/next-task

Intelligently determine and prepare the next action based on comprehensive context.

This enhanced version of 'next' considers:

• Current task states
• Recent activity
• Time constraints
• Dependencies
• Your working patterns

Arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Intelligent Next Action

1. **Context Gathering**

Let me analyze the current situation:

• Active tasks (in-progress)
• Recently completed tasks
• Blocked tasks
• Time since last activity
• Arguments provided: $ARGUMENTS

2. **Smart Decision Tree**

**If you have an in-progress task:**

• Has it been idle > 2 hours? → Suggest resuming or switching
• Near completion? → Show remaining steps
• Blocked? → Find alternative task

**If no in-progress tasks:**

• Unblocked high-priority tasks? → Start highest
• Complex tasks need breakdown? → Suggest expansion
• All tasks blocked? → Show dependency resolution

**Special arguments handling:**

• "quick" → Find task < 2 hours
• "easy" → Find low complexity task
• "important" → Find high priority regardless of complexity
• "continue" → Resume last worked task

3. **Preparation Workflow**

Based on selected task: 1. Show full context and history 2. Set up development environment 3. Run relevant tests 4. Open related files 5. Show similar completed tasks 6. Estimate completion time

4. **Alternative Suggestions**

Always provide options:

• Primary recommendation
• Quick alternative (< 1 hour)
• Strategic option (unblocks most tasks)
• Learning option (new technology/skill)

5. **Workflow Integration**

Seamlessly connect to:

• `/project:task-master:start [selected]`
• `/project:workflows:auto-implement`
• `/project:task-master:expand` (if complex)
• `/project:utils:complexity-report` (if unsure)

The goal: Zero friction from decision to implementation.
