Spawn and stream Managoat conversations from inside a sprite — use whenever the user asks you to "spin up an agent on Managoat" (or on Fountain, its former name), "delegate to another agent", "fan out", or any task large enough to parallelise across coding agents. Managoat provisions an isolated Sprite per conversation, runs the configured runtime in it, and streams output back over SSE. Reads `MANAGOAT_BASE_URL`, `MANAGOAT_TOKEN`, and `MANAGOAT_CONVERSATION_ID` from the environment.

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

# Managoat — spawning conversations from inside a sprite

You are running inside a Sprite that Managoat provisioned. The Managoat API is
reachable at `$MANAGOAT_BASE_URL` (under **`/api`**) with bearer
`$MANAGOAT_TOKEN`. From here you can spawn *more* Managoat conversations —
each runs in its own fresh Sprite.

> **Use the API path**: `$MANAGOAT_BASE_URL/api/conversations`. The retired
> browser path `$MANAGOAT_BASE_URL/conversations` returns 404.

## The two patterns you'll use

### A. Fan out N agents and collect their answers

```bash
# 1. Pick the agent (by name).
AGENT_ID=$(curl -s "$MANAGOAT_BASE_URL/api/agents" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $MANAGOAT_TOKEN" \
  | jq -r '.data[] | select(.name == "echo-bot") | .id')

# 2. Spawn N conversations IN PARALLEL with xargs. Output is conv ids on stdout.
prompts=("First task" "Second task" "Third task")
ids=$(printf '%s\n' "${prompts[@]}" | xargs -n1 -P8 -I{} sh -c '
  curl -s -X POST "$1/api/conversations" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $2" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -H "X-Managoat-Parent-Conversation-Id: $MANAGOAT_CONVERSATION_ID" \
    -d "$(jq -n --arg a "$3" --arg p "$4" "{agent_id:\$a, prompt:\$p}")" \

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add binarybourbon/fountain/managoat@sha256:a35ff3a45c2b7b1c

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261019.46caa95, 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.
