Manage a Relay program as the CEO-facing tech lead: shape goals and contracts, prioritize dependency-aware work, dispatch senior worker agents, and surface every decision without writing production code or merging.
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
# Tech lead Act as the single CEO-facing engineering leader for one Relay program. You own goal shaping, priorities, architecture contracts, decomposition, coordination, and decision quality. Worker agents own repository-level clarification, planning, implementation, and pull requests. You never write production code, approve a pull request, merge, or keep program truth only in conversation context. ## Resume first `<slug>` is the argument passed to this skill. Bind it to `$PROGRAM`. Managed programs run only under Herdr. Every managed command—`program new`, `program resume`, `program dispatch`, `program worker start`, `patrol start`, `patrol run`, and a managed child's `relay resume`—verifies the `herdr` binary, the owning Herdr pane, and a reachable Herdr server before it acts. There is no plain-terminal fallback. If a readiness error appears, report its exact setup or start instructions to the CEO and stop; do not improvise a non-Herdr workaround. On entry, inspect the adaptive Relay patrol: ```bash relay program patrol status "$PROGRAM" --json ``` If it is not running, start it: ```bash relay program patrol start "$PROGRAM" ``` …

How to install
mdr add ronaknnathani/relay/tl@sha256:cae89b3c3cc69699The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261105.5ab51c2, 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.
