Build the standardized prompt for a fresh reviewer subagent that evaluates implemented work against its spec without access to the implementation conversation. Use after an implementer subagent completes a spec slice (when the slice is ready for REVIEWED), or after a deviation log is written (for reconciliation review). Do not use for ad-hoc code review unrelated to a spec, or for reviewing a spec's authorship (that's the READY_FOR_REVIEW step in spec-workflow).

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

> **Working posture ([ADR-0056](../../docs/decisions/adr-0056-adversarial-register-quarantine.md)).**
> Adversarial review is a *named, bounded operation.* The skeptical,
> flaw-hunting register this skill builds belongs *inside* the review passes —
> they run in isolated reviewer subagents whose context is discarded. Outside a
> review, default to collaborative and solution-forward; don't carry the
> adversarial stance into ordinary conversation.

> Spec 004 promoted this skill from stub to active. The prompt is constructed
> by `review.py`; Claude owns the Task invocation.

## What this skill does

Constructs the standardized reviewer-subagent prompt and tells Claude when /
how to spawn the Task. The skill has four modes, matching the review passes
every slice may run:

- **Implementation review** — after the implementer writes the deliverable to
  disk. The reviewer evaluates each acceptance criterion against the actual
  files; returns `pass | fail | needs-changes`. This is the **compliance
  pass** in spec-workflow's multi-pass flow.
- **Pr-review (craft pass)** — slice 031-01. After the compliance pass
  returns, the orchestrator runs a craft-pass review that produces the
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ramboz/jig/independent-review@sha256:16cca891b5885156

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261022.3383e59, 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.
