What is a 'cell' in the Hive system?

A cell is a discrete work item, such as a bug, feature, or task, that contains metadata, descriptions, and state information used by AI agents to track progress.

Is Hive Workflow suitable for simple, one-off questions?

No, this skill is intended for structured task management. Simple explorations or questions do not require the overhead of creating and managing Hive cells.

Can I use Hive for multi-agent coordination?

Yes, it is specifically designed to work with swarm coordination skills, allowing a coordinator agent to create epics and assign subtasks to various worker agents.

How does Hive sync with my existing code?

Hive is a local-first system that uses the hive_sync tool to commit and push issue tracking data directly to your Git repository, ensuring tasks stay bundled with the source code.

What workflow states are supported?

The system supports standard transitions from 'open' to 'in_progress', and finally to 'closed' or 'blocked' if the task is dependent on other items.

Manages agentic work items and issue tracking through a local-first, git-integrated hive system.

The Hive Workflow skill empowers AI agents to track bugs, features, and tasks using a structured 'cell' system specifically designed for autonomous swarms. It bridges the gap between high-level project goals and granular implementation by providing tools for creating epics, managing subtasks, and synchronizing progress via Git. This skill is essential for maintaining organized development cycles within multi-agent environments, ensuring that every piece of work is documented, tracked, and properly transitioned through its lifecycle from discovery to resolution.
