What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents mismatched task files, premature acceptance, and incorrect project progress by standardizing how Leader-owned task specs are created, how Worker results are validated, and how plan markers are updated.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Task delegation for ready DAG/Loop nodes: Delegates only nodes returned by the project plan (DAG via ready_nodes, Loop via ready_loop_nodes), writes Leader-owned meta.json/spec.md, and updates plan markers from pending to delegated.
  • Result checking with a strict contract: Checks a Worker’s submitted result (via check_task) and validates status/SUMMARY/DELIVERABLES against the expected protocol so downstream dependencies only advance after acceptance.
  • Project-safe control flow: Handles BLOCKED/REVISION_NEEDED/INTERRUPTED outcomes without incorrectly completing nodes, and enforces stop behavior when the project is paused to avoid invalid state transitions.
  • Ownership enforcement: Clearly separates what the Leader owns (task meta/spec) versus what the Worker owns (workspace, deliverables, result.md) and forbids Worker edits to project-level files.

Quick Start

Use task-management before any Leader taskflow call involving delegate_task or check_task, when handling task result statuses like SUCCESS, REVISION_NEEDED, BLOCKED, or INTERRUPTED.

FAQPage Schema
How do I validate multi-agent task results before advancing DAG dependencies?

To validate multi-agent task results before advancing DAG dependencies, check the submitted result against a strict acceptance contract parsing status, SUMMARY, and DELIVERABLES. This ensures downstream dependencies only advance after successful acceptance.

What is the correct way to delegate ready DAG and Loop workflow nodes?

Delegating ready DAG and Loop workflow nodes involves resolving ready nodes from the project plan, writing Leader-owned meta.json and spec.md files, and updating plan markers from pending to delegated to ensure auditable progression.

How do I handle BLOCKED or REVISION_NEEDED statuses in multi-agent orchestration?

When handling BLOCKED, REVISION_NEEDED, or INTERRUPTED statuses in multi-agent orchestration, apply strict project-safe control flow to avoid incorrectly completing nodes, ensuring the project stops or pauses without invalid state transitions.

Do I need a project-management plan to enforce task delegation and file ownership?

Yes, task delegation requires strict ready-node resolution from a project-management plan. It enforces ownership separation, where the Leader owns task meta/spec files and the Worker owns the workspace and deliverables.

How does file sync work when pulling shared task directories for task delegation?

File sync for task delegation relies on blocking sync rules to pull shared task and project directories. This prevents mismatched task files and ensures the Leader and Worker operate on the correct project state.
