+Add configurable MCP tool loading to optimize LLM context usage
+
+You can now control which Task Master MCP tools are loaded by setting the `TASK_MASTER_TOOLS` environment variable in your MCP configuration. This helps reduce context usage for LLMs by only loading the tools you need.
+
+**Configuration Options:**
+
+- `all` (default): Load all 36 tools
+- `core` or `lean`: Load only 7 essential tools for daily development
+  - Includes: `get_tasks`, `next_task`, `get_task`, `set_task_status`, `update_subtask`, `parse_prd`, `expand_task`
+- `standard`: Load 15 commonly used tools (all core tools plus 8 more)
+  - Additional tools: `initialize_project`, `analyze_project_complexity`, `expand_all`, `add_subtask`, `remove_task`, `generate`, `add_task`, `complexity_report`
+- Custom list: Comma-separated tool names (e.g., `get_tasks,next_task,set_task_status`)
+
+**Example .mcp.json configuration:**
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "task-master-ai": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "task-master-ai"],

-Enhanced Roo Code profile with MCP timeout configuration for improved reliability during long-running AI operations. The Roo profile now automatically configures a 300-second timeout for MCP server operations, preventing timeouts during complex tasks like `parse-prd`, `expand-all`, `analyze-complexity`, and `research` operations. This change also replaces static MCP configuration files with programmatic generation for better maintainability.
-
-**What's New:**
-- 300-second timeout for MCP operations (up from default 60 seconds)
-- Programmatic MCP configuration generation (replaces static asset files)
-- Enhanced reliability for AI-powered operations
-- Consistent with other AI coding assistant profiles
-
-**Migration:** No user action required - existing Roo Code installations will automatically receive the enhanced MCP configuration on next initialization.

-You are an elite implementation specialist focused on executing and completing specific tasks with precision and thoroughness. Your role is to take identified tasks and transform them into working implementations, following best practices and project standards.
-
-**IMPORTANT: You are designed to be SHORT-LIVED and FOCUSED**
-- Execute ONE specific subtask or a small group of related subtasks
-- Complete your work, verify it, mark for review, and exit
-- Do NOT decide what to do next - the orchestrator handles task sequencing
-- Focus on implementation excellence within your assigned scope
-
-**Core Responsibilities:**
-
-1. **Subtask Analysis**: When given a subtask, understand its SPECIFIC requirements. If given a full task ID, focus on the specific subtask(s) assigned to you. Use MCP tools to get details if needed.
-
-2. **Rapid Implementation Planning**: Quickly identify:
-   - The EXACT files you need to create/modify for THIS subtask
-   - What already exists that you can build upon
-   - The minimum viable implementation that satisfies requirements
-
-3. **Focused Execution WITH ACTUAL IMPLEMENTATION**: 
-   - **YOU MUST USE TOOLS TO CREATE/EDIT FILES - DO NOT JUST DESCRIBE**
-   - Use `Write` tool to create new files specified in the task
-   - Use `Edit` tool to modify existing files
-   - Use `Bash` tool to run commands (mkdir, npm install, etc.)
-   - Use `Read` tool to verify your implementations
-   - Implement one subtask at a time for clarity and traceability
-   - Follow the project's coding standards from CLAUDE.md if available
-   - After each subtask, VERIFY the files exist using Read or ls commands
-
-4. **Progress Documentation**: 
-   - Use MCP tool `mcp__task-master-ai__update_subtask` to log your approach and any important decisions
-   - Update task status to 'in-progress' when starting: Use MCP tool `mcp__task-master-ai__set_task_status` with status='in-progress'
-   - **IMPORTANT: Mark as 'review' (NOT 'done') after implementation**: Use MCP tool `mcp__task-master-ai__set_task_status` with status='review'
-   - Tasks will be verified by task-checker before moving to 'done'
-
-5. **Quality Assurance**:
-   - Implement the testing strategy specified in the task
-   - Verify that all acceptance criteria are met
-   - Check for any dependency conflicts or integration issues
-   - Run relevant tests before marking task as complete
-
-6. **Dependency Management**:
-   - Check task dependencies before starting implementation
-   - If blocked by incomplete dependencies, clearly communicate this
-   - Use `task-master validate-dependencies` when needed
-
-**Implementation Workflow:**
-
-1. Retrieve task details using MCP tool `mcp__task-master-ai__get_task` with the task ID
-2. Check dependencies and prerequisites
-3. Plan implementation approach - list specific files to create
-4. Update task status to 'in-progress' using MCP tool
-5. **ACTUALLY IMPLEMENT** the solution using tools:
-   - Use `Bash` to create directories
-   - Use `Write` to create new files with actual content
-   - Use `Edit` to modify existing files
-   - DO NOT just describe what should be done - DO IT
-6. **VERIFY** your implementation:
-   - Use `ls` or `Read` to confirm files were created
-   - Use `Bash` to run any build/test commands
-   - Ensure the implementation is real, not theoretical
-7. Log progress and decisions in subtask updates using MCP tools
-8. Test and verify the implementation works
-9. **Mark task as 'review' (NOT 'done')** after verifying files exist
-10. Report completion with:
-    - List of created/modified files
-    - Any issues encountered
-    - What needs verification by task-checker
-
-**Key Principles:**
-
-- Focus on completing one task thoroughly before moving to the next
-- Maintain clear communication about what you're implementing and why
-- Follow existing code patterns and project conventions
-- Prioritize working code over extensive documentation unless docs are the task
-- Ask for clarification if task requirements are ambiguous
-- Consider edge cases and error handling in your implementations
-
-**Integration with Task Master:**
-
-You work in tandem with the task-orchestrator agent. While the orchestrator identifies and plans tasks, you execute them. Always use Task Master commands to:
-- Track your progress
-- Update task information
-- Maintain project state
-- Coordinate with the broader development workflow
-
-When you complete a task, briefly summarize what was implemented and suggest whether to continue with the next task or if review/testing is needed first.

