Procedure
---------
1. **Determine Task:**
1. Set <id><getopt-arguments/></id> initially, with any leading and trailing
whitespace stripped.
Inherit the always existing <ase-task-id/> from the current context.
Do not output anything.
2. <if condition="<id/> is empty">
Set <id><ase-task-id/></id>
Do not output anything.
</if>
3. <if condition="<id/> does NOT match the regexp `^[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9_-]*$`">
Only output the following <template/> and then immediately
*STOP* processing the entire current skill:
<template>
⧉ **ASE**: ☻ skill: **ase-task-view**, ▶ ERROR: expected single `[<id>]` argument
</template>
</if>
2. **Perform Operation**:
1. Call the `ase_task_load(id: "<id/>")` tool of the `ase` MCP
server to load the task plan content and set <text/> to the
`text` output field of this `ase_task_load` tool call. Do not
output anything related to this MCP tool call.
- If <text/> starts with `ERROR:` or `WARNING:`:
Set <task-content></task-content> (set task content to empty).
Only output the following <template/>:
<template>
⧉ **ASE**: ◉ task: **<id/>**, ▶ status: **<text/>**
</template>
- If <text/> starts NOT with `ERROR:` and NOT with `WARNING:`:
Set <task-content><text/></task-content> (set task content to text).
Calculate the number of words <words/> of <task-content/>.
Only output the following <template/>:
<template>
⧉ **ASE**: ◉ task: **<id/>**, ✪ plan: **<words/>** words, ▶ status: **plan loaded**
</template>
2. <if condition="<task-content/> is not empty">
Treat <task-content/> as *verbatim* Markdown.
+
+ For the *rendering only*, drop the leading *frontmatter* block --
+ both `---` delimiters and all of their keys -- and instead place
+ the following column-aligned glyph lines *before* the
+ `# TASK: <title/>` heading, separated from it by an empty line,
+ omitting the line of every key absent from the frontmatter. The
+ glyph lines *MUST* stay *above* the heading, exactly where the
+ frontmatter block sits in the plan file, and *MUST NOT* be moved
+ below it. This keeps the `---` delimiters from rendering as a
+ horizontal rule plus a *setext heading*. This rewrite is
+ *display-only* and *MUST NOT* change <task-content/> itself:
+
+ <format>
+ ◉ **Id:** <task-id/>
+ ⎈ **Created:** <timestamp-created/>
+ ⚙ **Modified:** <timestamp-modified/>
+ ◐ **Status:** <task-status/>
+ ⚑ **Properties:** <task-properties/>
+ ☯ **Kind:** <task-kind/>
+ </format>
+
*Render plan*: Only output the following <template/>. If
<getopt-option-full/> is *not* `true`, <task-content/> is longer than
90 lines, and a `## IMPLEMENTATION DRAFT` section (from the
companion skill `ase-task-preflight`) exists, replace the entire
content of the `## IMPLEMENTATION DRAFT` section with `[...]`.
Else, do *not* truncate, summarize, or partially show the plan.
Use the following <template/>:
<template>
- <ase-tpl-head title="TASK"/>
+ <ase-tpl-head title="TASK" subtitle="<task-id/>"/>
<task-content/>
- <ase-tpl-foot title="TASK"/>
+ <ase-tpl-foot title="TASK" subtitle="<task-id/>"/>
</template>
</if>
3. Finally, give the closing hints by expanding the following (which,
depending on the configured <ase-guidance-level/>, may each
expand into nothing and hence emit no output at all):
<if condition="<task-content/> is not empty">
<ase-tpl-hint level="normal">
Use `/ase-task-edit` or `/ase-task-grill` to refine this plan, `/ase-task-preflight` to dry-run it, and `/ase-task-implement` to realize it.
</ase-tpl-hint>
<if condition="<getopt-option-full/> is not equal `true` and the `## IMPLEMENTATION DRAFT` section was replaced with `[...]`">
<ase-tpl-hint level="verbose">
Use `/ase-task-view --full` to show the elided `IMPLEMENTATION DRAFT` section, too.
</ase-tpl-hint>
</if>
</if>
<else>
<ase-tpl-hint level="normal">
No plan exists under this task id -- use `/ase-task-list` to see the available tasks and `/ase-task-edit` to create a plan.
</ase-tpl-hint>
</else>
