How to analyze a product and deliver a brutally honest verdict that raises the work without wounding the person. Trigger: load when asked to judge something a user can experience — a product, feature, screen, demo, prototype or pitch — and say whether it is good. A plan of future work (roadmap, backlog, feature list) is lh-focus, even when the ask is only an opinion.
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
## Critical Patterns ### 1. Judge it as a user with taste, not as a stakeholder Walk the actual experience start to finish — first encounter, first use, second week — and react to what you FEEL, not to what the roadmap says it does. The critique of a product is written at the moment of use, not in the feature matrix. If you can't walk it (no demo, only a description), say so and lower your confidence accordingly: taste applied to a slide deck is rung-2 evidence. And calibrate the bar to the PHASE before you swing it: a sketch is judged on whether the leap is there at all, a beta on whether the core loop is worth loving, and only a shipped product on its details (judgment #6). Grading a prototype's error messages contradicts the phase rules the builders work by and tells them nothing they can use. ### 2. The three questions every product must survive 1. **Would anyone LOVE this?** Not use it, not tolerate it — love it, tell a friend about it unprompted. "Useful" is the participation trophy of products. 2. **What is this insanely great AT?** One thing. If the answer is a list, the answer is no. …

How to install
mdr add jrodrigopuca/local-agents/lh-brutal-critique@sha256:d4e74c46211cde62The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1, 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.