-
-You are the Task Orchestrator, an elite coordination agent specialized in managing Task Master workflows for maximum efficiency and parallelization. You excel at analyzing task dependency graphs, identifying opportunities for concurrent execution, and deploying specialized task-executor agents to complete work efficiently.
-
-## Core Responsibilities
-
-1. **Subtask-Level Analysis**: Break down tasks into INDIVIDUAL SUBTASKS and analyze which specific subtasks can run in parallel. Focus on subtask dependencies, not just task-level dependencies.
-
-2. **Reality Verification**: ALWAYS verify what files actually exist vs what task status claims. Use the context provided about actual implementation state to make informed decisions.
-
-3. **Short-Lived Executor Deployment**: Deploy executors for SINGLE SUBTASKS or small groups of related subtasks. Keep executors focused and short-lived. Maximum 3 parallel executors at once.
-
-4. **Continuous Reassessment**: After EACH subtask completes, immediately reassess what new subtasks are unblocked and can run in parallel.
-
-## Operational Workflow
-
-### Initial Assessment Phase
-1. Use `get_tasks` or `task-master list` to retrieve all available tasks
-2. Analyze task statuses, priorities, and dependencies
-3. Identify tasks with status 'pending' that have no blocking dependencies
-4. Group related tasks that could benefit from specialized executors
-5. Create an execution plan that maximizes parallelization
-
-### Executor Deployment Phase
-1. For each independent task or task group:
-   - Deploy a task-executor agent with specific instructions
-   - Provide the executor with task ID, requirements, and context
-   - Set clear completion criteria and reporting expectations
-2. Maintain a registry of active executors and their assigned tasks
-3. Establish communication protocols for progress updates
-
-### Coordination Phase
-1. Monitor executor progress through task status updates
-2. When a task completes:
-   - Verify completion with `get_task` or `task-master show <id>`
-   - Update task status if needed using `set_task_status`
-   - Reassess dependency graph for newly unblocked tasks
-   - Deploy new executors for available work
-3. Handle executor failures or blocks:
-   - Reassign tasks to new executors if needed
-   - Escalate complex issues to the user
-   - Update task status to 'blocked' when appropriate
-
-### Optimization Strategies
-
-**Parallel Execution Rules**:
-- Never assign dependent tasks to different executors simultaneously
-- Prioritize high-priority tasks when resources are limited
-- Group small, related subtasks for single executor efficiency
-- Balance executor load to prevent bottlenecks
-
-**Context Management**:
-- Provide executors with minimal but sufficient context
-- Share relevant completed task information when it aids execution
-- Maintain a shared knowledge base of project-specific patterns
-
-**Quality Assurance**:
-- Verify task completion before marking as done
-- Ensure test strategies are followed when specified
-- Coordinate cross-task integration testing when needed
-
-## Communication Protocols
-
-When deploying executors, provide them with:
-```
-TASK ASSIGNMENT:
-- Task ID: [specific ID]
-- Objective: [clear goal]
-- Dependencies: [list any completed prerequisites]
-- Success Criteria: [specific completion requirements]
-- Context: [relevant project information]
-- Reporting: [when and how to report back]
-```
-
-When receiving executor updates:
-1. Acknowledge completion or issues
-2. Update task status in Task Master
-3. Reassess execution strategy
-4. Deploy new executors as appropriate
-
-## Decision Framework
-
-**When to parallelize**:
-- Multiple pending tasks with no interdependencies
-- Sufficient context available for independent execution
-- Tasks are well-defined with clear success criteria
-
-**When to serialize**:
-- Strong dependencies between tasks
-- Limited context or unclear requirements
-- Integration points requiring careful coordination
-
-**When to escalate**:
-- Circular dependencies detected
-- Critical blockers affecting multiple tasks
-- Ambiguous requirements needing clarification
-- Resource conflicts between executors
-
-## Error Handling
-
-1. **Executor Failure**: Reassign task to new executor with additional context about the failure
-2. **Dependency Conflicts**: Halt affected executors, resolve conflict, then resume
-3. **Task Ambiguity**: Request clarification from user before proceeding
-4. **System Errors**: Implement graceful degradation, falling back to serial execution if needed
-
-## Performance Metrics
-
-Track and optimize for:
-- Task completion rate
-- Parallel execution efficiency
-- Executor success rate
-- Time to completion for task groups
-- Dependency resolution speed
-
-## Integration with Task Master
-
-Leverage these Task Master MCP tools effectively:
-- `get_tasks` - Continuous queue monitoring
-- `get_task` - Detailed task analysis
-- `set_task_status` - Progress tracking
-- `next_task` - Fallback for serial execution
-- `analyze_project_complexity` - Strategic planning
-- `complexity_report` - Resource allocation
-
-## Output Format for Execution
-
-**Your job is to analyze and create actionable execution plans that Claude can use to deploy executors.**
-
-After completing your dependency analysis, you MUST output a structured execution plan:
-
-```yaml
-execution_plan:
-  EXECUTE_IN_PARALLEL:
-    # Maximum 3 subtasks running simultaneously
-    - subtask_id: [e.g., 118.2]

-        
-        IMPORTANT: 
-        - Focus ONLY on this subtask
-        - Mark subtask as 'review' when complete
-        - Use MCP tool: mcp__task-master-ai__set_task_status
-

-      priority: [priority]
-      estimated_time: [time estimate]
-      executor_prompt: |
-        [Focused prompt for this specific subtask]
-    
-  blocked:
-    - task_id: [ID]
-      title: [Task title]
-      waiting_for: [list of blocking task IDs]
-      becomes_ready_when: [condition for unblocking]
-      
-  next_wave: 
-    trigger: "After tasks [IDs] complete"
-    newly_available: [List of task IDs that will unblock]
-    tasks_to_execute_in_parallel: [IDs that can run together in next wave]
-    
-  critical_path: [Ordered list of task IDs forming the critical path]
-  
-  parallelization_instruction: |
-    IMPORTANT FOR CLAUDE: Deploy ALL tasks in 'EXECUTE_IN_PARALLEL' section
-    simultaneously using multiple Task tool invocations in a single response.
-    Example: If 3 tasks are listed, invoke the Task tool 3 times in one message.
-    
-  verification_needed:
-    - task_id: [ID of any task in 'review' status]
-      verification_focus: [what to check]
-```
-
-**CRITICAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLAUDE (MAIN):**
-1. When you see `EXECUTE_IN_PARALLEL`, deploy ALL listed executors at once
-2. Use multiple Task tool invocations in a SINGLE response
-3. Do not execute them sequentially - they must run in parallel
-4. Wait for all parallel executors to complete before proceeding to next wave
-
-**IMPORTANT NOTES**: 
-- Label parallel tasks clearly in `EXECUTE_IN_PARALLEL` section
-- Provide complete, self-contained prompts for each executor
-- Executors should mark tasks as 'review' for verification, not 'done'
-- Be explicit about which tasks can run simultaneously
-
-You are the strategic mind analyzing the entire task landscape. Make parallelization opportunities UNMISTAKABLY CLEAR to Claude.

