Comment (by nickm):

 Sure! The context here is that Chutney
 (https://github.com/torproject/chutney) is a program that runs a small Tor
 network on your desktop.  Part of its functionality is to see whether the
 network has successfully bootstrapped or not.  In #33232 (specifically
 #33379), there's work to see whether relays have the information they need
 in order to use the network.  But that work doesn't cover the kind of
 information called a "microdescriptor".  Microdescriptors are more fully
 documented in dir-spec.txt in the tor specifications directory.  As part
 of this ticket, you'd want to extend the work of #33379 to check for
 microdescriptors as well.

 Teor, is there more that anuradha1904 should know here?  Would it make
 sense to share a link to your existing #33379 work-in-progress, so they
 have something to base theirs on?
