Delegate user-requested work to an existing Paperclip agent, with a durable task reference and clear execution expectations.
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
Identify the connected person and company with `paperclip_connection`. List agents and, if relevant, projects. Select the agent suited to the requested outcome. Resolve ambiguity about team, scope or assignee with the user before creating work. Report paused or unavailable agents; do not promise they will run.
Prepare a task with the objective, relevant user-provided context, constraints and expected deliverable. Explain that delegation can start autonomous agent work using the team's separately configured execution capacity and budget. The user's request to delegate is sufficient authorization when its scope is clear.
Create one UUID requestId for the intended task, then call `paperclip_create_task`. Reuse that UUID and identical arguments if the same call must be retried. After an unknown outcome or disconnected call, inspect tasks before doing anything else. Never switch to a new requestId to force the action through.

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261006.e34abee, 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.
