Adds a new CLI command and MCP tool to reorganize tasks and subtasks within the hierarchy. Features include:
- Moving tasks between different positions in the task list
- Converting tasks to subtasks and vice versa
- Moving subtasks between parents
- Moving multiple tasks at once with comma-separated IDs
- Creating placeholder tasks when moving to new IDs
- Validation to prevent accidental data loss
This is particularly useful for resolving merge conflicts when multiple team members create tasks on different branches.
Enhance analyze-complexity to support analyzing specific tasks by ID or range:
- Add --id option for comma-separated task IDs
- Add --from/--to options for analyzing tasks within a range
- Implement intelligent merging with existing reports
- Update CLI, MCP tools, and direct functions for consistent support
- Add changeset documenting the feature
This commit implements automatic tasks.json file creation when it doesn't exist:
- When tasks.json is missing or invalid, create a new one with { tasks: [] }
- Allows adding tasks immediately after initializing a project without parsing a PRD
- Replaces error with informative feedback about file creation
- Enables smoother workflow for new projects or directories
This change improves user experience by removing the requirement to parse a PRD
before adding the first task to a newly initialized project. Closes#494
This commit significantly improves the functionality by implementing
fuzzy semantic search to find contextually relevant dependencies:
- Add Fuse.js for powerful fuzzy search capability with weighted multi-field matching
- Implement score-based relevance ranking with high/medium relevance tiers
- Enhance context generation to include detailed information about similar tasks
- Fix context shadowing issue that prevented detailed task information from
reaching the AI model
- Add informative CLI output showing semantic search results and dependency patterns
- Improve formatting of dependency information in prompts with task titles
The result is that newly created tasks are automatically placed within the correct
dependency structure without manual intervention, with the AI having much better
context about which tasks are most relevant to the new one being created.
This significantly improves the user experience by reducing the need to manually
update task dependencies after creation, all without increasing token usage or costs.
* 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.

* Update .taskmasterconfig
Max tokens in 3.5 is lower. With the current number get this error:
Service call failed for role fallback (Provider: anthropic, Model: claude-3-5-sonnet-20240620): max_tokens: 120000 > 8192, which is the maximum allowed number of output tokens for claude-3-5-sonnet-20240620
* Fix fallback model ID format and update maxTokens in Taskmaster configuration

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).
- Enhance E2E testing and LLM analysis report and:
- Add --analyze-log flag to run_e2e.sh to re-run LLM analysis on existing logs.
- Add test:e2e and analyze-log scripts to package.json for easier execution.
- Correct display errors and dependency validation output:
- Update chalk usage in add-task.js to use bracket notation (chalk[color]) compatible with v5, resolving 'chalk.keyword is not a function' error.
- Modify fix-dependencies command output to show red failure box with issue count instead of green success box when validation fails.
- Refactor interactive model setup:
- Verify inclusion of 'No change' option during interactive model setup flow (task-master models --setup).
- Update model definitions:
- Add max_tokens field for gpt-4o in supported-models.json.
- Remove unused scripts:
- Delete prepare-package.js and rule-transformer.test.js.
