Catalog of the AO (Agent Orchestrator) `ao` CLI: spawning workers, managing sessions and projects, creating reusable Cues, sending messages, controlling the shared browser, previewing pages, and daemon control. Use when using the ao CLI, creating Cues, spawning workers, or managing AO sessions in an AO workspace.
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
# AO CLI Catalog `ao` is a thin CLI over the local AO daemon. Every command is `ao <command> --help` for the authoritative flag list. | Command | What it does | When to use | Details | |---|---|---|---| | `spawn` | Spawn a project worker, orchestrator, or projectless standalone worker | Starting a new task or issue | [commands/spawn.md](commands/spawn.md) | | `session` | Manage agent sessions (list, kill, rename, restore, history, etc.) | Inspecting or controlling running/terminated sessions, or reading the full conversation after taking over from another agent | [commands/session.md](commands/session.md) | | `agent` | Inspect installed harnesses and launch readiness | Choosing or diagnosing an agent harness | `ao agent ls --refresh` | | `pr` | Merge a PR or resolve its review threads | Completing a reviewed change | `ao pr merge` / `ao pr resolve-comments` | | `project` | Register, inspect, configure, or remove projects | Setting up or managing repos AO knows about | [commands/project.md](commands/project.md) | …

How to install
mdr add untrivial-ai/agent-orchestrator/using-ao@sha256:069bdb47ecbf7a9bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261025.3cc605a, 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.
