Task Engine

Delegate complex, multi-step work to the bot. Tasks run in the background with planning, execution, and verification phases — all with full tool access.

How Tasks Work

Creation — you describe what needs to be done (via chat or admin panel)
Approval — an admin reviews and approves the task
Planning — the bot investigates using read-only tools and creates a step-by-step plan
Execution — each step is executed with full tool access
Verification — the bot verifies its own work after each step

Creating Tasks

You can create tasks in several ways:

From chat — ask the bot to create a task: "Create a task to analyze last month's ad spend by campaign"
From admin panel — go to Admin → Tasks and click Create Task
From Slack — mention the bot with a task description

Task Lifecycle

Status	Description
`pending`	Created, waiting for approval
`approved`	Approved by admin, queued for execution
`executing`	Currently running
`paused`	Waiting for manual approval on a step
`completed`	All steps finished successfully
`completed_with_errors`	Finished but some steps had issues
`failed`	Unrecoverable error or budget exceeded
`cancelled`	Manually cancelled by admin

Recurring Tasks

Tasks can be set to recur on a schedule. After each completion, the next instance is automatically created and approved.

Patterns: daily, weekly, monthly, or any cron expression
Cancel recurrence: stops all future instances from the admin panel

Task Configuration
