+Fix MCP server compatibility with Draft-07 clients (Augment IDE, gemini-cli, gemini code assist)
+
+- Resolves #1284
+
+**Problem:**
+
+- MCP tools were using Zod v4, which outputs JSON Schema Draft 2020-12
+- MCP clients only support Draft-07
+- Tools were not discoverable in gemini-cli and other clients
+
+**Solution:**
+
+- Updated all MCP tools to import from `zod/v3` instead of `zod`
+- Zod v3 schemas convert to Draft-07 via FastMCP's zod-to-json-schema
+- Fixed logger to use stderr instead of stdout (MCP protocol requirement)
+
+This is a temporary workaround until FastMCP adds JSON Schema version configuration.

+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"],

+description: Find duplicate GitHub issues
+---
+
+Find up to 3 likely duplicate issues for a given GitHub issue.
+
+To do this, follow these steps precisely:
+
+1. Use an agent to check if the Github issue (a) is closed, (b) does not need to be deduped (eg. because it is broad product feedback without a specific solution, or positive feedback), or (c) already has a duplicates comment that you made earlier. If so, do not proceed.
+2. Use an agent to view a Github issue, and ask the agent to return a summary of the issue
+3. Then, launch 5 parallel agents to search Github for duplicates of this issue, using diverse keywords and search approaches, using the summary from #1
+4. Next, feed the results from #1 and #2 into another agent, so that it can filter out false positives, that are likely not actually duplicates of the original issue. If there are no duplicates remaining, do not proceed.
+5. Finally, comment back on the issue with a list of up to three duplicate issues (or zero, if there are no likely duplicates)
+
+Notes (be sure to tell this to your agents, too):
+
+- Use `gh` to interact with Github, rather than web fetch
+- Do not use other tools, beyond `gh` (eg. don't use other MCP servers, file edit, etc.)
+- Make a todo list first
+- For your comment, follow the following format precisely (assuming for this example that you found 3 suspected duplicates):
+
+---
+
+Found 3 possible duplicate issues:
+
+1. <link to issue>
+2. <link to issue>
+3. <link to issue>
+
+This issue will be automatically closed as a duplicate in 3 days.
+
+- If your issue is a duplicate, please close it and 👍 the existing issue instead
+- To prevent auto-closure, add a comment or 👎 this comment

+## Tagged Task Lists System Architecture
+
+**Data Structure**: Task Master now uses a tagged task lists system where the `tasks.json` file contains multiple named task lists as top-level keys:
+
+```json
+{
+  "master": {
+    "tasks": [/* standard task objects */]
+  },
+  "feature-branch": {
+    "tasks": [/* separate task context */]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Key Components:**
+
+- **Silent Migration**: Automatically transforms legacy `{"tasks": [...]}` format to tagged format `{"master": {"tasks": [...]}}` on first read
+- **Tag Resolution Layer**: Provides 100% backward compatibility by intercepting tagged format and returning legacy format to existing code
+- **Configuration Integration**: `global.defaultTag` and `tags` section in config.json manage tag system settings
+- **State Management**: `.taskmaster/state.json` tracks current tag, migration status, and tag-branch mappings
+- **Migration Notice**: User-friendly notification system for seamless migration experience
+
+**Backward Compatibility**: All existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged. The tag resolution layer ensures that existing code receives the expected legacy format while the underlying storage uses the new tagged structure.
 
 - **Data Flow and Module Dependencies (Updated)**:
 
-  - **CLI**: `bin/task-master.js` -> `scripts/dev.js` (loads `.env`) -> `scripts/modules/commands.js` -> Core Logic (`scripts/modules/*`) -> Unified AI Service (`ai-services-unified.js`) -> Provider Adapters -> LLM API.
-  - **MCP**: External Tool -> `mcp-server/server.js` -> Tool (`mcp-server/src/tools/*`) -> Direct Function (`mcp-server/src/core/direct-functions/*`) -> Core Logic (`scripts/modules/*`) -> Unified AI Service (`ai-services-unified.js`) -> Provider Adapters -> LLM API.
+  - **CLI**: `bin/task-master.js` -> `scripts/dev.js` (loads `.env`) -> `scripts/modules/commands.js` -> Core Logic (`scripts/modules/*`) -> **Tag Resolution Layer** -> Unified AI Service (`ai-services-unified.js`) -> Provider Adapters -> LLM API.

   - **Configuration**: Core logic needing non-AI settings calls `config-manager.js` getters (passing `session.env` via `explicitRoot` if from MCP). Unified AI Service internally calls `config-manager.js` getters (using `role`) for AI params and `utils.js` (`resolveEnvVariable` with `session.env`) for API keys.

+# Context Gathering Patterns and Utilities
+
+This document outlines the standardized patterns for gathering and processing context from multiple sources in Task Master commands, particularly for AI-powered features.
+
+## Core Context Gathering Utility
+
+The `ContextGatherer` class (`scripts/modules/utils/contextGatherer.js`) provides a centralized, reusable utility for extracting context from multiple sources:
+
+### **Key Features**
+- **Multi-source Context**: Tasks, files, custom text, project file tree
+- **Token Counting**: Detailed breakdown using `gpt-tokens` library
+- **Format Support**: Different output formats (research, chat, system-prompt)
+- **Error Handling**: Graceful handling of missing files, invalid task IDs
+- **Performance**: File size limits, depth limits for tree generation
+
+### **Usage Pattern**
+```javascript
+import { ContextGatherer } from '../utils/contextGatherer.js';
+
+// Initialize with project paths
+const gatherer = new ContextGatherer(projectRoot, tasksPath);
+
+// Gather context with detailed token breakdown
+const result = await gatherer.gather({
+    tasks: ['15', '16.2'],           // Task and subtask IDs
+    files: ['src/api.js', 'README.md'], // File paths
+    customContext: 'Additional context text',
+    includeProjectTree: true,        // Include file tree
+    format: 'research',              // Output format
+    includeTokenCounts: true         // Get detailed token breakdown
+});
+
+// Access results
+const contextString = result.context;
+const tokenBreakdown = result.tokenBreakdown;
+```
+
+### **Token Breakdown Structure**
+```javascript
+{
+    customContext: { tokens: 150, characters: 800 },
+    tasks: [
+        { id: '15', type: 'task', title: 'Task Title', tokens: 245, characters: 1200 },
+        { id: '16.2', type: 'subtask', title: 'Subtask Title', tokens: 180, characters: 900 }
+    ],
+    files: [
+        { path: 'src/api.js', tokens: 890, characters: 4500, size: '4.5 KB' }
+    ],
+    projectTree: { tokens: 320, characters: 1600 },
+    total: { tokens: 1785, characters: 8000 }
+}
+```
+
+## Fuzzy Search Integration
+
+The `FuzzyTaskSearch` class (`scripts/modules/utils/fuzzyTaskSearch.js`) provides intelligent task discovery:
+
+### **Key Features**
+- **Semantic Matching**: Uses Fuse.js for similarity scoring
+- **Purpose Categories**: Pattern-based task categorization
+- **Relevance Scoring**: High/medium/low relevance thresholds
+- **Context-Aware**: Different search configurations for different use cases
+
+### **Usage Pattern**
+```javascript
+import { FuzzyTaskSearch } from '../utils/fuzzyTaskSearch.js';
+
+// Initialize with tasks data and context
+const fuzzySearch = new FuzzyTaskSearch(tasksData.tasks, 'research');
+
+// Find relevant tasks
+const searchResults = fuzzySearch.findRelevantTasks(query, {
+    maxResults: 8,
+    includeRecent: true,
+    includeCategoryMatches: true
+});
+
+// Get task IDs for context gathering
+const taskIds = fuzzySearch.getTaskIds(searchResults);
+```
+
+## Implementation Patterns for Commands
+
+### **1. Context-Aware Command Structure**
+```javascript
+// In command action handler
+async function commandAction(prompt, options) {
+    // 1. Parameter validation and parsing
+    const taskIds = options.id ? parseTaskIds(options.id) : [];
+    const filePaths = options.files ? parseFilePaths(options.files) : [];
+    
+    // 2. Initialize context gatherer
+    const projectRoot = findProjectRoot() || '.';
+    const tasksPath = path.join(projectRoot, 'tasks', 'tasks.json');
+    const gatherer = new ContextGatherer(projectRoot, tasksPath);
+    
+    // 3. Auto-discover relevant tasks if none specified
+    if (taskIds.length === 0) {
+        const fuzzySearch = new FuzzyTaskSearch(tasksData.tasks, 'research');
+        const discoveredIds = fuzzySearch.getTaskIds(
+            fuzzySearch.findRelevantTasks(prompt)
+        );
+        taskIds.push(...discoveredIds);
+    }
+    
+    // 4. Gather context with token breakdown
+    const contextResult = await gatherer.gather({
+        tasks: taskIds,
+        files: filePaths,
+        customContext: options.context,
+        includeProjectTree: options.projectTree,
+        format: 'research',
+        includeTokenCounts: true
+    });
+    
+    // 5. Display token breakdown (for CLI)
+    if (outputFormat === 'text') {
+        displayDetailedTokenBreakdown(contextResult.tokenBreakdown);
+    }
+    
+    // 6. Use context in AI call
+    const aiResult = await generateTextService(role, session, systemPrompt, userPrompt);
+    
+    // 7. Display results with enhanced formatting
+    displayResults(aiResult, contextResult.tokenBreakdown);
+}
+```
+
+### **2. Token Display Pattern**
+```javascript
+function displayDetailedTokenBreakdown(tokenBreakdown, systemTokens, userTokens) {
+    const sections = [];
+    
+    // Build context breakdown
+    if (tokenBreakdown.tasks?.length > 0) {
+        const taskDetails = tokenBreakdown.tasks.map(task => 
+            `${task.type === 'subtask' ? '  ' : ''}${task.id}: ${task.tokens.toLocaleString()}`
+        ).join('\n');
+        sections.push(`Tasks (${tokenBreakdown.tasks.reduce((sum, t) => sum + t.tokens, 0).toLocaleString()}):\n${taskDetails}`);
+    }
+    
+    if (tokenBreakdown.files?.length > 0) {
+        const fileDetails = tokenBreakdown.files.map(file =>
+            `  ${file.path}: ${file.tokens.toLocaleString()} (${file.size})`
+        ).join('\n');
+        sections.push(`Files (${tokenBreakdown.files.reduce((sum, f) => sum + f.tokens, 0).toLocaleString()}):\n${fileDetails}`);
+    }
+    
+    // Add prompts breakdown
+    sections.push(`Prompts: system ${systemTokens.toLocaleString()}, user ${userTokens.toLocaleString()}`);
+    
+    // Display in clean box
+    const content = sections.join('\n\n');
+    console.log(boxen(content, {
+        title: chalk.cyan('Token Usage'),
+        padding: { top: 1, bottom: 1, left: 2, right: 2 },
+        borderStyle: 'round',
+        borderColor: 'cyan'
+    }));
+}
+```
+
+### **3. Enhanced Result Display Pattern**
+```javascript
+function displayResults(result, query, detailLevel, tokenBreakdown) {
+    // Header with query info
+    const header = boxen(
+        chalk.green.bold('Research Results') + '\n\n' +
+        chalk.gray('Query: ') + chalk.white(query) + '\n' +
+        chalk.gray('Detail Level: ') + chalk.cyan(detailLevel),
+        {
+            padding: { top: 1, bottom: 1, left: 2, right: 2 },
+            margin: { top: 1, bottom: 0 },
+            borderStyle: 'round',
+            borderColor: 'green'
+        }
+    );
+    console.log(header);
+    
+    // Process and highlight code blocks
+    const processedResult = processCodeBlocks(result);
+    
+    // Main content in clean box
+    const contentBox = boxen(processedResult, {
+        padding: { top: 1, bottom: 1, left: 2, right: 2 },
+        margin: { top: 0, bottom: 1 },
+        borderStyle: 'single',
+        borderColor: 'gray'
+    });
+    console.log(contentBox);
+    
+    console.log(chalk.green('✓ Research complete'));
+}
+```
+
+## Code Block Enhancement
+
+### **Syntax Highlighting Pattern**
+```javascript
+import { highlight } from 'cli-highlight';
+
+function processCodeBlocks(text) {
+    return text.replace(/```(\w+)?\n([\s\S]*?)```/g, (match, language, code) => {
+        try {
+            const highlighted = highlight(code.trim(), { 
+                language: language || 'javascript',
+                theme: 'default'
+            });
+            return `\n${highlighted}\n`;
+        } catch (error) {
+            return `\n${code.trim()}\n`;
+        }
+    });
+}
+```
+
+## Integration Guidelines
+
+### **When to Use Context Gathering**
+- ✅ **DO**: Use for AI-powered commands that benefit from project context
+- ✅ **DO**: Use when users might want to reference specific tasks or files
+- ✅ **DO**: Use for research, analysis, or generation commands
+- ❌ **DON'T**: Use for simple CRUD operations that don't need AI context
+
+### **Performance Considerations**
+- ✅ **DO**: Set reasonable file size limits (50KB default)
+- ✅ **DO**: Limit project tree depth (3-5 levels)
+- ✅ **DO**: Provide token counts to help users understand context size
+- ✅ **DO**: Allow users to control what context is included
+
+### **Error Handling**
+- ✅ **DO**: Gracefully handle missing files with warnings
+- ✅ **DO**: Validate task IDs and provide helpful error messages
+- ✅ **DO**: Continue processing even if some context sources fail
+- ✅ **DO**: Provide fallback behavior when context gathering fails
+
+### **Future Command Integration**
+Commands that should consider adopting this pattern:
+- `analyze-complexity` - Could benefit from file context
+- `expand-task` - Could use related task context
+- `update-task` - Could reference similar tasks for consistency
+- `add-task` - Could use project context for better task generation
+
+## Export Patterns
+
+### **Context Gatherer Module**
+```javascript
+export {
+    ContextGatherer,
+    createContextGatherer  // Factory function
+};
+```
+
+### **Fuzzy Search Module**
+```javascript
+export {
+    FuzzyTaskSearch,
+    PURPOSE_CATEGORIES,
+    RELEVANCE_THRESHOLDS
+};
+```
+
+This context gathering system provides a foundation for building more intelligent, context-aware commands that can leverage project knowledge to provide better AI-powered assistance.

