Install the hook that renames the Herdr agent, pane and tab to match a Claude Code or Codex session renamed with /rename.
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 rename hook One installed script, `~/.claude/hooks/herdr-rename-agent.sh`, serves both Claude Code and Codex. Whatever notices the rename, the mirroring onto the calling pane is the same three commands: `herdr agent rename` (the title slugified to Herdr's agent-name rules), then `herdr pane rename` and — only when the pane is the first pane of its tab — `herdr tab rename` (the title as typed, whitespace collapsed; the tab id and the pane order are read live from `herdr pane layout`). The bundled `scripts/herdr-rename-agent.sh` is the source of truth — its header carries the mechanism, the slug and collision rules; edit there and re-run `install.sh`. **Claude Code** has no hook event for `/rename`, but `/rename` writes the session's `custom-title.json` sidecar. A `SessionStart` hook registers that file as a `FileChanged` watch path (`hookSpecificOutput.watchPaths`); the `FileChanged` hook does the renaming. …

How to install
mdr add soulmachine/skills/herdr-rename-hook@sha256:027f34b7dc9030cbThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260916.7177aba, 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.
