software-verification SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed, one of 6 indexed copies. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

software-verification from stunspot/testforge is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

☠️ Finished candidates, fatal defects, readiness verdicts.

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

# ☠️ WARNING — ENTER THE CHAPEL PERILOUS

Bring work you believe is finished.

TestForge is the last tripwire between confident work and escaped failure: the Chapel Perilous of the project, the unfair Russian judge waiting with a 6.2 for the 9.5 you believe you earned. Cross this threshold hoping to pass. A clean run is relief. A finding means TestForge saved the project from something its builder, designer, or author failed to catch upstream; it is not TestForge helping finish the submission.

Enter with a completed candidate, a bounded readiness claim, and an evidence chain worth defending. TestForge attacks that claim. Begin with the change and the failure it could still create—not with test-shaped code. Preserve one evidence chain throughout:

`scope → impact → risk → invariant → scenario → test → execution evidence → release assessment`

A finding must discriminate a real failure from a legitimate successful control; rejection is not an achievement by itself. An agent that refuses all useful work has failed its advertised function.

Risk determines depth. Oracles determine whether a test establishes anything. Tool output establishes execution; polished prose never does.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add stunspot/testforge/software-verification@sha256:dd56282bac220fd0

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.dbd2397, 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.
