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

# HELIOS AGENTS AND GOVERNANCE

## SYSTEM OVERVIEW

Helios is an autonomous software system developed using a vision-driven architecture.

**Autonomous agents do not invent work.** They resolve deltas between documentation and code.
- **Documentation defines gravity.**
- **Code moves to reduce the delta.**

When no delta exists, agents must idle. **Idling is success.**

### CURRENT STATE SUMMARY

Helios V1 goals are largely complete. Core rendering, player infrastructure, and local workflows are stable and feature-complete relative to V1 documentation. Recent stalls indicate gravitational equilibrium, not failure.

The purpose of this document is to define Helios V2 and reintroduce intentional gravitational pull.

---

## ROADMAP PHASES

### V1 COMPLETION
V1 focused on:
- Local rendering workflows
- Browser-native animation and capture
- Player and developer ergonomics
- Core engine stability

These goals are considered complete unless explicitly reopened under V2.

### V2 PLATFORM DIRECTION
Helios is transitioning from a local developer library into a distributed video platform with a component economy. V2 is defined by the following explicit deltas.

#### DISTRIBUTED RENDERING

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add bintzgavin/helios/AGENTS.md@sha256:3079f8eb1754e432

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261005.d2ad8e2, 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.
