Quota-triggered failover from Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Hermes or OpenClaw. When armed, it reads the sender quota and tries other-vendor models in place, then receiving agents in the configured order. Use when a long run must finish even if one vendor's quota runs out. Not a monitor for anything else.
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
# rotate-agent Needs: `tmux`, `jq`, GNU `timeout`, and `sno` with Reach, heartbeat and subscription-quota-check, plus the `handoff` skill. The provider-reading script also uses `awk` and OpenClaw's session exporter. Install programs through `sno setup`. A seat is a registered terminal address (see `join-talk`). The owner owns the work; the watchman reads ticks and acts on them, preferably from a seat other than the busy sender. Rotation keeps one authorized long run working when its model's quota is low. Agent ids are `claude-code`, `codex`, `cursor`, `hermes`, `openclaw`. Selection belongs to `sno subscription-quota-check --pick handoff`: other-vendor models inside the sender first, then other agents in `handoff_order`. Never replace the returned order with your own. A Cursor quota reading belongs to one conversation, so `--from cursor` needs `--sender <A-seat>` on the preflight and `--seat <A-seat>` on the watch; without it the reading is unreadable and the watch holds. A Cursor receiver is always a new Cursor CLI seat on a tmux window (`sno reach spawn cursor-agent --window`). The trigger is the threshold read only; a quota error message from Cursor does not start a rotation. …

How to install
mdr add sno-ai/sno-station-skills/rotate-agent@sha256:a0d9723f74995fcbThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261013.fdbd8e1, 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.
