+
+## 1. Admin Server Design
+
+### 1.1 Core Responsibilities
+
+- **Task Discovery**: Scan volumes to identify EC and vacuum candidates
+- **Worker Management**: Track available workers and their capabilities  
+- **Task Assignment**: Match tasks to optimal workers
+- **Progress Tracking**: Monitor in-progress tasks for capacity planning
+- **State Reconciliation**: Sync with master server for volume state updates
+
+### 1.2 Task Discovery Engine
+
+```go
+type TaskDiscoveryEngine struct {
+    masterClient   MasterClient
+    volumeScanner  VolumeScanner
+    taskDetectors  map[TaskType]TaskDetector
+    scanInterval   time.Duration
+}
+
+type VolumeCandidate struct {
+    VolumeID       uint32
+    Server         string
+    Collection     string
+    TaskType       TaskType
+    Priority       TaskPriority
+    Reason         string
+    DetectedAt     time.Time
+    Parameters     map[string]interface{}
+}
+```
+
+**EC Detection Logic**:
+- Find volumes >= 95% full and idle for > 1 hour
+- Exclude volumes already in EC format
+- Exclude volumes with ongoing operations
+- Prioritize by collection and age
+
+**Vacuum Detection Logic**:
+- Find volumes with garbage ratio > 30%
+- Exclude read-only volumes
+- Exclude volumes with recent vacuum operations
+- Prioritize by garbage percentage
+
+### 1.3 Worker Registry & Management
+
+```go
+type WorkerRegistry struct {
+    workers        map[string]*Worker
+    capabilities   map[TaskType][]*Worker
+    lastHeartbeat  map[string]time.Time
+    taskAssignment map[string]*Task
+    mutex          sync.RWMutex
+}
+
+type Worker struct {
+    ID            string
+    Address       string
+    Capabilities  []TaskType
+    MaxConcurrent int
+    CurrentLoad   int
+    Status        WorkerStatus
+    LastSeen      time.Time
+    Performance   WorkerMetrics
+}
+```
+
+### 1.4 Task Assignment Algorithm
+
+```go
+type TaskScheduler struct {
+    registry       *WorkerRegistry
+    taskQueue      *PriorityQueue
+    inProgressTasks map[string]*InProgressTask
+    volumeReservations map[uint32]*VolumeReservation
+}
+
+// Worker Selection Criteria:
+// 1. Has required capability (EC or Vacuum)
+// 2. Available capacity (CurrentLoad < MaxConcurrent)
+// 3. Best performance history for task type
+// 4. Lowest current load
+// 5. Geographically close to volume server (optional)
+```
+
+## 2. Worker Process Design
+
+### 2.1 Worker Architecture
+
+```go
+type MaintenanceWorker struct {
+    id              string
+    config          *WorkerConfig
+    adminClient     AdminClient
+    taskExecutors   map[TaskType]TaskExecutor
+    currentTasks    map[string]*RunningTask
+    registry        *TaskRegistry
+    heartbeatTicker *time.Ticker
+    requestTicker   *time.Ticker
+}
+```
+
+### 2.2 Task Execution Framework
+
+```go
+type TaskExecutor interface {
+    Execute(ctx context.Context, task *Task) error
+    EstimateTime(task *Task) time.Duration
+    ValidateResources(task *Task) error
+    GetProgress() float64
+    Cancel() error
+}
+
+type ErasureCodingExecutor struct {
+    volumeClient VolumeServerClient
+    progress     float64
+    cancelled    bool
+}
+
+type VacuumExecutor struct {
+    volumeClient VolumeServerClient
+    progress     float64
+    cancelled    bool
+}
+```
+
+### 2.3 Worker Capabilities & Registration
+
+```go
+type WorkerCapabilities struct {
+    SupportedTasks   []TaskType
+    MaxConcurrent    int
+    ResourceLimits   ResourceLimits
