Use as the gate when a build moves between dev, staging and production, auditing declared runtime release, dependency lockfile hash, schema head and broker endpoint. Numeric research-versus-live signal parity is research-environment-vs-production-environment-parity.

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

## When to Use

Invoke this skill at the moment a build is about to move between environments — a CI/CD
promotion step, or the pre-flight check a trading process runs before it opens its
broker socket. It answers one question: *is this environment the one this release was
approved to run in?*

The five vectors it audits are the ones whose drift produces silent, expensive failures
rather than loud ones: a Python patch release that differs from the one the strategy was
validated on, a dependency set that is not the locked set, a database missing the
migration the new code expects, mandatory configuration that never made it into the
environment, and — the one that costs real money — a paper environment wired to a live
broker endpoint.

It sits alongside `configuration-drift-detection-across-environments`, which compares a
full configuration tree key-by-key. This skill is deliberately narrower: five named
vectors, an all-or-nothing verdict, cheap enough to run on every promotion.

## When NOT to Use

- **As evidence about a running host.** Every value audited is *declared* by the caller
  in an `EnvironmentSpec`. Nothing connects to an interpreter, a database or a broker.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add himanshuj16/algo-trading-skills/environment-parity-dev-staging-production@sha256:1f70c49c828b3292

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.0, 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.
