Run a multi-agent review of changed files for scope, reuse, quality, efficiency, clarity, and altitude issues followed by fixes. Use when the user asks to "simplify code", "review changed code", "check for code reuse", "review code quality", "review efficiency", "simplify changes", "clean up code", "refactor changes", or "run simplify".

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

# Simplify Code

Review code for scope, reuse, quality, efficiency, clarity, and altitude issues, then fix them.

## Step 1: Determine the Scope

Determine what to review:

- If a specific **diff command** was provided (e.g., `git diff --cached`), use that.
- If a **file list or directory** was provided, review those files directly (read the full files, not a diff).
- If **neither** was provided, determine the appropriate diff command (e.g., `git diff`, `git diff --cached`, `git diff HEAD`) based on the current git state. When the branch is an open pull request, resolve its base with `gh pr view --json baseRefName --jq '.baseRefName'`, run `git fetch origin <base-branch>`, and diff against `origin/<base-branch>...HEAD`: a local branch of the same name can sit behind the remote, which puts the merge base before an already-merged pull request and pulls merged work into the scope. If there are no git changes, review the most recently modified files mentioned in the conversation.

State the resolved file list before launching the agents: add `--name-only` to a diff command, or list the files for a file or directory scope.

## Step 2: Launch Six Review Agents in Parallel

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add tobihagemann/turbo/simplify-code@sha256:df85655a25fbce3c

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261022.9aca4d7, 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.
