Worker prerequisites
Prepare here. Execute on your worker.
The planner, manifest download and report viewer work in your browser. They do not install or start a worker.
Check an existing worker
Use a Linux, macOS or WSL worker you control. The command template expects its Python environment at
.venv/bin/pythonand queue runner attools/overnight_queue.py. Verify those files and their installation instructions first..venv/bin/python tools/overnight_queue.py --helpIf that command is unavailable, stop at manifest preparation. Do not download or run a substitute without reviewing its source and permissions.
Check your model access
Use the provider configuration supported by your installed worker. Choose an endpoint you can reach, such as your own network service or Ollama Cloud. A local model download is optional.
Keep keys on the worker, outside task files and this website. Check the provider’s spending controls before a model call.
Write one short task
State the objective, permitted inputs and changes, destination files, and checks for success. Include only work whose prerequisite results are already approved.
A useful task file includes- Objective and expected output
- Allowed files and effects
- Time and provider limits
- Checks that determine acceptance
Prepare and inspect the queue
Enter the absolute task-file path in the run desk. Download the manifest, save it in your checkout, and inspect the generated command before running it.
Open the run desk →Review the result before leaving more work
Check the worker’s status and output files: the output files confirm whether the task succeeded. Preserve the original run folder for interrupted or uncertain work.
