What problem does it solve?
Discover the next available issue to work on by querying GitHub Issues, respecting team authorization, priority ordering, and assignment rules from AGENTS.md. Use this skill when you need to discover what to work on next.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Query Open Issues: Use MCP list_issues to fetch open issues for the repository with state open and label "ready"; if domain is provided, apply domain label filter; fallback to gh CLI if MCP is unavailable.
- Filter Issues: Exclude issues with in-progress or blocked labels and filter by assignee idle time; check for agent-eligible label; issues without this label are available for humans but noted.
- Sort by Priority: Rank by who created or assigned by admin/maintain, plus priority labels p0/p1/p2/p3 and oldest creation date as tiebreaker.
- Format Results: Return up to max_results with number, title, priority, domain labels, agent eligibility, current assignee, age, and recommended worktree steps.
