When should I use mdt-dev-smoke instead of mdt-dev-verify?

Use mdt-dev-smoke for a quick surface-level check of the installation; use mdt-dev-verify for a deeper audit of Codex readiness and runtime behavior.

Does this skill require an internet connection?

No, the smoke check is designed to run locally using shipped global scripts without needing network access or a live model session.

What does the MDT Dev Smoke skill check?

It runs automated scripts to verify tool setups and core workflows within an MDT-managed Codex environment to ensure installation surfaces are intact.

How does it handle permission errors like EPERM?

Subprocess failures caused by environment limitations (EPERM or EACCES) are reported as SKIP rather than FAIL to distinguish from broken setup files.

Security & Testing

Verifies the integrity of local Codex development environments by running automated smoke checks on tool configurations and workflows.

The mdt-dev-smoke skill provides a rapid validation layer for developers working within the MDT (Agent Harness Performance Optimization System) ecosystem. It specifically targets post-installation scenarios or suspected environment drift by executing predefined global scripts that audit tool setups and workflow surfaces. By identifying missing files or broken surfaces without requiring network access, it ensures the local environment adheres to the MDT contract before proceeding with deeper manual verification or production sessions.
