Use when ending a session, handing a task back to the user, or approaching the context limit with work unfinished -- the next session or engineer must be able to resume the work instantly.
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
## Purpose When ending a session, handing a task back to the user, or preparing to swap to a new context window, you must leave a clean paper trail — exactly what the next session or human engineer needs to resume work instantly. ## When to Use - A task ends (complete or not) and someone else picks it up next - The context window is nearly full mid-task - Work is blocked and must pause on an external dependency ## Inputs - The session's actual state: what ran, what passed, what is mid-flight - The repo's working-tree status ## Workflow 1. **State the end condition.** Explain exactly why you are stopping (e.g., "Task complete", "Blocked on PR", "Context window too large"). 2. **Leave a breadcrumb.** If the task is incomplete, summarize the last successful step, the current failing step, and the *exact next command* to run. Record discovered constraints and dead ends so the next session doesn't retry them. 3. **Commit or stash.** Ensure the working directory is clean. Either commit the work, tell the user to commit, or stash it. Do not leave unverified messy state: ```bash git status --short # what is uncommitted? …

How to install
mdr add yeaight7/agent-powerups/handoff-discipline@sha256:d1b6889a6f6c259eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260606.e2e9022, 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.
