## Testing

To test the renamed skill:

1. **Via Handoff:** Select "Auto" from handoff options at the end of any iteration
2. **Via Command:** Run `/ao-auto` directly
3. **Verify:**
   - Skill scans for actionable issues in priority files
   - Works through them autonomously
   - Only asks when priority files are empty (checks backlog)
   - Respects confidence-based batch limits
