Report babysitter orchestration run status to Accomplish AI desktop app via file-based IPC
command
/accomplish-status
# accomplish-status Report babysitter run status to the [Accomplish AI](https://github.com/accomplish-ai/accomplish) desktop app via file-based IPC. ## Overview This skill writes run status JSON to a well-known directory. External consumers (such as a future Accomplish daemon integration or other tooling) can watch this directory for changes to track orchestration progress, pending breakpoints, and completion state. ## Status File Location Status files are written to: ``` <OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR>/run-status/<runId>.json ``` Where `OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR` is resolved from the `OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR` environment variable (typically `~/.config/opencode` or platform equivalent). ## Dependencies ### Babysitter SDK and CLI Read the SDK version from `versions.json` to ensure version compatibility: ```bash SDK_VERSION=$(node -e "try{const fs=require('fs');const probes=['./plugins/babysitter-unified/versions.json','./node_modules/@a5c-ai/babysitter-opencode/versions.json'];for(const probe of probes){if(fs.existsSync(probe)){console.log(JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync(probe,'utf8')).sdkVersion||'latest');process.exit(0)}}console.log('latest')}catch{console.log('latest')}") npm i -g @a5c-ai/babysitter-sdk@$SDK_VERSION if command -v babysitter >/dev/null 2>&1 && babysitter --version >/dev/null 2>&1; then CLI="babysitter" else CLI="npm exec --yes --package @a5c-ai/babysitter-sdk@$SDK_VERSION -- babysitter" fi ``` If a stale or broken global shim fails with `MODULE_NOT_FOUND`, repair it with `npm rm -g @a5c-ai/babysitter @a5c-ai/babysitter-sdk && npm i -g @a5c-ai/babysitter-sdk@$SDK_VERSION`, then re-run `babysitter --version`. ## Instructions ### 1. Resolve the status directory ```bash STATUS_DIR="${OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR:-$HOME/.config/opencode}/run-status" mkdir -p "$STATUS_DIR" ``` ### 2. Get run status from babysitter ```bash babysitter run:status .a5c/runs/<runId> --json ``` ### 3. Write the status file Transform the run status output into the Accomplish status format and write it to `$STATUS_DIR/<runId>.json`. Use the `ACCOMPLISH_TASK_ID` environment variable to correlate the babysitter run with the originating Accomplish task. This variable is set automatically by Accomplish when it spawns the agent session. ```bash ACCOMPLISH_TASK_ID="${ACCOMPLISH_TASK_ID:-}" ``` ### 4. Status file format Write the following JSON structure to `$STATUS_DIR/<runId>.json`: ```json { "runId": "abc123-def456", "processId": "my-process", "status": "running", "currentPhase": "execute", "phases": [ { "name": "plan", "status": "completed" }, { "name": "execute", "status": "running" }, { "name": "verify", "status": "pending" } ], "pendingEffects": [ { "effectId": "eff-001", "kind": "breakpoint", "title": "Approve implementation plan" } ], "accomplishTaskId": "accomplish-task-789", "lastUpdatedAt": "2026-04-04T12:00:00.000Z" } ``` #### Field reference | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `runId` | string | Babysitter run identifier | | `processId` | string | Process definition identifier | | `status` | enum | One of: `created`, `running`, `waiting`, `completed`, `failed` | | `currentPhase` | string | Name of the currently active phase | | `phases` | array | Ordered list of phases with individual status (`pending`, `running`, `completed`, `failed`) | | `pendingEffects` | array | Currently pending effects (tasks, breakpoints, sleeps) awaiting resolution | | `accomplishTaskId` | string | Correlation ID from `ACCOMPLISH_TASK_ID` env var; links this run to the Accomplish UI task | | `lastUpdatedAt` | string | ISO 8601 timestamp of the last status update | ### 5. When to update Write or update the status file: - Immediately after `babysitter run:create` (status: `created`) - After each `babysitter run:iterate` call (status: `running` or `waiting`) - When breakpoints are requested (status: `waiting`, include breakpoint in `pendingEffects`) - After `babysitter task:post` resolves an effect (status: `running`) - On run completion (status: `completed`) - On run failure (status: `failed`) ### 6. Cleanup When a run reaches a terminal state (`completed` or `failed`), the status file may be left in place for external consumers to read the final state. Stale status files can be cleaned up manually or by external tooling.
