The GraphQL attack-surface / hardening skill: crafts over-limit depth and complexity queries then asserts rejection before execution, verifying that graphql-depth-limit, graphql-cost-analysis, and graphql-armor (max-depth / cost-limit / max-tokens plugins) are actually enforced and not just configured; carries the introspection attack-surface catalog (what __schema exposes, per-framework disable controls, hideSchemaDetailsFromClientErrors) in references/introspection.md and the persisted-query…

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

# graphql-complexity-limit-tester

## Overview

The introspection attack-surface catalog
([references/introspection.md](references/introspection.md)) names
query-depth limiting and query-cost limiting as key DoS mitigations, but
nothing in that catalog executes a test. This skill closes that gap: it
authors tests that send an over-limit query and assert a validation error
is returned _before_ any resolver runs. The strongest request-layer
mitigation - persisted-query allowlisting - is cataloged in
[references/persisted-queries.md](references/persisted-queries.md).

Three library families are covered:

- `graphql-depth-limit` (npm: `graphql-depth-limit`, canonical repo
  `github.com/stems/graphql-depth-limit`, per npm registry
  [registry.npmjs.org/graphql-depth-limit](https://registry.npmjs.org/graphql-depth-limit/latest))
  - `depthLimit(n)` validation rule, drop-in for Apollo or express-graphql.
- `graphql-cost-analysis` (npm: `graphql-cost-analysis`, repo
  `github.com/pa-bru/graphql-cost-analysis`, per
  [github.com/pa-bru/graphql-cost-analysis](https://github.com/pa-bru/graphql-cost-analysis))
  - `costAnalysis({ maximumCost })` validation rule; queries above the

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add testland/qa/graphql-complexity-limit-tester@sha256:beab214c527b4685

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.4.4, 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.
