Automated task selection prioritizes features marked as "in_progress" to handle retries, then selects the first "pending" feature from your JSON list. This manages iterative development workflows by ensuring continuous task progression without manual sorting.

Retry handling works by prioritizing features with an "in_progress" status over "pending" features. When a coding task is interrupted, the selection logic automatically retrieves the incomplete item first to resume work before starting anything new.

Yes, you can use workflow automation to manage feature selection for autonomous coding agents. The skill evaluates a JSON task list to determine what to code next, ensuring the agent either retries a failed task or moves to the next pending item autonomously.

When all features in the development list are completed or blocked, the task selection process identifies this state and stops retrieving new items. This completion detection ensures the automated workflow halts when there are no actionable tasks left.

Yes, you need to provide a JSON list of features to automate task progression. The prioritization logic parses this structured input to check the status of each item and select the next feature for implementation based on predefined rules.
