Make THIS session quiet: `/brigade:quiet` (or `/brigade:quiet on`) stops it taking team messages — Brigade holds them for the user's own `brigade inbox release` — and sets its roster line to say so; `--to <where>` names where teammates should write instead, `--refuse` turns messages away rather than holding them. `/brigade:quiet off` returns the session to normal; `/brigade:quiet status` shows the policy in force and how many messages wait. Only this session changes: no option, no settings…

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

# Make this session quiet, and return it to normal

A quiet session takes nothing from the team while the user's other sessions keep working with it. Three things
make it so, and all three are this session's alone: Brigade's inbound policy for this one session, this
session's roster line, and a standing instruction to you for the rest of the conversation. `$ARGUMENTS` is what
came after `/brigade:quiet`: typed by the user, or passed by you when they asked in words and you loaded this
skill.

1. Read `$ARGUMENTS`, ignoring surrounding whitespace. These are the only forms:

   | `$ARGUMENTS` | Meaning |
   | --- | --- |
   | empty, or `on` | this session stops taking team messages: they are held for the user |
   | `on --to <where>` | the same, and the roster line names where to write instead |
   | `on --refuse` | the same, but messages are turned away rather than held; `--to <where>` may follow |
   | `off` | back to normal |
   | `status` | the policy in force and how many messages wait |

   `<where>` is everything after `--to`: the user's words — a session name, a person, "my brf-127 session" —
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add appshapes/brigade/quiet@sha256:c2eef73a715958b6

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261022.af82f41, 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.
