This commit introduces several significant improvements:
- **Enhanced Unit Testing:** Vastly improved unit tests for the module, covering core functions, edge cases, and error handling. Simplified test functions and comprehensive mocking were implemented for better isolation and reliability. Added new section to tests.mdc detailing reliable testing techniques.
- **CLI Kebab-Case Flag Enforcement:** The CLI now enforces kebab-case for flags, providing helpful error messages when camelCase is used. This improves consistency and user experience.
- **AI Enhancements:**
- Enabled 128k token output for Claude 3.7 Sonnet by adding the header.
- Added a new task to to document this change and its testing strategy.
- Added unit tests to verify the Anthropic client configuration.
- Added and utility functions.
- **Improved Test Coverage:** Added tests for the new CLI flag validation logic.
This commit introduces significant enhancements and refactoring to the Task Master CLI, focusing on improved testing, integration with Perplexity AI for research-backed task updates, and core logic refactoring for better maintainability and functionality.
**Testing Infrastructure Setup:**
- Implemented Jest as the primary testing framework, setting up a comprehensive testing environment.
- Added new test scripts to including , , and for streamlined testing workflows.
- Integrated necessary devDependencies for testing, such as , , , , and , to support unit, integration, and end-to-end testing.
**Dependency Updates:**
- Updated and to reflect the latest dependency versions, ensuring project stability and access to the newest features and security patches.
- Upgraded to version 0.9.16 and usage: openai [-h] [-v] [-b API_BASE] [-k API_KEY] [-p PROXY [PROXY ...]]
[-o ORGANIZATION] [-t {openai,azure}]
[--api-version API_VERSION] [--azure-endpoint AZURE_ENDPOINT]
[--azure-ad-token AZURE_AD_TOKEN] [-V]
{api,tools,migrate,grit} ...
positional arguments:
{api,tools,migrate,grit}
api Direct API calls
tools Client side tools for convenience
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v, --verbose Set verbosity.
-b, --api-base API_BASE
What API base url to use.
-k, --api-key API_KEY
What API key to use.
-p, --proxy PROXY [PROXY ...]
What proxy to use.
-o, --organization ORGANIZATION
Which organization to run as (will use your default
organization if not specified)
-t, --api-type {openai,azure}
The backend API to call, must be `openai` or `azure`
--api-version API_VERSION

https://www.microsoft.com/en-
us/security/business/identity-access/microsoft-entra-
id
-V, --version show program's version number and exit to 4.89.0.
- Added dependency (version 2.3.0) and updated related dependencies to their latest versions.
**Perplexity AI Integration for Research-Backed Updates:**
- Introduced an option to leverage Perplexity AI for task updates, enabling research-backed enhancements to task details.
- Implemented logic to initialize a Perplexity AI client if the environment variable is available.
- Modified the function to accept a parameter, allowing dynamic selection between Perplexity AI and Claude AI for task updates based on API key availability and user preference.
- Enhanced to handle responses from Perplexity AI and update tasks accordingly, including improved error handling and logging for robust operation.
**Core Logic Refactoring and Improvements:**
- Refactored the function to utilize task IDs instead of dependency IDs, ensuring consistency and clarity in dependency management.
- Implemented a new function to rigorously check for both circular dependencies and self-dependencies within tasks, improving task relationship integrity.
- Enhanced UI elements in :
- Refactored to incorporate icons for different task statuses and utilize a object for color mapping, improving visual representation of task status.
- Updated to display colored complexity scores with emojis, providing a more intuitive and visually appealing representation of task complexity.
- Refactored the task data structure creation and validation process:
- Updated the JSON Schema for to reflect a more streamlined and efficient task structure.
- Implemented Task Model Classes for better data modeling and type safety.
- Improved File System Operations for task data management.
- Developed robust Validation Functions and an Error Handling System to ensure data integrity and application stability.
**Testing Guidelines Implementation:**
- Implemented guidelines for writing testable code when developing new features, promoting a test-driven development approach.
- Added testing requirements and best practices for unit, integration, and edge case testing to ensure comprehensive test coverage.
- Updated the development workflow to mandate writing tests before proceeding with configuration and documentation updates, reinforcing the importance of testing throughout the development lifecycle.
This commit collectively enhances the Task Master CLI's reliability, functionality, and developer experience through improved testing practices, AI-powered research capabilities, and a more robust and maintainable codebase.