-This guide outlines the typical process for using Task Master to manage software development projects.
+# Taskmaster Development Workflow
+
+This guide outlines the standard process for using Taskmaster to manage software development projects. It is written as a set of instructions for you, the AI agent.
+
+- **Your Default Stance**: For most projects, the user can work directly within the `master` task context. Your initial actions should operate on this default context unless a clear pattern for multi-context work emerges.
+- **Your Goal**: Your role is to elevate the user's workflow by intelligently introducing advanced features like **Tagged Task Lists** when you detect the appropriate context. Do not force tags on the user; suggest them as a helpful solution to a specific need.
+
+## The Basic Loop
+The fundamental development cycle you will facilitate is:
+1.  **`list`**: Show the user what needs to be done.
+2.  **`next`**: Help the user decide what to work on.
+3.  **`show <id>`**: Provide details for a specific task.
+4.  **`expand <id>`**: Break down a complex task into smaller, manageable subtasks.
+5.  **Implement**: The user writes the code and tests.
+6.  **`update-subtask`**: Log progress and findings on behalf of the user.
+7.  **`set-status`**: Mark tasks and subtasks as `done` as work is completed.
+8.  **Repeat**.
+
+All your standard command executions should operate on the user's current task context, which defaults to `master`.
+
+---
+
+## Standard Development Workflow Process
+
+### Simple Workflow (Default Starting Point)
+
+For new projects or when users are getting started, operate within the `master` tag context:
+
+-   Start new projects by running `initialize_project` tool / `task-master init` or `parse_prd` / `task-master parse-prd --input='<prd-file.txt>'` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)) to generate initial tasks.json with tagged structure
+-   Configure rule sets during initialization with `--rules` flag (e.g., `task-master init --rules cursor,windsurf`) or manage them later with `task-master rules add/remove` commands  
+-   Begin coding sessions with `get_tasks` / `task-master list` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)) to see current tasks, status, and IDs
+-   Determine the next task to work on using `next_task` / `task-master next` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc))
+-   Analyze task complexity with `analyze_project_complexity` / `task-master analyze-complexity --research` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)) before breaking down tasks
+-   Review complexity report using `complexity_report` / `task-master complexity-report` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc))
+-   Select tasks based on dependencies (all marked 'done'), priority level, and ID order
+-   View specific task details using `get_task` / `task-master show <id>` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)) to understand implementation requirements
+-   Break down complex tasks using `expand_task` / `task-master expand --id=<id> --force --research` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)) with appropriate flags like `--force` (to replace existing subtasks) and `--research`
+-   Implement code following task details, dependencies, and project standards
+-   Mark completed tasks with `set_task_status` / `task-master set-status --id=<id> --status=done` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc))
+-   Update dependent tasks when implementation differs from original plan using `update` / `task-master update --from=<id> --prompt="..."` or `update_task` / `task-master update-task --id=<id> --prompt="..."` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc))
+
+---
+
+## Leveling Up: Agent-Led Multi-Context Workflows
+
+While the basic workflow is powerful, your primary opportunity to add value is by identifying when to introduce **Tagged Task Lists**. These patterns are your tools for creating a more organized and efficient development environment for the user, especially if you detect agentic or parallel development happening across the same session.
+
+**Critical Principle**: Most users should never see a difference in their experience. Only introduce advanced workflows when you detect clear indicators that the project has evolved beyond simple task management.
+
+### When to Introduce Tags: Your Decision Patterns
+
+Here are the patterns to look for. When you detect one, you should propose the corresponding workflow to the user.
+
+#### Pattern 1: Simple Git Feature Branching
+This is the most common and direct use case for tags.
+
+- **Trigger**: The user creates a new git branch (e.g., `git checkout -b feature/user-auth`).
+- **Your Action**: Propose creating a new tag that mirrors the branch name to isolate the feature's tasks from `master`.
+- **Your Suggested Prompt**: *"I see you've created a new branch named 'feature/user-auth'. To keep all related tasks neatly organized and separate from your main list, I can create a corresponding task tag for you. This helps prevent merge conflicts in your `tasks.json` file later. Shall I create the 'feature-user-auth' tag?"*
+- **Tool to Use**: `task-master add-tag --from-branch`
+
+#### Pattern 2: Team Collaboration
+- **Trigger**: The user mentions working with teammates (e.g., "My teammate Alice is handling the database schema," or "I need to review Bob's work on the API.").
+- **Your Action**: Suggest creating a separate tag for the user's work to prevent conflicts with shared master context.
+- **Your Suggested Prompt**: *"Since you're working with Alice, I can create a separate task context for your work to avoid conflicts. This way, Alice can continue working with the master list while you have your own isolated context. When you're ready to merge your work, we can coordinate the tasks back to master. Shall I create a tag for your current work?"*
+- **Tool to Use**: `task-master add-tag my-work --copy-from-current --description="My tasks while collaborating with Alice"`
+
+#### Pattern 3: Experiments or Risky Refactors
+- **Trigger**: The user wants to try something that might not be kept (e.g., "I want to experiment with switching our state management library," or "Let's refactor the old API module, but I want to keep the current tasks as a reference.").
+- **Your Action**: Propose creating a sandboxed tag for the experimental work.
+- **Your Suggested Prompt**: *"This sounds like a great experiment. To keep these new tasks separate from our main plan, I can create a temporary 'experiment-zustand' tag for this work. If we decide not to proceed, we can simply delete the tag without affecting the main task list. Sound good?"*
+- **Tool to Use**: `task-master add-tag experiment-zustand --description="Exploring Zustand migration"`
+
+#### Pattern 4: Large Feature Initiatives (PRD-Driven)
+This is a more structured approach for significant new features or epics.
+
+- **Trigger**: The user describes a large, multi-step feature that would benefit from a formal plan.
+- **Your Action**: Propose a comprehensive, PRD-driven workflow.
+- **Your Suggested Prompt**: *"This sounds like a significant new feature. To manage this effectively, I suggest we create a dedicated task context for it. Here's the plan: I'll create a new tag called 'feature-xyz', then we can draft a Product Requirements Document (PRD) together to scope the work. Once the PRD is ready, I'll automatically generate all the necessary tasks within that new tag. How does that sound?"*
+- **Your Implementation Flow**:
+    1.  **Create an empty tag**: `task-master add-tag feature-xyz --description "Tasks for the new XYZ feature"`. You can also start by creating a git branch if applicable, and then create the tag from that branch.
+    2.  **Collaborate & Create PRD**: Work with the user to create a detailed PRD file (e.g., `.taskmaster/docs/feature-xyz-prd.txt`).
+    3.  **Parse PRD into the new tag**: `task-master parse-prd .taskmaster/docs/feature-xyz-prd.txt --tag feature-xyz`
+    4.  **Prepare the new task list**: Follow up by suggesting `analyze-complexity` and `expand-all` for the newly created tasks within the `feature-xyz` tag.
+
+#### Pattern 5: Version-Based Development
+Tailor your approach based on the project maturity indicated by tag names.
+
+- **Prototype/MVP Tags** (`prototype`, `mvp`, `poc`, `v0.x`):
+  - **Your Approach**: Focus on speed and functionality over perfection
+  - **Task Generation**: Create tasks that emphasize "get it working" over "get it perfect"
+  - **Complexity Level**: Lower complexity, fewer subtasks, more direct implementation paths
+  - **Research Prompts**: Include context like "This is a prototype - prioritize speed and basic functionality over optimization"
+  - **Example Prompt Addition**: *"Since this is for the MVP, I'll focus on tasks that get core functionality working quickly rather than over-engineering."*
+
+- **Production/Mature Tags** (`v1.0+`, `production`, `stable`):
+  - **Your Approach**: Emphasize robustness, testing, and maintainability
+  - **Task Generation**: Include comprehensive error handling, testing, documentation, and optimization
+  - **Complexity Level**: Higher complexity, more detailed subtasks, thorough implementation paths
+  - **Research Prompts**: Include context like "This is for production - prioritize reliability, performance, and maintainability"
+  - **Example Prompt Addition**: *"Since this is for production, I'll ensure tasks include proper error handling, testing, and documentation."*
+
+### Advanced Workflow (Tag-Based & PRD-Driven)
+
+**When to Transition**: Recognize when the project has evolved (or has initiated a project which existing code) beyond simple task management. Look for these indicators:
+- User mentions teammates or collaboration needs
+- Project has grown to 15+ tasks with mixed priorities
+- User creates feature branches or mentions major initiatives
+- User initializes Taskmaster on an existing, complex codebase
+- User describes large features that would benefit from dedicated planning
+
+**Your Role in Transition**: Guide the user to a more sophisticated workflow that leverages tags for organization and PRDs for comprehensive planning.
+
+#### Master List Strategy (High-Value Focus)
+Once you transition to tag-based workflows, the `master` tag should ideally contain only:
+- **High-level deliverables** that provide significant business value
+- **Major milestones** and epic-level features
+- **Critical infrastructure** work that affects the entire project
+- **Release-blocking** items
+
+**What NOT to put in master**:
+- Detailed implementation subtasks (these go in feature-specific tags' parent tasks)
+- Refactoring work (create dedicated tags like `refactor-auth`)
+- Experimental features (use `experiment-*` tags)
+- Team member-specific tasks (use person-specific tags)
+
+#### PRD-Driven Feature Development
+
+**For New Major Features**:
+1. **Identify the Initiative**: When user describes a significant feature
+2. **Create Dedicated Tag**: `add_tag feature-[name] --description="[Feature description]"`
+3. **Collaborative PRD Creation**: Work with user to create comprehensive PRD in `.taskmaster/docs/feature-[name]-prd.txt`
+4. **Parse & Prepare**: 
+   - `parse_prd .taskmaster/docs/feature-[name]-prd.txt --tag=feature-[name]`
+   - `analyze_project_complexity --tag=feature-[name] --research`
+   - `expand_all --tag=feature-[name] --research`
+5. **Add Master Reference**: Create a high-level task in `master` that references the feature tag
+
+**For Existing Codebase Analysis**:
+When users initialize Taskmaster on existing projects:
+1. **Codebase Discovery**: Use your native tools for producing deep context about the code base. You may use `research` tool with `--tree` and `--files` to collect up to date information using the existing architecture as context.
+2. **Collaborative Assessment**: Work with user to identify improvement areas, technical debt, or new features
+3. **Strategic PRD Creation**: Co-author PRDs that include:
+   - Current state analysis (based on your codebase research)
+   - Proposed improvements or new features
+   - Implementation strategy considering existing code
+4. **Tag-Based Organization**: Parse PRDs into appropriate tags (`refactor-api`, `feature-dashboard`, `tech-debt`, etc.)
+5. **Master List Curation**: Keep only the most valuable initiatives in master
+
+The parse-prd's `--append` flag enables the user to parse multiple PRDs within tags or across tags. PRDs should be focused and the number of tasks they are parsed into should be strategically chosen relative to the PRD's complexity and level of detail.
+
+### Workflow Transition Examples
+
+**Example 1: Simple → Team-Based**
+```
+User: "Alice is going to help with the API work"
+Your Response: "Great! To avoid conflicts, I'll create a separate task context for your work. Alice can continue with the master list while you work in your own context. When you're ready to merge, we can coordinate the tasks back together."
+Action: add_tag my-api-work --copy-from-current --description="My API tasks while collaborating with Alice"
+```
+
+**Example 2: Simple → PRD-Driven**
+```
+User: "I want to add a complete user dashboard with analytics, user management, and reporting"
+Your Response: "This sounds like a major feature that would benefit from detailed planning. Let me create a dedicated context for this work and we can draft a PRD together to ensure we capture all requirements."
+Actions: 
+1. add_tag feature-dashboard --description="User dashboard with analytics and management"
+2. Collaborate on PRD creation
+3. parse_prd dashboard-prd.txt --tag=feature-dashboard
+4. Add high-level "User Dashboard" task to master
+```
+
+**Example 3: Existing Project → Strategic Planning**
+```
+User: "I just initialized Taskmaster on my existing React app. It's getting messy and I want to improve it."
+Your Response: "Let me research your codebase to understand the current architecture, then we can create a strategic plan for improvements."
+Actions:
+1. research "Current React app architecture and improvement opportunities" --tree --files=src/
+2. Collaborate on improvement PRD based on findings
+3. Create tags for different improvement areas (refactor-components, improve-state-management, etc.)
+4. Keep only major improvement initiatives in master
+```

--   Begin coding sessions with `get_tasks` / `task-master list` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)) to see current tasks, status, and IDs
--   Determine the next task to work on using `next_task` / `task-master next` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)).
--   Analyze task complexity with `analyze_project_complexity` / `task-master analyze-complexity --research` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)) before breaking down tasks
--   Review complexity report using `complexity_report` / `task-master complexity-report` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)).
--   Select tasks based on dependencies (all marked 'done'), priority level, and ID order
--   Clarify tasks by checking task files in tasks/ directory or asking for user input
--   View specific task details using `get_task` / `task-master show <id>` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)) to understand implementation requirements
--   Break down complex tasks using `expand_task` / `task-master expand --id=<id> --force --research` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)) with appropriate flags like `--force` (to replace existing subtasks) and `--research`.
--   Clear existing subtasks if needed using `clear_subtasks` / `task-master clear-subtasks --id=<id>` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)) before regenerating
--   Implement code following task details, dependencies, and project standards
--   Verify tasks according to test strategies before marking as complete (See [`tests.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/tests.mdc))
--   Mark completed tasks with `set_task_status` / `task-master set-status --id=<id> --status=done` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc))
--   Update dependent tasks when implementation differs from original plan using `update` / `task-master update --from=<id> --prompt="..."` or `update_task` / `task-master update-task --id=<id> --prompt="..."` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc))
--   Add new tasks discovered during implementation using `add_task` / `task-master add-task --prompt="..." --research` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)).
--   Add new subtasks as needed using `add_subtask` / `task-master add-subtask --parent=<id> --title="..."` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)).

+- **Data Structure**: Tasks are organized into separate contexts (tags) like "master", "feature-branch", or "v2.0".
+- **Silent Migration**: Existing projects automatically migrate to use a "master" tag with zero disruption.
+- **Context Isolation**: Tasks in different tags are completely separate. Changes in one tag do not affect any other tag.
+- **Manual Control**: The user is always in control. There is no automatic switching. You facilitate switching by using `use-tag <name>`.
+- **Full CLI & MCP Support**: All tag management commands are available through both the CLI and MCP tools for you to use. Refer to [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc) for a full command list.

