alpha-judge from tonydzi/second-brain-starter-kit is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add tonydzi/second-brain-starter-kit/alpha-judge@git:20261007.cd6c208Pins git:20261007.cd6c208 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

LLM-judge stage of an alpha-mining pipeline: take a miner's deterministic candidate list, keep only real signal, drop noise, and propose additions to that miner's curated note. Use after any zero-token detector run. Reads only the candidate digest and the home note, never the corpus. Triggers: "/alpha-judge <miner>", "judge the candidates".
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
# 🅰️⚖️ /alpha-judge — the reusable LLM-judge for every alpha miner > 🧒 **When reporting to a non-technical operator:** end with a child-simple "In plain words" recap in their language (their standing request; reports TO the operator only). The alpha-extraction engine = **cheap deterministic detector (0 tokens) → LLM judge → weekly ≤10 + yes/no calibration**, repeated for each of the 10 miners. The DETECTORS are per-miner scripts in `$IMPORTS_ROOT/alpha/`. The JUDGE is the SAME logic every time — so it lives HERE, once, and is reused. Canon: `02-Decisions\decision-alpha-extraction-engine-variant-a`; memory [[alpha-extraction-engine]]. ## Model policy (per [[model-routing-sonnet-grunt]] + the operator's 2026-06-14 session override) - **In-session, now:** judge on **Opus** (the operator steers; he'll say when to switch to Sonnet as Opus nears its limit). …

How to install
mdr add tonydzi/second-brain-starter-kit/alpha-judge@sha256:f7df34cb0464792bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261007.cd6c208, 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.
