:task — one task in full

Alias: ta. Argument: the issue key (:task CLO-142). enter from the board or the table.

Everything about one task: the scrollable activity log, subtasks, dependencies, check output, and each PR with its draft state, CI, review decision and stack base. The header also carries the worktree path and the live session id as a ready-to-paste claude --resume — the two handles you need to poke at a session from outside colinear (the transcript lives under ~/.claude/projects/<encoded-worktree>/<session-id>.jsonl).

Keys

key what
j k scroll the log · g top · G follow the tail
a answer the agent's question
1–9 pick an option, when there's a single question
P review a split plan or a coordinator's proposed sub-issues
d mark the draft PR ready — the only path out of draft
D promote anyway, past an unlanded merge-order dependency
s attach claude · S shell · x cancel · r resume/retry
o open the PR · O open the issue

Answering questions

a opens a form over the view. An agent can ask up to four questions at once, each with options that carry a description of what choosing them means:

The answer form open over the board: the agent's question, its numbered options, and the keys to pick one or write your own

← goes back to change an answer; they're sent together. e writes the whole set as a markdown form and opens $EDITOR — for a paragraph, or to answer four at once. Anything left blank is sent as "you decide".

Permission prompts (a classifier blocking a command) use the same form with allow/deny.

Plan review

A too_big triage verdict returns a split plan: single-repo sub-issues with dependencies. P reviews it — space drops an item, A creates them as sub-issues with the right blocking relations, D creates and dispatches. A coordinator's proposals review the same way.
