# work-queue-api

Lightweight internal work queue API for TheLab agents.

## Features
- Go HTTP API with chi router
- SQLite storage, auto-migrated on startup
- Projects and work items endpoints from `SPEC.md`
- Dispatch history tracking
- Enforces one `in_progress` item per agent
- No auth, binds to port `8080` by default

## Run locally
```bash
export DATABASE_URL=./work_queue.db
export PORT=8080
~/.local/go/bin/go run ./cmd/work-queue-api
```

## Build
```bash
~/.local/go/bin/go build ./cmd/work-queue-api
```

## Endpoints
- `GET /health`
- `POST/GET/PATCH /projects`
- `POST/GET/PATCH/DELETE /work`

## Notes
- `POST /work` accepts `assigned_agent`, but still creates the item in `queued`
- `PATCH /work/:id` enforces status transitions from the spec
- `DELETE /work/:id` cancels queued or dispatched work items