+# Git Workflow with Task Master Integration
+
+## **Branch Strategy**
+
+### **Main Branch Protection**
+- **main** branch contains production-ready code
+- All feature development happens on task-specific branches
+- Direct commits to main are prohibited
+- All changes merge via Pull Requests
+
+### **Task Branch Naming**
+```bash
+# ✅ DO: Use consistent task branch naming
+task-001  # For Task 1
+task-004  # For Task 4
+task-015  # For Task 15
+
+# ❌ DON'T: Use inconsistent naming

+## **Tagged Task Lists Integration**
+
+Task Master's **tagged task lists system** provides significant benefits for Git workflows:
+
+### **Multi-Context Development**
+- **Branch-Specific Tasks**: Each branch can have its own task context using tags
+- **Merge Conflict Prevention**: Tasks in different tags are completely isolated
+- **Context Switching**: Seamlessly switch between different development contexts
+- **Parallel Development**: Multiple team members can work on separate task contexts
+
+### **Migration and Compatibility**
+- **Seamless Migration**: Existing projects automatically migrate to use a "master" tag
+- **Zero Disruption**: All existing Git workflows continue unchanged
+- **Backward Compatibility**: Legacy projects work exactly as before
+
+### **Manual Git Integration**
+- **Manual Tag Creation**: Use `--from-branch` option to create tags from current git branch
+- **Manual Context Switching**: Explicitly switch tag contexts as needed for different branches
+- **Simplified Integration**: Focused on manual control rather than automatic workflows

+
+## **Complete Task Development Workflow**
+
+### **Phase 1: Task Preparation**
+```bash
+# 1. Ensure you're on main branch and pull latest
+git checkout main
+git pull origin main
+
+# 2. Check current branch status
+git branch  # Verify you're on main
+
+# 3. Create task-specific branch
+git checkout -b task-004  # For Task 4
+
+# 4. Set task status in Task Master (tasks automatically use current tag context)
+# Use: set_task_status tool or `task-master set-status --id=4 --status=in-progress`
+```
+
+### **Phase 2: Task Analysis & Planning**
+```bash
+# 5. Get task context and expand if needed (uses current tag automatically)
+# Use: get_task tool or `task-master show 4`
+# Use: expand_task tool or `task-master expand --id=4 --research --force` (if complex)
+
+# 6. Identify next subtask to work on
+# Use: next_task tool or `task-master next`
+```
+
+### **Phase 3: Subtask Implementation Loop**
+For each subtask, follow this pattern:
+
+```bash
+# 7. Mark subtask as in-progress
+# Use: set_task_status tool or `task-master set-status --id=4.1 --status=in-progress`
+
+# 8. Gather context and research (if needed)
+# Use: update_subtask tool with research flag or:
+# `task-master update-subtask --id=4.1 --prompt="Research findings..." --research`
+
+# 9. Collect code context through AI exploration
+# Document findings in subtask using update_subtask
+
+# 10. Implement the subtask
+# Write code, tests, documentation
+
+# 11. Update subtask with completion details
+# Use: update_subtask tool or:
+# `task-master update-subtask --id=4.1 --prompt="Implementation complete..."`
+
+# 12. Mark subtask as done
+# Use: set_task_status tool or `task-master set-status --id=4.1 --status=done`
+
+# 13. Commit the subtask implementation
+git add .
+git commit -m "feat(task-4): Complete subtask 4.1 - [Subtask Title]
+
+- Implementation details
+- Key changes made
+- Any important notes
+
+Subtask 4.1: [Brief description of what was accomplished]
+Relates to Task 4: [Main task title]"
+```
+
+### **Phase 4: Task Completion**
+```bash
+# 14. When all subtasks are complete, run final testing
+# Create test file if needed, ensure all tests pass
+npm test  # or jest, or manual testing
+
+# 15. If tests were added/modified, commit them
+git add .
+git commit -m "test(task-4): Add comprehensive tests for Task 4
+
+- Unit tests for core functionality
+- Integration tests for API endpoints
+- All tests passing
+
+Task 4: [Main task title] - Testing complete"
+
+# 16. Push the task branch
+git push origin task-004
+
+# 17. Create Pull Request
+# Title: "Task 4: [Task Title]"
+# Description should include:
+# - Task overview
+# - Subtasks completed
+# - Testing approach
+# - Any breaking changes or considerations
+```
+
+### **Phase 5: PR Merge & Cleanup**
+```bash
+# 18. Human reviews and merges PR into main
+
+# 19. Switch back to main and pull merged changes
+git checkout main
+git pull origin main
+
+# 20. Delete the feature branch (optional cleanup)
+git branch -d task-004
+git push origin --delete task-004
+```
+
+## **Commit Message Standards**
+
+### **Subtask Commits**
+```bash
+# ✅ DO: Consistent subtask commit format
+git commit -m "feat(task-4): Complete subtask 4.1 - Initialize Express server
+
+- Set up Express.js with TypeScript configuration
+- Added CORS and body parsing middleware
+- Implemented health check endpoints
+- Basic error handling middleware
+
+Subtask 4.1: Initialize project with npm and install dependencies
+Relates to Task 4: Setup Express.js Server Project"
+
+# ❌ DON'T: Vague or inconsistent commits
+git commit -m "fixed stuff"
+git commit -m "working on task"
+```
+
+### **Test Commits**
+```bash
+# ✅ DO: Separate test commits when substantial
+git commit -m "test(task-4): Add comprehensive tests for Express server setup
+
+- Unit tests for middleware configuration
+- Integration tests for health check endpoints
+- Mock tests for database connection
+- All tests passing with 95% coverage
+
+Task 4: Setup Express.js Server Project - Testing complete"
+```
+
+### **Commit Type Prefixes**
+- `feat(task-X):` - New feature implementation
+- `fix(task-X):` - Bug fixes
+- `test(task-X):` - Test additions/modifications
+- `docs(task-X):` - Documentation updates
+- `refactor(task-X):` - Code refactoring
+- `chore(task-X):` - Build/tooling changes
+
+## **Task Master Commands Integration**
+
+### **Essential Commands for Git Workflow**
+```bash
+# Task management (uses current tag context automatically)
+task-master show <id>           # Get task/subtask details
+task-master next                # Find next task to work on
+task-master set-status --id=<id> --status=<status>
+task-master update-subtask --id=<id> --prompt="..." --research
+
+# Task expansion (for complex tasks)
+task-master expand --id=<id> --research --force
+
+# Progress tracking
+task-master list                # View all tasks and status
+task-master list --status=in-progress  # View active tasks
+```
+
+### **MCP Tool Equivalents**
+When using Cursor or other MCP-integrated tools:
+- `get_task` instead of `task-master show`
+- `next_task` instead of `task-master next`
+- `set_task_status` instead of `task-master set-status`
+- `update_subtask` instead of `task-master update-subtask`
+
+## **Branch Management Rules**
+
+### **Branch Protection**
+```bash
+# ✅ DO: Always work on task branches
+git checkout -b task-005
+# Make changes
+git commit -m "..."
+git push origin task-005
+
+# ❌ DON'T: Commit directly to main
+git checkout main
+git commit -m "..."  # NEVER do this
+```
+
+### **Keeping Branches Updated**
+```bash
+# ✅ DO: Regularly sync with main (for long-running tasks)
+git checkout task-005
+git fetch origin
+git rebase origin/main  # or merge if preferred
+
+# Resolve any conflicts and continue
+```
+
+## **Pull Request Guidelines**
+
+### **PR Title Format**
+```
+Task <ID>: <Task Title>
+
+Examples:
+Task 4: Setup Express.js Server Project
+Task 7: Implement User Authentication
+Task 12: Add Stripe Payment Integration
+```
+
+### **PR Description Template**
+```markdown
+## Task Overview
+Brief description of the main task objective.
+
+## Subtasks Completed
+- [x] 4.1: Initialize project with npm and install dependencies
+- [x] 4.2: Configure TypeScript, ESLint and Prettier

+
+## Related Tasks
+Mention any dependent tasks or follow-up work needed.
+```
+
+## **Conflict Resolution**
+
+### **Task Conflicts with Tagged System**
+```bash
+# With tagged task lists, merge conflicts are significantly reduced:
+# 1. Different branches can use different tag contexts
+# 2. Tasks in separate tags are completely isolated
+# 3. Use Task Master's move functionality to reorganize if needed
+
+# Manual git integration available:
+# - Use `task-master add-tag --from-branch` to create tags from current branch
+# - Manually switch contexts with `task-master use-tag <name>`
+# - Simple, predictable workflow without automatic behavior
+```
+
+### **Code Conflicts**
+```bash
+# Standard Git conflict resolution
+git fetch origin
+git rebase origin/main
+# Resolve conflicts in files
+git add .
+git rebase --continue
+```
+
+## **Emergency Procedures**
+
+### **Hotfixes**
+```bash
+# For urgent production fixes:
+git checkout main
+git pull origin main
+git checkout -b hotfix-urgent-issue
+
+# Make minimal fix
+git commit -m "hotfix: Fix critical production issue
+
+- Specific fix description
+- Minimal impact change
+- Requires immediate deployment"
+
+git push origin hotfix-urgent-issue
+# Create emergency PR for immediate review
+```
+
+### **Task Abandonment**
+```bash
+# If task needs to be abandoned or significantly changed:
+# 1. Update task status
+task-master set-status --id=<id> --status=cancelled
+
+# 2. Clean up branch
+git checkout main
+git branch -D task-<id>
+git push origin --delete task-<id>
+
+# 3. Document reasoning in task
+task-master update-task --id=<id> --prompt="Task cancelled due to..."
+```
+
+## **Tagged System Benefits for Git Workflows**
+
+### **Multi-Team Development**
+- **Isolated Contexts**: Different teams can work on separate tag contexts without conflicts
+- **Feature Branches**: Each feature branch can have its own task context
+- **Release Management**: Separate tags for different release versions or environments
+
+### **Merge Conflict Prevention**
+- **Context Separation**: Tasks in different tags don't interfere with each other
+- **Clean Merges**: Reduced likelihood of task-related merge conflicts
+- **Parallel Development**: Multiple developers can work simultaneously without task conflicts
+
+### **Manual Git Integration**
+- **Branch-Based Tag Creation**: Use `--from-branch` option to create tags from current git branch
+- **Manual Context Management**: Explicitly switch tag contexts as needed
+- **Predictable Workflow**: Simple, manual control without automatic behavior

 The standard pattern for adding a feature follows this workflow:
 
 1. **Core Logic**: Implement the business logic in the appropriate module (e.g., [`task-manager.js`](mdc:scripts/modules/task-manager.js)).
-2. **AI Integration (If Applicable)**: 
+2. **Context Gathering (If Applicable)**: 
+   - For AI-powered commands that benefit from project context, use the standardized context gathering patterns from [`context_gathering.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/context_gathering.mdc).
+   - Import `ContextGatherer` and `FuzzyTaskSearch` utilities for reusable context extraction.
+   - Support multiple context types: tasks, files, custom text, project tree.
+   - Implement detailed token breakdown display for transparency.
+3. **AI Integration (If Applicable)**: 
    - Import necessary service functions (e.g., `generateTextService`, `streamTextService`) from [`ai-services-unified.js`](mdc:scripts/modules/ai-services-unified.js).
    - Prepare parameters (`role`, `session`, `systemPrompt`, `prompt`).
    - Call the service function.
    - Handle the response (direct text or stream object).
    - **Important**: Prefer `generateTextService` for calls sending large context (like stringified JSON) where incremental display is not needed. See [`ai_services.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/ai_services.mdc) for detailed usage patterns and cautions.
-3. **UI Components**: Add any display functions to [`ui.js`](mdc:scripts/modules/ui.js) following [`ui.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/ui.mdc).
-4. **Command Integration**: Add the CLI command to [`commands.js`](mdc:scripts/modules/commands.js) following [`commands.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/commands.mdc).
-5. **Testing**: Write tests for all components of the feature (following [`tests.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/tests.mdc))
-6. **Configuration**: Update configuration settings or add new ones in [`config-manager.js`](mdc:scripts/modules/config-manager.js) and ensure getters/setters are appropriate. Update documentation in [`utilities.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/utilities.mdc) and [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc). Update the `.taskmasterconfig` structure if needed.

