Launch and drive coding agents (codex, claude, agy) through the Herdr CLI; requires a herdr pane (HERDR_ENV=1). Use before starting or prompting a herdr subagent, and when a herdr command fails or an agent seems stuck or silently lost a prompt.
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
# Herdr FAQ
Launch and drive coding agents through [Herdr](https://herdr.dev) (>= 0.9.2) without
losing prompts.
## Syntax authority
`herdr --skill` (~14k chars) is the vendor reference: command model, IDs, lifecycle
states, prompt and wait mechanics, read sources, safety rules. Read it once per session
before your first herdr command - this file assumes it and repeats none of it. For
flags, run the command group bare (`herdr agent`, `herdr pane`) or `--help`; never bare
`herdr` (it launches the TUI). If a syntax question is not answered here, it is
answered there - go get it, never guess a flag.
## When this lane
```bash
test "${HERDR_ENV:-}" = 1 # never drive herdr from outside a pane
```
Unset means this shell is not herdr-managed: no `$HERDR_PANE_ID`, no `--current`, and
an untargeted command lands on whatever pane the USER has focused. Use acpx instead
(acpx-faq). In-session fan-out stays on the harness's own subagent tool.
## Invariants
1. **Exit 0 is submission, never completion** - and `send-keys` can return
`{"type":"ok"}` for keystrokes that never reach the pane. Confirm by effect: state
moved, or the text is visible in the pane.
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add tenequm/skills/herdr-faq@sha256:13e820145d6c0da8The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.5.0, 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.
