Drive the real agent-tty CLI built from this checkout, the way a user or agent does, and capture proof - JSON envelopes, rendered snapshots, PNG screenshots, recordings, and the session files on disk - in an isolated Home that never touches ~/.agent-tty. Use it to verify a change to any agent-tty command (create, run, wait, batch, snapshot, screenshot, record, gc, dashboard) end to end before you call it done, or to reproduce a reported CLI or TUI bug.

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

# Verify agent-tty by driving the CLI

agent-tty is a CLI. Users and agents touch three surfaces: the `agent-tty` commands with `--json` envelopes (the main one), the `agent-tty dashboard` TUI, and the artifacts that commands write (PNG, `.cast`, `.webm`, snapshot JSON). The library export in `src/index.ts` is not covered here.

There is no server to keep alive. Each verification run builds `dist/` once and then drives the built CLI against its own Home. Two runs of the same build can work side by side, because each one has its own Home, its own Home Registry and its own socket folder. All runs of a checkout share its `dist/`, and `start-run.sh` rebuilds it (and can delete it first), so do not start a run while another run of this checkout is still driving sessions on an older build.

The feature map in [`features/README.md`](features/README.md) is the maintained list of user-facing features and how to drive each one. Read it before you drive anything, and drive every entry point that the map lists for the feature you verify.

## Launch

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add coder/agent-tty/verify-agent-tty@sha256:dd1aecaf3bb3f04a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261102.8eff0f7, 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.
