# Worker Agent Guide

This guide describes how to run a headless Worker Agent using the Multi-Agent Workflow.

## 1. Setup

First, create a dedicated worktree for the worker:

```bash
./Omni/Agent/setup-worker.sh omni-worker-1
```

This creates `../omni-worker-1` sharing the same git history but with its own workspace and branch (`omni-worker-1`).

## 2. Worker Loop

The Worker Agent should run the following loop continuously:

### Step 1: Sync and Find Work

```bash
# Go to worker directory
cd ../omni-worker-1

# Sync tasks from the live branch
./Omni/Agent/sync-tasks.sh

# Check for ready tasks
task ready --json
```

### Step 2: Claim Task

If a task is found (e.g., `t-123`):

```bash
# Mark in progress
task update t-123 in-progress

# Commit the claim locally
./Omni/Agent/sync-tasks.sh --commit
```

### Step 3: Create Workspace

**CRITICAL: Determine the correct base branch.**

1.  **Check Dependencies**: Run `task deps t-123 --json`.
2.  **Check for Unmerged Work**: Look for dependencies that have existing branches (e.g., `task/t-parent-id`) which are NOT yet merged into `live`.
3.  **Select Base**:
    *   If you find an unmerged dependency branch, check it out: `git checkout task/t-parent-id`.
    *   Otherwise, start from fresh live code: `git checkout omni-worker-1` (which tracks `live`).

4.  **Create Feature Branch**:
    ```bash
    git checkout -b task/t-123
    ```

### Step 4: Implement

1.  Read task details: `task show t-123`
2.  Implement changes.
3.  **Run Tests**: `bild --test Omni/YourNamespace.hs`

### Step 5: Submit for Review

```bash
# 1. Mark for review
task update t-123 review

# 2. Commit implementation
git add .
git commit -m "feat: implement t-123"

# 3. Switch back to worker base branch to prepare for next loop
# This detaches the worker from the task branch so the Planner can check it out
git checkout omni-worker-1
./Omni/Agent/sync-tasks.sh
```

## 3. Planner (Reviewer) Workflow

The Planner Agent (running in the main repo) will:
1.  See tasks in `Review` status (after checking out the worker's branch or waiting for them to be merged).
    *   *Note: Since workers commit to local branches, you verify work by checking out their branch.*
2.  Check out the worker's branch: `git checkout task/t-123`.
3.  Review code and tests.
4.  Merge to `live`:
    ```bash
    git checkout live
    git merge task/t-123
    # Conflicts in tasks.jsonl are handled automatically by .gitattributes driver
    ```
5.  Mark Done:
    ```bash
    task update t-123 done
    git commit -am "task: t-123 done"
    ```

## Troubleshooting

If `sync-tasks.sh` reports a conflict:
1.  Manually run `task import -i .tasks/live-tasks.jsonl`
2.  If git merge conflicts occur in `tasks.jsonl`, the custom merge driver should handle them. If not, resolve by keeping the union of tasks (or letting `task import` decide).
