# Agent Tasks
|
|
|
|
Bounded, approval-aware prompts for agents working in `tegwick-control`.
|
|
|
|
## When to use
|
|
|
|
Create an agent task when:
|
|
|
|
- the work stays inside this repository (drafting, structuring, summarizing);
|
|
- boundaries and forbidden changes are clear;
|
|
- human approval gates are explicit;
|
|
- the task is ready to hand to an agent without further triage.
|
|
|
|
Do **not** use agent tasks for:
|
|
|
|
- implementation work in other repos (prepare the prompt here, execute elsewhere);
|
|
- legal, tax, or financial conclusions;
|
|
- converting options into commitments without approval.
|
|
|
|
## Layout
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
agent-tasks/
|
|
├── README.md this file
|
|
├── <area>-<action>-<subject>.md ready agent prompts
|
|
└── archive/ completed or superseded tasks
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Flat layout by default. Move finished tasks to `archive/` during review.
|
|
|
|

|
|
| action | `review`, `surface`, `draft`, `classify` |
|
|
| subject | `critical-path`, `area-cards`, `migration-slice` |
|

Examples:
|
|
|
|
- `binky-surface-critical-path.md`
|
