Use when reviewing backlog tasks to assess decomposition, implementation readiness, and priority ordering before development begins.
Use when managing tasks with the agkan CLI tool - creating, listing, updating tasks, managing tags, blocking relationships, or tracking project progress with the kanban board.
Use when starting a development session to pick the highest priority Todo task from agkan, implement it directly without PR/branch, and mark it done.
Use when starting a development session to pick the highest priority Todo task from agkan, implement it, create a pull request, and mark it done.
Use when a task has been selected and you need to implement it directly without PR/branch creation - handles in_progress update, implementation, and marking done.
Use when a task has been selected and you need to implement it in an isolated (forked) context - handles in_progress update, branch creation, implementation, PR creation, and marking review.
Use when checking review tasks against GitHub PR status to automatically move them to done or closed.

A planning workflow that uses agkan to review backlog tasks and make decisions about decomposition, moving to Ready status, and deferring tasks.

agkan task list --status backlog --json
For each task, use the Task tool (general-purpose sub-agent) to review.
Do not use Skill("agkan-planning-subtask"). Instead, instruct the sub-agent to read the SKILL.md file directly.
Why SKILL.md path instead of
Skill()? Sub-agents spawned via the Task tool start with a fresh context.Skill()loads skill content into the current conversation, but a sub-agent needs its instructions embedded in its prompt. Providing the SKILL.md path directly in the prompt is the reliable way to pass workflow instructions to a sub-agent.

Please review the following backlog task.
## Task Information
- ID: <id>
- Title: <title>
- Body: <body>
## Procedure
Read .claude/skills/agkan-planning-subtask/SKILL.md and follow its procedures to review.
## Important Constraint
Your role is ONLY to review the task and update its status in agkan (e.g., move to ready, decompose, or tag for deferral).
Do NOT implement the task. Do NOT edit any source code or codebase files.
## Effort / Thoroughness
Effort level: <PLANNING_EFFORT>
- low: Quick assessment. Focus on obvious gaps or blockers. Minimal research.
- medium: Standard review. Check requirements clarity, decomposition needs, and implementation readiness.
- high: Thorough review. Deep analysis of dependencies, edge cases, and potential risks. Research codebase as needed.

If a task ID is specified by the user, retrieve and review only that target task:
agkan task get <id> --json
Then delegate only that single task to a sub-agent using the same Task call format above.
After the sub-agent completes, re-fetch the backlog task list to pick up any changes (e.g., tasks added by decomposition):
agkan task list --status backlog --json
If there is no instruction to end from the user and backlog tasks remain, select the next task and repeat from step 2.
If no backlog tasks remain, end the session.

Delegate one task to sub-agent
↓
Sub-agent reviews and makes decision
- Content unclear? → Research code → Add to task
- Can be decomposed? → Split into subtasks → Close original task
- Ready to implement now? → Move to Ready
- Otherwise → Add "will-do-later" tag and keep in Backlog
↓
Move to next task (repeat until all are done)
