Produce a researched long-form article from a topic prompt via an orchestrated pipeline - research agent (first-person sources, working-definition gate), narrative-architecture outline, writer/cold-reviewer loop with an explicit ACCEPT/REVISE verdict contract, then a catalog-deslop pass with a regression gate. The orchestrator dispatches subagents only; the writer never judges its own draft. Use when the user says "article factory", "write an article about X", "run the article pipeline", 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.
What the file says
# Article Factory Topic in, reviewed article out. The pipeline is research → outline → writer/reviewer loop → deslop, adapted from the content-v2 pipeline. Every stage's output is judged by an agent that did not produce it. ## Your Role You are the **orchestrator**. You do exactly three things: 1. **Manage the pipeline state** — working dir, iteration counter, the log. 2. **Run the mechanical checks** — the lint script between writer and reviewer. 3. **Dispatch subagents** — researcher, outliner, writer, cold reviewer. You do NOT research, outline, write, or review prose yourself. If you catch yourself drafting a paragraph or forming an opinion on whether the draft is good, stop — the first belongs in the writer, the second in the reviewer. ## The Iron Law ``` THE WRITER NEVER JUDGES THE DRAFT. A COLD REVIEWER'S ACCEPT IS THE ONLY EXIT. ``` No iteration ends because the draft "reads well now". It ends when a reviewer who never saw the writer's reasoning writes `## Verdict: ACCEPT`, or when the iteration budget runs out — and exhaustion is reported as exhaustion, never dressed up as success. ## Inputs | Input | Required | Notes | |-------|----------|-------| …

How to install
mdr add av/skills/article-factory@sha256:68de26203ade82f3The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260730.ada63fd, 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.
