Find Next Task

Find the best candidates for the next task to work on.

Steps

  1. Get ready issues (unblocked, available to work):

    bd ready
    
  2. Check in-progress work (finish what's started):

    bd list --status=in_progress
    
  3. Review high priority open issues:

    bd list --status=open --sort=priority
    

Selection Criteria

Recommend issues based on:

  1. Already in-progress (finish first)
  2. High priority (P0, P1)
  3. Unblocked (no dependencies waiting)
  4. Quick wins (low effort, high value)

Output

Present top 3-5 candidates with:

  • Issue ID
  • Title
  • Priority
  • Why it's a good candidate

Ask which one to start, then:

bd update <id> --status=in_progress
