What problem does it solve? In an Agentic Project Management (APM) session, Worker agents need a consistent, repeatable way to register their identity, load the correct procedural guides, and begin executing tasks assigned through the file-based message bus. This Skill standardizes that initiation so Workers start with the right context every time. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Agent Registration: Resolves the agent identifier against .apm/bus/ directory names and verifies the task, report, and handoff bus files exist. - Handoff Continuation: Detects handoff bus content and loads prior instance logs so a new Worker can resume mid-task or mid-batch work. - Task Execution Loop: Directs the Worker through executing task prompts, logging outcomes, writing task reports, and awaiting the next assignment. - Use Case: A user running a multi-agent APM project invokes this command to spin up a Worker instance that picks up its assigned task from the bus, executes it, logs the result, and reports back to the Manager. ## Quick Start Invoke the apm-3-initiate-worker skill with your agent identifier to register as a Worker and begin executing tasks from the APM message bus.
