Framework evolution mode — evolves the QA boilerplate itself (KATA, fixtures, cli/, scripts/, api/schemas/ pipeline, package.json deps). Self-contained Plan → Code → Verify → Archive pipeline; needs nothing outside the repo (no SDD-* skills). Use when adding new fixture APIs, refactoring KATA base classes, evolving the installer, modifying the OpenAPI sync pipeline, or any change to the framework infrastructure that is NOT per-ticket test writing or manual QA. Triggers on…

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

# Framework Development — Evolve the QA Boilerplate

Gateway skill for changes to the framework itself: KATA layers, fixtures, installer, OpenAPI pipeline, scripts, doctrine docs. Per-ticket QA work, test specs, and TMS documentation are owned by other workflow skills (`/sprint-testing`, `/test-documentation`, `/test-automation`, `/regression-testing`) and MUST NOT trigger this skill.

The skill exists because framework-surface changes — new fixture, new layer helper, installer rewrite, manifest extractor — deserve a planning gate before code. Per-ticket test writing already has its own gate in `/test-automation` Plan → Code → Review; this skill is its architectural-surface counterpart.

---

## Compact Rules

- DO NOT: use this skill for per-ticket work — test writing is `/test-automation`, manual QA is `/sprint-testing`, TMS docs are `/test-documentation`, suite runs are `/regression-testing`. This skill governs the architectural surface only.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add upex-galaxy/agentic-qa-boilerplate/framework-development@sha256:5b5715e72fad99fe

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261005.3d9cea7, 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.
