⚠️ STRICT WORKFLOW - NO IMPROVISATION

**You MUST follow this exact sequence. Do NOT skip or reorder steps.**

next → implement → check → done

---

STEP 0: INVOKE SKILL (MANDATORY)

**BEFORE doing anything else, you MUST invoke the `feature-next` skill:**

Skill({ skill: "feature-next" })

The instructions below are a fallback only if the skill fails to load.

---

FALLBACK: EXECUTE NOW

agent-foreman next

Wait for completion. Review the task shown.

**Check for TDD Mode**: Look for "!!! TDD ENFORCEMENT ACTIVE !!!" in output.
