startloop

# Start Agentic Development Loop

Initiates an autonomous development loop that iteratively works through beads issues. The loop automatically selects the highest priority ready task (no blockers), claims it, and presents it for implementation.

## Usage

```bash
# Start a new development loop
/bkff:startloop

# Resume a paused loop
/bkff:startloop --resume
```

## How It Works

1. **Task Selection**: Finds the highest priority task with no blockers (`bd ready`)
2. **Task Claiming**: Sets the task status to `in_progress`
3. **Work Presentation**: Displays the task details for implementation
4. **Completion**: After work is done, verification passes, and task is closed
5. **Iteration**: Automatically selects the next ready task
