What problem does it solve?
This Skill addresses the need for clear and timely communication about the status of long-running tasks, preventing uncertainty and ensuring everyone is informed about progress, completion, or failures.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Manual Status Updates: Send single, immediate status messages for specific task milestones.
- Automatic Periodic Monitoring: For tasks exceeding a minute, automatically sends "Still working..." updates every 5 seconds to provide continuous reassurance.
- Status Types: Clearly categorizes updates as
progress, success, error, or warning with corresponding emojis/ASCII symbols.
- Use Case: When running a data migration that might take hours, you can start the automatic monitor. It will periodically send updates, and you can stop it with a final success or error message, keeping your team informed without manual intervention.
Quick Start
Start automatic monitoring for a task named 'data_processing' with progress updates every 5 seconds.
