Website-Edit Task Execution: project-management ticket → live verified change
A website ticket goes in; a verified live change and proof come back.
What was getting in the way.
Small website edits ("update the fee list," "add holiday hours," "fix that heading") queued behind developer availability for days. Each one carried the same overhead: find the right hosting install, dig the actual brief out of linked docs, make the change without breaking a page-builder layout, and prove it's live, so tickets aged and clients chased.
Context
Active client sites across trades and services (e.g., a pet-care academy, a remodeling contractor).
How the work runs.
- 01
Trigger
a website-edit task is assigned in the project-management tool.
- 02
Agent locates the client's hosting
Agent locates the client's hosting install and verifies command-line access to the site.
- 03
Recovers the full brief
Recovers the full brief, including hyperlinked edit docs and reference screenshots that the task view strips.
- 04
Implements the change safely
page-builder data is backed up before every edit; risky changes go to a staging copy first.
- 05
Purges all cache layers, then
Purges all cache layers, then verifies on the bare live URL (never a cache-busted one) with before/after screenshots, reviewed by eye before claiming done.
- 06
Posts a completion comment on
Posts a completion comment on the ticket (what changed, root cause, backups taken, verification) and a summary with proof screenshots in the client's channel.

Why this is Coworker.
Takes assignments and reports back. You hand it work, it prepares and returns a result.
- 01
Production edits are targeted and backed up first; risky changes rehearse on staging. Task status changes stay with the human assignee.
Impact / Outcomes
Edit tickets clear in the same working session instead of waiting for a developer window.
Every change ships with a backup, live verification on the real URL, and before/after proof: "it's done" always has evidence attached.
Handles genuinely gnarly cases (page-builder JSON surgery, popup templates, form validation rules) that previously always escalated to a developer.
