hzl-core

Core library for HZL - task tracking for coding agents and multi-agent workflows.

This package provides the business logic for programmatic use. For the CLI, install hzl-cli instead.

Installation

npm install hzl-core

Usage

import {
  createConnection,
  runMigrations,
  EventStore,
  ProjectionEngine,
  TaskService,
  ProjectService,
} from 'hzl-core';

// Initialize database
const db = createConnection('/path/to/data.db');
runMigrations(db);

// Set up event sourcing
const eventStore = new EventStore(db);
const projectionEngine = new ProjectionEngine(db, eventStore);

// Create services
const taskService = new TaskService(db, eventStore, projectionEngine);
const projectService = new ProjectService(db, eventStore, projectionEngine);

// Create a project and task
projectService.createProject({ name: 'my-project' });
const task = taskService.createTask({
  title: 'Implement feature',
  project: 'my-project',
});

// Claim and complete
taskService.claimTask(task.id, { owner: 'agent-1' });
taskService.completeTask(task.id);

Key Concepts

Event Sourcing: All state changes are recorded as immutable events. The EventStore handles persistence, and projections derive current state.

Atomic Claiming: claimTask() and claimNext() use database transactions to prevent race conditions when multiple agents claim work concurrently.

Projections: Current state is rebuilt from events. The ProjectionEngine coordinates projectors that maintain specific views (tasks, dependencies, tags, etc.).

Exports

• Database: createConnection, runMigrations, withWriteTransaction
• Events: EventStore, EventType, TaskStatus
• Projections: ProjectionEngine, individual projectors
• Services: TaskService, ProjectService, SearchService, ValidationService, BackupService
