With the rapid development of digital intelligence, drones can provide many conveniences for people’s lives, especially in executing rescue missions in special areas. When executing rescue missions in remote areas, communication cannot be fully covered. Therefore, to improve the online adaptability of the task chain link in task planning with a complex system structure as the background, a distributed source-task-capability allocation (DSTCA) problem was constructed. The first task chain coordination mechanism scheme was proposed, and a DSTCA architecture based on the task chain coordination mechanism was constructed to achieve the online adaptability of the swarm. At the same time, the existing algorithms cannot achieve this idea, and the DSTCA-CBBA algorithm based on CNP is proposed. The efficiency change, agent score, and time three indicators are evaluated through specific cases. In response to sudden changes in nodes in the task chain link, the maximum spanning tree algorithm is used to reconstruct the task chain link in a short time, thereby completing the mission task assigned to the drone entity. Meanwhile, the experimental results also prove the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