+    PreferredServers []string  // Affinity for specific volume servers
+}
+
+type ResourceLimits struct {
+    MaxMemoryMB      int64
+    MaxDiskSpaceMB   int64
+    MaxNetworkMbps   int64
+    MaxCPUPercent    float64
+}
+```
+
+## 3. Task Lifecycle Management
+
+### 3.1 Task States
+
+```go
+type TaskState string
+
+const (
+    TaskStatePending     TaskState = "pending"
+    TaskStateAssigned    TaskState = "assigned"
+    TaskStateInProgress  TaskState = "in_progress"
+    TaskStateCompleted   TaskState = "completed"
+    TaskStateFailed      TaskState = "failed"
+    TaskStateCancelled   TaskState = "cancelled"
+    TaskStateStuck       TaskState = "stuck"       // Taking too long
+    TaskStateDuplicate   TaskState = "duplicate"   // Detected duplicate
+)
+```
+
+### 3.2 Progress Tracking & Monitoring
+
+```go
+type InProgressTask struct {
+    Task           *Task
+    WorkerID       string
+    StartedAt      time.Time
+    LastUpdate     time.Time
+    Progress       float64
+    EstimatedEnd   time.Time
+    VolumeReserved bool  // Reserved for capacity planning
+}
+
+type TaskMonitor struct {
+    inProgressTasks map[string]*InProgressTask
+    timeoutChecker  *time.Ticker
+    stuckDetector   *time.Ticker
+    duplicateChecker *time.Ticker
+}
+```
+
+## 4. Volume Capacity Reconciliation
+
+### 4.1 Volume State Tracking
+
+```go
+type VolumeStateManager struct {
+    masterClient      MasterClient
+    inProgressTasks   map[uint32]*InProgressTask  // VolumeID -> Task
+    committedChanges  map[uint32]*VolumeChange    // Changes not yet in master
+    reconcileInterval time.Duration
+}
+
+type VolumeChange struct {
+    VolumeID     uint32
+    ChangeType   ChangeType  // "ec_encoding", "vacuum_completed"
+    OldCapacity  int64
+    NewCapacity  int64
+    TaskID       string
+    CompletedAt  time.Time
+    ReportedToMaster bool
+}
+```
+
+### 4.2 Shard Assignment Integration
+
+When the master needs to assign shards, it must consider:
+1. **Current volume state** from its own records
+2. **In-progress capacity changes** from admin server
+3. **Committed but unreported changes** from admin server
+
+```go
+type CapacityOracle struct {
+    adminServer   AdminServerClient
+    masterState   *MasterVolumeState
+    updateFreq    time.Duration
+}
+
+func (o *CapacityOracle) GetAdjustedCapacity(volumeID uint32) int64 {
+    baseCapacity := o.masterState.GetCapacity(volumeID)
+    
+    // Adjust for in-progress tasks
+    if task := o.adminServer.GetInProgressTask(volumeID); task != nil {
+        switch task.Type {
+        case TaskTypeErasureCoding:
+            // EC reduces effective capacity
+            return baseCapacity / 2  // Simplified
+        case TaskTypeVacuum:
+            // Vacuum may increase available space
+            return baseCapacity + int64(float64(baseCapacity) * 0.3)
+        }
+    }
+    
+    // Adjust for completed but unreported changes
+    if change := o.adminServer.GetPendingChange(volumeID); change != nil {
+        return change.NewCapacity
+    }
+    
+    return baseCapacity
+}
+```
+
+## 5. Error Handling & Recovery
+
+### 5.1 Worker Failure Scenarios
+
+```go
+type FailureHandler struct {
+    taskRescheduler *TaskRescheduler
+    workerMonitor   *WorkerMonitor
+    alertManager    *AlertManager
+}
+
+// Failure Scenarios:
+// 1. Worker becomes unresponsive (heartbeat timeout)
+// 2. Task execution fails (reported by worker)
+// 3. Task gets stuck (progress timeout)
+// 4. Duplicate task detection
