todo-manage

What problem does it solve?

Managing project tasks, especially for complex features, can quickly become disorganized, leading to missed deadlines, unclear priorities, and wasted effort. This skill automates the creation, organization, and maintenance of a comprehensive TODO.md list, ensuring clarity and efficient project execution.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Phase-Based Planning: Automatically breaks down complex projects into 3-5 logical phases with detailed, actionable tasks, effort estimates, affected files, and risk assessments, providing an immediate, structured plan.
• Task Tracking & Updates: Facilitates marking tasks complete, updating progress notes, and noting blockers or dependencies, ensuring the TODO.md always reflects the current project state.
• Automated Cleanup: Regularly removes completed or stale tasks, consolidating duplicates, and keeping the project's TODO.md concise, focused, and relevant.
• Use Case: When starting a new feature like "MCP SDK Migration," simply describe the goal. This skill will generate a structured TODO.md with phases, estimated efforts, affected files, and potential risks, providing an immediate, actionable plan for development and clear communication of progress.
