Run an AI Employee

This starts an existing AI employee working. The work runs in the cloud and takes minutes, so this skill is fire-and-handle: start it, hand the human the task ID, and let them check back. You do NOT sit in a polling loop.

Prerequisite: load operate-ai-employees first. It sets up the dozaldevs CLI and the key. You also need the employee's slug (its stable identifier, distinct from role_name, which is only the display name). If you don't know the slug, find the employee first (manage-ai-employees). A key needs Member level or above to run one.

Exact bodies and answers: dozaldevs run-dozal --help and ../operate-ai-employees/references/customer-api.md.

Trigger

An employee with no inputs needs no data; an empty body is sent for you:

dozaldevs run-dozal "$SLUG"

When it takes inputs, pass them by key, with shell variables in place of the values:
