task-generator

What problem does it solve?

This skill automates the creation of structured, step-by-step task lists from specifications, plans, or PRDs. It breaks down complex requirements into manageable parent and sub-tasks, complete with relevant file identifications, making project implementation clearer and more efficient for developers, saving planning time.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Structured Task Generation: Automatically generate hierarchical task lists with parent and granular sub-tasks.
• File Identification: Include relevant source and test files for each task, guiding developers directly to the code.
• Progressive Disclosure: Generate high-level tasks first, then break them down into sub-tasks upon user confirmation.
• Use Case: "I've just finalized a spec for a new user authentication feature. This skill will generate a detailed task list, including all necessary code changes and test files, to guide a junior developer through the implementation."

Quick Start
