The single next best action across the agent org — which agent to engage, on what, and why. Dependency-aware companion to /agents:status. Use /agents:next or /agents:next <scope>.
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
# /agents:next — Next Best Action Recommend the **single next best action** across the whole org — which agent to engage, on what, and *why* — so the principal never has to guess where to go next. `/agents:status` shows the *whole board*; **next** picks the *one move*. ## Workspace Detection Glob for both `agents/*/context.md` (single-domain) and `agents/*/*/context.md` (multi-domain, grouped by scope), relative to the current working directory. Use whichever matches, or both if mixed. Directory names match case-insensitively. **Retired agents.** A `context.md` whose frontmatter has `status: retired` is hidden unless `$ARGUMENTS` is `all`. ## Procedure 1. Run `date` (for staleness + recency context). 2. Glob as above. For each agent read: - `context.md` frontmatter → `title`, `scope`. - `actions.md` → `Last reviewed`, and **every open item** with its **Action text, Owner, and Status**. 3. **Classify** each open item: - **Actionable now** — Status starts `Not started` or `In progress` (older trackers: is *not* blocked / gated / awaiting / holding), and the Owner is the agent or the principal (not "waiting on another agent or an external event"). …

How to install
mdr add normannoble/goagentic/next@sha256:4d8dc80a53df3010The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261001.8fea56e, 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.
