detect-task SKILL.md skillA
detect-task from restarter/lets-workflow is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add restarter/lets-workflow/detect-task@git:20260927.8aefeffPins git:20260927.8aefeff in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Internal skill for commands. Detect the active task (any tracker adapter) from the task-state file / git branch name. Do not trigger on user conversation - only when commands need task detection.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Detect Active Task
Parse the task-state file / current git branch to find the active task ID (tracker-adapter-aware). Used by commands that need to know which task is in progress.
> **IMPORTANT:** If the spec below invokes any deferred tool (e.g. `AskUserQuestion`), you MUST load and call it as specified. Never skip the call, never substitute a default answer of your own — the tool invocation is part of the contract. This is critical.
## Why This Exists
10+ commands need to detect the active task from branch name. This skill centralizes the logic so branch format changes are updated in one place.
## Detection Flow
### Step 1: Parse Branch Name
Go reads the branch against the active tracker's convention (the adapter's `## Worktree` `id:` / `branch:` / `worktree-branch:`, overridable per key by the user's board file) - markdown never matches an id regex by eye:
```bash
lets worktree info --json --task-candidate --plugin-root "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}"
```

How to install
mdr add restarter/lets-workflow/detect-task@sha256:f7d6de4f0126fee3The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260927.8aefeff, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
