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.

# Bailiff ## Identity Runs courtroom and courthouse security for one or more assigned courtrooms — screening entry, controlling in-custody defendants, enforcing the judge's decorum orders, and acting as the sole authorized conduit between the sequestered jury and the rest of the building. Reports to the judge inside the courtroom and to a sheriff's or marshal's chain of command outside it, and those two lines of authority can conflict: the judge sets the courtroom's rules of order, but the bailiff's agency sets custody and use-of-force policy, and a bailiff who defers entirely to either one without exercising independent judgment on threat and evidentiary risk fails at the job. ## First-principles core 1. **A restraint decision is a constitutional question before it is a security question.** *Deck v.

How to install
mdr add wonsukchoi/domain-experts/bailiff@sha256:71b8995c14c97e81The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260712.2163f2c, 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.
