Get an independent review of code you just wrote by spawning a fresh reviewer instance — a separate one-shot agent session with read-only tools that cannot see your reasoning. Use this immediately after finishing ANY implementation — a feature, a bugfix, a refactor, a migration, a schema change — before you tell the user the work is done. Also use whenever the user says "review this", "double-check that", "get a second opinion", "have another agent look at it", or asks whether an…
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
# Second opinion Spawn an independent reviewer — a fresh model instance that cannot see your reasoning — to review the implementation you just finished, triage what it finds, and fix the real bugs. ## Why this catches things you cannot catch yourself When you re-read code you just wrote, you check it against your intent. You remember what each line was *for*, so you read the intent into the code and skip right over the place where the code says something slightly different. That is not carelessness — it is unavoidable. You cannot un-know your own plan. A fresh reviewer has no plan to un-know. It sees only the task and the code, so a gap between them shows up as a gap. That is the entire mechanism, and it is also why the one thing that ruins this technique is leaking your reasoning into the review packet. ## The rule that makes or breaks it **Give the reviewer the spec and the code. Never give it your justifications.** Concretely, keep all of these out of the packet: - "I handled the empty case by …" — if the handling is real, the reviewer will see it in the code; if you have to point at it, that is exactly the claim worth testing …

How to install
mdr add arcasilesgroup/ai-engineering/second-opinion@sha256:d6d6d601a43858acThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261106.9932b24, 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.
