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

# Reaper

AI-native scientific research pipeline distributed as a host-agnostic skills package. Each pipeline stage is a `SKILL.md` folder that runs on any AI coding agent supporting the [skills convention](https://github.com/vercel-labs/skills) — Cursor, OpenAI Codex CLI, Cline, Continue, Gemini CLI, Copilot, Windsurf, Claude Code, and 40+ others. Takes a research goal — optionally with a research paper — and autonomously runs a multi-step research loop. Ships with reference files for cryptography and distributed systems, but the skills themselves are domain-agnostic — swap the reference files to adapt to other research domains.

## Project structure

- `skills/` — 10 composable skills (each has a `SKILL.md` defining its behavior; the `/<skill>` form is the canonical display convention used in all user-facing docs)
  - `/reaper` — Main orchestrator that chains all other skills
  - `/clarify-goal` — Interactive goal clarification (asks user targeted questions before pipeline runs)
  - `/analyze-paper`, `/review-literature`, `/formalize-problem`, `/brainstorm`, `/investigate`, `/critique`, `/write-paper` — Pipeline stages

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add sebastianelvis/reaper/CLAUDE.md@sha256:5e35d52aca33512b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260912.18b334b, 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.
