Read when a Task Card needs a truthful renderer, lifecycle recovery, settings, or projection boundary; routine schema-sufficient calls can use the action directly.

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

# task_card manual

`task_card` is one channel-neutral producer per agent: it writes the full body to
`taskcard/taskcard.md` and exact `active`/`inactive` to `taskcard/status`.

## First action

Routine schema-sufficient calls do not need this manual. For meaningful
long-running, multi-step, or parallel work, start a truthful watch:

```python
task_card(action="start", input={"renderer_path": "renderer.py"},
          reasoning="publish truthful progress for the long-running work")
```

Use `action`, strict action `input`, and root `reasoning`; root `summarize` is
optional presentation control (leave it false for exact manual text or paths).
`renderer_path` must resolve after symlink resolution to an existing regular
Python file inside the working directory. It must exit successfully with
nonempty stdout, which is the full body. Over-limit output is refused, not
truncated; the producer atomically writes the body before exact `active`. Only
one watch is allowed. Skip quick single-step or ritual work and any renderer
that cannot stay truthful.

## Lifecycle decisions

Use the schema for action fields; `inspect` reports current watch/body/error.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add lingtai-ai/lingtai-kernel/task_card-manual@sha256:b8f21da295c8dc30

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260909.eddb273, 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.
