Use when a consequential decision has two plausible, materially different options and you are about to pick one. Runs two opposed reviewers on the same evidence with a stated round cap, then hands the human a synthesis that names the deciding evidence.
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
# agent-debate A bounded adversarial review of one consequential trade-off. Debate makes the evidence visible to the decision maker; it does not settle truth by vote and does not authorize implementation. ## Use only when - both options are plausible and materially different; - the decision is consequential enough to justify two independent reviewers; - identifiable evidence could inform or falsify each side. Do not debate a factual question that a direct check can settle, a naming preference, or a decision an authorized human already made. ## Setup 1. Write one evidence packet: the decision and who owns it, the two positions as testable statements, shared evidence paths, and the criteria for judging. Template: [references/debate_protocol.md](references/debate_protocol.md). 2. Launch two `reviewer` lanes in parallel, one position each, both on a strong model tier, both read-only, both with the same packet. Each argues the strongest form of its side and cites evidence. 3. State the round cap before launch and stop there. A rebuttal round, if the cap allows one, answers the other side's strongest point. In harness …

How to install
mdr add wenyuchiou/agent-collab-skills/agent-debate@sha256:601596a409db99c0The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.a802ce4, 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.
