, and tests are hard gates when those tools exist for the files you changed.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add frankxai/claude-skills-library/verification-loop@sha256:4e7b85f2b5716fb7

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261011.854bb48, 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.
