SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Break down high-level implementation plans into structured, executable task lists that can be tracked and delivered.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Phased task generation: organizes work by setup, foundational tasks, and user-story phases with explicit dependencies.
  • User story mapping: maps components to specific user stories, ensuring traceability from plan to code.
  • Enforced task format: produces tasks in a strict checklist format with file paths and IDs for automation-ready pipelines.
  • Extension hooks support: detects and reports actionable extension hooks before and after task generation, if configured.

Quick Start

Provide your project plan or spec input via ARGUMENTS to generate a ready-to-run tasks.md with phased story-based tasks.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert a high-level implementation plan into executable tasks?▼

To convert an implementation plan into executable tasks, you provide the spec as input to generate a tasks.md file. This file contains phased tasks, user stories, explicit dependencies, and file paths ready for delivery tracking.

What is dependency-aware task generation for sprint planning?▼

Dependency-aware task generation organizes project work into setup, foundational, and user-story phases while mapping explicit dependencies between them. This ensures traceability from architecture plans to executable checklists for sprint planning.

Can I generate a tasks.md checklist with user stories from a project specification?▼

Yes, you can generate a tasks.md checklist from a project specification by passing it as input. The output maps components to specific user stories and enforces a strict checklist format with task IDs for automation-ready pipelines.

Does this approach support extension hooks before and after task generation?▼

Yes, the task generation process detects and reports actionable extension hooks before and after execution if they are configured. This allows you to integrate custom automation into your project-management workflow.

What is the best way to structure architecture review outputs for automation?▼

The best way to structure architecture review outputs for automation is to enforce a strict checklist format with clear file paths and task IDs. This produces an automation-ready tasks.md file with dependency-aware phases.
