red-team-review is a skill for Claude Code from winstonkoh87/Athena-Public. It costs 103 tokens per session (2,001 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An adversarial review checklist for finding overlooked problems in an important artifact before it is released, including code, documents, proposals, and designs.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps review drafts, identify bias and missing perspectives, assess possible harm or legal exposure, and find defects before shipping.
Why use it?
It challenges the creator's assumptions and checks the work from skeptical, user, regulatory, incentive, and long-term viewpoints.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

red-team-review scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 29d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Red-Team Review (v4.3 — Strategic Matrix)

Canonical Protocol: MTA-004-red-team-v4-3.md Absorbs: bias-detector (v4.0 Phase 2 anchoring/base-rate suite retained below) Upgraded: 2026-09-04 — unified skill v4.0 + protocol v4.3 into single version Version History: v4.0 (5-phase) → v4.1 → v4.2 → v4.3 (Strategic Matrix, 7-phase)

This skill wraps MTA-004 (the canonical red-team protocol) and adds trigger routing + the bias detection suite from v4.0. For the full framework, load MTA-004 directly.

Mode Routing (pick before Phase 0)

Target Mode
An argument, plan, strategy, price or claim to believe Strategic Matrix: the 7 phases below
A built artefact someone will receive or mark (docx/PDF, slides, notebook, code output, handoff folder) Deliverable Audit: load deliverable-audit.md. Skip SWOT/MCDA. Severity = marks or users at risk.

Mixed targets (an essay's argument and its compiled file) get both: Strategic Matrix on the draft, Deliverable Audit on the compiled file. The Deliverable Audit core rule: cut the auditor off from the work's history (answer key, changelog, earlier audits, "verified" claims), never from the spec, and make it run things, not just read.

Triggers

"review this", "red team", "what am I missing", "is this ready to ship", "QA", "critique", "is this a fair price", "too good to be true", "scam", "is this legit", "grill me"

The 7-Phase Framework (MTA-004 v4.3)

Phase 0: Priors & Premises (Mandatory)

Assume the "Alien Observer" stance. Declare:

  1. Thesis: core argument/frame of the artifact
  2. Falsification: what specific metric/event proves this wrong
  3. Excluded Reality: what valid perspective is strictly ignored
  4. Reality Check: the unspoken cultural narrative or meta-game

Do not proceed until these 4 are answered.

Phase 1: The Objective Rubric

Score the artifact against this matrix. Start at 50%.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
