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
# Skills Testing Guide
> **For AI Agents**: This document provides patterns and conventions for creating and maintaining tests for azure-skills plugin. When asked to "scaffold tests" for a skill, follow the instructions below.
## Scaffolding Tests for a Skill
When a user asks to scaffold, create, or add tests for a skill, follow these steps:
### Step 1: Read the vally-eval skill
Skills in azure-skills plugin use [vally](https://microsoft.github.io/vally/get-started/) to run integration tests that run prompts against an LLM Agent and evaluate the outcome. The vally-eval skill provides the knowledge on where to add the test code, how to run the tests and where to collect the test results. Combine the instructions in vally-eval skill, the official documentation of vally and the rest of the instructions in this file to learn how to write vally eval suites for azure-skills plugin.
### Step 2: Read the skill's SKILL.md
Load the file at `plugins/{plugin}/skills/{skill-name}/SKILL.md` to understand:
- The skill's name and description (from frontmatter)
- What the skill does (from content)
- What Azure services/tools it references
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add microsoft/github-copilot-for-azure/tests/AGENTS.md@sha256:f341cd28c5eef647The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260923.0403a05, 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.
