Review a GitHub stacked pull request as one unit on `<upstream>`: resolve the stack from any member PR or its stack number, check that the chain is linear and current, map every file to the layers that touch it, trace definitions removed in one layer and still used in another, and read code by tier with a coverage table instead of line by line. Drafts one rolling `COMMENT` on the lowest open layer and names the layers that deserve a `pr-management-code-review` pass. Never approves.

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.

Do this **first, before anything else in this skill**, and do it silently.
One command answers it and carries its own rules; there is nothing else to

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add apache/magpie/stack-review@sha256:b2e9fd7888618e83

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.5395957, 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.