+# Repository Planning Graph (RPG) Method - PRD Template
+
+This template teaches you (AI or human) how to create structured, dependency-aware PRDs using the RPG methodology from Microsoft Research. The key insight: separate WHAT (functional) from HOW (structural), then connect them with explicit dependencies.
+
+## Core Principles
+
+1. **Dual-Semantics**: Think functional (capabilities) AND structural (code organization) separately, then map them
+2. **Explicit Dependencies**: Never assume - always state what depends on what
+3. **Topological Order**: Build foundation first, then layers on top
+4. **Progressive Refinement**: Start broad, refine iteratively
+
+## How to Use This Template
+
+- Follow the instructions in each `<instruction>` block
+- Look at `<example>` blocks to see good vs bad patterns
+- Fill in the content sections with your project details
+- The AI reading this will learn the RPG method by following along
+- Task Master will parse the resulting PRD into dependency-aware tasks
+
+## Recommended Tools for Creating PRDs
+
+When using this template to **create** a PRD (not parse it), use **code-context-aware AI assistants** for best results:
+
+**Why?** The AI needs to understand your existing codebase to make good architectural decisions about modules, dependencies, and integration points.
+
+**Recommended tools:**
+- **Claude Code** (claude-code CLI) - Best for structured reasoning and large contexts
+- **Cursor/Windsurf** - IDE integration with full codebase context
+- **Gemini CLI** (gemini-cli) - Massive context window for large codebases
+- **Codex/Grok CLI** - Strong code generation with context awareness
+
+**Note:** Once your PRD is created, `task-master parse-prd` works with any configured AI model - it just needs to read the PRD text itself, not your codebase.
+</rpg-method>
+
+---
+
+<overview>
+<instruction>
+Start with the problem, not the solution. Be specific about:
+- What pain point exists?
+- Who experiences it?
+- Why existing solutions don't work?
+- What success looks like (measurable outcomes)?
+
+Keep this section focused - don't jump into implementation details yet.
+</instruction>
+
+## Problem Statement
+[Describe the core problem. Be concrete about user pain points.]
+
+## Target Users
+[Define personas, their workflows, and what they're trying to achieve.]
+
+## Success Metrics
+[Quantifiable outcomes. Examples: "80% task completion via autopilot", "< 5% manual intervention rate"]
+
+</overview>
+
+---
+
+<functional-decomposition>
+<instruction>
+Now think about CAPABILITIES (what the system DOES), not code structure yet.
+
+Step 1: Identify high-level capability domains
+- Think: "What major things does this system do?"
+- Examples: Data Management, Core Processing, Presentation Layer
+
+Step 2: For each capability, enumerate specific features
+- Use explore-exploit strategy:
+  * Exploit: What features are REQUIRED for core value?
+  * Explore: What features make this domain COMPLETE?
+
+Step 3: For each feature, define:
+- Description: What it does in one sentence
+- Inputs: What data/context it needs
+- Outputs: What it produces/returns
+- Behavior: Key logic or transformations
+
+<example type="good">
+Capability: Data Validation
+  Feature: Schema validation
+    - Description: Validate JSON payloads against defined schemas
+    - Inputs: JSON object, schema definition
+    - Outputs: Validation result (pass/fail) + error details
+    - Behavior: Iterate fields, check types, enforce constraints
+
+  Feature: Business rule validation
+    - Description: Apply domain-specific validation rules
+    - Inputs: Validated data object, rule set
+    - Outputs: Boolean + list of violated rules
+    - Behavior: Execute rules sequentially, short-circuit on failure
+</example>
+
+<example type="bad">
+Capability: validation.js
+  (Problem: This is a FILE, not a CAPABILITY. Mixing structure into functional thinking.)
+
+Capability: Validation
+  Feature: Make sure data is good
+  (Problem: Too vague. No inputs/outputs. Not actionable.)
+</example>
+</instruction>
+
+## Capability Tree
+
+### Capability: [Name]
+[Brief description of what this capability domain covers]
+
+#### Feature: [Name]
+- **Description**: [One sentence]
+- **Inputs**: [What it needs]
+- **Outputs**: [What it produces]
+- **Behavior**: [Key logic]
+
+#### Feature: [Name]
+- **Description**:
+- **Inputs**:
+- **Outputs**:
+- **Behavior**:
+
+### Capability: [Name]
+...
+
+</functional-decomposition>
+
+---
+
+<structural-decomposition>
+<instruction>
+NOW think about code organization. Map capabilities to actual file/folder structure.
+
+Rules:
+1. Each capability maps to a module (folder or file)
+2. Features within a capability map to functions/classes
+3. Use clear module boundaries - each module has ONE responsibility
+4. Define what each module exports (public interface)
+
+The goal: Create a clear mapping between "what it does" (functional) and "where it lives" (structural).
+
+<example type="good">
+Capability: Data Validation
+  → Maps to: src/validation/
+    ├── schema-validator.js      (Schema validation feature)
+    ├── rule-validator.js         (Business rule validation feature)
+    └── index.js                  (Public exports)
+
+Exports:
+  - validateSchema(data, schema)
+  - validateRules(data, rules)
+</example>
+
+<example type="bad">
+Capability: Data Validation
+  → Maps to: src/utils.js
+  (Problem: "utils" is not a clear module boundary. Where do I find validation logic?)
+
+Capability: Data Validation
+  → Maps to: src/validation/everything.js
+  (Problem: One giant file. Features should map to separate files for maintainability.)

+<dependency-graph>
+<instruction>
+This is THE CRITICAL SECTION for Task Master parsing.
+
+Define explicit dependencies between modules. This creates the topological order for task execution.
+
+Rules:
+1. List modules in dependency order (foundation first)
+2. For each module, state what it depends on
+3. Foundation modules should have NO dependencies
+4. Every non-foundation module should depend on at least one other module
+5. Think: "What must EXIST before I can build this module?"
+
+<example type="good">
+Foundation Layer (no dependencies):
+  - error-handling: No dependencies
+  - config-manager: No dependencies
+  - base-types: No dependencies
+
+Data Layer:
+  - schema-validator: Depends on [base-types, error-handling]
+  - data-ingestion: Depends on [schema-validator, config-manager]
+
+Core Layer:
+  - algorithm-engine: Depends on [base-types, error-handling]
+  - pipeline-orchestrator: Depends on [algorithm-engine, data-ingestion]
+</example>
+
+<example type="bad">
+- validation: Depends on API
+- API: Depends on validation
+(Problem: Circular dependency. This will cause build/runtime issues.)
+
+- user-auth: Depends on everything
+(Problem: Too many dependencies. Should be more focused.)
+</example>
+</instruction>
+
+## Dependency Chain

+### Foundation Layer (Phase 0)
+No dependencies - these are built first.
+
+- **[Module Name]**: [What it provides]
+- **[Module Name]**: [What it provides]
+
+### [Layer Name] (Phase 1)

+
+[Continue building up layers...]

+
+<implementation-roadmap>
+<instruction>
+Turn the dependency graph into concrete development phases.
+
+Each phase should:
+1. Have clear entry criteria (what must exist before starting)
+2. Contain tasks that can be parallelized (no inter-dependencies within phase)
+3. Have clear exit criteria (how do we know phase is complete?)
+4. Build toward something USABLE (not just infrastructure)
+
+Phase ordering follows topological sort of dependency graph.
+
+<example type="good">
+Phase 0: Foundation
+  Entry: Clean repository
+  Tasks:
+    - Implement error handling utilities
+    - Create base type definitions
+    - Setup configuration system
+  Exit: Other modules can import foundation without errors
+
+Phase 1: Data Layer
+  Entry: Phase 0 complete
+  Tasks:
+    - Implement schema validator (uses: base types, error handling)
+    - Build data ingestion pipeline (uses: validator, config)
+  Exit: End-to-end data flow from input to validated output
+</example>
+
+<example type="bad">
+Phase 1: Build Everything
+  Tasks:
+    - API
+    - Database
+    - UI
+    - Tests

