Comma-separated list of classifications:

$ classify-task.sh "Create a React dashboard with API integration"
frontend,backend,testing

Integration with Agent Selector

This skill is typically used with cfn-agent-selector to determine which agents to spawn:

CLASSIFICATION=$(classify-task.sh "$TASK_DESCRIPTION")
AGENTS=$(select-agents.sh --classification "$CLASSIFICATION" --mode standard)

Examples

# Frontend task
$ classify-task.sh "Build responsive navigation component"
frontend

# Full-stack task
$ classify-task.sh "Create REST API with React admin panel"
frontend,backend

# DevOps task
$ classify-task.sh "Setup CI/CD pipeline with Docker"
devops

# Security audit
$ classify-task.sh "Perform security audit and fix vulnerabilities"
security

Implementation Details

Uses grep -E for case-insensitive pattern matching
Returns multiple classifications if multiple keywords match
Falls back to "general" if no specific keywords detected
Stateless execution (no persistent state)
Exit code 0 on success, 1 on error

Used By

cfn-v3-coordinator - For automatic agent selection
cfn-agent-selector - As input for agent mapping
CFN Loop orchestration - For task-specific agent spawning
