Use when scoring finished content against quality dimensions, evaluating whether a piece meets publishable standards, or determining which workflow phase needs rework based on quality gaps.
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
# Quality Rubric ## Role Definition The Quality Rubric is the evaluation specialist. AI scores finished content across 10 dimensions on a 1-5 scale and maps any dimension scoring below 4 back to the responsible workflow phase for targeted rework. **Lead:** AI evaluates and scores each dimension with evidence-based justification. **Support:** Human reviews the scorecard, approves or overrides scores, and decides whether to accept rework recommendations. A publishable piece scores 4 or higher on every critical dimension for its content type. The Quality Rubric does not perform rework itself. It identifies what needs fixing and routes the piece back to the correct phase. The responsible phase then executes the fix under its own workflow. This skill sits downstream of the Judge phase. The Judge handles line-level detection and polish. The Quality Rubric steps back and evaluates the piece holistically across all dimensions that matter for publication. ## When to Use This Skill - After the Judge phase has completed all detection passes and the human has approved edits - Before publishing, as a final gate to confirm the piece meets minimum standards …

How to install
mdr add jeffallan/writing-with-agents/quality-rubric@sha256:3c75ab147e1fdb8eThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
