What it does

Judgment Day is an agent skill from Gentleman-Programming/gentle-ai. Trigger: judgment day, dual review, adversarial review, juzgar. Run explicit blind dual review with at most two scoped fix/re-judgment rounds.

Its SKILL.md is about 930 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/prompts-and-formats.md`).

The repository describes itself as: Gentle-AI configures the AI coding agents you already use: Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode, Codex, Pi, and more. Choose persistent memory, Organic-Driven Development, curated… The licence is Apache-2.0.

Example prompts

  • “/judgment-day”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Build the complete immutable target and freeze the scope both judges will inspect.
  2. Launch both read-only judges in parallel (jd-judge-a, jd-judge-b) against the same immutable target.
  3. Merge findings into the frozen ledger and persist it through the selected artifact store.
  4. Ask before round-one correction; run the fix actor (jd-fix-agent) only for confirmed severe IDs.
  5. Run both judges again (jd-judge-a, jd-judge-b) only over the frozen ledger plus immutable fix delta.
  6. Repeat once at most, then run independent final verification and return the terminal verdict.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 81d2225. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Judgment Day loads about 927 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 39 tokens; SKILL.md has 455 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~39
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~927
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.7k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Activation Contract

Load only when the user explicitly requests Judgment Day or equivalent dual/adversarial review for a concrete target. Judgment Day is a standalone developer tool: judges run whenever asked, on any runtime, and need no review transaction, runtime identity, or delivery-receipt machinery to start. It replaces ordinary 4R as the adversarial method for that target; never run both.

Hard Rules

  • Resolve matching project skills before starting and pass the same paths to both judges (jd-judge-a, jd-judge-b) and the fix actor (jd-fix-agent).
  • Build one complete immutable target, then launch two blind read-only judges in parallel with identical scope and criteria.
  • Each judge returns one neutral findings result and terminates. Wait for both; never accept a partial judgment.
  • Never launch review-refuter; two-judge agreement is the corroboration mechanism.
  • Only the parent orchestrator merges/persists findings, launches the fix actor (jd-fix-agent), and launches scoped re-judgment.
  • Fix only severe findings confirmed by both judges. WARNING/SUGGESTION rows remain info.
  • Permit at most two fix rounds and two scoped re-judgments. Re-judgment sees only the frozen ledger plus fix delta and may record fix-caused defects.
  • The only terminal verdicts are APPROVED | ESCALATED; never reset or extend an exhausted round budget.
  • A judgment issues no receipt and carries no delivery authority: it satisfies no commit, push, PR, or release gate. When the caller explicitly wants ordinary negotiated review for the same target, run it as its own step; neither outcome authorizes delivery, which remains under ordinary repository policy.

Execution Steps

  1. Build the complete immutable target and freeze the scope both judges will inspect.
  2. Launch both read-only judges in parallel (jd-judge-a, jd-judge-b) against the same immutable target.
  3. Merge findings into the frozen ledger and persist it through the selected artifact store.
  4. Ask before round-one correction; run the fix actor (jd-fix-agent) only for confirmed severe IDs.
  5. Run both judges again (jd-judge-a, jd-judge-b) only over the frozen ledger plus immutable fix delta.
  6. Repeat once at most, then run independent final verification and return the terminal verdict.

Output Contract

Return target identity, round, confirmed/suspect/contradiction/INFO counts, correction work units, scoped re-judgment result, artifact references, skill resolution, and exactly one final JUDGMENT: APPROVED ✅ or JUDGMENT: ESCALATED ⚠️.
