Run a verified multi-agent goal with Bernstein. Use when a task is too large for a single agent session: Bernstein decomposes the goal into tasks, spawns CLI coding agents in parallel git worktrees, verifies their output, and merges results. Also use to check run status, costs, and to verify a finished run against its lineage and audit chain.

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

# Run a verified multi-agent goal

Bernstein is the open-source governance layer for AI agents, with a
deterministic multi-agent scheduler. This skill wraps the three-step operator loop: submit a goal,
monitor progress, and verify the finished run against its Merkle-chained
lineage journal and HMAC audit chain.

## Prerequisites

- `bernstein` on PATH (`pip install bernstein` or `uv tool install bernstein`).
- Run commands from the project root (the directory holding `.sdd/` after
  the first run).
- First-time setup: `bernstein init` scaffolds config and templates.

## Workflow

### 1. Submit

```bash
bernstein run -g "<goal>"
```

- The goal is a plain-English description of what to build or fix.
- Bernstein plans tasks, assigns roles (backend, frontend, qa, security,
  devops), and spawns agents in isolated git worktrees.
- Preview without spending: `bernstein run --dry-run -g "<goal>"`.

### 2. Monitor

```bash
bernstein status
bernstein cost
```

- `status` shows task summary and agent health.
- `cost` shows the spend so far against configured budgets.

### 3. Verify

```bash
bernstein lineage verify <run_id>
bernstein audit verify
```

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add sipyourdrink-ltd/bernstein/bernstein-run@sha256:7ae7501bd50c0b37

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260831.a123a77, 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.
