Feature: Create a New Mode for Managing Issue-Tasks Workers in Parallel

Motivation

To maximize throughput and efficiency, the system should support a mode that can orchestrate and monitor multiple issue-task workers running in parallel. This is especially important for large-scale automation, CI/CD, or distributed task processing.

Requirements

  • Implement a new mode (e.g., parallel-workers) that can:
    • Launch, monitor, and manage multiple worker processes or containers concurrently.
    • Dynamically scale the number of workers based on queue depth, resource availability, or configuration.
    • Provide real-time status, logs, and error reporting for each worker.
    • Support graceful shutdown, restart, and failure recovery for workers.
    • Integrate with both local Docker and cloud backends (e.g., Azure Container Apps).
  • Expose CLI and/or API controls for starting, stopping, and querying parallel workers.
  • Document usage and configuration options.

Action Items

  • Design the parallel worker orchestration architecture.
  • Implement worker lifecycle management.
  • Add monitoring, logging, and error handling.
  • Integrate with existing task queue and runner logic.
  • Provide documentation and usage examples.

This mode will enable robust, scalable parallel processing for the issue-tasks system.
