Ticket-free exploratory testing of a critical flow, a module or the whole product, across UI, API and DB together, in the Execution stage. Runs a charter, a parallel reconnaissance fan-out, a refutation pass whose job is to kill each finding, a main-thread tie-break, and a handoff where every candidate scenario is executed live, marked NEW / WEAK / COVERED against existing coverage (the coverage gap list, or the KATA manifest plus the TMS), and marked `oracle: observed` until a person confirms…
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
## Forbidden invocations **NEVER invoke `/sdd-*` skills from this workflow.** SDD is an optional user-installed ceremony; this skill ships self-contained and does not chain SDD under any condition. If you need to refactor KATA, fixtures, cli/, scripts/, or api/schemas/ pipeline, exit this skill first and invoke `/framework-development`. This boundary is mechanical, not advisory: `scripts/lint-skills.ts` rejects any `/sdd-` mention outside this section. See: `.agents/skills/agentic-qa-core/references/skill-composition-strategy.md` §4 (governs users who manually install SDD). # Exploratory Testing — Find Bugs, Discover Test Candidates, Without a Ticket Freestyle but precise testing across a critical flow, a module, or the whole product: UI, API and DB together, never one alone. No ticket required. This skill hunts for real bugs in the highest-risk surfaces (data integrity and security first) and produces candidate scenarios that were **executed live** and **checked against existing coverage**, so `test-documentation` receives new work, not a second copy of what the repository already holds. …

How to install
mdr add upex-galaxy/agentic-qa-boilerplate/exploratory-testing@sha256:adb7faa2699100c2The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261024.867f875, 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.
