Plans without measurable success criteria drift into wishful thinking:.
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
# Falsifiability Test Pattern ## The Problem Plans without measurable success criteria drift into wishful thinking: - "Improve performance" — how much? by when? - "Better user experience" — measured how? - "Reduce tech debt" — which debt? how will we know? ## The Solution Every deferred or speculative work item declares a measurable rule for success/failure. ```markdown ## Feature: Caching Layer **Hypothesis**: Adding Redis caching will reduce API latency by 50%. **Falsifiability Test**: - Measure: p95 latency for /api/users endpoint - Baseline: 450ms (measured 2026-04-20) - Target: <225ms - Window: 30 days post-deployment - Decision rule: If p95 > 300ms after 30 days, revert and investigate **Evidence collection**: Datadog dashboard, weekly snapshots ``` ## Template ```markdown ## [Feature/Change Name] **Hypothesis**: [What you believe will happen] **Falsifiability Test**: - Measure: [Specific metric] - Baseline: [Current value with date] - Target: [Success threshold] - Window: [Time to evaluate] - Decision rule: [What to do if fails] **Evidence collection**: [How you'll gather data] ``` ## Good vs Bad Tests | Bad | Good | |-----|------| …

How to install
mdr add fabioc-aloha/alex_skill_mall/falsifiability-test-pattern@sha256:45050e4e574c09d0The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260728.80a7ab6, 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.
