## Task

Advance this repository: find what is open, implement what is ready, then commit
and sync.

### 1. Find the open work

Two sources, and check both: uncommitted changes in the working tree, and open
tasks in the workplan files. They often disagree — half-finished work in the
tree that no task mentions, or a task marked `progress` with nothing to show.
Report the disagreement; it is usually informative.

### 2. Decide what is actually ready

Not everything open is ready. A task is ready when its premises still hold and
nothing it depends on is unresolved. A task that needs a decision from me is not
ready — surface it instead of guessing.

Say what you chose to work on and what you deliberately left.

### 3. Implement

Implement the ready work. Verify each piece before calling it done: run the
tests, exercise the path, show the output. If something fails, report the
failure rather than working around it silently.

Update task statuses in the workplan files as you go, not in a batch at the end.

### 5. Report

What was implemented and verified, what was left and why, and anything that
needs a decision before the next session.
