Use when closing an agentic session deliberately rather than by attrition — carries the four-step ritual (survey, park, closure summary and reflection, close), the anchor grammar behind the next-action question, the evidence for why a specific written plan releases an unfinished thread, and the anti-patterns that would turn a closing ritual into a gate on the person.
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
# The Coda An agentic session has no terminal cue. There is no compile, no deploy, no colleague standing up to leave — the medium supplies nothing that says *this is finished*. So sessions end by attrition: the human stops when something external interrupts, and the work is left in whatever state the interruption found it. Two costs follow. The unfinished threads keep their pull, because nothing wrote down where they were. And the next session opens cold, re-deriving from a diff what the previous session already knew. > **The Coda** — the good ending. A ritual that closes a session deliberately, > records what landed, and parks every live thread with a concrete resume step. **What it attacks:** *drift* — the "while we're here" extension nobody deliberately chose — and the cold-start cost of an unrecorded stop. Not compulsive continuation itself. The Coda's only defence against continuing is a refusal that steps aside the moment the human plainly asks it to, and a plain request to continue is the shape that failure mode takes. Claiming otherwise would be an overclaim in the sentence that names the sentinel. ## The ritual Four steps, same order every time. | # | Step | …

How to install
mdr add habitat-thinking/ai-literacy-superpowers/coda@sha256:b1a51197416458d5The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260812.cecd058, 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.
