Use when the user wants a plan, design, or PRD stress-tested before any build — relentlessly interrogates one decision at a time, grounds every question in the codebase, hunts contradictions against the domain language and the code, and challenges the load-bearing assumptions. Triggered by "grill me", "stress-test this plan", "poke holes in my design". Composable — run standalone or as an adversarial pass before /plan feature.
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
# grill
Canonical skill: `skills/grill/SKILL.md`
Read that file and follow it exactly. Resolve relative links against `skills/grill/`, not this wrapper.
Cursor has no Skill tool. Treat "invoke the grill skill" as: Read `skills/grill/SKILL.md`.
The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260916.3ebf0e9, 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.
