Understand Todo Dispatch and Dependency Context

Automatic dependency context injection and completion tracking during parallel execution.

Demonstrating Understand Todo Dispatch and Dependency Context in Jerico

On this page

Dependency Injection

When a todo is ready for execution, Jerico does not dispatch it in isolation. It injects the completed context and output summary from parent todos directly into the assigned developer agent's session.

Live Completion Tracking

  • Panel Matching: Free developer panels with matching engine roles are selected automatically.
  • Status Stream: Jerico updates todo states in real-time (pendingassignedrunningcompleted).
  • Retries and Watchdog: If a todo times out or its output goes stale, the watchdog retries it up to twice; if it still fails, the todo is marked failed and its dependents are blocked, leaving the rest of the run graph intact. Repeated failures can circuit-break the run and block remaining pending work for you to review.
