On-demand adversarial plan review of a phase PLAN.md before code - for a hand-written, imported or just-edited plan (/cad-plan fires this itself).

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

<objective>
Manually run the review subsystem's `plan` trigger against a chosen plan. The
review capability lives entirely in the subsystem (references/review-triggers.md);
this skill is just the on-demand entry
point for cases the automatic review does not cover - a plan written by hand,
imported from elsewhere, or edited after its first review. When /cad-plan
writes a plan it already fires this trigger, so you do not need this skill in the
normal flow.

There is no separate reviewer here and no convergence loop (cut in DESIGN §6):
this delegates to `fire(plan)`, which grounds and adjudicates once.
</objective>

<process>
1. **Resolve the target plan** from `$ARGUMENTS`:
   - a number `N` -> `.planning/phases/<N>/PLAN*.md` (all slices of that phase).
   - a path -> that file.
   - empty -> the current phase from the STATE.md cursor; if that is ambiguous,
     ask (ask-user seam) which phase.
   If no plan file is found, report it and stop - there is nothing to review.
   (Resolve the plan path and, for the empty-args case, the cursor read as one
   batched step - independent; conventions.md Parallel work.)

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add crenshawdev/cadence/cad-plan-review@sha256:4e7d1c5d446a9496

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261029.0ae5ff0, 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.
