Command definition
ready.mddescription: Find ready-to-work tasks with no blockers
Use the beads MCP server to find tasks that are ready to work on (no blocking dependencies).
Call the `ready` tool to get a list of unblocked issues. Then present them to the user in a clear format showing:
- Issue ID
- Title
- Priority
- Issue type
If there are ready tasks, ask the user which one they'd like to work on. If they choose one, use the `claim` tool to start work atomically.
If there are no ready tasks, suggest checking `blocked` issues or creating a new issue with the `create` tool.
