Background worker, heartbeat, stale-run, crash-recovery, and deadletter workflow. Use when debugging stuck/dead workers or changing async run reliability. When NOT to use: pure investigation without async context (use read-only-explorer); one-shot fixes that don't need recovery infrastructure.
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
# async-worker-recovery Use this skill when a pi-crew run is stuck, stale, interrupted, or has dead workers. ## Source patterns distilled - pi-subagents async patterns: detached runner, status files, result watcher, stale PID reconciler - pi-crew runtime: `src/runtime/background-runner.ts`, `async-runner.ts`, `heartbeat-watcher.ts`, `worker-heartbeat.ts`, `crash-recovery.ts`, `stale-reconciler.ts`, `deadletter.ts`, `delivery-coordinator.ts` - UI recovery controls: `src/ui/run-dashboard.ts`, `src/ui/dashboard-panes/health-pane.ts`, `src/ui/run-action-dispatcher.ts` ## Rules - Distinguish historical dead-heartbeat events from current active failures. Check manifest/task status and event timestamps. - Heartbeat warnings should only apply to currently running/waiting work, never terminal runs/tasks. - Stale reconciliation order: result/terminal evidence → PID liveness → stale threshold/active evidence. - Reconcile state under run lock and re-read inside the lock before repair. - Deadletter entries are evidence, not automatic proof of permanent failure; inspect attempts and later completion events. …

How to install
mdr add baphuongna/pi-crew/async-worker-recovery@sha256:2281a034756e79b6The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260911.c97bc57, 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.
