Evaluate an article, paper, or post for lessons that could improve directive. Analyzes two axes: how concepts improve directive's own implementation, and how they improve the projects directive creates. Produces filtered suggestions, iterates with the user, and optionally creates GitHub issues on the directive repo. Use when evaluating an article, paper, post, or URL for directive improvements, or when the user says "analyze this article", "evaluate this article", or…

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.

# Deft Article Review

Evaluate an article, paper, or blog post for lessons that could improve directive —

## Framework inventory pointer (#5694)

Use live indexes — not a hand-maintained summary — to judge whether article ideas are novel or already covered.

- ! Run `npx deft packs:slice skills list` (or local `.\node_modules\.bin\deft packs:slice skills list`) before claiming a skill/mechanism gap
- ! Read `main.md` **Rule Authority** and **Thin Fail-Closed Design** before proposing a new gate, check, or parallel surface

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add deftai/directive/deft-directive-article-review@sha256:f3c8f8b4486a52e6

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261018.106aa3e, 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.
