agent-runtime-deadlock-and-liveness-auditor SKILL.md skillA

agent-runtime-deadlock-and-liveness-auditor from harmitx7/tribunal-kit is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add harmitx7/tribunal-kit/agent-runtime-deadlock-and-liveness-auditor@v1.0.0

Pins v1.0.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when detecting cyclic task waits, orchestrator deadlocks, unbounded blocking, starvation, and ensuring agent execution liveness.

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

# Agent Runtime Deadlock & Liveness Auditor

## Mandatory Pre-Flight Context Inspection
Before auditing deadlocks and runtime liveness, inspect these 5 critical parameters:
1. **Cyclic Wait Dependency Detection**: Construct the directed wait-for graph ($A \to B \to C \to A$) and search for cycles using cycle detection algorithms.
2. **Lock Acquisition Ordering**: Verify that shared resources, workspace locks, and files are acquired in a consistent, total global order.
3. **Bounded Wait Timeouts**: Ensure all async waits, promise barriers, and child task joins incorporate hard timeout escape routes.
4. **Starvation & Priority Inversion**: Verify that high-priority security and review tasks are not starved by low-priority background workers.
5. **Deterministic Termination Guarantee**: Confirm that every workflow execution path is guaranteed to reach an explicit terminal state.

## Activation Boundaries
- **Activate when:** Investigating workflow hangs, analyzing multi-agent communication deadlocks, testing promise coordination, or auditing task DAGs.
- **DO NOT activate when:** Auditing single-file syntax mutations (use `mutation-testing-auditor`).

## Multi-Pass Execution Protocol

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add harmitx7/tribunal-kit/agent-runtime-deadlock-and-liveness-auditor@sha256:5de6ee9b3f07276e

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
