About next
Next is a skill that prints the governing route and the next obvious task for a subsequent agent. Beforehand, it checks that project notes and phase status are current and that commit state is recorded.
Key features
- 01Print the governing route
- 02Identify the next task
- 03Name artefacts to review
- 04Surface unresolved assumptions
- 05Check durable project state
Use cases
- 01Hand off work to another agent
- 02Identify the next implementation task
- 03Record project state before handoff

From the project READMENext
Print:
/route
(path to the governing slice and the next obvious task)
If the next task is implementation-bound, include the specific artefacts to read
(design.md, plan.toml, the active runtime phase sheet) and name any unresolved
assumptions or design questions the next agent must assess before declaring
readiness.
Before printing, confirm the durable state is actually in order — notes current, phase status accurate, work committed or its uncommitted state noted — so the next agent inherits truth, not a stale story.
