Blind side-by-side multi-model comparison. Send one prompt to 2-4 models simultaneously, present responses anonymously (Model A / B / C / D), let the user pick a winner, then reveal identities and show which model won. Supports custom evaluation criteria, synthesis of responses, and vote history logging. Trigger when the user says "compare models", "test these models", "which model is better for", "A/B test", "blind comparison", "model evaluation", or wants to see how different AI models…

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

# Model Compare — Blind Side-by-Side Multi-Model Testing

Send one prompt to multiple models simultaneously, present responses
anonymously, let the user pick a winner, then reveal which model is which.

Inspired by the Compare feature in PewDiePie's Odysseus project, adapted for
Hermes's multi-provider architecture (OpenRouter, NVIDIA, Ollama Cloud, any
OpenAI-compatible endpoint).

## When to use

- "Compare these models on..."
- "Which model is better for [task]?"
- "A/B test [model1] vs [model2]"
- "Blind comparison of..."
- "Test how different models handle this prompt"
- User wants to evaluate models before committing to one for a workflow
- Prompt engineering — seeing how different models interpret instructions

## When NOT to use

- **Benchmarking** (MMLU, GSM8K, etc.) → use `evaluating-llms-harness` skill
- **Cost analysis** → just check provider pricing pages
- **Single model test** → just switch model and ask directly
- **Multi-source research synthesis** → use `deep-research` skill (iterative research loop, not model comparison)

## Architecture

Four comparison modes, all driven by `scripts/compare.py`:

| Mode | Flag | What it does | API feature |
|---|---|---|---|

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add moonlight-lupin/agent-skills/model-compare@sha256:497568503a08d50d

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.2.0, 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.
