Configure and run background agents with reusable profiles for agent engines, model providers and execution backends. Use when delegating background work, reusing agents across sessions, or adding an engine or backend. Trigger.dev and Cloudflare Workflows are available backends; the approach is extensible. Includes optional source-backed evidence review.
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
# Background Agents Run the requested work through a selected profile, verify the remote outcome, and return usable results with run references. Keep four choices separate: **execution backend** (Trigger.dev by default), **agent engine** (for example Pi), **model provider**, and **model**. Changing one does not automatically change the others. Profiles select deployed tasks; they do not install a new engine or grant it tools. ## Select configuration Use the configuration explicitly supplied by the user, otherwise `BACKGROUND_AGENT_PROFILES`, otherwise `agents.profiles.json` in the working project. Do not search unrelated projects or reuse remembered account/project identifiers. Read [references/profiles.md](references/profiles.md) when creating, extending or resolving profiles. Copy [assets/profiles.example.json](assets/profiles.example.json) as a starting point; it contains environment references, not working deployment identifiers. The standard-library helper lists and resolves profiles without executing jobs: ```sh python3 scripts/profiles.py --config agents.profiles.json list python3 scripts/profiles.py --config agents.profiles.json validate …

How to install
mdr add glebis/claude-skills/background-agents@sha256:81087b75895aa06eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.046a4ce, 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.
