Config Structure Changes and Gateway Integration
## Configuration Structure Changes
- Restructured .taskmasterconfig to use 'account' section for user settings
- Moved userId, userEmail, mode, telemetryEnabled from global to account section
- API keys remain isolated in .env file (not accessible to AI)
- Enhanced getUserId() to always return value, never null (sets default '1234567890')
## Gateway Integration Enhancements
- Updated registerUserWithGateway() to accept both email and userId parameters
- Enhanced /auth/init endpoint integration for existing user validation
- API key updates automatically written to .env during registration process
- Improved user identification and validation flow
## Code Updates for New Structure
- Fixed config-manager.js getter functions for account section access
- Updated user-management.js to use config.account.userId/mode
- Modified telemetry-submission.js to read from account section
- Added getTelemetryEnabled() function with proper account section access
- Enhanced telemetry configuration reading with new structure
## Comprehensive Test Updates
- Updated integration tests (init-config.test.js) for new config structure
- Fixed unit tests (config-manager.test.js) with updated default config
- Updated telemetry tests (telemetry-submission.test.js) for account structure
- Added missing getTelemetryEnabled mock to ai-services-unified.test.js
- Fixed all test expectations to use config.account.* instead of config.global.*
- Removed references to deprecated config.subscription object
## Configuration Access Consistency
- Standardized configuration access patterns across entire codebase
- Clean separation: user settings in account, API keys in .env, models/global in respective sections
- All tests passing with new configuration structure
- Maintained backward compatibility during transition
Changes support enhanced telemetry system with proper user management and gateway integration while maintaining security through API key isolation.
This commit introduces a standardized pattern for capturing and propagating AI usage telemetry (cost, tokens, model used) across the Task Master stack and applies it to the 'add-task' functionality.
Key changes include:
- **Telemetry Pattern Definition:**
- Added defining the integration pattern for core logic, direct functions, MCP tools, and CLI commands.
- Updated related rules (, ,

- **Core Telemetry Implementation ():**
- Refactored the unified AI service to generate and return a object alongside the main AI result.
- Fixed an MCP server startup crash by removing redundant local loading of and instead using the imported from for cost calculations.
- Added to the object.
- ** Integration:**
- Modified (core) to receive from the AI service, return it, and call the new UI display function for CLI output.
- Updated to receive from the core function and include it in the payload of its response.
- Ensured (MCP tool) correctly passes the through via .
- Updated to correctly pass context (, ) to the core function and rely on it for CLI telemetry display.
- **UI Enhancement:**
- Added function to to show telemetry details in the CLI.
- **Project Management:**
- Added subtasks 77.6 through 77.12 to track the rollout of this telemetry pattern to other AI-powered commands (, , , , , , ).
This establishes the foundation for tracking AI usage across the application.
This commit updates all relevant documentation (READMEs, docs/*, .cursor/rules) to accurately reflect the finalized unified AI service architecture and the new configuration system (.taskmasterconfig + .env/mcp.json). It also includes the final code cleanup steps related to the refactoring.
Key Changes:
1. **Documentation Updates:**
* Revised `README.md`, `README-task-master.md`, `assets/scripts_README.md`, `docs/configuration.md`, and `docs/tutorial.md` to explain the new configuration split (.taskmasterconfig vs .env/mcp.json).
* Updated MCP configuration examples in READMEs and tutorials to only include API keys in the `env` block.
* Added/updated examples for using the `--research` flag in `docs/command-reference.md`, `docs/examples.md`, and `docs/tutorial.md`.
* Updated `.cursor/rules/ai_services.mdc`, `.cursor/rules/architecture.mdc`, `.cursor/rules/dev_workflow.mdc`, `.cursor/rules/mcp.mdc`, `.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc`, `.cursor/rules/utilities.mdc`, and `.cursor/rules/new_features.mdc` to align with the new architecture, removing references to old patterns/files.
* Removed internal rule links from user-facing rules (`taskmaster.mdc`, `dev_workflow.mdc`, `self_improve.mdc`).
* Deleted outdated example file `docs/ai-client-utils-example.md`.
2. **Final Code Refactor & Cleanup:**
* Corrected `update-task-by-id.js` by removing the last import from the old `ai-services.js`.
* Refactored `update-subtask-by-id.js` to correctly use the unified service and logger patterns.
* Removed the obsolete export block from `mcp-server/src/core/task-master-core.js`.
* Corrected logger implementation in `update-tasks.js` for CLI context.
* Updated API key mapping in `config-manager.js` and `ai-services-unified.js`.
3. **Configuration Files:**
* Updated API keys in `.cursor/mcp.json`, replacing `GROK_API_KEY` with `XAI_API_KEY`.
* Updated `.env.example` with current API key names.
* Added `azureOpenaiBaseUrl` to `.taskmasterconfig` example.
4. **Task Management:**
* Marked documentation subtask 61.10 as 'done'.
* Includes various other task content/status updates from the diff summary.
5. **Changeset:**
* Added `.changeset/cuddly-zebras-matter.md` for user-facing `expand`/`expand-all` improvements.
This commit concludes the major architectural refactoring (Task 61) and ensures the documentation accurately reflects the current system.
- Unified Service: Introduced 'scripts/modules/ai-services-unified.js' to centralize AI interactions using provider modules ('src/ai-providers/') and the Vercel AI SDK.
- Provider Modules: Implemented 'anthropic.js' and 'perplexity.js' wrappers for Vercel SDK.
- 'updateSubtaskById' Fix: Refactored the AI call within 'updateSubtaskById' to use 'generateTextService' from the unified layer, resolving runtime errors related to parameter passing and streaming. This serves as the pattern for refactoring other AI calls in 'scripts/modules/task-manager/'.
- Task Status: Marked Subtask 61.19 as 'done'.
- Rules: Added new 'ai-services.mdc' rule.
This centralizes AI logic, replacing previous direct SDK calls and custom implementations. API keys are resolved via 'resolveEnvVariable' within the service layer. The refactoring of 'updateSubtaskById' establishes the standard approach for migrating other AI-dependent functions in the task manager module to use the unified service.
Relates to Task 61.
