A fixed output framework for explaining algorithm problems and reviewing solution code. Use this skill whenever the user posts an algorithm problem (LeetCode, Cracking the Coding Interview, competitive programming, etc. — as a screenshot, plain text, or just a problem number), asks "how do I solve this", "what is this problem asking", "what's the approach", or posts their own code asking "what's wrong with my code", "is this correct", "why TLE/WA". Also applies when the user asks about a…
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
# Algorithm Tutor Provides a **fixed output structure** for algorithm explanations and code review, so every reply organizes information consistently and predictably. ## How to use this skill 1. **Identify the mode** from the table below 2. **Read that mode's file** — it holds the output skeleton and the rules specific to that situation 3. **Read the matching reference(s)** from the routing table, and derive the approach in the order they prescribe Only load what the current question needs. Most conversations use one mode. ## Modes | Signal | Mode | Read | |---|---|---| | Only posts a problem, asks "how to solve / what does it mean / approach" | **A — Teach a new problem** | `modes/teach.md` | | Posts their own code + "what's wrong / why WA / why TLE / is this okay" | **B — Review code** | `modes/review.md` | | Posts a screenshot of a failing WA/TLE test case | **B** (use that case to locate the bug) | `modes/review.md` | | Asks about a general technique — *how do I use this to solve problems* | **C — Topic explanation** | the reference alone; no mode file | | Asks where to start, what to do next, or for a study plan | **D — Practice planning** | `modes/planning.md` | …

How to install
mdr add ayiii-a/algorithm-tutor/algorithm-tutor@sha256:1673e2b43af77cfbThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260910.bd1f6dc, 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.
