Brief the owner on what needs them across their Merrymen agents — a morning brief of everything open, or a quiet check-in that speaks up only when something new needs them. Use for "anything I need to do for my Merryman?", a morning or daily brief, or when checking on the owner's agents on a schedule or on your own (Claude Duet, a scheduled task, a loop).

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

Brief the owner with the Merrymen tool that ends in `get_attention`. "$ARGUMENTS" may say `morning` or `check`, and may name an agent id.

1. Call `get_attention`, with the agent from "$ARGUMENTS" if one is named. On a check-in, pass `seen_keys`: the item keys you already told the owner about, from earlier briefs or check-ins you remember.
2. Decide whether to speak.
   - **Morning brief** (`morning`, the owner asked, or your first look of their day): every open item, most severe first, including ones reported before. If there are none, say in one line that nothing needs them.
   - **Check-in** (`check`, or you are checking on your own): speak if an `act_now` or `today` item is new (`new_counts` says how many), or if `resolved_keys` is not empty: say in a few words that each of those is sorted. Items marked fyi wait for the morning brief. If there is no new `act_now` or `today` item and nothing resolved, say nothing at all.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add millw14/merrymen/brief@sha256:446b929896f23270

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261021.b8944e4, 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.