+// 5. Resource exhaustion
+```
+
+### 5.2 Recovery Strategies
+
+**Worker Timeout Recovery**:
+- Mark worker as inactive after 3 missed heartbeats
+- Reschedule all assigned tasks to other workers
+- Cleanup any partial state
+
+**Task Stuck Recovery**:
+- Detect tasks with no progress for > 2x estimated time
+- Cancel stuck task and mark volume for cleanup
+- Reschedule if retry count < max_retries
+
+**Duplicate Task Prevention**:
+```go
+type DuplicateDetector struct {
+    activeFingerprints map[string]bool  // VolumeID+TaskType
+    recentCompleted    *LRUCache        // Recently completed tasks
+}
+
+func (d *DuplicateDetector) IsTaskDuplicate(task *Task) bool {
+    fingerprint := fmt.Sprintf("%d-%s", task.VolumeID, task.Type)
+    return d.activeFingerprints[fingerprint] || 
+           d.recentCompleted.Contains(fingerprint)
+}
+```
+
+## 6. Simulation & Testing Framework
+
+### 6.1 Failure Simulation
+
+```go
+type TaskSimulator struct {
+    scenarios map[string]SimulationScenario
+}
+
+type SimulationScenario struct {
+    Name            string
+    WorkerCount     int
+    VolumeCount     int
+    FailurePatterns []FailurePattern
+    Duration        time.Duration
+}
+
+type FailurePattern struct {
+    Type        FailureType  // "worker_timeout", "task_stuck", "duplicate"
+    Probability float64      // 0.0 to 1.0
+    Timing      TimingSpec   // When during task execution
+    Duration    time.Duration
+}
+```
+
+### 6.2 Test Scenarios
+
+**Scenario 1: Worker Timeout During EC**
+- Start EC task on 30GB volume
+- Kill worker at 50% progress
+- Verify task reassignment
+- Verify no duplicate EC operations
+
+**Scenario 2: Stuck Vacuum Task**
+- Start vacuum on high-garbage volume
+- Simulate worker hanging at 75% progress
+- Verify timeout detection and cleanup
+- Verify volume state consistency
+
+**Scenario 3: Duplicate Task Prevention**
+- Submit same EC task from multiple sources
+- Verify only one task executes
+- Verify proper conflict resolution
+
+**Scenario 4: Master-Admin State Divergence**
+- Create in-progress EC task
+- Simulate master restart
+- Verify state reconciliation
+- Verify shard assignment accounts for in-progress work
+
+## 7. Performance & Scalability
+
+### 7.1 Metrics & Monitoring
+
+```go
+type SystemMetrics struct {
+    TasksPerSecond     float64
+    WorkerUtilization  float64
+    AverageTaskTime    time.Duration
+    FailureRate        float64
+    QueueDepth         int
+    VolumeStatesSync   bool
+}
+```
+
+### 7.2 Scalability Considerations
+
+- **Horizontal Worker Scaling**: Add workers without admin server changes
+- **Admin Server HA**: Master-slave admin servers for fault tolerance
+- **Task Partitioning**: Partition tasks by collection or datacenter
+- **Batch Operations**: Group similar tasks for efficiency
+
+## 8. Implementation Plan
+
+### Phase 1: Core Infrastructure
+1. Admin server basic framework
+2. Worker registration and heartbeat
+3. Simple task assignment
+4. Basic progress tracking
+
+### Phase 2: Advanced Features
+1. Volume state reconciliation
+2. Sophisticated worker selection
+3. Failure detection and recovery
+4. Duplicate prevention
+
+### Phase 3: Optimization & Monitoring
+1. Performance metrics
+2. Load balancing algorithms
+3. Capacity planning integration
+4. Comprehensive monitoring
+
+This design provides a robust, scalable foundation for distributed task management in SeaweedFS while maintaining consistency with the existing architecture patterns.
