# Start Task
Use this skill when the user wants to begin working on a Trekker task.
## Required Flow
```bash
trekker search "refresh"
trekker task show TREK-12
trekker history --entity TREK-12
trekker comment list TREK-12
trekker dep list TREK-12
trekker task update TREK-12 -s in_progress
```
## What to Surface
After starting the task, summarize:
- The task goal
- Relevant prior comments or history
- Existing blockers or dependencies
- Any nearby tasks found during search
If the task id is not known, inspect current `in_progress` and `ready` tasks before choosing one.
