Use when choosing native or multi-LLM handling for init, review, or security requests.
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
# Native-First Escalation Routing Use this skill when the user asks for repository initialization, code review, or security review and it is not yet clear whether Claude-native behavior is sufficient or whether Octopus escalation is warranted. ## Core Policy Claude-native first: - `/init` - `/review` - `/security-review` Octopus for escalation: - `/octo:review` - `/octo:security` - `/octo:debate` - `/octo:multi` ## Route to Claude-Native First Prefer Claude-native behavior when all of the following are true: - the request maps directly to init, review, or security review - the user did not ask for multiple model opinions - the user did not ask for Codex, Antigravity, or another provider explicitly - the task does not require adversarial debate, consensus scoring, or external-provider specialization Examples: - "initialize this repo" - "review my staged changes" - "security review this auth module" ## Escalate to Octopus Escalate when the user asks for or clearly benefits from: - multiple model opinions - adversarial review - debate between providers - provider-specific analysis - autonomous codegen verification - elevated rigor for complex or high-risk work …

How to install
mdr add nyldn/claude-octopus/skill-native-escalation-routing@sha256:33c78e1fab930faeThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260813.14437ae, 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.
