Report Results

When to Use

Use after finishing any task or mail request to report results clearly so downstream agents and the orchestrator can act on your output.

Procedure

After Completing a Task Board Task

1. Update the task status with a clear summary:

   task.sh update <task-id> --status completed \
     --result "Produced /home/shared/analysis/report.md covering X, Y, Z. Found 3 critical issues."
   

2. If relevant, email the person who will consume your output:

   echo "Completed the analysis. Results at /home/shared/analysis/report.md" | \
     mail -s "Analysis complete" downstream-agent
   

After Completing a Mail Request

Reply directly to the sender:

mail -s "Re: Original subject" sender-name <<'EOF'
Summary of what was done.

Results are at: /home/shared/path/to/output.md
EOF

Result Summary Format

A good result summary includes:

• What was produced (file paths)
• Key findings or metrics (numbers, not vague statements)
• Any issues or caveats the next agent should know about
