Use when adversarial brainstorming is needed after reconnaissance — the Proposer, Devils-Advocate, and Synthesizer each run ONE pass (no rounds); the Don is grilled on the IDEA first, one question at a time, then the proposal is attacked.
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
# The Grilling: Adversarial Brainstorming ## Overview The Grilling is a single-pass Multi-Agent Debate. The Proposer proposes, the Devils-Advocate attacks (idea first, then proposal), the Synthesizer revises. There are NO rounds — each agent runs exactly once. The Don is interrogated **one question at a time**, never a list. The IDEA is grilled before the proposal. ## Trigger Invoked after the Don approves the Reconnaissance Dossier (Reconnaissance complete). ## HARD RULES (non-negotiable) 1. **No rounds.** Each agent — Proposer, Devils-Advocate, Synthesizer — runs exactly ONCE. Do not loop back. There is no Round 2. 2. **Idea first.** The Devils-Advocate attacks the Don's objective (the IDEA) before attacking the proposal. The Don is grilled on the idea — framing, assumptions, scope, analogues from the Recon Dossier — before any architecture is proposed. 3. **One question at a time.** Every interaction with the Don asks exactly ONE question. Wait for the answer before asking the next. This overrides any subagent output that bundles questions. See Don Interrogation Protocol below. …

How to install
mdr add kucherenko/gangsta/the-grilling@sha256:ecb85ce392df7ae5The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260712.dd0012f, 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.
