work-next-issue

Take exactly one Ready issue off the GitHub project board and drive it to an open pull request: select the top item by build order, move the card to In Progress, cut a branch, implement it against the platform contract, climb the test ladder, prove the change at runtime, then open a PR that closes the issue and leave the card In Review. Never more than one issue in flight — a second run resumes the one already started instead of opening another. USE FOR: implementing the next feature off the board, resuming an interrupted issue, running the branch → code → runtime proof → PR cycle. DO NOT USE FOR: creating or ordering the backlog (/define:sync-backlog), deciding architecture or moving cards Backlog → Ready (the shape loop), or debugging behaviour that has no issue behind it (../verify-runtime).
