SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Hermes Kanban task workers often run with incomplete guidance, risking mishandoffs, unsafe workspace usage, and unclear retry logic. This skill provides deep dive into Kanban worker pitfalls, safe handoffs, and diagnostics to reduce operational errors.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Detailed guidance on workspace types (scratch, dir:, worktree) and how isolation affects memory and state.
  • Clear block-handling and retry diagnostics to recover from failures.
  • Robust handoff patterns (kanban_complete, kanban_block) and CLI fallback guidance for operators.

Quick Start

Review the kanban guidance to implement safe handoffs and robust retry logic for Kanban tasks.

FAQPage Schema
How do I avoid common Kanban worker pitfalls during multi-agent task handoffs?▼

To avoid Kanban worker pitfalls during multi-agent handoffs, apply structured handoff patterns, clear block reasons, heartbeats, retries, and CLI fallbacks to reduce operational errors and mishandoffs.

What is the best way to handle workspace isolation and state in multi-agent Kanban coordination?▼

The best way to handle workspace isolation in Kanban coordination is selecting appropriate workspace types like scratch, dir:, or worktree, ensuring safe memory and state management across isolated environments.

How do I implement kanban_block and kanban_complete patterns for safe task handoffs?▼

To implement safe task handoffs with kanban_block and kanban_complete patterns, apply structured metadata including summary, metadata, and decisions to ensure clear block-handling and robust retry diagnostics.

Why do Kanban task workers fail during retries and how do I recover?▼

Kanban task workers fail during retries due to incomplete guidance on retry logic and unsafe workspace usage; recover by applying clear block-handling diagnostics and CLI fallback mechanisms.

Does multi-agent Kanban coordination require structured metadata for tenant isolation?▼

Yes, multi-agent Kanban coordination requires structured metadata for tenant isolation to satisfy operational requirements, ensuring safe workspace usage, clear handoffs, and proper state management across workers.
