Task Execution

Tasks are the fundamental units of work within Panacea. Each task is a specific instruction that an agent needs to execute. Tasks can be handled in series or in parallel, depending on their nature and dependencies.

Execution Modes

• Sequential Execution: Tasks are executed one after another, suitable for dependent tasks where the output of one task is required for the next.
• Parallel Execution: Multiple tasks are executed simultaneously, ideal for independent tasks that can be processed concurrently to save time.

Task Lifecycle

1. Creation: Tasks are created based on user queries or predefined workflows.
2. Assignment: The orchestrator assigns tasks to the appropriate agents.
3. Execution: Agents execute the tasks within their environments.
4. Completion: Upon successful execution, results are returned and logged.
5. Monitoring: Ongoing tracking ensures tasks are completed as expected.

Task Management Features

• Priority Levels: Assign priorities to tasks to manage execution order effectively.
• Dependency Handling: Manage task dependencies to ensure proper execution flow.
• Error Handling: Implement mechanisms to handle task failures gracefully, including retries and fallbacks.
