This skill streamlines selecting the next bead to work on by considering task readiness, priorities, and user preferences to quick-start focused work.
Ask the agent to pick the next bead based on readiness and user preferences.

To pick the next task, the skill evaluates ready beads by readiness, priority, type, and age. It surfaces top candidates for interactive selection and automatically marks the chosen task as in_progress.
Prioritizing unblocked tasks relies on a deterministic flow that ranks ready beads by user-defined ordering, type weighting, and age. This ensures you always surface the most suitable work candidate.
Task readiness filters out blocked items so you only see unblocked beads. The selection mechanism then applies priority and age constraints to identify and reveal the details of the next best task.
Yes, task age and type weighting directly influence candidate ranking. The system uses these parameters alongside priority data to order tasks, prompt for your choice, and start the workflow.
Once you select a task from the presented candidates, an auto-start flow deterministically marks that bead as in_progress. This immediately transitions its status and reveals full details for focused work.
