Read-only shortlist of unassigned, ready Jira tickets your team could pick up next — active sprint first, then the next sprint and top of backlog — with flagged or blocked ones listed separately. Scoped by a workspace pickup.toml.

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

# Pickup — What Could I Take Next?

List unassigned tickets in a ready status for this team, by sprint then priority, so you can
choose one to start. Your own work comes first: in-progress tickets that slipped out of the
active sprint, then tickets assigned to you but not started, so you finish what you hold
before claiming more. `/landscape` and `/plan-day` cover tickets already in progress for
you; `/next` covers beads; `/project-brief` covers workspace coordination. This skill only
answers "what unclaimed work is ready?".

## Usage

```text
/pickup            # configured labels, any size
/pickup small      # prefer small tickets (quick win)
/pickup meaty      # prefer large tickets (deep work)
/pickup FE         # override configured labels; comma-separate several (FE,FS)
/pickup all        # ignore the label filter
/pickup BE small   # combine
```

## Boundaries

- **Read-only.** Never assign, transition, comment on, rank or flag a ticket. Picking one is the
  user's step: hand off to `/start-ticket <KEY>` and leave the Jira assignment to them.
- **Config scopes the query.** Never widen to other projects, statuses or teams than

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add flurdy/agent-skills/pickup@sha256:7bb19f3ab32a586a

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.7.0, 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.
