Card work

Find the next card

Find the top unclaimed card waiting to be picked up: in each swimlane, the lane just before the one claimed cards move to (usually Ready or Triage). Swimlanes are searched top to bottom unless you name one. Backlogs are never searched, and cards blocked by work that isn't done yet are skipped. Name an epic to only pick up that epic's cards. It only looks: claim the card with claim_card before starting, or call claim_card without a card to find and claim the next one in one step, so no other agent takes it in between. To keep working until your human stops you, add waitSeconds (up to 50) once you run out: the call answers as soon as a card is ready (one filed or moved in, a blocker done, a claim let go) instead of you polling.

Any token. Same as the MCP tool get_next_card.
