Use when asked to analyse, review, or refresh an external agent runtime, orchestration system, agent operating layer, agent memory/knowledge/context-engineering system, or narrower model-dependent operational mechanism from inspectable sources.

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

# Analyse an Agentic System

Analyse one external agentic system at one frozen evidence boundary and publish its accepted artifact with the overview as the public entry point. Code runs the analysis as a workflow in one process: it opens the run, acquires the source, launches each role's worker through its harness's headless mode, checks and verifies every result, corrects what was refused, and publishes. You confirm the target, prepare the worktree, start the run, and report.

Invocation authorizes the run directory under `kb/agentic-system-analyses/state/` and the retained analysis under `kb/agentic-system-analyses/retained/<publication-name>/`; code writes both. Code acquires and freezes a GitHub source's checkout under `related-systems/`; the boundary worker may freeze other sources under its source rules; later workers read them read-only. Invocation does not authorize editing source content, auxiliary indexes or surveys, transfer scans, landscape synthesis, other retained reports, or Git staging and commits.

## Confirm the target

Before preparing a worktree or starting a run, identify the system and its source

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add zby/commonplace/analyse-agentic-system@sha256:37d643938af704ac

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261023.9c7563b, 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.
