Collaboration

An agent should use Epismo in the lightest mode that preserves useful continuity:

1. Guidance only: search and read a Playbook, then execute locally without a Case.
2. Durable outcome: start a Case and append the result, decision, or evidence as Records.
3. Coordination: create or assign Tasks when responsibility, review, or handoff must be explicit.

To resume work, read the Case, list its Tasks, then list Records in ascending order for the narrative or descending order for recent activity. Do not ask the previous agent to reproduce its hidden reasoning. Continue from the shared inputs, evidence, decisions, outputs, unresolved questions, and next actions.

A safe handoff sequence is:

read current User and available Users
→ read Case + latest lock version
→ add the new User to the Case ACL when needed
→ append a handoff Record
→ create or assign the specific Task
→ assign the Case only if whole-matter ownership changes

For human review, append the proposed artifact or result first, then create a review Task with that Record as subjectRecordId. The reviewer can append findings and close the Task with an outcome. Close the Case as completed only after every Task is closed.

If a real Case reveals a reusable flaw, create a Suggestion against the Version the Case actually used. Keep the Case-specific observation in Records and the proposed general change in the Suggestion.