+# Tagged Task Lists Command Patterns
+
+This document outlines the standardized patterns that **ALL** Task Master commands must follow to properly support the tagged task lists system.
+
+## Core Principles
+
+- **Every command** that reads or writes tasks.json must be tag-aware
+- **Consistent tag resolution** across all commands using `getCurrentTag(projectRoot)`
+- **Proper context passing** to core functions with `{ projectRoot, tag }`
+- **Standardized CLI options** with `--tag <tag>` flag
+
+## Required Imports
+
+All command files must import `getCurrentTag`:
+
+```javascript
+// ✅ DO: Import getCurrentTag in commands.js
+import { 
+  log, 
+  readJSON, 
+  writeJSON, 
+  findProjectRoot, 
+  getCurrentTag 
+} from './utils.js';
+
+// ✅ DO: Import getCurrentTag in task-manager files
+import { 
+  readJSON, 
+  writeJSON, 
+  getCurrentTag 
+} from '../utils.js';
+```
+
+## CLI Command Pattern
+
+Every CLI command that operates on tasks must follow this exact pattern:
+
+```javascript
+// ✅ DO: Standard tag-aware CLI command pattern
+programInstance
+  .command('command-name')
+  .description('Command description')
+  .option('-f, --file <file>', 'Path to the tasks file', TASKMASTER_TASKS_FILE)
+  .option('--tag <tag>', 'Specify tag context for task operations') // REQUIRED
+  .action(async (options) => {
+    // 1. Find project root
+    const projectRoot = findProjectRoot();
+    if (!projectRoot) {
+      console.error(chalk.red('Error: Could not find project root.'));
+      process.exit(1);
+    }
+
+    // 2. Resolve tag using standard pattern
+    const tag = options.tag || getCurrentTag(projectRoot) || 'master';
+
+    // 3. Call core function with proper context
+    await coreFunction(
+      tasksPath,
+      // ... other parameters ...
+      { projectRoot, tag } // REQUIRED context object
+    );
+  });
+```
+
+## Core Function Pattern
+
+All core functions in `scripts/modules/task-manager/` must follow this pattern:
+
+```javascript
+// ✅ DO: Standard tag-aware core function pattern
+async function coreFunction(
+  tasksPath,
+  // ... other parameters ...
+  context = {} // REQUIRED context parameter
+) {
+  const { projectRoot, tag } = context;
+  
+  // Use tag-aware readJSON/writeJSON
+  const data = readJSON(tasksPath, projectRoot, tag);
+  
+  // ... function logic ...
+  
+  writeJSON(tasksPath, data, projectRoot, tag);
+}
+```
+
+## Tag Resolution Priority
+
+The tag resolution follows this exact priority order:
+
+1. **Explicit `--tag` flag**: `options.tag`
+2. **Current active tag**: `getCurrentTag(projectRoot)`  
+3. **Default fallback**: `'master'`
+
+```javascript
+// ✅ DO: Standard tag resolution pattern
+const tag = options.tag || getCurrentTag(projectRoot) || 'master';
+```
+
+## Commands Requiring Updates
+
+### High Priority (Core Task Operations)
+- [x] `add-task` - ✅ Fixed
+- [x] `list` - ✅ Fixed  
+- [x] `update-task` - ✅ Fixed
+- [x] `update-subtask` - ✅ Fixed
+- [x] `set-status` - ✅ Already correct
+- [x] `remove-task` - ✅ Already correct
+- [x] `remove-subtask` - ✅ Fixed
+- [x] `add-subtask` - ✅ Already correct
+- [x] `clear-subtasks` - ✅ Fixed
+- [x] `move-task` - ✅ Already correct
+
+### Medium Priority (Analysis & Expansion)
+- [x] `expand` - ✅ Fixed
+- [ ] `next` - ✅ Fixed
+- [ ] `show` (get-task) - Needs checking
+- [ ] `analyze-complexity` - Needs checking
+- [ ] `generate` - ✅ Fixed
+
+### Lower Priority (Utilities)
+- [ ] `research` - Needs checking
+- [ ] `complexity-report` - Needs checking
+- [ ] `validate-dependencies` - ✅ Fixed
+- [ ] `fix-dependencies` - ✅ Fixed
+- [ ] `add-dependency` - ✅ Fixed
+- [ ] `remove-dependency` - ✅ Fixed
+
+## MCP Integration Pattern
+
+MCP direct functions must also follow the tag-aware pattern:
+
+```javascript
+// ✅ DO: Tag-aware MCP direct function
+export async function coreActionDirect(args, log, context = {}) {
+  const { session } = context;
+  const { projectRoot, tag } = args; // MCP passes these in args
+  
+  try {
+    const result = await coreAction(
+      tasksPath,
+      // ... other parameters ...
+      { projectRoot, tag, session, mcpLog: logWrapper }
+    );
+    
+    return { success: true, data: result };
+  } catch (error) {
+    return { success: false, error: { code: 'ERROR_CODE', message: error.message } };
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## File Generation Tag-Aware Naming
+
+The `generate` command must use tag-aware file naming:
+
+```javascript
+// ✅ DO: Tag-aware file naming
+const taskFileName = targetTag === 'master' 
+  ? `task_${task.id.toString().padStart(3, '0')}.txt`
+  : `task_${task.id.toString().padStart(3, '0')}_${targetTag}.txt`;
+```
+
+**Examples:**
+- Master tag: `task_001.txt`, `task_002.txt`
+- Other tags: `task_001_feature.txt`, `task_002_feature.txt`
+
+## Common Anti-Patterns
+
+```javascript
+// ❌ DON'T: Missing getCurrentTag import
+import { readJSON, writeJSON } from '../utils.js'; // Missing getCurrentTag
+
+// ❌ DON'T: Hard-coded tag resolution
+const tag = options.tag || 'master'; // Missing getCurrentTag
+
+// ❌ DON'T: Missing --tag option
+.option('-f, --file <file>', 'Path to tasks file') // Missing --tag option
+
+// ❌ DON'T: Missing context parameter
+await coreFunction(tasksPath, param1, param2); // Missing { projectRoot, tag }
+
+// ❌ DON'T: Incorrect readJSON/writeJSON calls
+const data = readJSON(tasksPath); // Missing projectRoot and tag
+writeJSON(tasksPath, data); // Missing projectRoot and tag
+```
+
+## Validation Checklist
+
+For each command, verify:
+
+- [ ] Imports `getCurrentTag` from utils.js
+- [ ] Has `--tag <tag>` CLI option
+- [ ] Uses standard tag resolution: `options.tag || getCurrentTag(projectRoot) || 'master'`
+- [ ] Finds `projectRoot` with error handling
+- [ ] Passes `{ projectRoot, tag }` context to core functions
+- [ ] Core functions accept and use context parameter
+- [ ] Uses `readJSON(tasksPath, projectRoot, tag)` and `writeJSON(tasksPath, data, projectRoot, tag)`
+
+## Testing Tag Resolution
+
+Test each command with:
+
+```bash
+# Test with explicit tag
+node bin/task-master command-name --tag test-tag
+
+# Test with active tag (should use current active tag)
+node bin/task-master use-tag test-tag
+node bin/task-master command-name
+
+# Test with master tag (default)
+node bin/task-master use-tag master  
+node bin/task-master command-name
+```
+
+## Migration Strategy
+
+1. **Audit Phase**: Systematically check each command against the checklist
+2. **Fix Phase**: Apply the standard patterns to non-compliant commands
+3. **Test Phase**: Verify tag resolution works correctly
+4. **Document Phase**: Update command documentation with tag support
+
+This ensures consistent, predictable behavior across all Task Master commands and prevents tag deletion bugs.

+**🏷️ Tagged Task Lists System:** Task Master now supports **tagged task lists** for multi-context task management. This allows you to maintain separate, isolated lists of tasks for different features, branches, or experiments. Existing projects are seamlessly migrated to use a default "master" tag. Most commands now support a `--tag <name>` flag to specify which context to operate on. If omitted, commands use the currently active tag.

 # Task Management Guidelines
 
+## Tagged Task Lists System
+
+Task Master now uses a **tagged task lists system** for multi-context task management:
+
+- **Data Structure**: Tasks are organized into separate contexts (tags) within `tasks.json`
+- **Legacy Format**: `{"tasks": [...]}`
+- **Tagged Format**: `{"master": {"tasks": [...]}, "feature-branch": {"tasks": [...]}}`
+- **Silent Migration**: Legacy format automatically converts to tagged format on first use
+- **Tag Resolution**: Core functions receive legacy format for 100% backward compatibility
+- **Default Tag**: "master" is used for all existing and new tasks unless otherwise specified

+    // Silent migration for tasks.json files
+    if (data.tasks && Array.isArray(data.tasks) && !data.master && isTasksFile) {
+      const migratedData = {
+        master: {
+          tasks: data.tasks
+        }
       };
-  ```
+      writeJSON(filepath, migratedData);
+      data = migratedData;
+    }
     
-- **Analysis-Based Workflow**:
-  - ✅ DO: Use complexity reports to guide task expansion
-  - ✅ DO: Prioritize complex tasks for more detailed breakdown
-  - ✅ DO: Use expansion prompts from complexity analysis
-
-  ```javascript
-  // ✅ DO: Apply complexity analysis to workflow
-  // Sort tasks by complexity if report exists, otherwise by ID
-  if (complexityReport && complexityReport.complexityAnalysis) {
-    log('info', 'Sorting tasks by complexity...');
-    
-    // Create a map of task IDs to complexity scores
-    const complexityMap = new Map();
-    complexityReport.complexityAnalysis.forEach(analysis => {
-      complexityMap.set(analysis.taskId, analysis.complexityScore);
-    });
-    
-    // Sort tasks by complexity score (high to low)
-    tasksToExpand.sort((a, b) => {
-      const scoreA = complexityMap.get(a.id) || 0;
-      const scoreB = complexityMap.get(b.id) || 0;
-      return scoreB - scoreA;
-    });
+    return data;
   }
   ```
 
-## Next Task Selection
-
-- **Eligibility Criteria**:
-  - ✅ DO: Consider dependencies when finding next tasks
-  - ✅ DO: Prioritize by task priority and dependency count
-  - ✅ DO: Skip completed tasks
+- **Tag Resolution**:
+  - ✅ DO: Use tag resolution functions to maintain backward compatibility
+  - ✅ DO: Return legacy format to core functions
+  - ❌ DON'T: Expose tagged structure to existing core logic
 
   ```javascript
-  // ✅ DO: Use proper task prioritization logic
-  function findNextTask(tasks) {
-    // Get all completed task IDs
-    const completedTaskIds = new Set(
-      tasks
-        .filter(t => t.status === 'done' || t.status === 'completed')
-        .map(t => t.id)
-    );
-    
-    // Filter for pending tasks whose dependencies are all satisfied
-    const eligibleTasks = tasks.filter(task => 
-      (task.status === 'pending' || task.status === 'in-progress') && 
-      task.dependencies && 
-      task.dependencies.every(depId => completedTaskIds.has(depId))
-    );
-    
-    // Sort by priority, dependency count, and ID
-    const priorityValues = { 'high': 3, 'medium': 2, 'low': 1 };
-    
-    const nextTask = eligibleTasks.sort((a, b) => {

-      
-      if (priorityB !== priorityA) {
-        return priorityB - priorityA; // Higher priority first
+  // ✅ DO: Use tag resolution layer
+  function getTasksForTag(data, tagName) {
+    if (data.tasks && Array.isArray(data.tasks)) {
+      // Legacy format - return as-is
+      return data.tasks;
     }
     
-      // Dependency count next
-      if (a.dependencies.length !== b.dependencies.length) {

