Use when a PD session hits context >= 80% (or >70% at a clean phase boundary) to save state, write a continuation manifest and emit RESPAWN_REQUEST so the parent respawns a fresh PD. Max 3 context-pressure respawns per project per 24h. Not for finishing decomposition alone.
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
# /respawn-self — PD Context-Aware Self-Respawn
## When to Invoke
- **Mandatory:** when context window reaches 80% (CONTEXT_PCT_ALERT fires)
- **Proactive:** at a clean phase boundary (all current L3s done) when context > 70%
- **Never mid-L3:** do not invoke while an L3 Coord is in flight — wait for ACK/NACK
from the current Coord, complete the phase, then respawn
## Respawn Counter Enforcement
Max 3 respawns per project per 24h. Counter lives at:
`~/.claude/state/respawn-counters/{slug}.txt` (format: `{count} {epoch-timestamp-of-reset}`)
```bash
SLUG="{project-slug}"
COUNTER_FILE="$HOME/.claude/state/respawn-counters/$SLUG.txt"
NOW=$(date +%s)
DAY=86400
mkdir -p "$HOME/.claude/state/respawn-counters"
if [ -f "$COUNTER_FILE" ]; then
COUNT=$(awk '{print $1}' "$COUNTER_FILE")
RESET_AT=$(awk '{print $2}' "$COUNTER_FILE")
AGE=$(( NOW - RESET_AT ))
if [ "$AGE" -ge "$DAY" ]; then
COUNT=0
RESET_AT=$NOW
fi
else
COUNT=0
RESET_AT=$NOW
fi
if [ "$COUNT" -ge 3 ]; then
echo "RESPAWN_BLOCKED: max 3 respawns reached for $SLUG in last 24h. Save state and stop — manual restart needed."
exit 1
fi
NEW_COUNT=$(( COUNT + 1 ))

How to install
mdr add tekkiiiii/the-agency/respawn-self@sha256:369641c68870a955The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261007.04729ed, 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.
