Independent review of current work or a past session. USE WHEN a user wants a second opinion. DO NOT USE WHEN ordinary code review is wanted — use code-review.

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

# Second Opinion

Request a read-only review from the reviewer configuration the user chooses.
The job is simple: resolve that intent against available configuration and model
inventory, assemble an evidence brief, delegate to that provider and model, and
report the review.

## Usage

Ask in natural language:

```text
/second-opinion Have OpenAI review this work using its configured default.
/second-opinion Have the latest model in the family I named and my fast reviewer review independently.
/second-opinion Ask my configured design-review model to review decisions from session <session ID>.
/second-opinion Use the reviewers we named, with up to twenty running at once.
```

The examples are illustrative. A bare request reviews current work but needs a
reviewer choice. Honor an explicit selector, relevant user context, and a
configured default in that order. If intent cannot safely identify an endpoint
or known model, ask **one** plain question, for example, “Which reviewers should
I ask?” Do not select an arbitrary provider or substring match. Reuse an earlier
explicit reviewer selection only when it is unambiguous. When an inferred,
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add microsoft/amplifier-bundle-skills/second-opinion@sha256:2c9156ad0794f0f9

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.4.0, 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.