+# Test Workflow & Development Process
+
+## **Initial Testing Framework Setup**
+
+Before implementing the TDD workflow, ensure your project has a proper testing framework configured. This section covers setup for different technology stacks.
+
+### **Detecting Project Type & Framework Needs**
+
+**AI Agent Assessment Checklist:**
+1. **Language Detection**: Check for `package.json` (Node.js/JavaScript), `requirements.txt` (Python), `Cargo.toml` (Rust), etc.
+2. **Existing Tests**: Look for test files (`.test.`, `.spec.`, `_test.`) or test directories
+3. **Framework Detection**: Check for existing test runners in dependencies
+4. **Project Structure**: Analyze directory structure for testing patterns
+
+### **JavaScript/Node.js Projects (Jest Setup)**
+
+#### **Prerequisites Check**
+```bash
+# Verify Node.js project
+ls package.json  # Should exist
+
+# Check for existing testing setup
+ls jest.config.js jest.config.ts  # Check for Jest config
+grep -E "(jest|vitest|mocha)" package.json  # Check for test runners
+```
+
+#### **Jest Installation & Configuration**
+
+**Step 1: Install Dependencies**
+```bash
+# Core Jest dependencies
+npm install --save-dev jest
+
+# TypeScript support (if using TypeScript)
+npm install --save-dev ts-jest @types/jest
+
+# Additional useful packages
+npm install --save-dev supertest @types/supertest  # For API testing
+npm install --save-dev jest-watch-typeahead  # Enhanced watch mode
+```
+
+**Step 2: Create Jest Configuration**
+
+Create `jest.config.js` with the following production-ready configuration:
+
+```javascript
+/** @type {import('jest').Config} */
+module.exports = {
+  // Use ts-jest preset for TypeScript support
+  preset: 'ts-jest',
+
+  // Test environment
+  testEnvironment: 'node',
+
+  // Roots for test discovery
+  roots: ['<rootDir>/src', '<rootDir>/tests'],
+
+  // Test file patterns
+  testMatch: ['**/__tests__/**/*.ts', '**/?(*.)+(spec|test).ts'],
+
+  // Transform files
+  transform: {
+    '^.+\\.ts$': [
+      'ts-jest',
+      {
+        tsconfig: {
+          target: 'es2020',
+          module: 'commonjs',
+          esModuleInterop: true,
+          allowSyntheticDefaultImports: true,
+          skipLibCheck: true,
+          strict: false,
+          noImplicitAny: false,
+        },
+      },
+    ],
+    '^.+\\.js$': [
+      'ts-jest',
+      {
+        useESM: false,
+        tsconfig: {
+          target: 'es2020',
+          module: 'commonjs',
+          esModuleInterop: true,
+          allowSyntheticDefaultImports: true,
+          allowJs: true,
+        },
+      },
+    ],
+  },
+
+  // Module file extensions
+  moduleFileExtensions: ['ts', 'tsx', 'js', 'jsx', 'json', 'node'],
+
+  // Transform ignore patterns - adjust for ES modules
+  transformIgnorePatterns: ['node_modules/(?!(your-es-module-deps|.*\\.mjs$))'],
+
+  // Coverage configuration
+  collectCoverage: true,
+  coverageDirectory: 'coverage',
+  coverageReporters: [
+    'text', // Console output
+    'text-summary', // Brief summary
+    'lcov', // For IDE integration
+    'html', // Detailed HTML report
+  ],
+
+  // Files to collect coverage from
+  collectCoverageFrom: [
+    'src/**/*.ts',
+    '!src/**/*.d.ts',
+    '!src/**/*.test.ts',
+    '!src/**/index.ts', // Often just exports
+    '!src/generated/**', // Generated code
+    '!src/config/database.ts', // Database config (tested via integration)
+  ],
+
+  // Coverage thresholds - TaskMaster standards
+  coverageThreshold: {
+    global: {
+      branches: 70,
+      functions: 80,
+      lines: 80,
+      statements: 80,
+    },
+    // Higher standards for critical business logic
+    './src/utils/': {
+      branches: 85,
+      functions: 90,
+      lines: 90,
+      statements: 90,
+    },
+    './src/middleware/': {
+      branches: 80,
+      functions: 85,
+      lines: 85,
+      statements: 85,
+    },
+  },
+
+  // Setup files
+  setupFilesAfterEnv: ['<rootDir>/tests/setup.ts'],
+
+  // Global teardown to prevent worker process leaks
+  globalTeardown: '<rootDir>/tests/teardown.ts',
+
+  // Module path mapping (if needed)
+  moduleNameMapper: {
+    '^@/(.*)$': '<rootDir>/src/$1',
+  },
+
+  // Clear mocks between tests
+  clearMocks: true,
+
+  // Restore mocks after each test
+  restoreMocks: true,
+
+  // Global test timeout
+  testTimeout: 10000,
+
+  // Projects for different test types
+  projects: [
+    // Unit tests - for pure functions only
+    {
+      displayName: 'unit',
+      testMatch: ['<rootDir>/src/**/*.test.ts'],
+      testPathIgnorePatterns: ['.*\\.integration\\.test\\.ts$', '/tests/'],
+      preset: 'ts-jest',
+      testEnvironment: 'node',
+      collectCoverageFrom: [
+        'src/**/*.ts',
+        '!src/**/*.d.ts',
+        '!src/**/*.test.ts',
+        '!src/**/*.integration.test.ts',
+      ],
+      coverageThreshold: {
+        global: {
+          branches: 70,
+          functions: 80,
+          lines: 80,
+          statements: 80,
+        },
+      },
+    },
+    // Integration tests - real database/services
+    {
+      displayName: 'integration',
+      testMatch: [
+        '<rootDir>/src/**/*.integration.test.ts',
+        '<rootDir>/tests/integration/**/*.test.ts',
+      ],
+      preset: 'ts-jest',
+      testEnvironment: 'node',
+      setupFilesAfterEnv: ['<rootDir>/tests/setup/integration.ts'],
+      testTimeout: 10000,
+    },
+    // E2E tests - full workflows
+    {
+      displayName: 'e2e',
+      testMatch: ['<rootDir>/tests/e2e/**/*.test.ts'],
+      preset: 'ts-jest',
+      testEnvironment: 'node',
+      setupFilesAfterEnv: ['<rootDir>/tests/setup/e2e.ts'],
+      testTimeout: 30000,
+    },
+  ],
+
+  // Verbose output for better debugging
+  verbose: true,
+
+  // Run projects sequentially to avoid conflicts
+  maxWorkers: 1,
+
+  // Enable watch mode plugins
+  watchPlugins: ['jest-watch-typeahead/filename', 'jest-watch-typeahead/testname'],
+};
+```
+
+**Step 3: Update package.json Scripts**
+
+Add these scripts to your `package.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "scripts": {
+    "test": "jest",
+    "test:watch": "jest --watch",
+    "test:coverage": "jest --coverage",
+    "test:unit": "jest --selectProjects unit",
+    "test:integration": "jest --selectProjects integration", 
+    "test:e2e": "jest --selectProjects e2e",
+    "test:ci": "jest --ci --coverage --watchAll=false"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Step 4: Create Test Setup Files**
+
+Create essential test setup files:
+
+```typescript
+// tests/setup.ts - Global setup
+import { jest } from '@jest/globals';
+
+// Global test configuration
+beforeAll(() => {
+  // Set test timeout
+  jest.setTimeout(10000);
+});
+
+afterEach(() => {
+  // Clean up mocks after each test
+  jest.clearAllMocks();
+});
+```
+
+```typescript
+// tests/setup/integration.ts - Integration test setup
+import { PrismaClient } from '@prisma/client';
+
+const prisma = new PrismaClient();
+
+beforeAll(async () => {
+  // Connect to test database
+  await prisma.$connect();
+});
+
+afterAll(async () => {
+  // Cleanup and disconnect
+  await prisma.$disconnect();
+});
+
+beforeEach(async () => {
+  // Clean test data before each test
+  // Add your cleanup logic here
+});
+```
+
+```typescript
+// tests/teardown.ts - Global teardown
+export default async () => {
+  // Global cleanup after all tests
+  console.log('Global test teardown complete');
+};
+```
+
+**Step 5: Create Initial Test Structure**
+
+```bash
+# Create test directories
+mkdir -p tests/{setup,fixtures,unit,integration,e2e}
+mkdir -p tests/unit/src/{utils,services,middleware}
+
+# Create sample test fixtures
+mkdir tests/fixtures
+```
+
+### **Generic Testing Framework Setup (Any Language)**
+
+#### **Framework Selection Guide**
+
+**Python Projects:**
+- **pytest**: Recommended for most Python projects
+- **unittest**: Built-in, suitable for simple projects
+- **Coverage**: Use `coverage.py` for code coverage
+
+```bash
+# Python setup example
+pip install pytest pytest-cov
+echo "[tool:pytest]" > pytest.ini
+echo "testpaths = tests" >> pytest.ini
+echo "addopts = --cov=src --cov-report=html --cov-report=term" >> pytest.ini
+```
+
+**Go Projects:**
+- **Built-in testing**: Use Go's built-in `testing` package
+- **Coverage**: Built-in with `go test -cover`
+
+```bash
+# Go setup example
+go mod init your-project
+mkdir -p tests
+# Tests are typically *_test.go files alongside source
+```
+
+**Rust Projects:**
+- **Built-in testing**: Use Rust's built-in test framework
+- **cargo-tarpaulin**: For coverage analysis
+
+```bash
+# Rust setup example
+cargo new your-project
+cd your-project
+cargo install cargo-tarpaulin  # For coverage
+```
+
+**Java Projects:**
+- **JUnit 5**: Modern testing framework
+- **Maven/Gradle**: Build tools with testing integration
+
+```xml
+<!-- Maven pom.xml example -->
+<dependency>
+    <groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>
+    <artifactId>junit-jupiter</artifactId>
+    <version>5.9.2</version>
+    <scope>test</scope>
+</dependency>
+```
+
+#### **Universal Testing Principles**
+
+**Coverage Standards (Adapt to Your Language):**
+- **Global Minimum**: 70-80% line coverage
+- **Critical Code**: 85-90% coverage
+- **New Features**: Must meet or exceed standards
+- **Legacy Code**: Gradual improvement strategy
+
+**Test Organization:**
+- **Unit Tests**: Fast, isolated, no external dependencies
+- **Integration Tests**: Test component interactions
+- **E2E Tests**: Test complete user workflows
+- **Performance Tests**: Load and stress testing (if applicable)
+
+**Naming Conventions:**
+- **Test Files**: `*.test.*`, `*_test.*`, or language-specific patterns
+- **Test Functions**: Descriptive names (e.g., `should_return_error_for_invalid_input`)
+- **Test Directories**: Organized by test type and mirroring source structure
+
+#### **TaskMaster Integration for Any Framework**
+
+**Document Testing Setup in Subtasks:**
+```bash
+# Update subtask with testing framework setup
+task-master update-subtask --id=X.Y --prompt="Testing framework setup:
+- Installed [Framework Name] with coverage support
+- Configured [Coverage Tool] with thresholds: 80% lines, 70% branches
+- Created test directory structure: unit/, integration/, e2e/
+- Added test scripts to build configuration
+- All setup tests passing"
+```
+
+**Testing Framework Verification:**
+```bash
+# Verify setup works
+[test-command]  # e.g., npm test, pytest, go test, cargo test
+
+# Check coverage reporting
+[coverage-command]  # e.g., npm run test:coverage
+
+# Update task with verification
+task-master update-subtask --id=X.Y --prompt="Testing framework verified:
+- Sample tests running successfully
+- Coverage reporting functional
+- CI/CD integration ready
+- Ready to begin TDD workflow"
+```
+
+## **Test-Driven Development (TDD) Integration**
+
+### **Core TDD Cycle with Jest**
+```bash
+# 1. Start development with watch mode
+npm run test:watch
+
+# 2. Write failing test first
+# Create test file: src/utils/newFeature.test.ts
+# Write test that describes expected behavior
+
+# 3. Implement minimum code to make test pass
+# 4. Refactor while keeping tests green
+# 5. Add edge cases and error scenarios
+```
+
+### **TDD Workflow Per Subtask**
+```bash
+# When starting a new subtask:
+task-master set-status --id=4.1 --status=in-progress
+
+# Begin TDD cycle:
+npm run test:watch  # Keep running during development
+
+# Document TDD progress in subtask:
+task-master update-subtask --id=4.1 --prompt="TDD Progress:
+- Written 3 failing tests for core functionality
+- Implemented basic feature, tests now passing
+- Adding edge case tests for error handling"
+
+# Complete subtask with test summary:
+task-master update-subtask --id=4.1 --prompt="Implementation complete:
+- Feature implemented with 8 unit tests
+- Coverage: 95% statements, 88% branches  
+- All tests passing, TDD cycle complete"
+```
+
+## **Testing Commands & Usage**
+
+### **Development Commands**
+```bash
+# Primary development command - use during coding
+npm run test:watch              # Watch mode with Jest
+npm run test:watch -- --testNamePattern="auth"  # Watch specific tests
+
+# Targeted testing during development
+npm run test:unit               # Run only unit tests
+npm run test:unit -- --coverage # Unit tests with coverage
+
+# Integration testing when APIs are ready
+npm run test:integration        # Run integration tests
+npm run test:integration -- --detectOpenHandles  # Debug hanging tests
+
+# End-to-end testing for workflows
+npm run test:e2e               # Run E2E tests
+npm run test:e2e -- --timeout=30000  # Extended timeout for E2E
+```
+
+### **Quality Assurance Commands**
+```bash
+# Full test suite with coverage (before commits)
+npm run test:coverage          # Complete coverage analysis
+
+# All tests (CI/CD pipeline)
+npm test                       # Run all test projects
+
+# Specific test file execution
+npm test -- auth.test.ts       # Run specific test file
+npm test -- --testNamePattern="should handle errors"  # Run specific tests
+```
+
+## **Test Implementation Patterns**
+
+### **Unit Test Development**
+```typescript
+// ✅ DO: Follow established patterns from auth.test.ts
+describe('FeatureName', () => {
+  beforeEach(() => {
+    jest.clearAllMocks();
+    // Setup mocks with proper typing
+  });
+
+  describe('functionName', () => {
+    it('should handle normal case', () => {
+      // Test implementation with specific assertions
+    });
+    
+    it('should throw error for invalid input', async () => {
+      // Error scenario testing
+      await expect(functionName(invalidInput))
+        .rejects.toThrow('Specific error message');
+    });
+  });
+});
+```
+
+### **Integration Test Development**  
+```typescript
+// ✅ DO: Use supertest for API endpoint testing
+import request from 'supertest';
+import { app } from '../../src/app';
+
+describe('POST /api/auth/register', () => {
+  beforeEach(async () => {
+    await integrationTestUtils.cleanupTestData();
+  });
+  
+  it('should register user successfully', async () => {
+    const userData = createTestUser();
+    
+    const response = await request(app)
+      .post('/api/auth/register')
+      .send(userData)
+      .expect(201);
+      
+    expect(response.body).toMatchObject({
+      id: expect.any(String),
+      email: userData.email
+    });
+    
+    // Verify database state
+    const user = await prisma.user.findUnique({
+      where: { email: userData.email }
+    });
+    expect(user).toBeTruthy();
+  });
+});
+```
+
+### **E2E Test Development**
+```typescript
+// ✅ DO: Test complete user workflows
+describe('User Authentication Flow', () => {
+  it('should complete registration → login → protected access', async () => {
+    // Step 1: Register
+    const userData = createTestUser();
+    await request(app)
+      .post('/api/auth/register')
+      .send(userData)
+      .expect(201);
+    
+    // Step 2: Login
+    const loginResponse = await request(app)
+      .post('/api/auth/login')
+      .send({ email: userData.email, password: userData.password })
+      .expect(200);
+    
+    const { token } = loginResponse.body;
+    
+    // Step 3: Access protected resource
+    await request(app)
+      .get('/api/profile')
+      .set('Authorization', `Bearer ${token}`)
+      .expect(200);
+  }, 30000); // Extended timeout for E2E
+});
+```
+
+## **Mocking & Test Utilities**
+
+### **Established Mocking Patterns**
+```typescript
+// ✅ DO: Use established bcrypt mocking pattern
+jest.mock('bcrypt');
+import bcrypt from 'bcrypt';
+const mockHash = bcrypt.hash as jest.MockedFunction<typeof bcrypt.hash>;
+const mockCompare = bcrypt.compare as jest.MockedFunction<typeof bcrypt.compare>;
+
+// ✅ DO: Use Prisma mocking for unit tests
+jest.mock('@prisma/client', () => ({
+  PrismaClient: jest.fn().mockImplementation(() => ({
+    user: {
+      create: jest.fn(),
+      findUnique: jest.fn(),
+    },
+    $connect: jest.fn(),
+    $disconnect: jest.fn(),
+  })),
+}));
+```
+
+### **Test Fixtures Usage**
+```typescript
+// ✅ DO: Use centralized test fixtures
+import { createTestUser, adminUser, invalidUser } from '../fixtures/users';
+
+describe('User Service', () => {
+  it('should handle admin user creation', async () => {
+    const userData = createTestUser(adminUser);
+    // Test implementation
+  });
+  
+  it('should reject invalid user data', async () => {
+    const userData = createTestUser(invalidUser);
+    // Error testing
+  });
+});
+```
+
+## **Coverage Standards & Monitoring**
+
+### **Coverage Thresholds**
+- **Global Standards**: 80% lines/functions, 70% branches
+- **Critical Code**: 90% utils, 85% middleware
+- **New Features**: Must meet or exceed global thresholds
+- **Legacy Code**: Gradual improvement with each change
+
+### **Coverage Reporting & Analysis**
+```bash
+# Generate coverage reports
+npm run test:coverage
+
+# View detailed HTML report
+open coverage/lcov-report/index.html
+
+# Coverage files generated:
+# - coverage/lcov-report/index.html  # Detailed HTML report
+# - coverage/lcov.info               # LCOV format for IDE integration  
+# - coverage/coverage-final.json     # JSON format for tooling
+```
+
+### **Coverage Quality Checks**
+```typescript
+// ✅ DO: Test all code paths
+describe('validateInput', () => {
+  it('should return true for valid input', () => {
+    expect(validateInput('valid')).toBe(true);

