task-father

Create and manage durable, file-based task state machines under the OpenClaw workspace. Target filesystem shape: TASK_REGISTRY.md (global index) tasks/<task_slug>/ TASK.md (front matter + purpose/decisions/blockers/changelog + capabilities) TODOS.md (checklist) scripts/ crons/ artifacts/ optional queue-state files (queue.jsonl, done.jsonl, failed.jsonl, lock.json)

Prerequisites

Run on host where OpenClaw is running: python3 --version openclaw status openclaw cron --help

Configuration (portable)

Skill-local config files: Example (shareable): config.env.example Real machine config: config.env Keys: WORKSPACE_DIR (default: /home/miles/.openclaw/workspace) TASKS_DIR (default: tasks) REGISTRY_FILE (default: TASK_REGISTRY.md) DEFAULT_AGENT_ID (default: main) DEFAULT_CRON_TZ (default: America/Indianapolis)

Preferred (chat-first)

Answer in chat: task slug (filesystem-safe) task title task purpose optional skills/plugins/tools expected for this task whether queue files are needed whether a cron job should be created now Then run: python3 scripts/task_father.py init <slug> --title "..." --purpose "..." --skills "a,b" --plugins "x,y" --tools "read,write,exec" optional queue mode: python3 scripts/task_father.py enable-queue <slug> optional cron setup: python3 scripts/task_father.py cron-add <slug> --cron "*/10 * * * *" --message "<worker prompt>" --name "task-<slug>"

Optional (terminal)

cp config.env.example config.env Edit config.env Initialize task: python3 scripts/task_father.py init <slug> --title "..."

Lifecycle commands

Set task status (updates state.json + changelog): python3 scripts/task_father.py set-state <slug> active Append changelog entry: python3 scripts/task_father.py log <slug> "blocked by API quota" Enable queue files: python3 scripts/task_father.py enable-queue <slug> Add cron: python3 scripts/task_father.py cron-add <slug> --cron "*/5 * * * *" --message "..." --name "task-<slug>" Remove cron: python3 scripts/task_father.py cron-rm <slug> --name "task-<slug>"

Task documentation contract

Each task must contain: TASK.md with front matter and sections: Purpose Important Decisions Blockers Capabilities (skills/plugins/tools) Change Log (timestamp + short description) TODOS.md with checklist items. If queue-style long processing is used: queue.jsonl, done.jsonl, failed.jsonl, lock.json. Scripts under: <task_folder>/scripts/ Cron files under: <task_folder>/crons/

Reproducibility notes

Keep machine-specific values in config.env, not in SKILL.md. Keep logs append-only where possible. Use small resumable batches for long work.

Category context

Agent frameworks, memory systems, reasoning layers, and model-native orchestration.
