 "repo_url": "https://github.com/alex09x/kyb",
 "repo_slug": "alex09x-kyb",
 "title": "Track which agent holds each task and what it waits on",
 "page_title": "How to track which agent holds each task and what it waits on with Kyb",
 "summary": "Share task status, owners and blockers across agents so work is not picked up twice or lost.",
 "who": "A lead engineer splitting work across several agents on different machines who needs a shared view of open, blocked and finished tasks.",
 "problem": "Agents working in separate sessions cannot see who is doing what, so tasks get duplicated or dropped without a recorded outcome.",
 "outcome": "A shared task list with owners, blocked reasons and recorded outcomes, visible to every agent connected to the server.",
 "steps": [
  "Run the server with `kyb-server` and confirm the client reaches it.",
  "List the live work with `kyb tasks`.",
  "Move a task to blocked or in progress with `kyb task-status`, setting an assignee and a blocked reason when needed.",
  "Close a finished task with `kyb done`, giving the outcome as the resolution.",
  "Review who held a task and when with `kyb history <task-key>`. (inferred, check the README)"
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Use the KYB repo at alex09x/kyb. Run `kyb tasks` and list the tasks with status blocked and their blocked_reason. Expected output: one line per blocked task. Verify each reason by opening the task with `kyb get <task-key>`.",
 "agents": [
  "claude-code",
  "codex"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "1 hour",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README notes that terminal statuses done and dropped require a resolution, so a task cannot be closed with a bare status change.",
 "category": "Software and DevOps",
 "tags": [
  "Software and DevOps"
 ],
 "lang": "rust",
 "requirements": [
  "A Rust toolchain with cargo, to run cargo install knowyourbusiness --locked",
  "A host or Docker setup where the kyb-server process can keep its data directory",
  "Network access from agent machines to the server port, default 127.0.0.1:9310",
  "Optional: a model directory with model.onnx and tokenizer.json for hybrid search; without it the server runs lexical-only"
