Run a challenger persona against the substance of any chain artefact — bare = persona roster.

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

Challenger personas live as `.claude/agents/challenger-<persona>.md` —
one isolated agent per persona, each defined by the blind spots it
exists to find, said in its `description`; the roster is the scan of
those files. Adding a persona means adding an agent file from
`templates/challenger-definition.md`; this command does not change (who creates
a persona, and when: CLAUDE.md, Isolated reviewers).

Shared behaviour: the contract skill named in each persona file's
front-matter (CLAUDE.md, Isolated reviewers). This command only
chooses the persona, passes the target and verifies the bookkeeping.

**Bare `/challenge` — the roster.** List the available personas (scan
`.claude/agents/challenger-*.md`) and recommend which fits the
project's subject. A recommendation, never a gate.

**`/challenge <persona> [artefact|path] [slug]` — run it.** The target
is an artefact named as `/forge` names it, or any file of the project by
its path (CLAUDE.md, Isolated reviewers); how it narrows the run is the
contract's and the persona file's. Invoke the `challenger-<persona>`
subagent on the project (infer it from context; if ambiguous, ask),
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add pche-broken-artist/forge-of-thought/challenge@sha256:f703e7e2e409a3d9

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261017.7179109, 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.
