# Triage coding task handoffs and error blast radius

Turn test output into a prioritized summary and follow-up plan

[](/text/usecases/triage-coding-task-handoffs-and-error-blast/index.md)

- When something happensTask handoff received
- ThenReview tests and error blast radius
- ResultSummary and prioritized follow-up

An AI bot can coordinate a handoff between a planning chat and a coding tool: ingest the brief, review reported tests and measurements, group errors by blast radius, and return a short digest with open questions. It keeps parallel work legible so the user can decide where to dig deeper.

## Prompt to start with

BotBentoRecommended

```
When a coding task handoff arrives, read the brief and the reported test and measurement output. Classify each error by blast radius, rank findings by impact and uncertainty, and list what needs a deep dive. Draft a concise summary with open questions and next actions. Do not send messages, post updates, make payments, or delete files without the user's explicit approval.
