A test fixture that intentionally fails Pass-2 checks.

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

# /known-bad — Auditor FAIL test fixture

This SKILL.md passes Pass 1 (frontmatter is structurally valid and name matches dir) but intentionally violates Pass-2 content-discipline checks. The auditor should return verdict FAIL with at least one fail-severity finding.

## How to use

Run the auditor and expect FAIL exit 1.

## Examples

```bash
bash skills/skill-builder/scripts/audit.sh tests/fixtures/skills/known-bad
```

Note: there is intentionally no `## ⚠️ Critical Constraints` section, no `**Why:**` rationales, no `## Output Specification`, no `## Quality Rubric`, and no `Checkpoint:` markers. These omissions exercise multiple Pass-2 checks. The single FAIL severity check (`output-spec-explicit`) drives the FAIL verdict.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add boshu2/agentops/known-bad@sha256:0a9374f99412c532

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260716.9aff5df, 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.
