About this plugin

In multi-agent workflows, a parent agent may call update_goal(action=complete) right after delegating background reviews, only to discover that child agents have not yet finished. Their results then arrive too late to influence the already-closed goal. dsh-goal-quiescence plugs exactly that "settled but unseen" race window.

The plugin enforces a lifecycle gate: it records the start/end pair of every subagent run that begins after it loads, then denies completion until each run has settled and the parent has explicitly called goal_quiescence_ack to pull back the terminal output into its own context. goal_quiescence_status lists whichever runs still block completion. It neither schedules, cancels, nor retries children, and it does not replace Harness goal mode; it simply guards the single "complete" transition.

Ideal for developers who routinely delegate background reviews, code audits, or parallel subtasks under Harness goal mode and have experienced the awkward situation of a goal marked done while a child report is still in flight.

Use Cases

  • Prevent a goal from closing before delegated background reviews return.
  • Block premature completion when parallel subtasks have settled but their output is unreviewed.
  • Ensure every child agent terminal output lands in the parent context before the goal is finalized.

Best For

  • Developers who frequently delegate background subtasks under Harness goal mode.
  • Workflow orchestrators who need auditable, traceable multi-agent pipelines.
  • Engineering teams that have hit the goal closed but child report unread problem.
