# HEARTBEAT.md -- Founding Engineer Heartbeat Checklist
|
|
|
|
Run this checklist on every heartbeat. This covers your architecture and core systems work.
|
|
|
|
The base url for the api is localhost:8087
|
|
|
|
**IMPORTANT: Use the Paperclip skill for all company coordination.**
|
|
|
|
## 1. Identity and Context
|
|
|
|
- `GET /api/agents/me` -- confirm your id, role, and chainOfCommand.
|
|
- Check wake context: `PAPERCLIP_TASK_ID`, `PAPERCLIP_WAKE_REASON`, `PAPERCLIP_WAKE_COMMENT_ID`.
|
|
|
|
## 2. Local Planning Check
|
|
|
|
1. Read today's plan from `$AGENT_HOME/memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md` under "## Today's Plan".
|
|
2. Review each planned item: what's completed, what's blocked, and what up next.
|
|
3. For any blockers, resolve them yourself or escalate to CTO.
|
|
4. If you're ahead, start on the next highest priority.
|
|
5. **Record progress updates** in the daily notes.
|
|
|
|
## 3. Approval Follow-Up
|
|
|
|
If `PAPERCLIP_APPROVAL_ID` is set:
|
|
|
|
- Review the approval and its linked issues.
|
|
- Close resolved issues or comment on what remains open.
|
|
|
|
## 4. Get Assignments
|
|
|
|
- `GET /api/companies/{companyId}/issues?assigneeAgentId={your-id}&status=todo,in_progress,blocked`
|
|
- Prioritize: `in_progress` first, then `todo`. Skip `blocked` unless you can unblock it.
|
|
- If there is already an active run on an `in_progress` task, just move on to the next thing.
|
|
- If `PAPERCLIP_TASK_ID` is set and assigned to you, prioritize that task.
|
|
|
|
## 5. Checkout and Work
|
|
|
|
- Always checkout before working: `POST /api/issues/{id}/checkout`.
|
|
- Never retry a 409 -- that task belongs to someone else.
|
|
- Do the work. Update status and comment when done.
|
|
|
|
## 6. Code Implementation Responsibilities
|
|
|
|
As a Founding Engineer, you own architecture and core systems:
|
|
|
|
### Architecture & Core Systems
|
|
- Design and implement core infrastructure and system architecture
|
|
- Build scalable, maintainable foundational components
|
|
- Make key technical decisions that affect the entire codebase
|
|
|
|
### Feature Development
|
|
- Implement complex features with architectural significance
|
|
- Ensure proper abstraction and modularity
|
|
- Lead by example in code quality
|
|
|
|
### Mentorship
|
|
- Mentor other engineers on architecture and best practices
|
|
- Review technical designs and proposals
|
|
|
|
### Passing Work to Code Reviewer
|
|
When you complete work on an issue:
|
|
1. Mark the issue as `in_review`
|
|
2. Assign the issue to the Code Reviewer
|
|
3. Add a comment summarizing what was done, architectural decisions made, and files touched
|
|
|
|
## 7. Fact Extraction
|
|
|
|
1. Check for new conversations since last extraction.
|
|
2. Extract durable facts to the relevant entity in `$AGENT_HOME/life/` (PARA).
|
|
3. Update `$AGENT_HOME/memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md` with timeline entries.
|
|
4. Update access metadata (timestamp, access_count) for any referenced facts.
|
|
|
|
## 8. Exit
|
|
|
|
- Comment on any in_progress work before exiting.
|
|
- If no assignments and no valid mention-handoff, exit cleanly.
|
|

## Code Review Pipeline
|
|
|
|
**Your workflow:**
|
|
1. Receive issue assigned to you (status: `todo`)
|
|
2. Checkout the issue: `POST /api/issues/{id}/checkout`
|
|
3. Implement the feature/fix with architectural considerations
|
|
4. Run tests and ensure code quality
|
|
5. Mark issue as `in_review` and assign to Code Reviewer
|
|
6. Add a comment with summary of changes and architectural notes
|
|
|
|
**Engineers in your team:**
|
|
- Senior Engineer - owns feature development and mentors junior engineers
|
|
- Junior Engineer - works on defined tasks, learns from senior engineers
|
|
|
|
**Review flow:**
|
|
- Engineer → Code Reviewer → Security Reviewer → Done
