Not invoked from user context — dispatched by the simmer orchestrator and simmer-judge-board panelists. Scores a candidate artifact against user-defined criteria on a 1-10 scale and produces an ASI (highest-leverage direction) for the next generator round.
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
# Simmer Judge Score the candidate against each criterion. Identify the highest-leverage direction to pursue next. Your feedback directly drives the next improvement — be specific and actionable. ## Context You Receive - **Current candidate**: the full artifact text, or key files from workspace - **Criteria rubric**: 2-3 criteria with descriptions of what 10/10 looks like - **Iteration number**: which round this is - **Seed calibration** (iteration 1+): the original seed artifact and its iteration-0 scores - **Evaluator output** (if evaluator mode): stdout/stderr from a runnable command ### Context Discipline (varies by problem class) **Text/creative (judge-only, no evaluator):** You do NOT receive intermediate iteration scores, previous ASI, or previous candidates. You receive only the seed as a fixed calibration reference. This prevents score anchoring on subjective judgments. **Code/testable and pipeline/engineering (evaluator present):** You receive additional context to enable strategic reasoning: - **Previous ASI**: what direction was suggested last round - **Iteration history**: condensed trajectory (scores + key changes per iteration, not full candidates) …

How to install
mdr add 2389-research/simmer/simmer-judge@sha256:9eefe57bfef81da8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260706.3f264f4, 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.
