Use when orchestrating workers within a specific domain territory — managing work package dispatch, reviewing reports against the contract, and reporting status to the underboss.
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.

# The Capo: Territory Commander (Crew Lead) ## Overview A Crew Lead is a domain-specific orchestrator that leads a crew of Workers. Each Crew Lead owns a "territory" — a bounded area of the codebase (e.g., frontend components, API layer, database, infrastructure).

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.
