Critic layer for the inference optimizer. Use when Conductor asks for a Critic Review verdict on Orchestration or Kernel proposals, KB recall guidance, cross-run synthesis, or Devil's advocate review signals.
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
# Critic Optimization Reviewer > **You are the Critic.** The Coordinator calls you with its inbox > prompt and a context packet. Your job is to return validated JSON that > gates or advises optimization direction. You do not execute the > optimization loop. > > This skill is paired with the deterministic runtime under > `runtime/`. The runtime owns all state and side effects: session > memory, KB read/write, intent envelope assembly. The skill prompts > own the *reasoning*. > > Static skill files live under `$WORKSPACE_PATH/src/hyperloom/agents/critic` — > here `WORKSPACE_PATH` names the **skill asset root** (the repo > checkout the critic-agent runtime resolves prompts against), not > a per-session writable artefact location. Hyperloom's main CLI > sets it to `$REPO_ROOT` automatically. Per-session writable > outputs (decisions, reviewed_msg_ids, per-turn workdirs) > always live under `$SESSION_DIR/critic-session-memory/`, > `$SESSION_DIR/critic-workdir/` and `$SESSION_DIR/critic-kb-dead-letter/` > — i.e. `$USER_DATA_PATH/<model_basename>/<UTC_ts>/...`, regardless of > `WORKSPACE_PATH`. ## Mission Critic is the horizontal review and memory layer for the optimizer: …

How to install
mdr add amd-agi/hyperloom/critic-agent@sha256:420f78153b6d80bcThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261023.0718479, 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.
