SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Coordinating AI coding agents across a multi-task development pipeline is chaotic: tasks get lost, progress goes unreported, dependencies break, and parallel agents work without observability. This Skill gives developer agents a structured workflow to claim tasks, execute work, self-check acceptance criteria, and submit for human verification within the Chorus AI-DLC platform.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Full Task Lifecycle Management: Claim, start, report, self-check acceptance criteria, and submit tasks for admin verification using Chorus MCP tools.
  • Parallel Subagent Orchestration: Spawn up to 4 concurrent Kiro subagents with session-based observability, wave-based DAG dependency resolution, and per-session attribution.
  • Review Gateway Integration: Trigger independent task-reviewer and code-reviewer subagents that post VERDICT comments before work ships.
  • Use Case: A PM agent creates a proposal with 8 tasks in a dependency DAG. The main agent spawns subagents wave by wave, each claiming tasks, reporting commits and PRs, self-checking acceptance criteria, and submitting for verification until the idea ships.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to check in with Chorus, list available tasks for the project, claim the highest-priority unblocked task, and start development following the chorus-develop workflow.

Frequently Asked Questions about chorus-develop

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I claim and execute a Chorus task as a developer agent?▼

Call chorus_get_available_tasks to find work, review it with chorus_get_task, then claim it via chorus_claim_task. Set status to in_progress with chorus_update_task, do the work, report with chorus_report_work, self-check acceptance criteria, and submit via chorus_submit_for_verify.

How do I run multiple coding tasks in parallel with Kiro subagents?▼

Use wave-based execution: call chorus_get_unblocked_tasks, spawn up to 4 subagents each with a task UUID and sessionUuid, wait for to_verify status, verify tasks to done, then fetch the next wave. Only done or closed tasks unblock downstream dependencies.

Why was my task rejected when setting status to in_progress?▼

Chorus enforces dependencies server-side: chorus_update_task rejects the transition if any dependsOn task is not done or closed. Use chorus_get_unblocked_tasks to find tasks you can start immediately.

Does a subagent need a session to work on Chorus tasks?▼

Yes. Subagents must call chorus_session_checkin_task before starting, pass sessionUuid to chorus_update_task and chorus_report_work for attribution, and call chorus_session_checkout_task when done. The main agent skips sessions entirely.

What happens after I submit a task for verification?▼

The main agent spawns a chorus-task-reviewer subagent that posts a VERDICT comment on the task. PASS proceeds to admin verification; FAIL lists blockers you must fix before resubmitting. The to_verify status does not unblock dependent tasks.

Why is my subagent's session not visible in the Chorus UI?▼

Sessions with no activity for one hour are hidden from default lists but still exist. Reach them via chorus_list_sessions or chorus_get_session, and send a heartbeat or any session-touching tool call to make the session visible again.
