Provision or renew a non-root Turnkey agent's expiring API keys through a separate provisioner. Use when setting up session credentials or recovering an expired session; not for wallet provisioning.

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

# Provisioning a session agent

Result: a tagged non-root agent on expiring API keys, a tagged provisioner that
may register keys on that agent and nothing else, the minting row's policies,
and a renewal loop the agent host runs by itself. Pick the branch first: **first
provisioning** runs steps 1 to 5; **renewal** runs step 5 only; **recovery** runs
one branch of step 6. A renewal never repeats bootstrap, replaces a policy, or
recreates the agent. Inputs: the root profile (`admin`), `AGENT_TAG`,
`PROVISIONER_TAG`, and `HUMAN_APPROVER_TAG` set to the tag ids from
bootstrapping, the minting row chosen from
[approval-models.md](../references/approval-models.md), the agent host, and the provisioner host.

## Reference

- [sessions](../../docs/sessions.md): `session request`, `provision`, `activate`, and `status` records and errors.
- [resources](../../docs/resources.md): `user create` flags, `api-key` records, `policy create` flags.
- [authentication](../../docs/authentication.md): `profile create`, `login`, and `whoami` records and the credential file location.
- [activities](../../docs/activities.md): `activity approve` and `activity get` on a pending mint.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add tkhq/tk/provisioning-session-agent@sha256:074f1b6b75304fc0

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.efc1ce8, 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.