+# How Task Master Uses This PRD
+
+When you run `task-master parse-prd <file>.txt`, the parser:
+
+1. **Extracts capabilities** → Main tasks
+   - Each `### Capability:` becomes a top-level task
+
+2. **Extracts features** → Subtasks
+   - Each `#### Feature:` becomes a subtask under its capability
+
+3. **Parses dependencies** → Task dependencies
+   - `Depends on: [X, Y]` sets task.dependencies = ["X", "Y"]
+
+4. **Orders by phases** → Task priorities
+   - Phase 0 tasks = highest priority
+   - Phase N tasks = lower priority, properly sequenced
+
+5. **Uses test strategy** → Test generation context
+   - Feeds test scenarios to Surgical Test Generator during implementation
+
+**Result**: A dependency-aware task graph that can be executed in topological order.
+
+## Why RPG Structure Matters
+
+Traditional flat PRDs lead to:
+- ❌ Unclear task dependencies
+- ❌ Arbitrary task ordering
+- ❌ Circular dependencies discovered late
+- ❌ Poorly scoped tasks
+
+RPG-structured PRDs provide:
+- ✅ Explicit dependency chains
+- ✅ Topological execution order
+- ✅ Clear module boundaries
+- ✅ Validated task graph before implementation
+
+## Tips for Best Results
+
+1. **Spend time on dependency graph** - This is the most valuable section for Task Master
+2. **Keep features atomic** - Each feature should be independently testable
+3. **Progressive refinement** - Start broad, use `task-master expand` to break down complex tasks
+4. **Use research mode** - `task-master parse-prd --research` leverages AI for better task generation

+### Minor Changes
+
+- [#1286](https://github.com/eyaltoledano/claude-task-master/pull/1286) [`f12a16d`](https://github.com/eyaltoledano/claude-task-master/commit/f12a16d09649f62148515f11f616157c7d0bd2d5) Thanks [@Crunchyman-ralph](https://github.com/Crunchyman-ralph)! - Add changelog highlights to auto-update notifications
+
+  When the CLI auto-updates to a new version, it now displays a "What's New" section.
+
+- [#1293](https://github.com/eyaltoledano/claude-task-master/pull/1293) [`3010b90`](https://github.com/eyaltoledano/claude-task-master/commit/3010b90d98f3a7d8636caa92fc33d6ee69d4bed0) Thanks [@Crunchyman-ralph](https://github.com/Crunchyman-ralph)! - Add Claude Code plugin with marketplace distribution
+
+  This release introduces official Claude Code plugin support, marking the evolution from legacy `.claude` directory copying to a modern plugin-based architecture.
+
+  ## 🎉 New: Claude Code Plugin
+
+  Task Master AI commands and agents are now distributed as a proper Claude Code plugin:
+  - **49 slash commands** with clean naming (`/taskmaster:command-name`)
+  - **3 specialized AI agents** (task-orchestrator, task-executor, task-checker)
+  - **MCP server integration** for deep Claude Code integration
+
+  **Installation:**
+
+  ```bash
+  /plugin marketplace add eyaltoledano/claude-task-master
+  /plugin install taskmaster@taskmaster
+  ```
+
+  ### The `rules add claude` command no longer copies commands and agents to `.claude/commands/` and `.claude/agents/`. Instead, it now
+  - Shows plugin installation instructions
+  - Only manages CLAUDE.md imports for agent instructions
+  - Directs users to install the official plugin
+
+  **Migration for Existing Users:**
+
+  If you previously used `rules add claude`:
+  1. The old commands in `.claude/commands/` will continue to work but won't receive updates
+  2. Install the plugin for the latest features: `/plugin install taskmaster@taskmaster`
+  3. remove old `.claude/commands/` and `.claude/agents/` directories
+
+  **Why This Change?**
+
+  Claude Code plugins provide:
+  - ✅ Automatic updates when we release new features
+  - ✅ Better command organization and naming
+  - ✅ Seamless integration with Claude Code
+  - ✅ No manual file copying or management
+
+  The plugin system is the future of Task Master AI integration with Claude Code!

The new `example_prd_rpg.txt` template teaches AI agents and developers the RPG methodology through embedded instructions, inline good/bad examples, and XML-style tags for structure. This template enables creation of dependency-aware PRDs that automatically generate topologically-ordered task graphs when parsed with Task Master.
+
+  Key features:
+  - Method-as-template: teaches RPG principles (dual-semantics, explicit dependencies, topological order) while being used
+  - Inline instructions at decision points guide AI through each section
+  - Good/bad examples for immediate pattern matching
+  - Flexible plain-text format with XML-style tags for parseability
+  - Critical dependency-graph section ensures correct task ordering
+  - Automatic inclusion during `task-master init`
+  - Comprehensive documentation at [docs.task-master.dev/capabilities/rpg-method](https://docs.task-master.dev/capabilities/rpg-method)
+  - Tool recommendations for code-context-aware PRD creation (Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Codex/Grok)
+
+  The RPG template complements the existing `example_prd.txt` and provides a more structured approach for complex projects requiring clear module boundaries and dependency chains.

+
+  The expand-all operation now automatically leverages recommendations from `analyze-complexity` to determine optimal subtask counts for each task, resulting in more accurate and context-aware task breakdowns.
+
+  Key improvements:
+  - Automatic integration with complexity analysis reports
+  - Tag-aware complexity report path resolution
+  - Intelligent subtask count determination based on task complexity
+  - Falls back to defaults when complexity analysis is unavailable
+  - Enhanced logging for better visibility into expansion decisions
+
+  When you run `task-master expand --all` after `task-master analyze-complexity`, Task Master now uses the recommended subtask counts from the complexity analysis instead of applying uniform defaults, ensuring each task is broken down according to its actual complexity.

+
+  This update migrates all AI service calls from generateText to generateObject, ensuring more reliable and structured responses across all commands.
+
+  ### Key Changes:
+  - **Unified AI Service**: Replaced separate generateText implementations with a single generateObjectService that handles structured data generation
+  - **JSON Mode Support**: Added proper JSON mode configuration for providers that support it (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq)
+  - **Schema Validation**: Integrated Zod schemas for all AI-generated content with automatic validation
+  - **Provider Compatibility**: Maintained compatibility with all existing providers while leveraging their native structured output capabilities
+  - **Improved Reliability**: Structured output generation reduces parsing errors and ensures consistent data formats
+
+  ### Technical Improvements:
+  - Centralized provider configuration in `ai-providers-unified.js`
+  - Added `generateObject` support detection for each provider
+  - Implemented proper error handling for schema validation failures
+  - Maintained backward compatibility with existing prompt structures
+
+  ### Bug Fixes:
+  - Fixed subtask ID numbering issue where AI was generating inconsistent IDs (101-105, 601-603) instead of sequential numbering (1, 2, 3...)
+  - Enhanced prompt instructions to enforce proper ID generation patterns
+  - Ensured subtasks display correctly as X.1, X.2, X.3 format
+

+- [#1112](https://github.com/eyaltoledano/claude-task-master/pull/1112) [`d67b81d`](https://github.com/eyaltoledano/claude-task-master/commit/d67b81d25ddd927fabb6f5deb368e8993519c541) Thanks [@olssonsten](https://github.com/olssonsten)! - Enhanced Roo Code profile with MCP timeout configuration for improved reliability during long-running AI operations. The Roo profile now automatically configures a 300-second timeout for MCP server operations, preventing timeouts during complex tasks like `parse-prd`, `expand-all`, `analyze-complexity`, and `research` operations. This change also replaces static MCP configuration files with programmatic generation for better maintainability.
+
+  **What's New:**
+  - 300-second timeout for MCP operations (up from default 60 seconds)
+  - Programmatic MCP configuration generation (replaces static asset files)
+  - Enhanced reliability for AI-powered operations
+  - Consistent with other AI coding assistant profiles
+
+  **Migration:** No user action required - existing Roo Code installations will automatically receive the enhanced MCP configuration on next initialization.

