* Fix: Correct version resolution for banner and update check
Resolves issues where the tool's version was displayed as 'unknown'.
- Modified 'displayBanner' in 'ui.js' and 'checkForUpdate' in 'commands.js' to read package.json relative to their own script locations using import.meta.url.
- This ensures the correct local version is identified for both the main banner display and the update notification mechanism.
- Restored a missing closing brace in 'ui.js' to fix a SyntaxError.

This commit introduces several improvements and refactorings across MCP tools, core logic, and configuration.
**Major Changes:**
1. **Refactor updateSubtaskById:**
- Switched from generateTextService to generateObjectService for structured AI responses, using a Zod schema (subtaskSchema) for validation.
- Revised prompts to have the AI generate relevant content based on user request and context (parent/sibling tasks), while explicitly preventing AI from handling timestamp/tag formatting.
- Implemented **local timestamp generation (new Date().toISOString()) and formatting** (using <info added on ...> tags) within the function *after* receiving the AI response. This ensures reliable and correctly formatted details are appended.
- Corrected logic to append only the locally formatted, AI-generated content block to the existing subtask.details.
2. **Consolidate MCP Utilities:**
- Moved/consolidated the withNormalizedProjectRoot HOF into mcp-server/src/tools/utils.js.
- Updated MCP tools (like update-subtask.js) to import withNormalizedProjectRoot from the new location.
3. **Refactor Project Initialization:**
- Deleted the redundant mcp-server/src/core/direct-functions/initialize-project-direct.js file.
- Updated mcp-server/src/core/task-master-core.js to import initializeProjectDirect from its correct location (./direct-functions/initialize-project.js).
**Other Changes:**
- Updated .taskmasterconfig fallback model to claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219.
- Clarified model cost representation in the models tool description (taskmaster.mdc and mcp-server/src/tools/models.js).

Refactors the JSON array parsing logic within
in .
The previous logic primarily relied on extracting content from markdown
code blocks (json or javascript), which proved brittle when the AI
response included comments or non-JSON text within the block, leading to
parsing errors for the command.
This change modifies the parsing strategy to first attempt extracting
content directly between the outermost '[' and ']' brackets. This is
more robust as it targets the expected array structure directly. If
bracket extraction fails, it falls back to looking for a strict json
code block, then prefix stripping, before attempting a raw parse.
This approach aligns with the successful parsing strategy used for
single-object responses in and resolves the
parsing errors previously observed with the command.

Problem: expand_task & expand_all MCP tools failed with .env keys due to missing projectRoot propagation for API key resolution. Also fixed a ReferenceError: wasSilent is not defined in expandTaskDirect.
Solution: Modified core logic, direct functions, and MCP tools for expand-task and expand-all to correctly destructure projectRoot from arguments and pass it down through the context object to the AI service call (generateTextService). Fixed wasSilent scope in expandTaskDirect.
Verification: Tested expand_task successfully in MCP using .env keys. Reviewed expand_all flow for correct projectRoot propagation.

Modified update-subtask-by-id core, direct function, and tool to pass projectRoot for .env API key fallback. Removed check preventing appending details to completed subtasks.
