Audit the decision before it ships. Use for "are we sure about this?", high-stakes choices made on fast intuition, plans with no failure scenario, estimates that are suspiciously optimistic, metrics being gamed (Goodhart), unfalsifiable claims, negotiation prep, or strategies that break in extreme conditions.
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
# Decision Bias Check **Problem shape:** a decision, plan, or evaluation is about to be committed and nobody has run the adversarial pass: which bias produced it, what would refute it, how it behaves in the tails, and whether the metric still measures what it was meant to. ## Relevant geniuses | Agent | Use when | |---|---| | [kahneman](../../agents/genius/kahneman.md) | fast intuition on a high-stakes call; no pre-mortem; estimate needs a reference class; an easier question was answered instead of the hard one | | [taleb](../../agents/genius/taleb.md) | exposure to volatility unclassified (fragile/robust/antifragile); improvement always by addition; decision-makers carry no downside | | [popper](../../agents/genius/popper.md) | claim has no observation that could refute it; only easy confirmations offered as evidence; plan too big to test piecemeal | | [simon](../../agents/genius/simon.md) | optimizing where satisficing is rational; the search space needs decomposing before choosing | | [boyd](../../agents/genius/boyd.md) | adversarial setting — the other side adapts; tempo and orientation matter more than the single best move | …

How to install
mdr add cdeust/zetetic-team-subagents/decision-bias-check@sha256:053360719075d64aThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261021.4372ea9, 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.
