Use when the developer hands the agent a bounded batch to run unattended in a T4-team repo (T4 Labs / Slow-Inc) and steps away — "AFK", "run this while I'm away", "just handle it / take it from here", "clear the ready-for-agent queue", "keep going without me", or any long autonomous run where no human will approve each decision. Covers the preflight scope-lock, the may-decide-alone vs must-park boundary, the safe per-item loop, the stop-and-park conditions, and how to land the batch so the…

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

# T4 AFK (unattended autonomous batch)

## Overview

AFK = the developer walks away and the agent clears a **pre-agreed, bounded worklist** on its own, making every implementation decision itself. The whole risk of AFK is a single question the developer isn't there to answer: *is this decision mine to make, or must I stop and leave it?* Get it wrong in **either** direction and AFK breaks — guess past a real decision, or stop to ask what's already answered (see "Act on what's already decided" below). This skill draws that line and keeps the tree safe across a long unattended run.

**AFK does not relax any T4 rule — it removes the human checkpoint, so the rules must hold themselves.** Every gate that a developer would normally eyeball (TDD, `/verify`, `/code-review`, `/scrutinize`, `/security-review`, `/simplify`, issue reconciliation) still runs; the only change is that a **failed gate parks the item** instead of asking a human. Autonomy is bounded scope executed rigorously — never "the dev is away, so power through."

## When to use

- The developer explicitly goes AFK / says "handle it" / "take it from here" and expects a batch done on return.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add xenodeve/xeno-skills/t4-afk@sha256:696e98d5b2ef6f60

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260819.57c1630, 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.