+## **Testing During Development Phases**
+
+### **Feature Development Phase**
+```bash
+# 1. Start feature development
+task-master set-status --id=X.Y --status=in-progress
+
+# 2. Begin TDD cycle  
+npm run test:watch
+
+# 3. Document test progress in subtask
+task-master update-subtask --id=X.Y --prompt="Test development:
+- Created test file with 5 failing tests
+- Implemented core functionality
+- Tests passing, adding error scenarios"
+
+# 4. Verify coverage before completion
+npm run test:coverage
+
+# 5. Update subtask with final test status
+task-master update-subtask --id=X.Y --prompt="Testing complete:
+- 12 unit tests with full coverage
+- All edge cases and error scenarios covered
+- Ready for integration testing"
+```
+
+### **Integration Testing Phase**
+```bash
+# After API endpoints are implemented
+npm run test:integration
+
+# Update integration test templates
+# Replace placeholder tests with real endpoint calls
+
+# Document integration test results
+task-master update-subtask --id=X.Y --prompt="Integration tests:
+- Updated auth endpoint tests  
+- Database integration verified
+- All HTTP status codes and responses tested"
+```
+
+### **Pre-Commit Testing Phase**
+```bash
+# Before committing code
+npm run test:coverage         # Verify all tests pass with coverage
+npm run test:unit            # Quick unit test verification
+npm run test:integration     # Integration test verification (if applicable)
+
+# Commit pattern for test updates
+git add tests/ src/**/*.test.ts
+git commit -m "test(task-X): Add comprehensive tests for Feature Y
+
+- Unit tests with 95% coverage (exceeds 90% threshold)
+- Integration tests for API endpoints
+- Test fixtures for data generation
+- Proper mocking patterns established
+
+Task X: Feature Y - Testing complete"
+```
+
+## **Error Handling & Debugging**
+
+### **Test Debugging Techniques**
+```typescript
+// ✅ DO: Use test utilities for debugging
+import { testUtils } from '../setup';
+
+it('should debug complex operation', () => {
+  testUtils.withConsole(() => {
+    // Console output visible only for this test
+    console.log('Debug info:', complexData);
+    service.complexOperation();
+  });
+});
+
+// ✅ DO: Use proper async debugging
+it('should handle async operations', async () => {
+  const promise = service.asyncOperation();
+  
+  // Test intermediate state
+  expect(service.isProcessing()).toBe(true);
+  
+  const result = await promise;
+  expect(result).toBe('expected');
+  expect(service.isProcessing()).toBe(false);
+});
+```
+
+### **Common Test Issues & Solutions**
+```bash
+# Hanging tests (common with database connections)
+npm run test:integration -- --detectOpenHandles
+
+# Memory leaks in tests
+npm run test:unit -- --logHeapUsage
+
+# Slow tests identification
+npm run test:coverage -- --verbose
+
+# Mock not working properly
+# Check: mock is declared before imports
+# Check: jest.clearAllMocks() in beforeEach
+# Check: TypeScript typing is correct
+```
+
+## **Continuous Integration Integration**
+
+### **CI/CD Pipeline Testing**
+```yaml
+# Example GitHub Actions integration
+- name: Run tests
+  run: |
+    npm ci
+    npm run test:coverage
+    
+- name: Upload coverage reports
+  uses: codecov/codecov-action@v3
+  with:
+    file: ./coverage/lcov.info
+```
+
+### **Pre-commit Hooks**
+```bash
+# Setup pre-commit testing (recommended)
+# In package.json scripts:
+"pre-commit": "npm run test:unit && npm run test:integration"
+
+# Husky integration example:
+npx husky add .husky/pre-commit "npm run test:unit"
+```
+
+## **Test Maintenance & Evolution**
+
+### **Adding Tests for New Features**
+1. **Create test file** alongside source code or in `tests/unit/`
+2. **Follow established patterns** from `src/utils/auth.test.ts`
+3. **Use existing fixtures** from `tests/fixtures/`
+4. **Apply proper mocking** patterns for dependencies
+5. **Meet coverage thresholds** for the module
+
+### **Updating Integration/E2E Tests**
+1. **Update templates** in `tests/integration/` when APIs change
+2. **Modify E2E workflows** in `tests/e2e/` for new user journeys  
+3. **Update test fixtures** for new data requirements
+4. **Maintain database cleanup** utilities
+
+### **Test Performance Optimization**
+- **Parallel execution**: Jest runs tests in parallel by default
+- **Test isolation**: Use proper setup/teardown for independence
+- **Mock optimization**: Mock heavy dependencies appropriately  
+- **Database efficiency**: Use transaction rollbacks where possible

+## Enhanced Display Patterns
+
+### **Token Breakdown Display**
+- Use detailed, granular token breakdowns for AI-powered commands
+- Display context sources with individual token counts
+- Show both token count and character count for transparency
+
+  ```javascript
+  // ✅ DO: Display detailed token breakdown
+  function displayDetailedTokenBreakdown(tokenBreakdown, systemTokens, userTokens) {
+    const sections = [];
+    
+    if (tokenBreakdown.tasks?.length > 0) {
+      const taskDetails = tokenBreakdown.tasks.map(task => 
+        `${task.type === 'subtask' ? '  ' : ''}${task.id}: ${task.tokens.toLocaleString()}`
+      ).join('\n');
+      sections.push(`Tasks (${tokenBreakdown.tasks.reduce((sum, t) => sum + t.tokens, 0).toLocaleString()}):\n${taskDetails}`);
+    }
+    
+    const content = sections.join('\n\n');
+    console.log(boxen(content, {
+      title: chalk.cyan('Token Usage'),
+      padding: { top: 1, bottom: 1, left: 2, right: 2 },
+      borderStyle: 'round',
+      borderColor: 'cyan'
+    }));
+  }
+  ```
+
+### **Code Block Syntax Highlighting**
+- Use `cli-highlight` library for syntax highlighting in terminal output
+- Process code blocks in AI responses for better readability
+
+  ```javascript
+  // ✅ DO: Enhance code blocks with syntax highlighting
+  import { highlight } from 'cli-highlight';
+  
+  function processCodeBlocks(text) {
+    return text.replace(/```(\w+)?\n([\s\S]*?)```/g, (match, language, code) => {
+      try {
+        const highlighted = highlight(code.trim(), { 
+          language: language || 'javascript',
+          theme: 'default'
+        });
+        return `\n${highlighted}\n`;
+      } catch (error) {
+        return `\n${code.trim()}\n`;
+      }
+    });
+  }
+  ```
+
+### **Multi-Section Result Display**
+- Use separate boxes for headers, content, and metadata
+- Maintain consistent styling across different result types
+
+  ```javascript
+  // ✅ DO: Use structured result display
+  function displayResults(result, query, detailLevel) {
+    // Header with query info
+    const header = boxen(
+      chalk.green.bold('Research Results') + '\n\n' +
+      chalk.gray('Query: ') + chalk.white(query) + '\n' +
+      chalk.gray('Detail Level: ') + chalk.cyan(detailLevel),
+      {
+        padding: { top: 1, bottom: 1, left: 2, right: 2 },
+        margin: { top: 1, bottom: 0 },
+        borderStyle: 'round',
+        borderColor: 'green'
+      }
+    );
+    console.log(header);
+    
+    // Process and display main content
+    const processedResult = processCodeBlocks(result);
+    const contentBox = boxen(processedResult, {
+      padding: { top: 1, bottom: 1, left: 2, right: 2 },
+      margin: { top: 0, bottom: 1 },
+      borderStyle: 'single',
+      borderColor: 'gray'
+    });
+    console.log(contentBox);
+    
+    console.log(chalk.green('✓ Operation complete'));
+  }

+## Context Gathering Utilities
+
+### **ContextGatherer** (`scripts/modules/utils/contextGatherer.js`)
+
+- **Multi-Source Context Extraction**:
+  - ✅ DO: Use for AI-powered commands that need project context
+  - ✅ DO: Support tasks, files, custom text, and project tree context
+  - ✅ DO: Implement detailed token counting with `gpt-tokens` library

+    customContext: 'Additional context',
+    includeProjectTree: true,
+    format: 'research',
+    includeTokenCounts: true
+  });
+  ```
+
+### **FuzzyTaskSearch** (`scripts/modules/utils/fuzzyTaskSearch.js`)
+
+- **Intelligent Task Discovery**:
+  - ✅ DO: Use for automatic task relevance detection
+  - ✅ DO: Configure search parameters based on use case context
+  - ✅ DO: Implement purpose-based categorization for better matching
+  - ✅ DO: Sort results by relevance score and task ID
+
+  ```javascript

+
+## File System Operations
+
+- **JSON File Handling**:
+  - ✅ DO: Use `readJSON` and `writeJSON` for all JSON operations
+  - ✅ DO: Include error handling for file operations
+  - ✅ DO: Validate JSON structure after reading
+  - ❌ DON'T: Use raw `fs.readFileSync` or `fs.writeFileSync` for JSON
+
+  ```javascript
+  // ✅ DO: Use utility functions with error handling
+  function readJSON(filepath) {
+    try {
+      if (!fs.existsSync(filepath)) {
+        return null; // or appropriate default
+      }
+      
+      let data = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync(filepath, 'utf8'));

+      log('error', `Failed to write JSON to ${filepath}: ${error.message}`);
+      throw error;
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+- **Path Resolution**:
+  - ✅ DO: Use `path.join()` for cross-platform path construction
+  - ✅ DO: Use `path.resolve()` for absolute paths

+  }
+  ```
+
+## Tagged Task Lists System Utilities
+
+- **Tag Resolution Functions**:
+  - ✅ DO: Use tag resolution layer for all task data access
+  - ✅ DO: Provide backward compatibility with legacy format
+  - ✅ DO: Default to "master" tag when no tag is specified
+
+  ```javascript
+  // ✅ DO: Implement tag resolution functions

+
+## Task Utilities
+
+- **Task Finding and Manipulation**:
+  - ✅ DO: Use tagged task system aware functions
+  - ✅ DO: Handle both task and subtask operations
+  - ✅ DO: Validate task IDs before operations
+
+  ```javascript
+  // ✅ DO: Implement tag-aware task utilities
+  function findTaskById(tasks, taskId) {
+    if (!Array.isArray(tasks)) {
+      return null;
+    }
+    return tasks.find(task => task.id === taskId) || null;
+  }
+  
+  function findSubtaskById(tasks, parentId, subtaskId) {
+    const parentTask = findTaskById(tasks, parentId);
+    if (!parentTask || !parentTask.subtasks) {
+      return null;
+    }
+    
+    return parentTask.subtasks.find(subtask => subtask.id === subtaskId) || null;
+  }
+  
+  function getNextTaskId(tasks) {
+    if (!Array.isArray(tasks) || tasks.length === 0) {
+      return 1;
+    }
+    
+    const maxId = Math.max(...tasks.map(task => task.id));
+    return maxId + 1;
+  }
+  
+  function getNextSubtaskId(parentTask) {
+    if (!parentTask.subtasks || parentTask.subtasks.length === 0) {
+      return 1;
+    }
+    
+    const maxId = Math.max(...parentTask.subtasks.map(subtask => subtask.id));
+    return maxId + 1;
+  }
+  ```
+
+## String Utilities
+
+- **Text Processing**:
+  - ✅ DO: Handle text truncation appropriately
+  - ✅ DO: Provide consistent formatting functions
+  - ✅ DO: Support different output formats
+
+  ```javascript
+  // ✅ DO: Implement useful string utilities
+  function truncate(str, maxLength = 50) {
+    if (!str || typeof str !== 'string') {
+      return '';
+    }
+    
+    if (str.length <= maxLength) {
+      return str;
+    }
+    
+    return str.substring(0, maxLength - 3) + '...';
+  }
+  
+  function formatDuration(ms) {
+    const seconds = Math.floor(ms / 1000);
+    const minutes = Math.floor(seconds / 60);
+    const hours = Math.floor(minutes / 60);
+    
+    if (hours > 0) {
+      return `${hours}h ${minutes % 60}m ${seconds % 60}s`;
+    } else if (minutes > 0) {
+      return `${minutes}m ${seconds % 60}s`;
+    } else {
+      return `${seconds}s`;
+    }
+  }
+  
+  function capitalizeFirst(str) {
+    if (!str || typeof str !== 'string') {
+      return '';
+    }
+    
+    return str.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + str.slice(1).toLowerCase();
+  }
+  ```
+
+## Dependency Management Utilities
+
+- **Dependency Analysis**:
+  - ✅ DO: Detect circular dependencies
+  - ✅ DO: Validate dependency references
+  - ✅ DO: Support cross-tag dependency checking (future enhancement)
+
+  ```javascript
+  // ✅ DO: Implement dependency utilities
+  function findCycles(tasks) {
+    const cycles = [];
+    const visited = new Set();
+    const recStack = new Set();
+    
+    function dfs(taskId, path = []) {
+      if (recStack.has(taskId)) {
+        // Found a cycle
+        const cycleStart = path.indexOf(taskId);
+        const cycle = path.slice(cycleStart).concat([taskId]);
+        cycles.push(cycle);
+        return;
+      }
+      
+      if (visited.has(taskId)) {
+        return;
+      }
+      
+      visited.add(taskId);
+      recStack.add(taskId);
+      
+      const task = findTaskById(tasks, taskId);
+      if (task && task.dependencies) {
+        task.dependencies.forEach(depId => {
+          dfs(depId, path.concat([taskId]));
+        });
+      }
+      
+      recStack.delete(taskId);
+    }
+    
+    tasks.forEach(task => {
+      if (!visited.has(task.id)) {
+        dfs(task.id);
+      }
+    });
+    
+    return cycles;
+  }
+  
+  function validateDependencies(tasks) {
+    const validationErrors = [];
+    const taskIds = new Set(tasks.map(task => task.id));
+    
+    tasks.forEach(task => {
+      if (task.dependencies) {
+        task.dependencies.forEach(depId => {
+          if (!taskIds.has(depId)) {
+            validationErrors.push({
+              taskId: task.id,
+              invalidDependency: depId,
+              message: `Task ${task.id} depends on non-existent task ${depId}`
+            });
+          }
+        });
+      }
+    });
+    
+    return validationErrors;
+  }
+  ```
+
+## Environment and Configuration Utilities
+
+- **Environment Variable Resolution**:
+  - ✅ DO: Support both `.env` files and MCP session environment
+  - ✅ DO: Provide fallbacks for missing values
+  - ✅ DO: Handle API key resolution correctly
+
+  ```javascript
+  // ✅ DO: Implement flexible environment resolution
+  function resolveEnvVariable(key, sessionEnv = null) {
+    // First check session environment (for MCP)
+    if (sessionEnv && sessionEnv[key]) {
+      return sessionEnv[key];
+    }
+    
+    // Then check process environment
+    if (process.env[key]) {
+      return process.env[key];
+    }
+    
+    // Finally try .env file if in project root
+    try {
+      const projectRoot = findProjectRoot();
+      if (projectRoot) {
+        const envPath = path.join(projectRoot, '.env');
+        if (fs.existsSync(envPath)) {
+          const envContent = fs.readFileSync(envPath, 'utf8');
+          const lines = envContent.split('\n');
+          
+          for (const line of lines) {
+            const [envKey, envValue] = line.split('=');
+            if (envKey && envKey.trim() === key) {
+              return envValue ? envValue.trim().replace(/^["']|["']$/g, '') : undefined;
+            }
+          }
+        }
+      }
+    } catch (error) {
+      log('debug', `Error reading .env file: ${error.message}`);
+    }
+    
+    return undefined;
+  }
+  
+  function getDebugFlag() {
+    const debugFlag = resolveEnvVariable('TASKMASTER_DEBUG') || 
+                     resolveEnvVariable('DEBUG') || 
+                     'false';
+    return debugFlag.toLowerCase() === 'true';
+  }
+  ```
+
+## Export Pattern
+
+- **Module Exports**:
+  - ✅ DO: Export all utility functions explicitly
+  - ✅ DO: Group related functions logically
+  - ✅ DO: Include new tagged system utilities
+
+  ```javascript
+  // ✅ DO: Export utilities in logical groups
+  module.exports = {
+    // File system utilities
+    readJSON,
+    writeJSON,
+    findProjectRoot,
+    
+    // Tagged task system utilities
+    getTasksForTag,
+    setTasksForTag,
+    getCurrentTag,
+    performCompleteTagMigration,
+    migrateConfigJson,
+    createStateJson,
+    markMigrationForNotice,
+    
+    // Logging utilities
+    log,
+    enableSilentMode,
+    disableSilentMode,
+    isSilentMode,
+    
+    // Task utilities
+    findTaskById,
+    findSubtaskById,
+    getNextTaskId,
+    getNextSubtaskId,
+    
+    // String utilities
+    truncate,
+    formatDuration,
+    capitalizeFirst,
+    
+    // Dependency utilities
+    findCycles,
+    validateDependencies,
+    
+    // Environment utilities
+    resolveEnvVariable,
+    getDebugFlag,
+    
+    // Legacy utilities (maintained for compatibility)
+    aggregateTelemetry
+  };
+  ```
+
+Refer to [`utils.js`](mdc:scripts/modules/utils.js) for implementation examples and [`architecture.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/architecture.mdc) for integration patterns.

