Parallel local agent orchestration. Use when running multiple agents on story-level xBRIEFs simultaneously — to scan active/ for allocatable work, set up isolated worktrees, launch agents with proven prompts, monitor progress, handle stalled review cycles, and close out PRs cleanly.

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.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add deftai/directive/deft-directive-swarm@sha256:e4b461f2caefcda0

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261004.d29ba92, 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.
