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
# Robot Agent
## 1. What is it?
A **Robot Agent** is an AI team member. It works on its own, makes decisions, and runs tasks without waiting for user input.
**Key points:**
- Belongs to a Team, managed like human members
- Has clear job duties (e.g., "Sales Manager: track KPIs, make reports")
- Created and deleted via Team API
- Runs on schedule, or when triggered by humans or events
- Learns from each run, stores knowledge in private KB

## 2. Architecture
### 2.1 System Flow
> **Architecture Note:** All trigger types flow through Manager.
>
> - Clock: `Manager.Tick()` (internal ticker)
> - Human: `Manager.Intervene()` (API call)
> - Event: `Manager.HandleEvent()` (webhook/db trigger)
>
> The `trigger/` package provides utilities only (validation, clock matching, execution control).

How to install
mdr add yaoapp/yao/agent/robot/DESIGN.md@sha256:b81b11aa40d45925The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260127.3ae3f54, 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.