+            2. Check if these changes require documentation updates in apps/docs/
+            3. If documentation updates are needed:
+               - Update relevant documentation files in apps/docs/
+               - Ensure examples are updated if APIs changed
+               - Update any configuration documentation if config options changed
+               - Add new documentation pages if new features were added

+            4. If no documentation updates are needed, skip creating changes
+
+            Guidelines:

+            - Include code examples where appropriate
+            - Maintain consistent documentation style with existing docs
+            - Don't document internal implementation details unless they affect users
+            - Update navigation/menu files if new pages are added
+
+            Only make changes if the documentation truly needs updating based on the code changes.

+          You're an issue triage assistant for GitHub issues. Your task is to analyze the issue and select appropriate labels from the provided list.
+
+          IMPORTANT: Don't post any comments or messages to the issue. Your only action should be to apply labels.
+
+          Issue Information:
+          - REPO: ${{ github.repository }}
+          - ISSUE_NUMBER: ${{ github.event.issue.number }}
+
+          TASK OVERVIEW:
+
+          1. First, fetch the list of labels available in this repository by running: `gh label list`. Run exactly this command with nothing else.
+
+          2. Next, use the GitHub tools to get context about the issue:
+             - You have access to these tools:
+               - mcp__github__get_issue: Use this to retrieve the current issue's details including title, description, and existing labels
+               - mcp__github__get_issue_comments: Use this to read any discussion or additional context provided in the comments
+               - mcp__github__update_issue: Use this to apply labels to the issue (do not use this for commenting)
+               - mcp__github__search_issues: Use this to find similar issues that might provide context for proper categorization and to identify potential duplicate issues
+               - mcp__github__list_issues: Use this to understand patterns in how other issues are labeled
+             - Start by using mcp__github__get_issue to get the issue details
+
+          3. Analyze the issue content, considering:
+             - The issue title and description
+             - The type of issue (bug report, feature request, question, etc.)
+             - Technical areas mentioned
+             - Severity or priority indicators
+             - User impact
+             - Components affected
+
+          4. Select appropriate labels from the available labels list provided above:
+             - Choose labels that accurately reflect the issue's nature
+             - Be specific but comprehensive
+             - Select priority labels if you can determine urgency (high-priority, med-priority, or low-priority)
+             - Consider platform labels (android, ios) if applicable
+             - If you find similar issues using mcp__github__search_issues, consider using a "duplicate" label if appropriate. Only do so if the issue is a duplicate of another OPEN issue.
+
+          5. Apply the selected labels:
+             - Use mcp__github__update_issue to apply your selected labels
+             - DO NOT post any comments explaining your decision
+             - DO NOT communicate directly with users
+             - If no labels are clearly applicable, do not apply any labels
+
+          IMPORTANT GUIDELINES:
+          - Be thorough in your analysis
+          - Only select labels from the provided list above

+- **Your Default Stance**: For most projects, the user can work directly within the `master` task context. Your initial actions should operate on this default context unless a clear pattern for multi-context work emerges.
+- **Your Goal**: Your role is to elevate the user's workflow by intelligently introducing advanced features like **Tagged Task Lists** when you detect the appropriate context. Do not force tags on the user; suggest them as a helpful solution to a specific need.
+
+## The Basic Loop
+The fundamental development cycle you will facilitate is:
+1.  **`list`**: Show the user what needs to be done.
+2.  **`next`**: Help the user decide what to work on.
+3.  **`show <id>`**: Provide details for a specific task.
+4.  **`expand <id>`**: Break down a complex task into smaller, manageable subtasks.
+5.  **Implement**: The user writes the code and tests.
+6.  **`update-subtask`**: Log progress and findings on behalf of the user.
+7.  **`set-status`**: Mark tasks and subtasks as `done` as work is completed.
+8.  **Repeat**.
+
+All your standard command executions should operate on the user's current task context, which defaults to `master`.
+
+---
+
+## Standard Development Workflow Process
+
+### Simple Workflow (Default Starting Point)
+
+For new projects or when users are getting started, operate within the `master` tag context:
+
+-   Start new projects by running `initialize_project` tool / `task-master init` or `parse_prd` / `task-master parse-prd --input='<prd-file.txt>'` (see @`taskmaster.md`) to generate initial tasks.json with tagged structure
+-   Configure rule sets during initialization with `--rules` flag (e.g., `task-master init --rules kiro,windsurf`) or manage them later with `task-master rules add/remove` commands  
+-   Begin coding sessions with `get_tasks` / `task-master list` (see @`taskmaster.md`) to see current tasks, status, and IDs
+-   Determine the next task to work on using `next_task` / `task-master next` (see @`taskmaster.md`)
+-   Analyze task complexity with `analyze_project_complexity` / `task-master analyze-complexity --research` (see @`taskmaster.md`) before breaking down tasks
+-   Review complexity report using `complexity_report` / `task-master complexity-report` (see @`taskmaster.md`)
+-   Select tasks based on dependencies (all marked 'done'), priority level, and ID order
+-   View specific task details using `get_task` / `task-master show <id>` (see @`taskmaster.md`) to understand implementation requirements
+-   Break down complex tasks using `expand_task` / `task-master expand --id=<id> --force --research` (see @`taskmaster.md`) with appropriate flags like `--force` (to replace existing subtasks) and `--research`
+-   Implement code following task details, dependencies, and project standards
+-   Mark completed tasks with `set_task_status` / `task-master set-status --id=<id> --status=done` (see @`taskmaster.md`)
+-   Update dependent tasks when implementation differs from original plan using `update` / `task-master update --from=<id> --prompt="..."` or `update_task` / `task-master update-task --id=<id> --prompt="..."` (see @`taskmaster.md`)
+
+---
+
+## Leveling Up: Agent-Led Multi-Context Workflows
+
+While the basic workflow is powerful, your primary opportunity to add value is by identifying when to introduce **Tagged Task Lists**. These patterns are your tools for creating a more organized and efficient development environment for the user, especially if you detect agentic or parallel development happening across the same session.
+
+**Critical Principle**: Most users should never see a difference in their experience. Only introduce advanced workflows when you detect clear indicators that the project has evolved beyond simple task management.
+
+### When to Introduce Tags: Your Decision Patterns
+
+Here are the patterns to look for. When you detect one, you should propose the corresponding workflow to the user.
+
+#### Pattern 1: Simple Git Feature Branching
+This is the most common and direct use case for tags.
+
+- **Trigger**: The user creates a new git branch (e.g., `git checkout -b feature/user-auth`).
+- **Your Action**: Propose creating a new tag that mirrors the branch name to isolate the feature's tasks from `master`.
+- **Your Suggested Prompt**: *"I see you've created a new branch named 'feature/user-auth'. To keep all related tasks neatly organized and separate from your main list, I can create a corresponding task tag for you. This helps prevent merge conflicts in your `tasks.json` file later. Shall I create the 'feature-user-auth' tag?"*
+- **Tool to Use**: `task-master add-tag --from-branch`
+
+#### Pattern 2: Team Collaboration
+- **Trigger**: The user mentions working with teammates (e.g., "My teammate Alice is handling the database schema," or "I need to review Bob's work on the API.").
+- **Your Action**: Suggest creating a separate tag for the user's work to prevent conflicts with shared master context.
+- **Your Suggested Prompt**: *"Since you're working with Alice, I can create a separate task context for your work to avoid conflicts. This way, Alice can continue working with the master list while you have your own isolated context. When you're ready to merge your work, we can coordinate the tasks back to master. Shall I create a tag for your current work?"*
+- **Tool to Use**: `task-master add-tag my-work --copy-from-current --description="My tasks while collaborating with Alice"`
+
+#### Pattern 3: Experiments or Risky Refactors
+- **Trigger**: The user wants to try something that might not be kept (e.g., "I want to experiment with switching our state management library," or "Let's refactor the old API module, but I want to keep the current tasks as a reference.").
+- **Your Action**: Propose creating a sandboxed tag for the experimental work.
+- **Your Suggested Prompt**: *"This sounds like a great experiment. To keep these new tasks separate from our main plan, I can create a temporary 'experiment-zustand' tag for this work. If we decide not to proceed, we can simply delete the tag without affecting the main task list. Sound good?"*
+- **Tool to Use**: `task-master add-tag experiment-zustand --description="Exploring Zustand migration"`
+
+#### Pattern 4: Large Feature Initiatives (PRD-Driven)
+This is a more structured approach for significant new features or epics.
+
+- **Trigger**: The user describes a large, multi-step feature that would benefit from a formal plan.
+- **Your Action**: Propose a comprehensive, PRD-driven workflow.
+- **Your Suggested Prompt**: *"This sounds like a significant new feature. To manage this effectively, I suggest we create a dedicated task context for it. Here's the plan: I'll create a new tag called 'feature-xyz', then we can draft a Product Requirements Document (PRD) together to scope the work. Once the PRD is ready, I'll automatically generate all the necessary tasks within that new tag. How does that sound?"*
+- **Your Implementation Flow**:
+    1.  **Create an empty tag**: `task-master add-tag feature-xyz --description "Tasks for the new XYZ feature"`. You can also start by creating a git branch if applicable, and then create the tag from that branch.
+    2.  **Collaborate & Create PRD**: Work with the user to create a detailed PRD file (e.g., `.taskmaster/docs/feature-xyz-prd.txt`).
+    3.  **Parse PRD into the new tag**: `task-master parse-prd .taskmaster/docs/feature-xyz-prd.txt --tag feature-xyz`
+    4.  **Prepare the new task list**: Follow up by suggesting `analyze-complexity` and `expand-all` for the newly created tasks within the `feature-xyz` tag.
+
+#### Pattern 5: Version-Based Development
+Tailor your approach based on the project maturity indicated by tag names.
+
+- **Prototype/MVP Tags** (`prototype`, `mvp`, `poc`, `v0.x`):
+  - **Your Approach**: Focus on speed and functionality over perfection
+  - **Task Generation**: Create tasks that emphasize "get it working" over "get it perfect"
+  - **Complexity Level**: Lower complexity, fewer subtasks, more direct implementation paths
+  - **Research Prompts**: Include context like "This is a prototype - prioritize speed and basic functionality over optimization"
+  - **Example Prompt Addition**: *"Since this is for the MVP, I'll focus on tasks that get core functionality working quickly rather than over-engineering."*
+
+- **Production/Mature Tags** (`v1.0+`, `production`, `stable`):
+  - **Your Approach**: Emphasize robustness, testing, and maintainability
+  - **Task Generation**: Include comprehensive error handling, testing, documentation, and optimization
+  - **Complexity Level**: Higher complexity, more detailed subtasks, thorough implementation paths
+  - **Research Prompts**: Include context like "This is for production - prioritize reliability, performance, and maintainability"
+  - **Example Prompt Addition**: *"Since this is for production, I'll ensure tasks include proper error handling, testing, and documentation."*
+
+### Advanced Workflow (Tag-Based & PRD-Driven)
+
+**When to Transition**: Recognize when the project has evolved (or has initiated a project which existing code) beyond simple task management. Look for these indicators:
+- User mentions teammates or collaboration needs
+- Project has grown to 15+ tasks with mixed priorities
+- User creates feature branches or mentions major initiatives
+- User initializes Taskmaster on an existing, complex codebase
+- User describes large features that would benefit from dedicated planning
+
+**Your Role in Transition**: Guide the user to a more sophisticated workflow that leverages tags for organization and PRDs for comprehensive planning.
+
+#### Master List Strategy (High-Value Focus)
+Once you transition to tag-based workflows, the `master` tag should ideally contain only:
+- **High-level deliverables** that provide significant business value
+- **Major milestones** and epic-level features
+- **Critical infrastructure** work that affects the entire project
+- **Release-blocking** items
+
+**What NOT to put in master**:
+- Detailed implementation subtasks (these go in feature-specific tags' parent tasks)
+- Refactoring work (create dedicated tags like `refactor-auth`)
+- Experimental features (use `experiment-*` tags)
+- Team member-specific tasks (use person-specific tags)
+
+#### PRD-Driven Feature Development
+
+**For New Major Features**:
+1. **Identify the Initiative**: When user describes a significant feature
+2. **Create Dedicated Tag**: `add_tag feature-[name] --description="[Feature description]"`
+3. **Collaborative PRD Creation**: Work with user to create comprehensive PRD in `.taskmaster/docs/feature-[name]-prd.txt`
+4. **Parse & Prepare**: 
+   - `parse_prd .taskmaster/docs/feature-[name]-prd.txt --tag=feature-[name]`
+   - `analyze_project_complexity --tag=feature-[name] --research`
+   - `expand_all --tag=feature-[name] --research`
+5. **Add Master Reference**: Create a high-level task in `master` that references the feature tag
+
+**For Existing Codebase Analysis**:
+When users initialize Taskmaster on existing projects:
+1. **Codebase Discovery**: Use your native tools for producing deep context about the code base. You may use `research` tool with `--tree` and `--files` to collect up to date information using the existing architecture as context.
+2. **Collaborative Assessment**: Work with user to identify improvement areas, technical debt, or new features
+3. **Strategic PRD Creation**: Co-author PRDs that include:
+   - Current state analysis (based on your codebase research)
+   - Proposed improvements or new features
+   - Implementation strategy considering existing code
+4. **Tag-Based Organization**: Parse PRDs into appropriate tags (`refactor-api`, `feature-dashboard`, `tech-debt`, etc.)
+5. **Master List Curation**: Keep only the most valuable initiatives in master
+
+The parse-prd's `--append` flag enables the user to parse multiple PRDs within tags or across tags. PRDs should be focused and the number of tasks they are parsed into should be strategically chosen relative to the PRD's complexity and level of detail.
+
+### Workflow Transition Examples
+
+**Example 1: Simple → Team-Based**
+```
+User: "Alice is going to help with the API work"
+Your Response: "Great! To avoid conflicts, I'll create a separate task context for your work. Alice can continue with the master list while you work in your own context. When you're ready to merge, we can coordinate the tasks back together."
+Action: add_tag my-api-work --copy-from-current --description="My API tasks while collaborating with Alice"
+```
+
+**Example 2: Simple → PRD-Driven**
+```
+User: "I want to add a complete user dashboard with analytics, user management, and reporting"
+Your Response: "This sounds like a major feature that would benefit from detailed planning. Let me create a dedicated context for this work and we can draft a PRD together to ensure we capture all requirements."
+Actions: 
+1. add_tag feature-dashboard --description="User dashboard with analytics and management"
+2. Collaborate on PRD creation
+3. parse_prd dashboard-prd.txt --tag=feature-dashboard
+4. Add high-level "User Dashboard" task to master
+```
+
+**Example 3: Existing Project → Strategic Planning**
+```
+User: "I just initialized Taskmaster on my existing React app. It's getting messy and I want to improve it."
+Your Response: "Let me research your codebase to understand the current architecture, then we can create a strategic plan for improvements."
+Actions:
+1. research "Current React app architecture and improvement opportunities" --tree --files=src/
+2. Collaborate on improvement PRD based on findings
+3. Create tags for different improvement areas (refactor-components, improve-state-management, etc.)
+4. Keep only major improvement initiatives in master
+```
+

