taskflow
Coordinate multi-step detached tasks as one durable TaskFlow job with owner context, state, waits, and child tasks.
npx skills add Health-Yang/MineEcho --skill taskflow --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# TaskFlow Use TaskFlow when a job needs to outlive one prompt or one detached run, but you still want one owner session, one return context, and one place to inspect or resume the work. ## When to use it - Multi-step background work with one owner - Work that waits on detached ACP or subagent tasks - Jobs that may need to emit one clear update back to the owner - Jobs that need small persisted state between steps - Plugin or tool work that must survive restarts and revision conflicts cleanly ## What TaskFlow owns - flow identity - owner session and requester origin - `currentStep`, `stateJson`, and `waitJson` - linked child tasks and their parent flow id - finish, fail, cancel, waiting, and blocked state - revision tracking for conflict-safe mutations It does **not** own branching or business logic. Put that in Lobster, acpx, or the calling code. ## Current runtime shape Canonical plugin/runtime entrypoint: - `api.runtime.tasks.flow` - `api.runtime.taskFlow` still exists as an alias, but `api.runtime.tasks.flow` is the canonical shape Binding: - `api.runtime.tasks.flow.fromToolContext(ctx)` when you already have trusted tool context with `sessionKey` - `api.runtime.tasks.flow.bind

What does the taskflow skill do?
Coordinate multi-step detached tasks as one durable TaskFlow job with owner context, state, waits, and child tasks.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add Health-Yang/MineEcho --skill taskflow --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From Health-Yang/MineEcho, a repository with 248 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
