- Refactor for more reliable project root detection, particularly when running within integrated environments like Cursor IDE. Includes deriving root from script path and avoiding fallback to '/'.
- Enhance error handling in :
- Add detailed debug information (paths searched, CWD, etc.) to the error message when is not found in the provided project root.
- Improve clarity of error messages and potential solutions.
- Add verbose logging in to trace session object content and the finally resolved project root path, aiding in debugging path-related issues.
- Add default values for and to the example environment configuration.
This commit fixes several issues with command line interface error handling:
1. Fix inconsistent behavior between --no-generate and --skip-generate:
- Standardized on --skip-generate across all commands
- Updated bin/task-master.js to use --skip-generate instead of --no-generate
- Modified add-subtask and remove-subtask commands to use --skip-generate
2. Enhance error handling for unknown options:
- Removed .allowUnknownOption() from commands to properly detect unknown options
- Added global error handler in bin/task-master.js for unknown commands/options
- Added command-specific error handlers with helpful error messages
3. Improve user experience with better help messages:
- Added helper functions to display formatted command help on errors
- Created command-specific help displays for add-subtask and remove-subtask
- Show available options when encountering unknown options
4. Update MCP server configuration:
- Modified .cursor/mcp.json to use node ./mcp-server/server.js directly
- Removed npx -y usage for more reliable execution
5. Other minor improvements:
- Adjusted column width for task ID display in UI
- Updated version number in package-lock.json to 0.9.30
This resolves issues where users would see confusing error messages like
'error: unknown option --generate' when using an incorrect flag."
