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
# EOIR — Removal Defense (Respondent Filings) > **NOT LEGAL ADVICE.** Drafting aids, scaffolds, and checklists only — not legal advice, and > no attorney-client relationship is created. **Removal proceedings are high-stakes: an order of > removal can mean permanent separation, multi-year or permanent bars to reentry, and loss of > status — and many steps (especially concessions and missed deadlines) are hard or impossible > to undo.** A licensed immigration attorney or an EOIR-accredited representative is **strongly > advised** before you plead or file anything.

How to install
mdr add codearranger/claude-legal/eoir-removal-defense@sha256:5fcd04a1cfb4f1baThe line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.1, 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.
