Task Distribution Skill

Overview

Distributes tasks to agents by priority, dependencies, and agent state.

Prerequisites

Requires gh CLI, AI Maestro API, and familiarity with amoa-label-taxonomy and amoa-messaging-templates.

Instructions

1. Query status:ready tasks, sort by priority (critical > high > normal > low), skip tasks with unresolved blockedBy deps
2. Select agent by availability, skill match, and load — see op-select-agent.md

3. Assign: add assign:<agent> + status:in-progress labels, send message via agent-messaging — see op-assign-task.md

4. Wait for ACK; if timeout, reassign per op-reassign-task.md

Dependency types: Hard (block), Soft (assign with note), None (parallel). Circular deps → escalate. See dependency-management.md

Load balancing: prefer lowest-load agent. See load-balancing.md

Blocked tasks: acknowledge, record, move to Blocked column, escalate. See blocked-task-handling.md

Copy this checklist and track your progress:

• Query and sort ready tasks; assign best-match agent
• Update labels and send AI Maestro message; wait for ACK
• If no ACK or blocked, reassign per op-reassign-task.md

Full checklist: distribution-workflow-checklist.md

Output

Assignment confirmation (label + ACK) and delegation log.

Examples

Input: 3 ready tasks, 2 agents — Output: Critical task assigned, labels updated, ACK received. See examples.md
