What problem does it solve?
This Skill prevents Kanban worker failures by documenting lifecycle expectations, correct workspace handling, isolation rules, and how to structure handoffs so orchestrators can interpret outcomes reliably.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Workspace handling: Guides behavior across scratch, shared persistent directories, and Git worktrees so workers don’t corrupt state or lose progress.
- Tenant isolation: Ensures persistent memory is namespaced to avoid cross-tenant data leaks.
- Reliable handoffs: Defines how to call completion and blocking tools with well-shaped summaries and metadata for downstream parsing and dashboards.
- Edge-case resilience: Explains fast-answered block reasons, heartbeat conventions, and retry diagnostics using prior run outcomes.
Quick Start
Load the kanban-worker Skill when dispatched by the Kanban dispatcher so your system prompt includes KANBAN_GUIDANCE and you can use kanban_complete, kanban_block, and heartbeats with correct workspace and tenant-safe behavior.
