About advance
The 'advance' skill is designed to streamline the bead lifecycle process by managing tasks from discovery to closure. This skill automates the workflow to ensure tasks are claimed, worked on, and completed in a systematic, efficient manner. It addresses the need for safe task management by simplifying coordination, helping users to transition smoothly between tasks without errors or delays. By automating this lifecycle, it reduces the burden of manual task tracking and enhances operational efficiency.
FAQ
How do I initiate the 'advance' skill?
You can trigger the 'advance' skill by using the command '/advance' to run the full protocol, or by saying 'next task' or 'what's next' to start the discovery and claiming process.
What should I do after finishing a task?
After completing a task, you should close out the task, then initiate the discovery process to find the next task.
Are there any specific requirements before closing a task?
Before closing a task, you must run verification gates (like pytest and security scans with ubs) and ensure all changes are committed.
Can I directly jump to the next task without closing previous work?
No, the skill is designed to close out any previous work first before moving on to discovering new tasks. This ensures proper task closure and accountability.
Is there any limitation on task discovery?
The task discovery process is limited by the availability of work and the state of active tasks. You can view recommendations, available tasks, and check for blocked or in-progress tasks before proceeding.
