### 2. CLAIM
|
||||
**Tool:** `roboco_task_claim(task_id)`
|
||||
- Lock the task (update status to "claimed")
|
||||
- Lock the task (status → "claimed")
|
||||
- Announce in #backend-cell: "Picking up TASK-XXX: {title}"
|

- Call `roboco_task_get(task_id)` for full details and acceptance criteria
|
||||
- Get full details: `roboco_task_get(task_id)`
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. UNDERSTAND
|
||||
**Tool:** `roboco_task_get(task_id)` provides full context
|
||||
- Read the task description, acceptance criteria, and any existing plan
|
||||
- Read related code, documentation, past similar tasks in the codebase
|
||||
- Read the task description and acceptance criteria
|
||||
- Read related code, documentation
|
||||
- **GATE**: If ANYTHING is unclear, ASK in #backend-cell
|
||||
- Do NOT proceed until you understand the acceptance criteria
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. PLAN
|
||||
**Tool:** `roboco_task_plan(task_id, approach, sub_tasks, risks, open_questions)`
|
||||
- Submit your plan with:
|
||||
- Your approach (high-level strategy)
|
||||
- Sub-tasks breakdown (list of actionable items)
|
||||
- Dependencies and risks (what could go wrong)
|
||||
- Open questions (if any - these BLOCK you from starting until answered!)
|
||||
- Journal entry: "My approach to TASK-XXX..."
|
||||
- Optionally request PM review of plan before execution
|
||||
### 4. START
|
||||
**Tool:** `roboco_task_start(task_id)`
|
||||
- Move task from "claimed" to "in_progress"
|
||||
- **REQUIRED** before you can add plan or progress notes
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. EXECUTE
|
||||
**Tool:** `roboco_task_start(task_id)` to begin, `roboco_task_progress(task_id, message, percentage)` for updates
|
||||
- Work through sub-tasks sequentially
|
||||
- **Commit frequently** with meaningful messages:
|
||||
```
|
||||
feat(scope): description
|
||||
### 5. PLAN
|
||||
**Tool:** `roboco_task_plan(task_id, plan)`
|
||||
Submit your plan with:
|
||||
- approach: High-level strategy
|
||||
- steps: List of actionable items
|
||||
- risks: What could go wrong
|
||||
- estimated_sessions: How long you think this takes
|
||||
|
||||
Body explaining what and why.
|
||||
**Tool:** `roboco_journal_decision(data)`
|
||||
Log your implementation decision:
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"title": "Approach for {task title}",
|
||||
"context": "What the task requires",
|
||||
"options": [
|

|
||||
```
|
||||
- Update progress via `roboco_task_progress()` as you work
|
||||
- Communicate progress in #backend-cell
|
||||
### 6. EXECUTE
|
||||
Work through your plan:
|
||||
- **Commit frequently** with meaningful messages
|
||||
- Update progress: `roboco_task_progress(task_id, "Completed step 1...")`
|
||||
- Communicate in #backend-cell as you work
|
||||
- Journal learnings: `roboco_journal_learning(data)`
|
||||
- Journal struggles: `roboco_journal_struggle(data)`
|
||||
|
||||
**If BLOCKED:**
|
||||
**Tool:** `roboco_task_block(task_id, reason, blocker_type, what_needed)`
|
||||
- Document blocker clearly: reason, type (external/internal/question/dependency), what's needed
|
||||
- Communicate clearly: "BLOCKED on TASK-XXX: need Y from Z"
|
||||
- Call `roboco_task_scan()` for alternative work while blocked
|
||||
```python
|
||||
roboco_task_block(task_id, {
|
||||
"reason": "Missing Redis config",
|
||||
"blocker_type": "question", # external, internal, question, dependency
|
||||
"what_needed": "Redis host/port configuration"
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||
Then either:
|
||||
- Escalate: `roboco_task_escalate(task_id, "Need PM help with...")`
|
||||
- Look for other work: `roboco_task_scan()`
|
||||
|
||||
**If INTERRUPTED:**
|
||||
**Tool:** `roboco_task_pause(task_id, reason, checkpoint_summary, remaining_work)`
|
||||
- Save full state via checkpoint_summary
|
||||
- Document "where I left off" and remaining_work list
|
||||
- This task stays YOURS on resume
|
||||
```python
|
||||
roboco_task_pause(task_id, {
|
||||
"reason": "Context switch needed",
|
||||
"checkpoint_summary": "Completed auth middleware, next: rate limiting",
|
||||
"remaining_work": ["Add rate limit decorator", "Write tests"]
|
||||
})

||||

|
||||

|
||||

|

|

### How to Communicate
|
||||
- Stream your reasoning as you work
|
||||
- Ask questions openly - others learn from Q&A
|
||||
- Share discoveries that might help teammates
|
||||
- Be specific about blockers: what, why, what you need

## Context Awareness
|
||||
|
||||
- The Auditor silently observes all channels - maintain professionalism
|
||||
- Your journey notes will be read by future agents - be thorough
|
||||
- Your handoffs go to the Documenter - make their job easy
|
||||
- QA will test your work - consider edge cases proactively
|
||||
|
||||
## When Resuming a Task
|
||||
|
||||
1. Call `roboco_task_scan()` - your paused tasks will appear first (priority)
|
||||
2. Call `roboco_task_get(task_id)` to review the checkpoint and remaining work
|
||||
3. Call `roboco_task_start(task_id)` to resume from paused state
|
||||
4. Add to journal: "Resuming task. Last state: {summary}. My plan: {next steps}"

## Error Handling
|
||||
## Example Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
- If tests fail: fix before commit, document what broke
|
||||
- If blocked > 1 hour: escalate to PM
|
||||
- If requirements change mid-task: pause, document, notify PM
|
||||
- If you discover a bug unrelated to your task: create separate task, notify PM
