SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Continue active MPI work intelligently by reading the current task card, the active plan, and the coordination state to determine the next best action. It replaces rigid "execute next" behavior with context-aware progression and bounded, safe card updates.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Read-only board entry mode to inspect a card or task without changing state.
  • Direct card update mode to move or update task state with safety checks and in-bound transitions.
  • Handoff-aware continuation using the shared coordination state to synchronize work across agents.
  • Plan-aware actions by deriving concrete next steps from the active MPI plan.

Quick Start

Tell me to continue the MPI plan and I will read the current card and plan, then propose the next action.

Frequently Asked Questions about mpi-continue

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I continue active work on a kanban task card using a derived plan?

To continue work, you read the current task card, active plan, and coordination state to determine the next best action. The system proposes concrete next steps and updates task state only after user approval.

How does handoff-aware task coordination work across multiple agents?

Handoff-aware task coordination uses a shared coordination state to synchronize work across agents. It reads this state alongside the active plan to intelligently progress tasks and ensure safe, context-aware transitions.

Can I inspect a JSON task card without changing its current state?

Yes, you can inspect a specific JSON task card without changing its state using a read-only board entry mode. This allows you to surface the current card state and review details before proposing any updates.

What's the best way to safely update task states on a kanban board?

The best way to safely update task states is using direct card update mode with safety checks and in-bound transitions. It ensures state mutations are bounded, context-aware, and only execute after user approval.

Do I need plan derivations to determine the next action for a task?

Yes, you need plan derivations to determine the next action. The system derives concrete next steps from the active MPI plan, requiring access to board files, plan derivations, and coordination references to function correctly.
