trailhead work cluster: the verbs that resolve tickets on the map and manage a ticket's lifecycle. Work the next frontier ticket or the one you name (work), work one ticket whole without splitting, a new whiteboard ticket or an existing one (quick), checkpoint the ticket in play (pause), resume it from its checkpoint (resume), split an oversized ticket into children (split), and run a chosen scope (one map, the whiteboard, or everything) autonomously until a stop condition or exhaustion (auto).

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

`trailhead-work` is the **work cluster** of the trailhead skill: the verbs that resolve tickets and manage a ticket's lifecycle. `work` takes the next frontier ticket (or the one you name) and resolves it with its type's engine; `quick` works one ticket whole without splitting (a new whiteboard ticket from text, or an existing ticket, which stays where it is); `pause` checkpoints the ticket in play; `resume` picks it back up; `split` breaks an oversized ticket into children; `auto` runs a chosen run scope autonomously, ticket by ticket, suspending the one-ticket-per-session rule until a stop condition or exhaustion. Everything lives on the GitHub Issues; the repo holds code only.

## Move into the handed checkout (`--in=`)

The panel starts `work` and `resume` from wherever the session stands and cannot move it, so it appends the pinned checkout to the args as a last word `--in=<token>` (base64url of the checkout root, plus the repo identity when the panel knows it). When the args of `work` or `resume` end with such a word, this section runs first, before the load, the Preflight and anything else; with no such word it does not apply. `quick` never gets one.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add torvaldz/trailhead/trailhead-work@sha256:7c85c7b77aa4384d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261103.c0ccc23, 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.
