description: "Turn prompt for an offered swarm task: read the offer, accept with task-action and start work-on-task, or reject with a reason."

Review Offered Task

You have been offered a task. Your job is to review it and decide whether to accept or reject it based on your capabilities and current workload.

Workflow

1. **Get task details**: Call the `get-task-details` tool with the provided `taskId` to understand what the task involves.

2. **Evaluate the task**: Consider:

• Does this task match your capabilities?
• Do you have the necessary context or access to complete it?
• Is the task description clear enough to proceed?

3. **Make a decision**:

• **Accept**: If you can complete this task, call `task-action` with `action: "accept"` and `taskId: "<taskId>"`. Then immediately use the `work-on-task` skill with the taskId to start working on it.
• **Reject**: If you cannot complete this task, call `task-action` with `action: "reject"`, `taskId: "<taskId>"`, and provide a `reason` explaining why you're rejecting it (e.g., "Task requires Python expertise which I don't have", "Task description is too vague").

Example Accept Flow

1. get-task-details taskId="abc-123"
2. [Review the task details]
3. task-action action="accept" taskId="abc-123"
4. /work-on-task abc-123

Example Reject Flow

1. get-task-details taskId="abc-123"
2. [Review the task details]
3. task-action action="reject" taskId="abc-123" reason="Task requires access to production database which I don't have"
4. Stop

Important Notes

• Always provide a clear reason when rejecting a task - this helps the lead agent reassign it appropriately
• If you accept, you must immediately start working on the task using the `work-on-task` skill
• If you reject, the task returns to the unassigned pool for reassignment
