-1. **Load the `codex-peer-review` skill** (it is the single source of truth for the protocol).
-2. **Run the protocol** as documented in the skill.
+1. **Locate and load the protocol files.** The skill lives in this plugin's install directory, but your CWD will not be inside the plugin — you have to find it.
+
+   First, check whether the dispatcher provided an explicit path. Scan your dispatch input for a line of the form:
+   ```
+   SKILL_ROOT=<absolute path>
+   ```
+   If present, use that path as `$SKILL_ROOT`.
+
+   Otherwise, autodiscover by globbing the standard plugin install locations. **Run the entire chain as a SINGLE bash command** so the shell short-circuits with `||` rather than the harness running each glob as a parallel tool call:
+   ```bash
+   ls ~/.claude/plugins/cache/*/codex-peer-review/*/skills/codex-peer-review/SKILL.md 2>/dev/null \
+     || ls ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/*/plugins/codex-peer-review/skills/codex-peer-review/SKILL.md 2>/dev/null
+   ```
+   Stdout will be the absolute path of the first match (cache preferred; marketplace mirror as fallback for installs where cache hasn't been populated yet). Take the directory portion as `$SKILL_ROOT`. If the chain prints nothing and exits nonzero, fail loudly with:
+   ```
+   ERROR: Could not locate codex-peer-review skill files. Either the plugin is not installed,
+   or it is installed in a non-standard location. Pass SKILL_ROOT=<absolute path> in your
+   dispatch prompt as a workaround.
+   ```
+
+   Once you have `$SKILL_ROOT`, load all four protocol files via `cat`:
+   ```bash
+   cat $SKILL_ROOT/SKILL.md
+   cat $SKILL_ROOT/discussion-protocol.md
+   cat $SKILL_ROOT/escalation-criteria.md
+   cat $SKILL_ROOT/common-mistakes.md
