FAQPage Schema
How do I automate dispatching tasks from a TASKBOARD to AgentChat?

Task dispatch automation posts pending tasks from a TASKBOARD.md to AgentChat, allowing Portal2 to claim and execute them. It automatically routes claimed tasks and updates the TASKBOARD.md file upon completion.

What is the portal workflow for polling and executing tasks from a TASKBOARD?

The portal workflow involves Portal1 posting tasks to AgentChat, while Portal2 polls, claims, and executes them. The TASKBOARD is then automatically updated with completion status to maintain synchronization.

Can I check the status of dispatched tasks across the portal workflow?

Yes, you can check task status across the portal workflow using the status CLI command. This monitors the lifecycle of tasks dispatched from your TASKBOARD to AgentChat and tracks their execution progress.

How do I post the next pending task from TASKBOARD.md for execution?

You can post the next pending task from TASKBOARD.md using the post CLI command. This sends the task to AgentChat where Portal2 can automatically claim it, execute it, and update the board.

Does task dispatch support logging build IDs for traceability?

Yes, task dispatch supports optional build-id logging for traceability. This feature tracks tasks posted from TASKBOARD.md through the AgentChat execution lifecycle to maintain execution context.

What are the limitations of automating TASKBOARD task dispatch to AgentChat?

Task dispatch automation relies on a two-portal architecture where Portal1 posts and Portal2 polls and executes. It requires a TASKBOARD.md file and depends on AgentChat connectivity to route and complete tasks.