+
+  This update migrates all AI service calls from generateText to generateObject, ensuring more reliable and structured responses across all commands.
+
+  ### Key Changes:
+  - **Unified AI Service**: Replaced separate generateText implementations with a single generateObjectService that handles structured data generation
+  - **JSON Mode Support**: Added proper JSON mode configuration for providers that support it (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq)
+  - **Schema Validation**: Integrated Zod schemas for all AI-generated content with automatic validation
+  - **Provider Compatibility**: Maintained compatibility with all existing providers while leveraging their native structured output capabilities
+  - **Improved Reliability**: Structured output generation reduces parsing errors and ensures consistent data formats
+
+  ### Technical Improvements:
+  - Centralized provider configuration in `ai-providers-unified.js`
+  - Added `generateObject` support detection for each provider
+  - Implemented proper error handling for schema validation failures
+  - Maintained backward compatibility with existing prompt structures
+
+  ### Bug Fixes:
+  - Fixed subtask ID numbering issue where AI was generating inconsistent IDs (101-105, 601-603) instead of sequential numbering (1, 2, 3...)
+  - Enhanced prompt instructions to enforce proper ID generation patterns
+  - Ensured subtasks display correctly as X.1, X.2, X.3 format
+
+  This migration improves the reliability and consistency of AI-generated content throughout the Task Master application.

