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
# AGENTS.md — working in this repo Written for AI coding agents, and equally readable by a human contributor. Short on purpose. ## What this repo is LEASH-8: an 8-domain control model for AI agents that hold delegated authority. **Patterns, not a product, and not our live control surfaces.** There is no runnable code here — the deliverables are a scored worksheet, the control model, and two architecture notes. If you are an agent reading this repo to apply it to your own operator's setup, start at [`FOR-ROBOTS.md`](FOR-ROBOTS.md), then [`SCORECARD.md`](SCORECARD.md). ## Layout - `SCORECARD.md` — 24 statements, scored 0/1/2, five minutes, produces a band. - `docs/leash-8.md` — the eight domains, the minimal implementation of each, and **what evidence to keep**. The evidence column is the part that makes it auditable. - `docs/plan-vs-authorize.md` — the core pattern: the model plans, a policy gate decides, an executor acts. Most of the repo is downstream of this separation. - `templates/approval-design-checklist.md` — designing human approvals for irreversible actions. - `docs/a2a-agent-card.md` + `agent-card.json` — reference A2A Agent Card. ## How to verify a change …

How to install
mdr add tonydzi/agent-leash/AGENTS.md@sha256:b29deba0fe4b8c57The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260830.4834d9f, 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.
