Terminal escalation for do when unresolved blockers require outside intervention and no useful independent work remains. Reports the evidence, recovery attempts, completed work, and intervention needed.
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
This is a terminal handoff, called only after useful independent work is exhausted. An earlier blocker notice belongs in the executor's progress report; it does not end the run. If useful independent work remains, return to the calling executor to continue it before escalating. Receive the Manifest path from `/do`, along with the affected gates and the actual evidence behind each. Relay that evidence as supplied, without inventing verification the run did not perform. Surface it with the blocker evidence: the Outcome or criterion (OUTCOME, INV-G or AC ID) that can't be met, the credible recovery paths investigated and why they failed, and the intervention needed — unavailable knowledge or access, new authority, or a change to the Outcome or a hard requirement. Name what independent work completed and why the remainder depends on that intervention. Recommend a resolution; report it without starting a question-and-wait loop. Name the execution log's path when `/do` kept one, so the run that resumes reads what this one tried. …

How to install
mdr add doodledood/manifest-dev/escalate@sha256:4405140a66c6ce30The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261107.6960db4, 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.