+
+### Synchronous Tests
+- **NEVER use async/await in test functions** unless testing actual asynchronous operations
+- Use synchronous top-level imports instead of dynamic `await import()`
+- Test bodies should be synchronous whenever possible
+- Example:
+  ```javascript
+  // ✅ CORRECT - Synchronous imports
+  import { MyClass } from '../src/my-class.js';
+
+  it('should verify behavior', () => {
+    expect(new MyClass().property).toBe(value);

+## Tool Loading Configuration
+
+### Optimizing MCP Tool Loading
+
+Task Master's MCP server supports selective tool loading to reduce context window usage. By default, all 36 tools are loaded (~21,000 tokens) to maintain backward compatibility with existing installations.
+
+You can optimize performance by configuring the `TASK_MASTER_TOOLS` environment variable:
+
+### Available Modes
+
+| Mode | Tools | Context Usage | Use Case |
+|------|-------|--------------|----------|
+| `all` (default) | 36 | ~21,000 tokens | Complete feature set - all tools available |
+| `standard` | 15 | ~10,000 tokens | Common task management operations |
+| `core` (or `lean`) | 7 | ~5,000 tokens | Essential daily development workflow |
+| `custom` | Variable | Variable | Comma-separated list of specific tools |
+
+### Configuration Methods
+
+#### Method 1: Environment Variable in MCP Configuration
+
+Add `TASK_MASTER_TOOLS` to your MCP configuration file's `env` section:
+
+```jsonc
+{
+  "mcpServers": {  // or "servers" for VS Code
+    "task-master-ai": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "--package=task-master-ai", "task-master-ai"],
+      "env": {
+        "TASK_MASTER_TOOLS": "standard",  // Options: "all", "standard", "core", "lean", or comma-separated list
+        "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "your-key-here",
+        // ... other API keys
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### Method 2: Claude Code CLI (One-Time Setup)
+
+For Claude Code users, you can set the mode during installation:
+
+```bash
+# Core mode example (~70% token reduction)
+claude mcp add task-master-ai --scope user \
+  --env TASK_MASTER_TOOLS="core" \
+  -- npx -y task-master-ai@latest
+
+# Custom tools example
+claude mcp add task-master-ai --scope user \
+  --env TASK_MASTER_TOOLS="get_tasks,next_task,set_task_status" \
+  -- npx -y task-master-ai@latest
+```
+
+### Tool Sets Details
+
+**Core Tools (7):** `get_tasks`, `next_task`, `get_task`, `set_task_status`, `update_subtask`, `parse_prd`, `expand_task`
+
+**Standard Tools (15):** All core tools plus `initialize_project`, `analyze_project_complexity`, `expand_all`, `add_subtask`, `remove_task`, `generate`, `add_task`, `complexity_report`
+
+**All Tools (36):** Complete set including project setup, task management, analysis, dependencies, tags, research, and more
+
+### Recommendations
+
+- **New users**: Start with `"standard"` mode for a good balance
+- **Large projects**: Use `"core"` mode to minimize token usage
+- **Complex workflows**: Use `"all"` mode or custom selection
+- **Backward compatibility**: If not specified, defaults to `"all"` mode
+

 Each tool is defined with a name, a description, and a set of parameters that are validated using the `zod` library. The `execute` function of each tool calls the corresponding core logic function from `scripts/modules/task-manager.js`.
 
+## Configurable Tool Loading
+
+To optimize LLM context usage, you can control which Task Master MCP tools are loaded using the `TASK_MASTER_TOOLS` environment variable. This is particularly useful when working with LLMs that have context limits or when you only need a subset of tools.
+
+### Configuration Modes
+
+#### All Tools (Default)
+Loads all 36 available tools. Use when you need full Task Master functionality.
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "task-master-ai": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "task-master-ai"],

+        "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "your_key_here"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+If `TASK_MASTER_TOOLS` is not set, all tools are loaded by default.
+
+#### Core Tools (Lean Mode)
+Loads only 7 essential tools for daily development. Ideal for minimal context usage.
+
+**Core tools included:**
+- `get_tasks` - List all tasks
+- `next_task` - Find the next task to work on
+- `get_task` - Get detailed task information
+- `set_task_status` - Update task status
+- `update_subtask` - Add implementation notes

+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Choosing the Right Configuration
+
+- **Use `core`/`lean`**: When working with basic task management workflows or when context limits are strict
+- **Use `standard`**: For most development workflows that include task creation and analysis
+- **Use `all`**: When you need full functionality including tag management, dependencies, and advanced features
+- **Use custom list**: When you have specific tool requirements or want to experiment with minimal sets
+
+### Verification
+
+When the MCP server starts, it logs which tools were loaded:
+
+```
+Task Master MCP Server starting...
+Tool mode configuration: standard
+Loading standard tools
+Registering 15 MCP tools (mode: standard)
+Successfully registered 15/15 tools
+```
+
 ## Tool Categories
 
 The MCP tools can be categorized in the same way as the core functionalities:

+
+# Repository Planning Graph (RPG) Method
+
+The RPG (Repository Planning Graph) method is an advanced approach to creating Product Requirements Documents that generate highly-structured, dependency-aware task graphs. It's based on Microsoft Research's methodology for scalable codebase generation.
+
+## When to Use RPG
+
+Use the RPG template (`example_prd_rpg.txt`) for:
+
+- **Complex multi-module systems** with intricate dependencies
+- **Large-scale codebases** being built from scratch
+- **Projects requiring explicit architecture** and clear module boundaries
+- **Teams needing dependency visibility** for parallel development
+
+For simpler features or smaller projects, the standard `example_prd.txt` template may be more appropriate.
+
+---
+
+## Core Principles
+
+### 1. Dual-Semantics
+
+Separate **functional** thinking (WHAT) from **structural** thinking (HOW):
+
+```
+Functional: "Data Validation capability with schema checking and rule enforcement"
+                    ↓
+Structural: "src/validation/ with schema-validator.js and rule-validator.js"
+```
+
+This separation prevents mixing concerns and creates clearer module boundaries.
+
+### 2. Explicit Dependencies
+
+Never assume dependencies - always state them explicitly:
+
+```
+Good:
+  Module: data-ingestion
+  Depends on: [schema-validator, config-manager]
+
+Bad:
+  Module: data-ingestion
+  (Assumes schema-validator exists somewhere)
+```
+
+Explicit dependencies enable:
+- Topological ordering of implementation
+- Parallel development of independent modules
+- Clear build/test order
+- Early detection of circular dependencies
+
+### 3. Topological Order
+
+Build foundation layers before higher layers:
+
+```
+Phase 0 (Foundation): error-handling, base-types, config
+                ↓
+Phase 1 (Data): validation, ingestion (depend on Phase 0)
+                ↓
+Phase 2 (Core): algorithms, pipelines (depend on Phase 1)
+                ↓
+Phase 3 (API): routes, handlers (depend on Phase 2)
+```
+
+Task Master automatically orders tasks based on this dependency chain.
+
+### 4. Progressive Refinement
+
+Start broad, refine iteratively:
+
+1. High-level capabilities → Main tasks
+2. Features per capability → Subtasks
+3. Implementation details → Expanded subtasks
+
+---
+
+## Template Structure
+
+The RPG template guides you through 7 key sections:
+
+### 1. Overview
+- Problem statement
+- Target users
+- Success metrics
+
+### 2. Functional Decomposition (WHAT)
+- High-level capability domains
+- Features per capability
+- Inputs/outputs/behavior for each feature
+
+**Example:**
+```
+Capability: Data Management
+  Feature: Schema validation
+    Description: Validate JSON against defined schemas
+    Inputs: JSON object, schema definition
+    Outputs: Validation result + error details
+    Behavior: Iterate fields, check types, enforce constraints
+```
+
+### 3. Structural Decomposition (HOW)
+- Repository folder structure
+- Module-to-capability mapping
+- File organization
+- Public interfaces/exports
+
+**Example:**
+```
+Capability: Data Management
+  → Maps to: src/data/
+    ├── schema-validator.js    (Schema validation feature)
+    ├── rule-validator.js      (Rule validation feature)
+    └── index.js               (Exports)
+```
+
+### 4. Dependency Graph (CRITICAL)
+- Foundation layer (no dependencies)
+- Each subsequent layer's dependencies
+- Explicit "depends on" declarations
+
+**Example:**
+```
+Foundation Layer (Phase 0):
+  - error-handling: No dependencies
+  - base-types: No dependencies
+
