critiqueComprehensive multi-perspective review using specialized judges with debate and consensus building
Critique is an agent skill from NeoLabHQ/context-engineering-kit. Comprehensive multi-perspective review using specialized judges with debate and consensus building
Its SKILL.md is about 3.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
The repository describes itself as: Hand-crafted Claude Code Skills focused on improving agent results quality. Compatible with OpenCode, Cursor, Antigravity, Gemini CLI, and others. Includes CodeRabbit open-source… The licence is GPL-3.0.
4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 23e2428. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown and bash).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Critique loads about 3.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 27 tokens; SKILL.md has 503 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.

.claude/skills/critique/SKILL.md (or your agent's skills folder).<task>
You are a critique coordinator conducting a comprehensive multi-perspective review of completed work using the Multi-Agent Debate + LLM-as-a-Judge pattern. Your role is to orchestrate multiple specialized judges who will independently review the work, debate their findings, and reach consensus on quality, correctness, and improvement opportunities.
</task>
<context>
This command implements a sophisticated review pattern combining:
- **Multi-Agent Debate**: Multiple specialized judges provide independent perspectives
- **LLM-as-a-Judge**: Structured evaluation framework for consistent assessment
- **Chain-of-Verification (CoVe)**: Each judge validates their own critique before submission
- **Consensus Building**: Judges debate findings to reach agreement on recommendations
The review is report-only - findings are presented for user consideration without automatic fixes.
</context>
Before starting the review, understand what was done:
Identify the scope of work to review:
Capture relevant context:
Summarize scope for confirmation:
📋 Review Scope:
- Original request: [summary]
- Files changed: [list]
- Approach taken: [brief description]
Proceeding with multi-agent review...Use the Task tool to spawn three specialized judge agents in parallel. Each judge operates independently without seeing others' reviews.
Prompt for Agent:
You are a Requirements Validator conducting a thorough review of completed work.
## Your Task
Review the following work and assess alignment with original requirements:
[CONTEXT]
Original Requirements: {requirements}
Work Completed: {summary of changes}
Files Modified: {file list}
[/CONTEXT]
## Your Process (Chain-of-Verification)
1. **Initial Analysis**:
- List all requirements from the original request
- Check each requirement against the implementation
- Identify gaps, over-delivery, or misalignments
2. **Self-Verification**:
- Generate 3-5 verification questions about your analysis
- Example: "Did I check for edge cases mentioned in requirements?"
- Answer each question honestly
- Refine your analysis based on answers
3. **Final Critique**:
Provide structured output:
### Requirements Alignment Score: X/10
### Requirements Coverage:
✅ [Met requirement 1]
✅ [Met requirement 2]
⚠️ [Partially met requirement 3] - [explanation]
❌ [Missed requirement 4] - [explanation]
### Gaps Identified:
- [gap 1 with severity: Critical/High/Medium/Low]
- [gap 2 with severity]
### Over-Delivery/Scope Creep:
- [item 1] - [is this good or problematic?]
### Verification Questions & Answers:
Q1: [question]
A1: [answer that influenced your critique]
...
Be specific, objective, and cite examples from the code.Prompt for Agent:

## Your Task
Review the implementation approach and assess if it's optimal:
[CONTEXT]

[/CONTEXT]
## Your Process (Chain-of-Verification)
1. **Initial Evaluation**:
- Analyze the chosen approach
- Consider alternative approaches
- Evaluate trade-offs and design decisions
- Check for architectural patterns and best practices
2. **Self-Verification**:
- Generate 3-5 verification questions about your evaluation
- Example: "Am I being biased toward a particular pattern?"
- Example: "Did I consider the project's existing architecture?"
- Answer each question honestly
- Adjust your evaluation based on answers
3. **Final Critique**:
Provide structured output:
### Solution Optimality Score: X/10
### Approach Assessment:
**Chosen Approach**: [brief description]

Be objective and consider the context of the project (size, team, constraints).Prompt for Agent:
You are a Code Quality Reviewer assessing implementation quality and suggesting refactorings.
## Your Task
Review the code quality and identify refactoring opportunities:
[CONTEXT]
Files Changed: {file list}
Implementation Details: {code snippets or file contents as needed}
Project Conventions: {any known conventions from codebase}
[/CONTEXT]
## Your Process (Chain-of-Verification)
1. **Initial Review**:
- Assess code readability and clarity
- Check for code smells and complexity
- Evaluate naming, structure, and organization
- Look for duplication and coupling issues
- Verify error handling and edge cases
2. **Self-Verification**:
- Generate 3-5 verification questions about your review
- Example: "Am I applying personal preferences vs. objective quality criteria?"
- Example: "Did I consider the existing codebase style?"
- Answer each question honestly
- Refine your review based on answers

Run `npx skills add NeoLabHQ/context-engineering-kit --skill critique -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/critique in NeoLabHQ/context-engineering-kit) into .claude/skills/critique in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add NeoLabHQ/context-engineering-kit --skill critique -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/critique in NeoLabHQ/context-engineering-kit) into .agents/skills/critique in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add NeoLabHQ/context-engineering-kit --skill critique -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/critique, .gemini/skills/critique, .github/skills/critique and .opencode/skills/critique in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Critique is instructions for the agent only.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Critique is published under the GPL-3.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 3.2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 13k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Critique: Design Critique (paperclipai/paperclip, 99k stars), Critique Theater (nexu-io/open-design, 100k stars), Agent Consensus Coordinator (ruvnet/ruflo, 74k stars) and Critique (plugin87/ux-ui-agent-skills, 1.6k stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
