The task board

Every project has a Tasks page. You and your connected tools use the same board, so the next piece of work is clear.

Board columns

To do is work that no tool holds.
Claimed means a tool has taken the task but has not started it yet.
In progress is active work.
Stalled means Seggo saw that a held task stopped, for example at a usage limit.
Needs review is finished work waiting for you to check.
Done is accepted work.

A blocked task stays unavailable until every task it depends on is Done. A task can also be marked Best for one or more tools.

Add and organise tasks

Choose New task, or use the + in To do for a quick title. Open the task to add details, priority, labels, dependencies and the tools it is best for.

Drag a card between columns, or focus it and press Alt + Left or Right. Board and List views share search and filters. Team today summarises work in progress, blocked work, expired claims and finished work from real task records.

Let a tool take work

Open a task and choose Give to a tool… or Open in <tool>. A connected tool can also ask Seggo for the next suitable task. Two tools asking at the same time receive different tasks.

Seggo skips blocked tasks and tasks whose known files overlap active work. It prefers tasks marked for that tool, then priority and board order. A task with no recorded files cannot be checked for overlap yet.

The tool should mark the task In progress when it starts and save checkpoints while it works. Its claim has a lease. A checkpoint, task update or heartbeat renews it. If the lease expires, the task returns to To do with its checkpoints and task folder kept.

Choose what happens when work finishes

In Project settings, Finished work needs review is on by default. A tool that finishes moves the task to Needs review. You can approve it or request changes with a note.

Turn it off if you want tools to mark finished work as Done themselves. That only changes the review step. Tools still can’t merge or push.

The optional When a tool finishes a task, let it take the next one setting is off by default. When it’s on, a tool that finishes and asks Seggo can take another task. It never wakes an idle tool. You can limit how many tasks it takes in a row and set overrides per tool.

Peer review between tools

A different tool can review finished work before it’s marked done, like a teammate reading a pull request.

Your AI team, above the board, shows each connected tool with its role, what it’s doing, and how much it shipped and reviewed today.
Give each tool a role in Project settings > Team roles, such as “Builder” or “Reviewer”. A role is only a label that helps Seggo suggest a reviewer.
When a task reaches Needs review, its panel suggests a teammate to review it, with the reason. It is never the tool that did the work. Choose Ask <tool> to review, then Open or copy the prompt. Nothing opens until you click.
The reviewer approves or requests changes. If it asks for changes, its notes go back to the tool that wrote the work first, and the card shows Changes requested · Round 1.
After a teammate approves, the card shows Peer approved, and Seggo waits for your final OK by default. A reviewer can’t merge or push.

Under Peer review in Project settings, choose Manual, Suggest a reviewer when done, or Reviews first when a tool asks for work.

Tool usage and room left

The Tool usage strip, on the Tasks tab and Continue, shows each connected tool as Ready, Busy, Near limit, Out until a reset time, or Unknown. It comes only from what each tool records on your computer. Seggo doesn’t know your plan’s limits and never sends usage anywhere.

With Prefer tools with room left on (the default, in Settings > Tool usage), Seggo suggests handing work to a tool that isn’t near its limit. Hand to… marks tools that are busy, near a limit or out.

Inbox and daily digest

The bell in the top bar lists what needs you: work to review, work ready to merge, a tool that ran out of usage or handed off, and stuck work. Click a row to jump to the task.

Desktop notifications are off until you turn them on in Settings > Notifications. You can choose which kinds alert you and set quiet hours.
The Daily digest, from the bell, sums up today: what’s waiting for your review, what finished, merged or was handed off, and which tools are near their limit. Copy as text gives you a version to share.
