Wait for quiet native Codex children and reconcile their state before declaring a stall, interrupting, replacing, or handing off without a result.
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
# Wait for subagents patiently Use this for native children. External jobs use [long-poll-wait](../long-poll-wait/SKILL.md); app tasks use their own event-wait tool. Load [native-subagents-first](../native-subagents-first/SKILL.md) for native lifecycle and run accounting unless already active. Never recursively reload it. ## Wait on evidence A `wait_agent` timeout means no update arrived in that window. It does not prove failure, a hang, or lack of progress. A `running` or `completed` status describes lifecycle; the actual answer and verified artifacts establish the result. Continue independent parent work while the child runs. When its result blocks the next action, use `wait_agent` with the longest supported window compatible with host responsiveness and the next decision point. Do not replace mailbox waiting with sleeps or repeated lifecycle snapshots. Consume the actual mailbox update; a wake may concern another child or user input. …

How to install
mdr add kbediako/evergreen-codex-skills/wait-for-subagents-patiently@sha256:cc904fb1edfce47dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260912.7ff2e86, 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.
