Orchestrate a feature or PR end-to-end as the lead — dispatch implementation to a delegate family based on task risk, model capability, and remaining quota; run bounded adversarial-review rounds with cross-family reviewers; verify everything independently; and hold the merge gate. Use when the user wants a whole feature/fix delegated and supervised, rather than a single implement or review pass.
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
# Dev lead: dispatch → implement → adversarial rounds → merge gate
This is the orchestration layer over the twelve family skills:
`{claude,codex,agy,opencode,grok,cursor}-implement` and
`{claude,codex,agy,opencode,grok,cursor}-adversarial-review`. It adds no new
mechanics —
it decides who does what, how many rounds, and when to stop. Read the
underlying skill before invoking it; every operational gotcha (sandbox
allow-lists, workspace traps, silent-death modes, status commands that lie)
lives there and is not repeated here.
The lead role itself is portable: all six CLIs can read the same skills
directory (symlink the others' skills paths to Claude's), and the
`claude-implement`/`claude-adversarial-review` skills supply the missing
direction — Claude as a worker for a codex or agy lead. A codex-led run has
been completed end-to-end (the interactive codex CLI as lead, briefed by a
pilot doc, ran capability probes first and delivered through the merge gate).
The distinction that makes this work: **capability is a property of the
RUNTIME, not the brand** — a companion's restricted sandbox may be unable to
commit in a worktree while the same vendor's interactive CLI under an

How to install
mdr add aarontzeng/dev-lead/dev-lead@sha256:6b728ca3c202f489The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261018.d5ba9d5, 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.
