Show Ready Tasks

Display tasks that are ready to work on (not blocked, not in progress, not done).

Instructions

1. Use the tk_list MCP tool with status: "ready" filter
2. Sort by priority (critical first, then high, normal, low, backlog)
3. Highlight the top task as the suggested next action
4. Show task ID, description, and priority level

Output Format

## Ready to Work (X tasks)

**Suggested next:** [highest-priority-task-id] - Description

Other ready tasks:
- [task-id] Description (priority)
- [task-id] Description (priority)

Priority Levels

• 0 = critical (urgent)
• 1 = high (important)
• 2 = normal (default)
• 3 = low (when time permits)
• 4 = backlog (future consideration)

Notes

• If no ready tasks exist, check for blocked tasks and explain what's blocking progress
• Suggest using tk task start <id> to begin working on a task
