edit-manifest skillA

edit-manifest is agent-read markdown (skill) from chrono-meta/forge-harness: Implements a predict-verify loop for harness edits. Every SKILL.md, rules/*.md, or CLAUDE.md change is paired with a predicted impact stored in a manifest. The next session verifies predictions against actual outcomes, and a validation gate accepts edits only when improvement is measurable. Runs automatically on harvest-loop Step 0-c and on explicit invocation..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add chrono-meta/forge-harness/edit-manifest@git:20260810.69d1ce6
Exact content
mdr add chrono-meta/forge-harness/edit-manifest@sha256:8b5684607f790da2

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
