ab-start-task
SkillProductivityab-start-task runs an existing task all the way to completion without you supervising each step. Your AI works through the remaining missions, keeps the tracker up to date, and makes a commit after every passing mission. You hand off a well-defined task and review the commits instead of the missions.
Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.
No other account needed.
Give your AI a well-defined task and ask it to run it to completion. Then review the commits it makes as the work progresses.
Then ask your AI: use the ab-start-task skill
What your AI can do with it
- Run an existing task autonomously to completion

What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by ayoubben18/ab-method in .agents/skills/ab-start-task/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
This skill runs the AB Method start-task workflow.
Follow the workflow defined in .ab-method/core/start-task.md exactly — it contains the full process, output format, and rules.
Before doing anything, check .ab-method/structure/index.yaml. It defines where this workflow reads from and writes to. Paths are user-configurable; never hardcode them.
