Use when a manuscript you wrote is nearly finished and needs a hostile read before it is submitted, including a mock review, a simulated reviewer panel, a pre-submission review, red-team the paper, asking whether this would get rejected, or checking which reviewer objection the paper cannot survive. Use for your own unsubmitted manuscript; reviewing someone else's submission as an invited referee is a different task.
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
# Run a Cold Review Panel Read your own manuscript with reviewers that have never seen the project. The value comes entirely from what they do not know: an author's summary of the work repairs, in the reading, exactly the gaps a reviewer would have fallen into. The panel is inbound. The manuscript is yours and has not been submitted. ## Select one mode | Mode | Responsibility | Read first | |---|---|---| | `isolation-manifest` | Construct and prove the reviewers' context, from the filesystem rather than from assertion | `references/isolation.md` | | `lens-assignment` | Assign the reading lenses and the model families that carry them | `references/lenses.md` | | `artifact-execution` | Have one reviewer actually run the released artifact and report what happened | `references/artifact-execution.md` | | `meta-review` | Adjudicate the reports into one decision with prioritised repairs | `references/meta-review.md` | ## Resolve the installed skill and components Resolve `SKILL_DIR` as the directory containing this `SKILL.md`. Every runtime resource is below that directory; never resolve through a package parent. ## Prove the isolation, do not assert it …

How to install
mdr add gxcaesar/open-research-skills/run-cold-review-panel@sha256:3edd463f28e12928The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260909.71c1b78, 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.
