How to track which agent holds each task and what it waits on with Kyb

Share task status, owners and blockers across agents so work is not picked up twice or lost.

Authorization notice. Kyb is dual-use. Only use it on software, sites and systems you own or have explicit permission to test.

Who it is forA lead engineer splitting work across several agents on different machines who needs a shared view of open, blocked and finished tasks.

The problemAgents working in separate sessions cannot see who is doing what, so tasks get duplicated or dropped without a recorded outcome.

The outcomeA shared task list with owners, blocked reasons and recorded outcomes, visible to every agent connected to the server.

What you need first

  • 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

Steps

  1. Run the server with kyb-server and confirm the client reaches it.
  2. List the live work with kyb tasks.
  3. Move a task to blocked or in progress with kyb task-status, setting an assignee and a blocked reason when needed.
  4. Close a finished task with kyb done, giving the outcome as the resolution.
  5. Review who held a task and when with kyb history <task-key>. (inferred, check the README)

Prompt for your agent

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>`.

Caveat. The README notes that terminal statuses done and dropped require a resolution, so a task cannot be closed with a bare status change.

Use this in your AI agent
