Task Commands

Dispatch (Auto-Route)

node scripts/colony.mjs dispatch "research best practices for API rate limiting"

Automatically detects the best agent based on task keywords.

Assign to Specific Agent

node scripts/colony.mjs assign scout "find top 5 time-series databases"
node scripts/colony.mjs assign pincer "refactor the auth module to use JWT"
node scripts/colony.mjs assign shell "deploy the staging branch"

Check Status

node scripts/colony.mjs status

Shows all agents and their current tasks.

Get Results

node scripts/colony.mjs results              # Latest completed task
node scripts/colony.mjs results abc123       # Specific task by ID

View History

node scripts/colony.mjs history              # Last 10 completed/failed
node scripts/colony.mjs history --limit 20   # Custom limit

Process Commands

Processes are multi-stage workflows that chain agents together.

List Available Processes

node scripts/colony.mjs processes

Start a Process

node scripts/colony.mjs process <process-name> --context "description"

Examples:

node scripts/colony.mjs process validate-idea --context "AI-powered meal planning for busy parents"
node scripts/colony.mjs process content-pipeline --context "How to use vector databases for RAG"
node scripts/colony.mjs process product-launch --context "Life Lunch ritual kit for parents"
node scripts/colony.mjs process bug-triage --context "Login fails with OAuth on mobile"

Check Process Status

node scripts/colony.mjs process-status           # Show latest run
node scripts/colony.mjs process-status abc123    # Specific run

node scripts/colony.mjs runs --limit 5       # Last 5

Approve Checkpoint

When a process hits a checkpoint, it pauses for human approval:

node scripts/colony.mjs approve abc123

Also used to retry a failed stage.

Cancel a Process

node scripts/colony.mjs cancel abc123

How Processes Work

1. **Start** - Process creates a run entry and spawns first stage agent

2. **Execute** - Each stage runs with inputs from previous stages

3. **Checkpoint** - If stage is a checkpoint, process pauses for approval

4. **Continue** - After approval, next stage runs

5. **Complete** - All stages done, outputs in `colony/context/<run-id>/`

Context Passing

`{context}` in task templates is replaced with your --context value

Stage outputs are saved to `colony/context/<run-id>/<output-file>`

Next stage reads inputs from previous stage's output files

Agent memory and global context are injected into prompts

Full task history in `tasks.json`

Parallel Stages

Stages that share the same `parallel_group` run concurrently:

stages:
  - id: spec
    agent: forge
    inputs: [analysis.md]
    parallel_group: "final"  # Stages with same group run together
    
  - id: estimate
    agent: ledger
    inputs: [analysis.md]
    parallel_group: "final"  # Same group = parallel execution

When the process reaches a parallel group:

1. All consecutive stages with the same `parallel_group` are collected

2. All stages spawn concurrently (using `Promise.all()`)

3. Process waits for ALL parallel stages to complete

4. If any stage fails, the entire group fails

5. Checkpoints work per-group (pause after all parallel stages complete)

Output shows parallel execution clearly:

═══ Parallel Group: final (2 stages) ═══
    → Stage 4: spec (forge)
    → Stage 5: estimate (ledger)

--- [PARALLEL] Stage 4/5: spec ---
--- [PARALLEL] Stage 5/5: estimate ---

═══ Parallel Group: final completed ═══

**When to use parallel groups:**

Stages that read the same inputs (no dependencies on each other)

Build + copy tasks (both depend on spec, not on each other)

Multiple analyses of the same data

Independent research threads

**Processes with parallel stages:**

`validate-idea`: spec + estimate run in parallel

`product-launch`: build + copy run in parallel

Notifications

Colony can send notifications when processes hit checkpoints, complete, or fail. Notifications use `openclaw cron wake` to alert you.

**Configuration** (`colony/config.yaml`):

notifications:
  enabled: true         # Master switch for all notifications
  on_checkpoint: true   # Notify when process pauses at checkpoint
  on_complete: true     # Notify when process finishes
  on_failure: true      # Notify when process/stage fails

**Manage via CLI:**

# View current config
node scripts/colony.mjs config

# Disable all notifications
node scripts/colony.mjs config set notifications.enabled false

# Enable only failure notifications
node scripts/colony.mjs config set notifications.on_checkpoint false
node scripts/colony.mjs config set notifications.on_complete false
node scripts/colony.mjs config set notifications.on_failure true

**Notification examples:**

🛑 `Colony checkpoint: Process "validate-idea" paused after stage "analyze". To continue: colony approve abc123`

✅ `Colony complete: Process "validate-idea" finished in 120s. Run ID: abc123`

❌ `Colony failed: Process "validate-idea" failed at stage "research". Error: Agent timed out. Run ID: abc123`

Checkpoints

Checkpoints pause the process for human review. Two ways to define:

1. In process `checkpoints` array (after that stage completes)

2. As a standalone stage with `checkpoint: true` (human-only review step)

Customization

Add New Agents

Edit `colony/agents.yaml`:

agents:
  myagent:
    role: specialist
    description: >
      What this agent does...
    model: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4
    triggers:
      - keyword1
      - keyword2

After adding, create their memory file:

touch colony/memory/myagent.md

Add New Processes

Edit `colony/processes.yaml`:

processes:
  my-process:
    description: "What this process does"
    triggers: [keyword1, keyword2]
    stages:
      - id: stage1
        agent: scout
        task: "Do something with: {context}"
        outputs: [output1.md]
      - id: stage2
        agent: pincer
        task: "Next step based on previous"
        inputs: [output1.md]
        outputs: [output2.md]
    checkpoints: [stage1]  # Optional: pause after these stages

Integration

Works with OpenClaw's agent sessions.

**Dispatch/Assign (async):** Tasks are spawned in the background and the CLI returns immediately. Use `colony status` to monitor progress and `colony results <task-id>` to view output.

**Process stages (blocking):** Multi-stage processes run sequentially, waiting for each stage to complete before proceeding. This ensures proper data flow between stages and checkpoint handling.

Each agent receives:

Their role description

Lessons from their memory file

Active facts from global context

Project/preference context

Examples

Validate a Startup Idea

node scripts/colony.mjs process validate-idea \
  --context "Subscription box for home coffee brewing experiments"

Watch as it flows: brainstorm → research → analyze → (checkpoint) → spec → estimate

Write and Publish a Blog Post

node scripts/colony.mjs process content-pipeline \
  --context "Why RAG is eating traditional search"

Stages: research → draft → (human review) → publish → promote

Quick Research Task

node scripts/colony.mjs dispatch "compare Pinecone vs Weaviate vs Milvus"

Auto-routes to scout, returns comparison.
