FAQPage Schema
How do I coordinate multi-step tasks across agents with reliable handoffs?

Coordinate multi-step tasks by classifying work, decomposing it into bounded units, and enforcing explicit handoff contracts. This ensures reliable end-to-end completion across agents through structured routing and evidence-based verification before acceptance.

What is evidence-based verification for task handoff contracts?

Evidence-based verification requires workers to provide documented proof of completion against structured acceptance criteria before a handoff contract is accepted. If evidence is insufficient, the system triggers escalation handling and rejection with documented reasons.

How do I decompose complex work into bounded units for cross-team orchestration?

Decompose complex work by performing intake classification to break tasks into bounded units. Explicit routing decisions then dispatch these units to workers with defined dispatch contracts, ensuring each unit has structured acceptance criteria for verification.

Can I use structured acceptance criteria to handle task escalation and rejection?

Yes, structured acceptance criteria enable explicit acceptance or rejection with documented reasons. When evidence-based verification fails, the system handles escalation automatically and provides guidance for next actions to resolve the failed handoff contract.

What is the best way to orchestrate cross-team coordination for multi-step work?

Orchestrate cross-team coordination by creating explicit routing decisions and handoff contracts for bounded work units. This approach enforces verification and provides guidance for next actions, ensuring reliable outcomes across distributed teams and agents.

When do I need task decomposition and dispatch contracts for agent orchestration?

Task decomposition and dispatch contracts are needed when end-to-end completion requires coordinated handoffs across multiple agents. Use this approach when work must be classified, routed explicitly, and verified through evidence-based acceptance criteria.
