Use this skill when an external audit, attestation examination or assessment is coming and the team wants populations and evidence ready for the samples the auditor will pull, or asks "prepare for audit sampling", "what samples will the auditor ask for", "get our populations ready", "the auditor wants a list of all changes in the period", "evidence for the leavers sample", "Type II sample prep" or "how do we prove completeness of the population". Lists the populations an auditor is likely to…
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
Use this four to eight weeks before fieldwork, or as soon as the auditor sends a request list. You get a new folder, `./auditor-sample-preparation/`, holding: a one-page index of every list of records the auditor is likely to sample from, marked ready or not ready (`populations.md`); one short file per list explaining where it came from, how it was pulled and how many items it holds (`<population>.md`); and a list of the gaps found, each with an owner and a fix (`gaps.md`). This skill drafts for a human to review and sign; this skill never marks a control effective. The auditor selects the samples; this skill only makes sure the team can answer any selection. End `populations.md` with `## Not checked`: what this run did not read or could not open, what it assumed and what it did not verify, specific to this run. ## Inputs to gather …

How to install
mdr add better-isms/grcskills/auditor-sample-preparation@sha256:fb5c226e650ba834The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.94f7f3e, 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.
