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

# Yao gRPC Server

General-purpose gRPC gateway for the Yao process. Shares OAuth + ACL scope system with openapi — one token, two protocols.

## Services

| Layer | Method | Purpose | Scope |
|-------|--------|---------|-------|
| **Base** | `Run` | Execute Yao process, return result | `grpc:run` |
| | `Stream` | Execute Yao process, stream output | `grpc:stream` |
| | `Shell` | Execute system command, wait for result | `grpc:shell` |
| | `ShellStream` | Execute system command, stream stdout/stderr | `grpc:shell` |
| **API** | `API` | Proxy to openapi, any endpoint | openapi's own scopes |
| **MCP** | `MCPListTools` | List MCP tools for a session | `grpc:mcp` |
| | `MCPCallTool` | Call MCP tool → process.Exec() | `grpc:mcp` |
| | `MCPListResources` | List MCP resources | `grpc:mcp` |
| | `MCPReadResource` | Read MCP resource | `grpc:mcp` |
| **LLM** | `ChatCompletions` | Send messages to LLM, get response | `grpc:llm` |
| | `ChatCompletionsStream` | Stream LLM response (SSE → gRPC stream) | `grpc:llm` |
| **Agent** | `AgentStream` | Call agent, stream response | `grpc:agent` |

## Clients

- Container MCP tools (via Tai gRPC relay)
- `yao run` CLI (after `yao login`)

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add yaoapp/yao/grpc/DESIGN.md@sha256:4f8815a01d21b5dd

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260304.6e68efa, 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.
