📖About & Usage

Owner agent — accountability this droid serves

Merlin must take each strategic step and turn it into a detailed work plan, then dispatch the right team members in the right sequence. MS-01 solves the sequencing: given a list of team members assigned to a task, it orders them properly.

Droid responsibility

MS-01 determines the order in which Merlin will involve each team member. It uses a standard workflow order by default (analyst, designer, builder, tester, reviewer), but Merlin can override it if the task calls for a different flow. This sequence forms the backbone of Merlin's execution plan.

What the droid actually does

  • Takes a task and a list of team members assigned to it
  • Orders them using the standard role sequence (analyst → designer → builder → tester → reviewer), or a custom sequence if Merlin provides one
  • Validates the input for correct format and rejects duplicates or malformed data
  • Outputs an ordered list where each team member's work depends on the previous one

Boundaries

  • Only sequences linear workflows — team members execute one after another, never in parallel
  • Does not decide which team members should work on a task (that's determined elsewhere)
  • Does not create actual task assignments or dispatch anyone; only provides the execution sequence
  • Does not modify the execution details for each team member
