name: fest-execution description: Execute active festival tasks. Use when finding the next task, marking tasks completed/blocked/reset, committing with festival traceability, advancing workflow steps, and validating sequence progress.

Festival Execution

Core Loop

fest next → do work → fest task completed|blocked → fest commit → fest validate → repeat

Link + Navigation

Festival commands from a project directory depend on an active festival-project link.

# In festival directory: link the execution project path
fest link /absolute/path/to/project
fest link --show

# Shell navigation (after `eval "$(fest shell-init zsh)"`)
fgo           # toggle festival ↔ linked project
fgo project   # jump to linked project
fgo fest      # jump back to linked festival

If the execution project path changes (moved repo, new worktree), relink before continuing work.

Task State

fest task completed
fest task blocked --reason "..."
fest task reset

Do not mix command families:

• fest task mutates task status.
• fest workflow advances phase-level workflow/gate steps.

Visibility and Dependencies

fest show --inprogress --watch
fest show --roadmap
fest deps

Workflow Steps (Phase-Level)

fest workflow status
fest workflow advance
fest workflow skip --reason "..."

Validation

fest validate
fest validate <festival-path>

Common Mistakes

• Using fest task complete / fest task block (wrong verb forms — use completed / blocked).
• Confusing fest workflow commands with task-status commands.
• Continuing work from a new project path without rerunning fest link.
• Skipping fest next and manually selecting tasks out of dependency order.
