Run an internal research critique with likely objections, severity, and a concrete revision plan. Use when the user asks to review a paper, preprint, draft, or research artifact — their own or someone else's.
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
# Research Review Review the AI research artifact the user names (arXiv ID, URL, local file, PDF, Markdown, etc.). Derive a short slug from the artifact name (lowercase, hyphens, no filler words, ≤5 words). Use this slug for all files in this run. This is an execution request, not a request to explain or implement the workflow instructions. Carry out the workflow with tools and durable files. Do not answer by describing the protocol, saying what you would do, or stopping after a plan. Do not ask for confirmation. Briefly summarize the plan to the user and continue immediately unless the user explicitly asked to review the plan first. ## Tools (Claude Code) - Web search: `WebSearch`. Fetch pages: `WebFetch`. - Academic papers: the `alphaxiv` MCP tools — `discover_papers` (search), `get_paper_content` (read), `answer_pdf_queries` (Q&A on a paper's PDF), `read_files_from_github_repository` (paper code). If these tools are not visible, fall back to WebSearch/WebFetch on arxiv.org and record the degradation. - PDFs: read them with the Read tool (page ranges) or `pdftotext` via Bash. - Subagents: the `Agent` tool with `subagent_type` `researcher` / `reviewer`. …

How to install
mdr add yichen-zju/claude-for-research/research-review@sha256:b2df3a7f8212c325The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261014.9f2a5e0, 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.
