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).

Problem: The MCP tool previously handled project root acquisition and path resolution within its method, leading to potential inconsistencies and repetition.
Solution: Refactored the tool () to utilize the new Higher-Order Function (HOF) from .
Specific Changes:
- Imported HOF.
- Updated the Zod schema for the parameter to be optional, as the HOF handles deriving it from the session if not provided.
- Wrapped the entire function body with the HOF.
- Removed the manual call to from within the function body.
- Destructured the from the object received by the wrapped function, ensuring it's the normalized path provided by the HOF.
- Used the normalized variable when calling and when passing arguments to .
This change standardizes project root handling for the tool, simplifies its method, and ensures consistent path normalization. This serves as the pattern for refactoring other MCP tools.
