What problem does it solve?
This skill provides a standardized worker protocol for OMX teams, enabling reliable startup, identity handling, and task lifecycle management through ACKs, inbox processing, and mailbox communications.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Startup protocol and identity parsing: Validates OMX_TEAM_WORKER environment and team/worker naming, performs an initial ACK to the leader before any work.
- Inbox-driven task lifecycle: Reads inbox, claims tasks safely, processes tasks, and transitions status using provided CLI tooling.
- Mailbox and dispatch coordination: Interacts with mailbox and dispatch state to ensure ordered delivery and state-first governance, with support for task claiming, release, and requeue as needed.
- Shutdown and reliability: Respects shutdown instructions and updates worker status accordingly.
Quick Start
Start by running the worker with a valid OMX_TEAM_WORKER, then read and claim tasks from your inbox to drive the lifecycle from in_progress to completed.
