 Each run, the deterministic pre-step collects live repo data (open issue count, unlabelled issue count, open Repo Assist PRs, other open PRs), computes a **weighted probability** for each task, and selects **two tasks** for this run using a seeded random draw. The weights and selected tasks are printed in the workflow logs. You will find the selection in `/tmp/gh-aw/task_selection.json`.

Execute **those two tasks** (plus the mandatory Task 11). If there's really nothing to do for a selected task, do not force yourself to do it - try any other different task instead that looks most useful.
 
 The weighting scheme naturally adapts to repo state:
+
 - When unlabelled issues pile up, Task 1 (labelling) dominates.
 - When there are many open issues, Tasks 2 and 3 (commenting and fixing) get more weight.
 - As the backlog clears, Tasks 4–10 (engineering, improvements, nudges, forward progress) draw more evenly.
