# SUB-004 — Errands AFK queue

Story

When Ishai steps away from the keyboard (meetings, lunch, car, breaks), Claude should be able to keep working on pre-baked jobs. Solution: a list of self-contained prompts in vault/00-Errands.md, each with an ID, estimate, prereqs, status. Studio renders them at /errands with a copy button per card. User copies a prompt before stepping away, pastes into chat, walks away, comes back to a result.

Different from Active Board (your work) and Subjects (conversation threads). Errands are my work, queued by you.

Decisions made

2026-05-06. Storage = single markdown file vault/00-Errands.md with ## ERR-NNN · </code> sections. Mirrors AB-NNN / SUB-NNN / M1-M5 ID pattern.</li> <li><strong>2026-05-06.</strong> Each entry needs: estimate (light/medium/heavy), requires (any context), status (ready/running/done/stale), prompt (fenced code block, self-contained text).</li> <li><strong>2026-05-06.</strong> Prompt must be self-contained — no conversation-history dependency. Anyone running it cold should understand.</li> <li><strong>2026-05-06.</strong> Studio <code>/errands</code> page surfaces ready queue with copy buttons. Topbar count + home dashboard tile.</li> <li><strong>2026-05-06.</strong> Name = "Errands" (not AFK Queue, Standby, Off-keyboard). Editorial vibe matches Studio aesthetic.</li> </ul><h2>Open threads</h2> <ul><li class="todo"><input type="checkbox" disabled /> Decide whether failed errands archive automatically or stay as <code>running</code> forever (status drift risk)</li> <li class="todo"><input type="checkbox" disabled /> Decide if errands should auto-mark as <code>done</code> when I report completion in chat, or stay manual</li> <li class="todo"><input type="checkbox" disabled /> Should errands have priority labels too (must/should/could) or is "ready" the only meaningful state?</li> <li class="todo"><input type="checkbox" disabled /> Recurring errands (weekly DS sync, daily ingest) — separate concept or same file with <code>recurring: weekly</code> field?</li> </ul><h2>Raw refs</h2> <ul><li><code>vault/00-Errands.md</code> — 5 seeded errands (ERR-001..005)</li> <li><code>sites/studio/src/pages/errands.astro</code> — gallery page</li> <li>chat: "every time I'm off keyboard you can be doing something that I need you to do"</li> </ul><h2>Last activity</h2> <p>2026-05-06 15:40 — Page shipped, 5 errands seeded.
