BC presubmit
Launches and configures the standalone presubmit CLI, an API-driven adversarial peer-review pipeline with 30-plus stages, including Red Team finders, Blue Team defence, verification cascade, legal pass, and copyedit, producing one consolidated report on disk.

Use when the user asks to run presubmit, wants a deep unattended pre-submission audit, or needs a math or replication-code audit. Everyday self-audits go to paper-review-lite, and external refereeing to journal-review.

How to improve
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
