Stop repeated failed writing, coding, manuscript, rebuttal, or restructuring revisions when the same issue has gone through 3+ unsatisfactory edits, vague feedback such as still wrong/weird/unclear/weak/越改越乱, version contamination, or possible gap/claim/evidence/venue-fit drift.
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
# /revision-escalation - 3-Strike Revision Control ## Purpose Prevent repeated local patches from making a draft or code path more inconsistent. Use this when the issue may no longer be wording or implementation detail, but specification, structure, evidence, or version-control drift. ## Trigger Words This skill activates on: `revision escalation`, `3-strike`, `three strikes`, `stop and diagnose`, `still wrong`, `still weird`, `unclear`, `weak`, `越改越乱`, `还是不对`, `还是怪`, `不够清楚`, `逻辑还是混乱`, `/revision-escalation`. ## Core Rule If the same issue remains unresolved after 3 revision attempts, treat it as a specification or structure problem before treating it as another local editing task. Do not make a fourth patch immediately. Repeated feedback that the manuscript is becoming more abstract, no longer states who it helps, or contains individually correct sentences without a recognisable paper spine is a structural signal even when fewer than three formal edit contracts have failed. Pause and compare the current draft with the author-intent and argument baselines. ## Revision Escalation Check Before editing again, classify the problem: | Category | Meaning | Next action | …

How to install
mdr add yha9806/academic-writing-toolkit/revision-escalation@sha256:1921bc954700e0f3The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260905.68bae2c, 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.
