factory-backlog-next-task

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates guesswork when determining the next executable task in a project's backlog sequence, removing the need to manually cross-reference execution plans, dependency status, and linked issue tracking data to know exactly what to run next.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Fast Cache Lookup: Returns the next task instantly if the execution plan hasn't changed since last sync, skipping redundant parsing.
• Authoritative Plan Parsing: Reads the project's official execution plan to find the first pending unchecked task and validates dependencies to flag blockers.
• Issue Context Enrichment: Fetches full details from linked project tracking issues (GitHub, Jira, Linear, etc.) to pull acceptance criteria, definition of done, and the authoritative "Comando Factory" command, surfacing any mismatches with the execution plan.
• Use Case: A development team using a governed SDLC can use this Skill after completing a feature to immediately get the exact agent, command, and context for the next task, without manual coordination.

Quick Start

Ask the factory-backlog-next-task skill to identify the next executable backlog step for your current project, including the required agent, command, and any linked issue context.
