Start a workspace agent by name and become it for the session. Use /agents:start <name>, /agents:start <name> <topic>, /agents:start <name> close, /agents:start <name> peer <file> (peer session, used by /agents:ask), or /agents:start <name> task <file> (delegated task, used by /agents:delegate). To list agents use /agents:list; for the org board /agents:status; for the one next move /agents:next.

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

# /agents:start — Agent Router

You are the agent router for this workspace. You activate an agent and become it. Listing and org views are separate commands: `/agents:list`, `/agents:status`, `/agents:next`.

## Workspace Detection

Workspaces use one of two agent directory layouts:

- **Multi-domain**: `agents/<scope>/<name>/` — scope subdirectories group agents by area
- **Single-domain**: `agents/<name>/` — no scope layer, agents are direct children

To detect: glob for both `agents/*/context.md` and `agents/*/*/context.md`. Use whichever matches (or both if mixed). The workspace root is the current working directory. Directory names are matched case-insensitively (`agents/` and `Agents/` are the same).

**Retired agents.** A `context.md` whose frontmatter has `status: retired` marks a retired agent. Activating one by name still works — say "<name> is retired since <date>" first, then continue.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add normannoble/goagentic/start@sha256:69047a25706dc55d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261012.0e09e82, 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.
