Finishes inherited work while preserving credit. Use when the user asks to take over a PR,.
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
# Takeover Take responsibility for finishing the original goal while preserving the original contributors' credit. Do not defend an implementation just because another agent already built it. Read the source PR, branch, or thread, including review findings and the user's later corrections. Resolve the handoff to the actual code and current head, and account for uncommitted work. Treat the handoff as context, not proof. For an Amp source thread, use `read_thread` with full context. A thread message does not transfer code: identify the source checkout and use Amp's file-transfer tools for unpushed changes before continuing. Verify the received head and dirty files. For contributor credit, use `manage_amp` with topic `git_identity` and operation `add-coauthor` for the verified user ID; never guess their email. For a replacement PR, import the original commits onto a new branch and add your fixes separately. Honor an explicitly requested in-place or stacked continuation instead. Do not overwrite unrelated work or change the original PR without authorization. Preserve Git authorship and existing co-author trailers. Credit the original …

How to install
mdr add pc-style/x-md/taking-over-work@sha256:9b2f1a209706d355The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261105.1db6cee, 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.
