5-phase repeatable structure for autonomous agent sessions: context-load, tiered work-selection, coordination claim, execute, and persist-learning. Prevents duplicate work across concurrent sessions and ensures every run produces durable artifacts. Runtime-agnostic — Claude Code, gptme, Codex, or any persistent-workspace agent.
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
# Autonomous Session Workflow A 5-phase repeatable structure for autonomous agent sessions that prevents duplicate work, ensures durable learning capture, and keeps output bias toward meaningful shipped artifacts rather than motion. Battle-tested across thousands of autonomous sessions on the gptme architecture. The phases are runtime-agnostic — adapt the specific tools to your stack while keeping the phase structure intact. ## When to Use - At the start of every autonomous agent session (no live human directing the work) - When the agent must select its own work from a backlog or queue - When sessions run unattended and need to produce durable artifacts ## When Not to Use - Interactive sessions where a human provides the next prompt each turn — just respond - One-shot tool invocations with a fixed target (no selection needed) - Sub-agent calls spawned from a parent task (the parent already selected the work) ## The 5 Phases ### Phase 1: Context Load Load the agent's identity, session state, and current world model. ```bash # Read identity files — persona, goals, operating constraints # (adapt to your stack: CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, system prompt, etc.) …

How to install
mdr add agentskillexchange/skills/Autonomous Session Workflow@sha256:de1d5cdef23d66c1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260710.62afd0f, 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.
