SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Pickup Work — Two-Phase Task Execution helps teams coordinate work without stepping on each other by proposing the next task and awaiting user approval before execution.

Core Features & Use Cases

Propose-then-execute workflow to minimize conflicts in multi-agent environments.
Landscape awareness: detect active worktrees, branches, in-flight work to present isolation recommendations.
Batch tasks within a sprint wave to optimize throughput and coordination.

Quick Start

Ask me to pickup the next available task, and I will propose an isolation plan for approval.

FAQPage Schema

How do I coordinate multi-agent task execution without branch conflicts?▼

Multi-agent task execution without branch conflicts is coordinated by identifying unclaimed sprint tasks and proposing a two-phase isolation plan for user approval before making changes. This propose-then-execute workflow detects active worktrees and branches to present safe isolation recommendations.

How do I select the next unclaimed task in a sprint wave?▼

To select the next unclaimed task in a sprint wave, the system scans your PLAN.md file to identify available tasks. It then evaluates the current landscape of active worktrees and in-flight work to propose the optimal task for execution.

What is the propose-then-execute workflow for safe task isolation?▼

The propose-then-execute workflow for task isolation is a two-phase process where the system first recommends a worktree path and execution steps, then waits for user approval before changing the working state. This minimizes conflicts in multi-agent environments by ensuring safe concurrent work.

Can I batch tasks within a sprint wave to optimize throughput?▼

Yes, you can batch tasks within a sprint wave to optimize throughput and coordination. The system identifies batch opportunities during the proposal phase, allowing multiple related tasks to be grouped for safe concurrent work within isolated git worktrees.

Does this task management approach require a specific format for tracking work?▼

Yes, this task management approach requires tracking work in PLAN.md waves, branches, and worktrees. It is designed specifically for multi-agent software projects that use this structure to manage sprints and requires user approval before changing the working state.

When should I not use an automated task isolation proposal?▼

You should not use an automated task isolation proposal if your software project does not track tasks in PLAN.md waves or use git worktrees. The mechanism relies on detecting active worktrees and branches to formulate safe execution paths for multi-agent environments.
