Stops defensive writing across the entire paper lifecycle — writing, revising, cutting, and organizing experiments. Treats the paper as a press conference, not a project summary, lab log, or self-audit: identify the single most publishable strength of the work and build the most favorable, complete, and persuasive narrative around it.

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.

# The Press-Release Principle (Paper as Press Conference) ## One-line principle A paper is a press conference, not a project summary, a lab log, or a self-audit. Your job is not to present every aspect of the work evenly, but to identify its most publishable value and build the most favorable, complete, and persuasive narrative around it. ## 1. Narrative rules 1. **Organize the paper around strengths only.** Look for what is genuinely ahead, unique, or irreplaceable: a new capability, a new problem, a new mechanism, a new perspective, broader applicability, lower cost, higher efficiency, better scalability, or a more meaningful trade-off.

How to install
mdr add yichen-zju/claude-for-research/anti-defensive-writing-en@sha256:49705a92677d06b1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261001.fde7ef9, 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.
