pan-agent-activity skillA
pan-agent-activity is agent-read markdown (skill) from eltmon/overdeck: Verify Overdeck agents are ACTUALLY progressing by READING each agent's real output and assessing what it is doing — not just whether a session is alive or a pane changed.
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# pan-agent-activity — READ what each agent is doing and assess progress
A live tmux session ≠ a working agent, and **a changed pane ≠ real progress** (an agent can
churn on duplicate notifications, re-ask the same question, or loop). The only reliable check
is to **READ each agent's actual recent output and judge: is it advancing toward its task/goal,
done, or stalled/errored — and if stalled, WHY (root cause)?** A hash-diff is a coarse liveness
hint at best; it is NOT the method.
**Doctrine (roles/flywheel.md Mission #4):** a stalled/errored agent is a symptom. Do NOT
`pan tell` a nudge to unstick one instance — find the **root cause / substrate bug** and land
the fix so it self-heals for every agent.
## Step 1 — READ every agent's real output (the actual method)
```bash
for s in $(tmux -L overdeck list-sessions -F '#{session_name}' 2>/dev/null \
| grep -E '^(agent-pan|strike-pan)-[0-9]+(-review|-test|-slot-[0-9])?$' | sort); do
echo "════════ $s ════════"
tmux -L overdeck capture-pane -t "$s" -p -S -22 2>/dev/null \
| grep -vE '^\s*$|^[─│╭╰╮╯▐▛▜▙▟▘▝]|ctx [0-9]|auto mode|shift\+tab|^\s*[0-9]+% \(|tokens\)\s*$|default ·|/[0-9.]+M |Claude Code v|API Usage' \
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add eltmon/overdeck/pan-agent-activity@git:20260714.6f56e37mdr add eltmon/overdeck/pan-agent-activity@sha256:0c9408e9118991bdPin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
