Produces a binary-vote comparison matrix (every pair judged A-beats-B), a derived ranking, and a consistency check, ordering options without any criteria axis or absolute scoring. Use when items must be ranked but no defensible scale or articulable criteria exist. Not a criteria-weighted option matrix and not a base-rate forecast.
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
<!-- thinking-framework-skills | https://github.com/product-on-purpose/thinking-framework-skills | Apache-2.0 --> # Pairwise Comparison Ranking a set of options holistically forces an unstable judgment: "rank these six from best to worst" or "score each from 1 to 10" demands a fixed internal scale and a memory of how earlier items were scored, and that scale wobbles. Pairwise comparison replaces the one hard holistic ranking with a series of isolated two-item judgments. For every pair it asks the single easier question - which of these two is better? - then tallies each item's wins into a matrix and reads the ranking off the tally. The durable move is psychophysical: a person (or an agent) holds a far more stable signal for "A beats B" than for "A is a 7," because the binary judgment needs no absolute scale and no criteria axis. The matrix also exposes its own quality - a cycle (A beats B, B beats C, C beats A) is a visible inconsistency to revisit, not a hidden error. …

How to install
mdr add product-on-purpose/thinking-framework-skills/think-pairwise-comparison@sha256:4b1aad6f46b005f0The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, 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.
