Use when you are a registered relay agent (a spawned worker, or a lead that called register_agent) coordinating with peers in real time over current Agent Relay MCP tools - messaging, channels, threads, reactions, search, inbox, actions, and worker spawn/release. For role selection and orchestrator startup instructions, use https://agentrelay.com/skill and the orchestrating-agent-relay skill.
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
# Using Agent Relay Use this skill when you are already a registered Agent Relay participant, or when your session can register itself with `register_agent`. If you are deciding how to start Relay, spawn workers, or choose the right role, use the hosted handoff first: ```text https://agentrelay.com/skill ``` That page links both sides of the workflow: - outside orchestrators and human drivers use [`orchestrating-agent-relay`](https://github.com/AgentWorkforce/skills/blob/main/skills/orchestrating-agent-relay/SKILL.md) - spawned or registered participants use this `using-agent-relay` skill ## Role Check Use this skill if: - you were spawned into a Relay team - the prompt gave you a workspace key or Relay identity - you can call `set_workspace_key`, `create_workspace`, or `register_agent` - you need to ACK, report status, DM peers, post to channels, or check inbox Do not use this as the outside orchestrator playbook. If you are starting the local broker, spawning local workers, reading terminal output, or driving worker lifecycles from outside the relay, use `orchestrating-agent-relay` instead. ## Current MCP Tool Names …

How to install
mdr add agentworkforce/relay/using-agent-relay@sha256:1b5747250f933dceThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.4722976, 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.
