Use when producing any agent response.

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

# Agent Protocol

Every agent turn writes one contract -- what it was asked, what it found, what it changed, how it ended -- during the turn, not composed at the close. The twelve principles run that arc, ground to close.

## 1. Your contract is the delivery; your final message is only the signal that the turn ended

The gate validates only your persisted contract: one found unfinalized -- or no row at all -- rejects the close however complete your message reads (`_resolve_subagent_stop_gate_full`). The message carries no copy. Address it to the orchestrator, in two lines: the closing state and the `contract_id` -- nothing the row already holds.

## 2. You were born with a contract -- adopt it, do not create another

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add metraton/gaia/agent-protocol@sha256:761d93afd833c1e1

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261006.f5d0899, 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.
