Agent Sync

Run at the start of each session to sync with other agents and see what needs attention.

Steps

1. Pull Latest

git fetch origin main
git checkout main
git pull origin main

2. Check for Handoffs

Look for handoff notes addressed to this agent:

# List recent handoffs
ls -la kanban-work/handoffs/ 2>/dev/null | tail -10

# Check for unread handoffs (files modified in last 24h)
find kanban-work/handoffs/ -name "*.md" -mtime -1 2>/dev/null

If handoffs exist, read them and summarize what needs attention.

3. Check Items in Review

yurtle-kanban list --status review

Can this agent help review any of these? Show the list and offer to run /review EXP-XXX.

4. Check Blocked Items

yurtle-kanban list --status blocked

Can this agent unblock any of these? Show blockers and reasons.

5. Check My In-Progress Items

yurtle-kanban list --status in_progress

Are any of these assigned to this agent or stale? Recommend:

• Resume work on existing item, OR
• Pick up new work if nothing in progress

6. Show Ready Work

# Show ready items filtered by agent capability if tags exist
yurtle-kanban list --status ready --limit 5

7. Generate Sync Summary

Output a summary like:

## Agent Sync Complete

**Handoffs:** X pending (read them with `cat kanban-work/handoffs/...`)
**Reviews:** X items need review
**Blocked:** X items blocked
**In Progress:** X items (Y assigned to me)
