+## Workflow Example
+
+Complete task management workflow:
+
+```bash
+# 1. List available tasks
+core ai tasks --status pending
+
+# 2. Auto-select and claim a task
+core ai task --auto --claim
+
+# 3. Work on the task...
+
+# 4. Update progress
+core ai task:update abc123 --progress 75
+
+# 5. Commit with task reference
+core ai task:commit abc123 -m 'implement feature'
+
+# 6. Create PR
+core ai task:pr abc123
+
+# 7. Mark complete
+core ai task:complete abc123 --output 'Feature implemented and PR created'
+```
+
+## Task Filtering
+
+```bash
+# By status
+core ai tasks --status pending
+core ai tasks --status in_progress
+
+# By priority
+core ai tasks --priority critical
+core ai tasks --priority high
+
+# By labels
+core ai tasks --labels bug,urgent
+
+# Combined filters
+core ai tasks --status pending --priority high --labels bug
+```
+
+## Task Updates
+
+```bash
+# Change status
+core ai task:update abc123 --status in_progress
+core ai task:update abc123 --status blocked
+
+# Update progress
+core ai task:update abc123 --progress 25
+core ai task:update abc123 --progress 50 --notes 'Halfway done'
+core ai task:update abc123 --progress 100
+```
+
+## Git Integration
+
+```bash
+# Commit with task reference
+core ai task:commit abc123 -m 'add authentication'
+
+# With scope
+core ai task:commit abc123 -m 'fix login' --scope auth
+
+# Commit and push
+core ai task:commit abc123 -m 'complete feature' --push
