tmux + Python agent lifecycle manager — start, stop, monitor, and assign tasks to AI agents running in tmux sessions. Use when managing multiple AI agents without a server, scheduling agent jobs via cron, monitoring agent heartbeats, or injecting skills into agent sessions. Zero dependencies beyond tmux + Python. Triggers on: "start agent", "stop agent", "monitor agent", "assign task to agent", "agent lifecycle", "agent scheduling", "tmux agent", "manage agents", "agent-manager".

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 Manager

Simple, installation-agnostic AI agent lifecycle management using **tmux + Python**.
Manage multiple AI agents without running a server, wiring HTTP APIs, or pulling in heavy dependencies.

## When to use this skill

- Starting/stopping/monitoring AI agents in tmux sessions
- Scheduling agent tasks via cron (daily standups, code reviews, nightly tests)
- Sending heartbeat check-ins to running agents
- Assigning tasks to agents from files or stdin
- Managing agents defined in `agents/EMP_*.md` YAML frontmatter files

## Instructions

### Step 1: Confirm that agent-manager is the right surface

- Use `agent-manager` when the user wants lightweight local agent orchestration with `tmux` and Python instead of a hosted control plane.
- Keep the answer centered on lifecycle management: start, stop, status, monitoring, task assignment, schedules, and heartbeats.
- If the request is only about one in-process subagent run with no persistent sessions, route to the native orchestration surface instead of stretching `agent-manager`.

### Step 2: Install or verify before changing live sessions

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add akillness/jeo-skills/agent-manager@sha256:bfa48c3c5ee0a877

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, 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.
