Session close checklist: tests, final commit, clean state and a summary for the next session.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Session end
## Steps (in order)
1. **Full tests** with the command declared in `AGENTS.md` → green.
2. **Final commit** if changes remain: conventional commit + role byline.
3. **Push** the working branch.
4. **Clean state**: `git status` without pending changes (or only inside the feature worktree).
5. **Summary**: what was done, what remains, relevant files.
## Checklist
- [ ] Tests green
- [ ] Incremental commits (not one giant commit)
- [ ] Role byline on agent commits
- [ ] No open QA or review findings
- [ ] Default branch clean; work lives in its branch/worktree
- [ ] Summary written for the next session
## Persistent memory (if configured)
Store the session summary with the project's memory tool. If there is no memory configured, the
summary goes to the chat and to the commit or PR description.
The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261021.0f705f1, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