+Data Layer (Phase 1):
+  - schema-validator: Depends on [base-types, error-handling]
+  - data-ingestion: Depends on [schema-validator]
+```
+
+### 5. Implementation Roadmap
+- Phases with entry/exit criteria
+- Tasks grouped by phase
+- Clear deliverables per phase
+
+### 6. Test Strategy
+- Test pyramid ratios
+- Coverage requirements
+- Critical test scenarios per module
+- Guidelines for test generation
+
+### 7. Architecture & Risks
+- Technical architecture
+- Data models
+- Technology decisions
+- Risk mitigation strategies
+
+---
+
+## Using RPG with Task Master
+
+### Step 1: Create PRD with RPG Template
+
+Use a code-context-aware tool to fill out the template:
+
+```bash
+# In Claude Code, Cursor, or similar
+"Create a PRD using @.taskmaster/templates/example_prd_rpg.txt for [your project]"
+```
+
+**Why code context matters:** The AI needs to understand your existing codebase to make informed decisions about:
+- Module boundaries
+- Dependency relationships
+- Integration points
+- Naming conventions
+
+**Recommended tools:**
+- Claude Code (claude-code CLI)
+- Cursor/Windsurf
+- Gemini CLI (large contexts)
+- Codex/Grok CLI
+
+### Step 2: Parse PRD into Tasks
+
+```bash
+task-master parse-prd .taskmaster/docs/your-prd.txt --research
+```
+
+Task Master will:
+1. Extract capabilities → Main tasks
+2. Extract features → Subtasks
+3. Parse dependencies → Task dependencies
+4. Order by phases → Task priorities
+
+**Result:** A dependency-aware task graph ready for topological execution.
+
+### Step 3: Analyze Complexity
+
+```bash
+task-master analyze-complexity --research
+```
+
+Review the complexity report to identify tasks that need expansion.
+
+### Step 4: Expand Tasks
+
+```bash
+task-master expand --all --research
+```
+
+Break down complex tasks into manageable subtasks while preserving dependency chains.
+
+---
+
+## RPG Benefits
+
+### For Solo Developers
+- Clear roadmap for implementing complex features
+- Prevents architectural mistakes early
+- Explicit dependency tracking avoids integration issues
+- Enables resuming work after interruptions
+
+### For Teams
+- Parallel development of independent modules
+- Clear contracts between modules (explicit dependencies)
+- Reduced merge conflicts (proper module boundaries)
+- Onboarding aid (architectural overview in PRD)
+
+### For AI Agents
+- Structured context for code generation
+- Clear scope boundaries per task
+- Dependency awareness prevents incomplete implementations
+- Test strategy guidance for TDD workflows
+

+
+## RPG vs Standard Template
+
+| Aspect | Standard Template | RPG Template |
+|--------|------------------|--------------|
+| **Best for** | Simple features | Complex systems |
+| **Dependency handling** | Implicit | Explicit graph |
+| **Structure guidance** | Minimal | Step-by-step |
+| **Examples** | Few | Inline good/bad examples |
+| **Module boundaries** | Vague | Precise mapping |
+| **Task ordering** | Manual | Automatic (topological) |
+| **Learning curve** | Low | Medium |
+| **Resulting task quality** | Good | Excellent |
+
+---
+
+## Tips for Best Results
+
+### 1. Spend Time on Dependencies
+The dependency graph section is the most valuable. List all dependencies explicitly, even if they seem obvious.
+
+### 2. Keep Features Atomic
+Each feature should be independently testable. If a feature description is vague ("handle data"), break it into specific features.
+
+### 3. Progressive Refinement
+Don't try to get everything perfect on the first pass:
+1. Fill out high-level sections
+2. Review and refine
+3. Add detail where needed
+4. Let `task-master expand` break down complex tasks further
+
+### 4. Use Research Mode
+```bash
+task-master parse-prd --research
+```
+The `--research` flag leverages AI to enhance task generation with domain knowledge.
+
+### 5. Validate Early
+```bash
+task-master validate-dependencies
+```
+Check for circular dependencies or orphaned modules before starting implementation.
+
+---
+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+### ❌ Mixing Functional and Structural
+```
+Bad: "Capability: validation.js"
+Good: "Capability: Data Validation" → maps to "src/validation/"
+```
+
+### ❌ Vague Module Boundaries
+```
+Bad: "Module: utils"
+Good: "Module: string-utilities" with clear exports
+```
+
+### ❌ Implicit Dependencies
+```
+Bad: "Module: API handlers (needs validation)"
+Good: "Module: API handlers, Depends on: [validation, error-handling]"
+```
+
+### ❌ Skipping Test Strategy
+Without test strategy, the AI won't know what to test during implementation.
+
+---
+
+## Example Workflow
+
+1. **Discuss idea with AI**: Explain your project concept
+2. **Reference RPG template**: Show AI the `example_prd_rpg.txt`
+3. **Co-create PRD**: Work through each section with AI guidance
+4. **Save to docs**: Place in `.taskmaster/docs/your-project.txt`
+5. **Parse PRD**: `task-master parse-prd .taskmaster/docs/your-project.txt --research`
+6. **Analyze**: `task-master analyze-complexity --research`
+7. **Expand**: `task-master expand --all --research`
+8. **Start work**: `task-master next`

+Create a `.env` file in your project root:
+
+```bash
+# Copy from .env.example
+cp .env.example .env
+
+# Edit with your keys
+vim .env
+```
+
+### Method 2: System Environment Variables
+```bash
+export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="your-key-here"
+export PERPLEXITY_API_KEY="your-key-here"
+# ... other keys
+```
+
+### Method 3: MCP Server Configuration
+For Claude Code integration, configure keys in `.mcp.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "task-master-ai": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "task-master-ai"],
+      "env": {
+        "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "your-key-here",
+        "PERPLEXITY_API_KEY": "your-key-here",
+        "OPENAI_API_KEY": "your-key-here"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Key Requirements
+
+### Minimum Requirements
+- **At least one** AI provider key is required
+- **ANTHROPIC_API_KEY** is recommended as the primary provider
+- **PERPLEXITY_API_KEY** is highly recommended for research features
+
+### Provider-Specific Requirements
+- **Azure OpenAI**: Requires both `AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY` and `AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT` configuration
+- **Google Vertex**: Requires `VERTEX_PROJECT_ID` and `VERTEX_LOCATION` environment variables
+- **AWS Bedrock**: Uses AWS credential chain (profiles, IAM roles, etc.) instead of API keys
+- **Ollama**: Only needs API key for remote servers with authentication
+- **CLI Providers**: Gemini CLI, Grok CLI, and Claude Code use OAuth/CLI config instead of API keys
+
+## Model Configuration
+
+After setting up API keys, configure which models to use:
+
+```bash
+# Interactive model setup
+task-master models --setup
+
+# Set specific models
+task-master models --set-main claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022
+task-master models --set-research perplexity-llama-3.1-sonar-large-128k-online
+task-master models --set-fallback gpt-4o-mini
+```
+
+## Security Best Practices
+
+1. **Never commit API keys** to version control
+2. **Use .env files** and add them to `.gitignore`
+3. **Rotate keys regularly** especially if compromised
+4. **Use minimal permissions** for service accounts
+5. **Monitor usage** to detect unauthorized access
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Key Validation
+```bash
+# Check if keys are properly configured
+task-master models
+
+# Test specific provider
+task-master add-task --prompt="test task" --model=claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022
+```
+
+### Common Issues
+- **Invalid key format**: Check the expected format for each provider
+- **Insufficient permissions**: Ensure keys have necessary API access
+- **Rate limits**: Some providers have usage limits
+- **Regional restrictions**: Some models may not be available in all regions

+# Repository Planning Graph (RPG) Method - PRD Template
+
+This template teaches you (AI or human) how to create structured, dependency-aware PRDs using the RPG methodology from Microsoft Research. The key insight: separate WHAT (functional) from HOW (structural), then connect them with explicit dependencies.
+
+## Core Principles
+
+1. **Dual-Semantics**: Think functional (capabilities) AND structural (code organization) separately, then map them
+2. **Explicit Dependencies**: Never assume - always state what depends on what
+3. **Topological Order**: Build foundation first, then layers on top
+4. **Progressive Refinement**: Start broad, refine iteratively
+
+## How to Use This Template
+
+- Follow the instructions in each `<instruction>` block
+- Look at `<example>` blocks to see good vs bad patterns
+- Fill in the content sections with your project details
+- The AI reading this will learn the RPG method by following along
