Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
