Core Mandates
- Don't Block: Use
jb runfor tasks expected to take several minutes or more (dev servers, full builds, exhaustive test suites). When in doubt, run directly. - Monitor: Use
jb logs --followorjb waitto track progress without losing context. - Cleanup: Stale jobs should be cleaned with
jb cleanto keep the workspace responsive.
Technical Standards
1. Job Invocation
| Task | Command | Strategy |
| :---------------- | :------------------------ | :---------------------------------------- |
| Start Job | jb run "command" | Run in background immediately. |
| Named Job | jb run -n "build" "..." | Use names for easier tracking. |
| Wait & Finish | jb wait <id> | Block only when necessary for next steps. |
| Check Logs | jb logs <id> --tail 50 | Verify output without full context dump. |
2. Operational Flow
- Avoid parallel contention: Do not run multiple jobs that mutate the same files (e.g., two
uv synccalls). - Idempotency: Use
-k <key>for jobs that should not overlap (e.g., continuous build watchers). - Timeout management: Use
-t <duration>for exploratory tasks that might hang.
3. Management
jb ls: Regularly check for orphaned or failed jobs.jb status: Detailed state of the job engine.jb retry <id>: Quick recovery for transient failures.
Anti-Rationalization
| Excuse | Reality |
| :----------------- | :---------------------------------------------------------- |
| "It'll be fast" | It rarely is. Don't block your context on IO or compute. |
| "I'll just wait" | While waiting, you're costing tokens and time. Use jb. |
| "I'll check later" | Without jb, checking later means guessing if it finished. |