+- Task Master will parse the resulting PRD into dependency-aware tasks
+
+## Recommended Tools for Creating PRDs
+
+When using this template to **create** a PRD (not parse it), use **code-context-aware AI assistants** for best results:
+
+**Why?** The AI needs to understand your existing codebase to make good architectural decisions about modules, dependencies, and integration points.
+
+**Recommended tools:**
+- **Claude Code** (claude-code CLI) - Best for structured reasoning and large contexts
+- **Cursor/Windsurf** - IDE integration with full codebase context
+- **Gemini CLI** (gemini-cli) - Massive context window for large codebases
+- **Codex/Grok CLI** - Strong code generation with context awareness
+
+**Note:** Once your PRD is created, `task-master parse-prd` works with any configured AI model - it just needs to read the PRD text itself, not your codebase.
+</rpg-method>
+
+---
+
+<overview>
+<instruction>
+Start with the problem, not the solution. Be specific about:
+- What pain point exists?
+- Who experiences it?
+- Why existing solutions don't work?
+- What success looks like (measurable outcomes)?
+
+Keep this section focused - don't jump into implementation details yet.
+</instruction>
+
+## Problem Statement
+[Describe the core problem. Be concrete about user pain points.]
+
+## Target Users
+[Define personas, their workflows, and what they're trying to achieve.]
+
+## Success Metrics
+[Quantifiable outcomes. Examples: "80% task completion via autopilot", "< 5% manual intervention rate"]
+
+</overview>
+
+---
+
+<functional-decomposition>
+<instruction>
+Now think about CAPABILITIES (what the system DOES), not code structure yet.
+
+Step 1: Identify high-level capability domains
+- Think: "What major things does this system do?"
+- Examples: Data Management, Core Processing, Presentation Layer
+
+Step 2: For each capability, enumerate specific features
+- Use explore-exploit strategy:
+  * Exploit: What features are REQUIRED for core value?
+  * Explore: What features make this domain COMPLETE?
+
+Step 3: For each feature, define:
+- Description: What it does in one sentence
+- Inputs: What data/context it needs
+- Outputs: What it produces/returns
+- Behavior: Key logic or transformations
+
+<example type="good">
+Capability: Data Validation
+  Feature: Schema validation
+    - Description: Validate JSON payloads against defined schemas
+    - Inputs: JSON object, schema definition
+    - Outputs: Validation result (pass/fail) + error details
+    - Behavior: Iterate fields, check types, enforce constraints
+
+  Feature: Business rule validation
+    - Description: Apply domain-specific validation rules
+    - Inputs: Validated data object, rule set
+    - Outputs: Boolean + list of violated rules
+    - Behavior: Execute rules sequentially, short-circuit on failure
+</example>
+
+<example type="bad">
+Capability: validation.js
+  (Problem: This is a FILE, not a CAPABILITY. Mixing structure into functional thinking.)
+
+Capability: Validation
+  Feature: Make sure data is good
+  (Problem: Too vague. No inputs/outputs. Not actionable.)
+</example>
+</instruction>
+
+## Capability Tree
+
+### Capability: [Name]
+[Brief description of what this capability domain covers]
+
+#### Feature: [Name]
+- **Description**: [One sentence]
+- **Inputs**: [What it needs]
+- **Outputs**: [What it produces]
+- **Behavior**: [Key logic]
+
+#### Feature: [Name]
+- **Description**:
+- **Inputs**:
+- **Outputs**:
+- **Behavior**:
+
+### Capability: [Name]
+...
+
+</functional-decomposition>
+
+---
+
+<structural-decomposition>
+<instruction>
+NOW think about code organization. Map capabilities to actual file/folder structure.
+
+Rules:
+1. Each capability maps to a module (folder or file)
+2. Features within a capability map to functions/classes
+3. Use clear module boundaries - each module has ONE responsibility
+4. Define what each module exports (public interface)
+
+The goal: Create a clear mapping between "what it does" (functional) and "where it lives" (structural).
+
+<example type="good">
+Capability: Data Validation
+  → Maps to: src/validation/
+    ├── schema-validator.js      (Schema validation feature)
+    ├── rule-validator.js         (Business rule validation feature)
+    └── index.js                  (Public exports)
+
+Exports:
+  - validateSchema(data, schema)
+  - validateRules(data, rules)
+</example>
+
+<example type="bad">
+Capability: Data Validation
+  → Maps to: src/utils.js
+  (Problem: "utils" is not a clear module boundary. Where do I find validation logic?)
+
+Capability: Data Validation
+  → Maps to: src/validation/everything.js
+  (Problem: One giant file. Features should map to separate files for maintainability.)
+</example>
+</instruction>
+
+## Repository Structure
+
+```
+project-root/
+├── src/
+│   ├── [module-name]/       # Maps to: [Capability Name]

+<dependency-graph>
+<instruction>
+This is THE CRITICAL SECTION for Task Master parsing.
+
+Define explicit dependencies between modules. This creates the topological order for task execution.
+
+Rules:
+1. List modules in dependency order (foundation first)
+2. For each module, state what it depends on
+3. Foundation modules should have NO dependencies
+4. Every non-foundation module should depend on at least one other module
+5. Think: "What must EXIST before I can build this module?"
+
+<example type="good">
+Foundation Layer (no dependencies):
+  - error-handling: No dependencies
+  - config-manager: No dependencies
+  - base-types: No dependencies
+
+Data Layer:
+  - schema-validator: Depends on [base-types, error-handling]
+  - data-ingestion: Depends on [schema-validator, config-manager]
+
+Core Layer:
+  - algorithm-engine: Depends on [base-types, error-handling]
+  - pipeline-orchestrator: Depends on [algorithm-engine, data-ingestion]
+</example>
+
+<example type="bad">
+- validation: Depends on API
+- API: Depends on validation
+(Problem: Circular dependency. This will cause build/runtime issues.)
+
+- user-auth: Depends on everything
+(Problem: Too many dependencies. Should be more focused.)
+</example>
+</instruction>
+
+## Dependency Chain
+
+### Foundation Layer (Phase 0)
+No dependencies - these are built first.
+
+- **[Module Name]**: [What it provides]

+Turn the dependency graph into concrete development phases.
+
+Each phase should:
+1. Have clear entry criteria (what must exist before starting)
+2. Contain tasks that can be parallelized (no inter-dependencies within phase)
+3. Have clear exit criteria (how do we know phase is complete?)
+4. Build toward something USABLE (not just infrastructure)
+
+Phase ordering follows topological sort of dependency graph.
+
+<example type="good">
+Phase 0: Foundation
+  Entry: Clean repository
+  Tasks:
+    - Implement error handling utilities
+    - Create base type definitions
+    - Setup configuration system
+  Exit: Other modules can import foundation without errors
+
+Phase 1: Data Layer
+  Entry: Phase 0 complete
+  Tasks:
+    - Implement schema validator (uses: base types, error handling)
+    - Build data ingestion pipeline (uses: validator, config)
+  Exit: End-to-end data flow from input to validated output
+</example>
+
+<example type="bad">
+Phase 1: Build Everything
+  Tasks:
+    - API
+    - Database
+    - UI
+    - Tests
+  (Problem: No clear focus. Too broad. Dependencies not considered.)

+# How Task Master Uses This PRD
+
+When you run `task-master parse-prd <file>.txt`, the parser:
+
+1. **Extracts capabilities** → Main tasks
+   - Each `### Capability:` becomes a top-level task
+
+2. **Extracts features** → Subtasks
+   - Each `#### Feature:` becomes a subtask under its capability
+
+3. **Parses dependencies** → Task dependencies
+   - `Depends on: [X, Y]` sets task.dependencies = ["X", "Y"]
+
+4. **Orders by phases** → Task priorities
+   - Phase 0 tasks = highest priority
+   - Phase N tasks = lower priority, properly sequenced
+
+5. **Uses test strategy** → Test generation context
+   - Feeds test scenarios to Surgical Test Generator during implementation
+
+**Result**: A dependency-aware task graph that can be executed in topological order.
+
+## Why RPG Structure Matters
+
+Traditional flat PRDs lead to:
+- ❌ Unclear task dependencies
+- ❌ Arbitrary task ordering
+- ❌ Circular dependencies discovered late
+- ❌ Poorly scoped tasks
+
+RPG-structured PRDs provide:
+- ✅ Explicit dependency chains
+- ✅ Topological execution order
+- ✅ Clear module boundaries
+- ✅ Validated task graph before implementation
+
+## Tips for Best Results
+
+1. **Spend time on dependency graph** - This is the most valuable section for Task Master
+2. **Keep features atomic** - Each feature should be independently testable
+3. **Progressive refinement** - Start broad, use `task-master expand` to break down complex tasks
+4. **Use research mode** - `task-master parse-prd --research` leverages AI for better task generation
