Task delegation separates judgment-heavy human tasks from execution-heavy agent tasks by defining explicit task ownership, context requirements, and escalation protocols. This division of labor ensures clear ownership and smooth handoffs in collaborative workflows.

An execution contract establishes clear inputs, constraints, and success criteria for agent-owned work. It defines the specific context required by both human and AI actors to ensure smooth handoffs and optimal leverage during collaborative product development.

AI agent work should be escalated to human review when predefined escalation triggers are met. These conditions are established during task delegation to specify when agent execution requires human strategic input or final approval before proceeding.

Defining inputs and outputs for an AI agent drafting PRD sections requires creating an execution contract. This contract specifies the exact context, constraints, and success criteria the agent needs to generate the required product documentation.

Workflow automation can handle execution-heavy tasks like user story generation, but judgment-heavy tasks still require human strategic input. Task delegation planning defines exactly which parts an AI can draft and which require human final approval.