+
+## Primary Interaction: MCP Server vs. CLI
+
+Taskmaster offers two primary ways to interact:
+
+1.  **MCP Server (Recommended for Integrated Tools)**:
+    - For AI agents and integrated development environments (like Kiro), interacting via the **MCP server is the preferred method**.
+    - The MCP server exposes Taskmaster functionality through a set of tools (e.g., `get_tasks`, `add_subtask`).
+    - This method offers better performance, structured data exchange, and richer error handling compared to CLI parsing.
+    - Refer to @`mcp.md` for details on the MCP architecture and available tools.
+    - A comprehensive list and description of MCP tools and their corresponding CLI commands can be found in @`taskmaster.md`.
+    - **Restart the MCP server** if core logic in `scripts/modules` or MCP tool/direct function definitions change.
+    - **Note**: MCP tools fully support tagged task lists with complete tag management capabilities.
+
+2.  **`task-master` CLI (For Users & Fallback)**:
+    - The global `task-master` command provides a user-friendly interface for direct terminal interaction.
+    - It can also serve as a fallback if the MCP server is inaccessible or a specific function isn't exposed via MCP.
+    - Install globally with `npm install -g task-master-ai` or use locally via `npx task-master-ai ...`.
+    - The CLI commands often mirror the MCP tools (e.g., `task-master list` corresponds to `get_tasks`).
+    - Refer to @`taskmaster.md` for a detailed command reference.
+    - **Tagged Task Lists**: CLI fully supports the new tagged system with seamless migration.
+
+## How the Tag System Works (For Your Reference)
+
+- **Data Structure**: Tasks are organized into separate contexts (tags) like "master", "feature-branch", or "v2.0".
+- **Silent Migration**: Existing projects automatically migrate to use a "master" tag with zero disruption.
+- **Context Isolation**: Tasks in different tags are completely separate. Changes in one tag do not affect any other tag.
+- **Manual Control**: The user is always in control. There is no automatic switching. You facilitate switching by using `use-tag <name>`.
+- **Full CLI & MCP Support**: All tag management commands are available through both the CLI and MCP tools for you to use. Refer to @`taskmaster.md` for a full command list.
+
+---
+
+## Task Complexity Analysis
+
+-   Run `analyze_project_complexity` / `task-master analyze-complexity --research` (see @`taskmaster.md`) for comprehensive analysis
+-   Review complexity report via `complexity_report` / `task-master complexity-report` (see @`taskmaster.md`) for a formatted, readable version.
+-   Focus on tasks with highest complexity scores (8-10) for detailed breakdown
+-   Use analysis results to determine appropriate subtask allocation
+-   Note that reports are automatically used by the `expand_task` tool/command
+
+## Task Breakdown Process
+
+-   Use `expand_task` / `task-master expand --id=<id>`. It automatically uses the complexity report if found, otherwise generates default number of subtasks.
+-   Use `--num=<number>` to specify an explicit number of subtasks, overriding defaults or complexity report recommendations.
+-   Add `--research` flag to leverage Perplexity AI for research-backed expansion.
+-   Add `--force` flag to clear existing subtasks before generating new ones (default is to append).
+-   Use `--prompt="<context>"` to provide additional context when needed.
+-   Review and adjust generated subtasks as necessary.
+-   Use `expand_all` tool or `task-master expand --all` to expand multiple pending tasks at once, respecting flags like `--force` and `--research`.
+-   If subtasks need complete replacement (regardless of the `--force` flag on `expand`), clear them first with `clear_subtasks` / `task-master clear-subtasks --id=<id>`.
+
+## Implementation Drift Handling
+
+-   When implementation differs significantly from planned approach
+-   When future tasks need modification due to current implementation choices
+-   When new dependencies or requirements emerge
+-   Use `update` / `task-master update --from=<futureTaskId> --prompt='<explanation>\nUpdate context...' --research` to update multiple future tasks.
+-   Use `update_task` / `task-master update-task --id=<taskId> --prompt='<explanation>\nUpdate context...' --research` to update a single specific task.
+
+## Task Status Management
+
+-   Use 'pending' for tasks ready to be worked on
+-   Use 'done' for completed and verified tasks
+-   Use 'deferred' for postponed tasks
+-   Add custom status values as needed for project-specific workflows
+
+## Task Structure Fields
+
+- **id**: Unique identifier for the task (Example: `1`, `1.1`)
+- **title**: Brief, descriptive title (Example: `"Initialize Repo"`)
+- **description**: Concise summary of what the task involves (Example: `"Create a new repository, set up initial structure."`)
+- **status**: Current state of the task (Example: `"pending"`, `"done"`, `"deferred"`)
+- **dependencies**: IDs of prerequisite tasks (Example: `[1, 2.1]`)
+    - Dependencies are displayed with status indicators (✅ for completed, ⏱️ for pending)
+    - This helps quickly identify which prerequisite tasks are blocking work
+- **priority**: Importance level (Example: `"high"`, `"medium"`, `"low"`)
+- **details**: In-depth implementation instructions (Example: `"Use GitHub client ID/secret, handle callback, set session token."`) 
+- **testStrategy**: Verification approach (Example: `"Deploy and call endpoint to confirm 'Hello World' response."`) 
+- **subtasks**: List of smaller, more specific tasks (Example: `[{"id": 1, "title": "Configure OAuth", ...}]`) 
+- Refer to task structure details (previously linked to `tasks.md`).
+
+## Configuration Management (Updated)
+
+Taskmaster configuration is managed through two main mechanisms:
+
+1.  **`.taskmaster/config.json` File (Primary):**
+    *   Located in the project root directory.
+    *   Stores most configuration settings: AI model selections (main, research, fallback), parameters (max tokens, temperature), logging level, default subtasks/priority, project name, etc.
+    *   **Tagged System Settings**: Includes `global.defaultTag` (defaults to "master") and `tags` section for tag management configuration.
+    *   **Managed via `task-master models --setup` command.** Do not edit manually unless you know what you are doing.
+    *   **View/Set specific models via `task-master models` command or `models` MCP tool.**
+    *   Created automatically when you run `task-master models --setup` for the first time or during tagged system migration.
+
+2.  **Environment Variables (`.env` / `mcp.json`):**
+    *   Used **only** for sensitive API keys and specific endpoint URLs.
+    *   Place API keys (one per provider) in a `.env` file in the project root for CLI usage.
+    *   For MCP/Kiro integration, configure these keys in the `env` section of `.kiro/mcp.json`.
+    *   Available keys/variables: See `assets/env.example` or the Configuration section in the command reference (previously linked to `taskmaster.md`).
+
+3.  **`.taskmaster/state.json` File (Tagged System State):**
+    *   Tracks current tag context and migration status.
+    *   Automatically created during tagged system migration.
+    *   Contains: `currentTag`, `lastSwitched`, `migrationNoticeShown`.
+
+**Important:** Non-API key settings (like model selections, `MAX_TOKENS`, `TASKMASTER_LOG_LEVEL`) are **no longer configured via environment variables**. Use the `task-master models` command (or `--setup` for interactive configuration) or the `models` MCP tool.
+**If AI commands FAIL in MCP** verify that the API key for the selected provider is present in the `env` section of `.kiro/mcp.json`.
+**If AI commands FAIL in CLI** verify that the API key for the selected provider is present in the `.env` file in the root of the project.
+
+## Rules Management
+
+Taskmaster supports multiple AI coding assistant rule sets that can be configured during project initialization or managed afterward:
+
+- **Available Profiles**: Claude Code, Cline, Codex, Kiro, Roo Code, Trae, Windsurf (claude, cline, codex, kiro, roo, trae, windsurf)
+- **During Initialization**: Use `task-master init --rules kiro,windsurf` to specify which rule sets to include
+- **After Initialization**: Use `task-master rules add <profiles>` or `task-master rules remove <profiles>` to manage rule sets
+- **Interactive Setup**: Use `task-master rules setup` to launch an interactive prompt for selecting rule profiles
+- **Default Behavior**: If no `--rules` flag is specified during initialization, all available rule profiles are included
+- **Rule Structure**: Each profile creates its own directory (e.g., `.kiro/steering`, `.roo/rules`) with appropriate configuration files
+
+## Determining the Next Task
+
+- Run `next_task` / `task-master next` to show the next task to work on.
+- The command identifies tasks with all dependencies satisfied
+- Tasks are prioritized by priority level, dependency count, and ID
+- The command shows comprehensive task information including:
+    - Basic task details and description
+    - Implementation details
+    - Subtasks (if they exist)
+    - Contextual suggested actions
+- Recommended before starting any new development work
+- Respects your project's dependency structure
+- Ensures tasks are completed in the appropriate sequence
+- Provides ready-to-use commands for common task actions
+
+## Viewing Specific Task Details
+
+- Run `get_task` / `task-master show <id>` to view a specific task.
+- Use dot notation for subtasks: `task-master show 1.2` (shows subtask 2 of task 1)
+- Displays comprehensive information similar to the next command, but for a specific task
+- For parent tasks, shows all subtasks and their current status
+- For subtasks, shows parent task information and relationship
+- Provides contextual suggested actions appropriate for the specific task
+- Useful for examining task details before implementation or checking status
+
+## Managing Task Dependencies
+
+- Use `add_dependency` / `task-master add-dependency --id=<id> --depends-on=<id>` to add a dependency.
+- Use `remove_dependency` / `task-master remove-dependency --id=<id> --depends-on=<id>` to remove a dependency.
+- The system prevents circular dependencies and duplicate dependency entries
+- Dependencies are checked for existence before being added or removed
+- Task files are automatically regenerated after dependency changes
+- Dependencies are visualized with status indicators in task listings and files
+
+## Task Reorganization
+
+- Use `move_task` / `task-master move --from=<id> --to=<id>` to move tasks or subtasks within the hierarchy
+- This command supports several use cases:
+  - Moving a standalone task to become a subtask (e.g., `--from=5 --to=7`)
+  - Moving a subtask to become a standalone task (e.g., `--from=5.2 --to=7`) 
+  - Moving a subtask to a different parent (e.g., `--from=5.2 --to=7.3`)
+  - Reordering subtasks within the same parent (e.g., `--from=5.2 --to=5.4`)
+  - Moving a task to a new, non-existent ID position (e.g., `--from=5 --to=25`)
+  - Moving multiple tasks at once using comma-separated IDs (e.g., `--from=10,11,12 --to=16,17,18`)
+- The system includes validation to prevent data loss:
+  - Allows moving to non-existent IDs by creating placeholder tasks
+  - Prevents moving to existing task IDs that have content (to avoid overwriting)
+  - Validates source tasks exist before attempting to move them
+- The system maintains proper parent-child relationships and dependency integrity
+- Task files are automatically regenerated after the move operation
+- This provides greater flexibility in organizing and refining your task structure as project understanding evolves
+- This is especially useful when dealing with potential merge conflicts arising from teams creating tasks on separate branches. Solve these conflicts very easily by moving your tasks and keeping theirs.
+
+## Iterative Subtask Implementation
+
+Once a task has been broken down into subtasks using `expand_task` or similar methods, follow this iterative process for implementation:
+
+1.  **Understand the Goal (Preparation):**
+    *   Use `get_task` / `task-master show <subtaskId>` (see @`taskmaster.md`) to thoroughly understand the specific goals and requirements of the subtask.
+
+2.  **Initial Exploration & Planning (Iteration 1):**
+    *   This is the first attempt at creating a concrete implementation plan.
+    *   Explore the codebase to identify the precise files, functions, and even specific lines of code that will need modification.
+    *   Determine the intended code changes (diffs) and their locations.
+    *   Gather *all* relevant details from this exploration phase.
+
+3.  **Log the Plan:**
+    *   Run `update_subtask` / `task-master update-subtask --id=<subtaskId> --prompt='<detailed plan>'`.
+    *   Provide the *complete and detailed* findings from the exploration phase in the prompt. Include file paths, line numbers, proposed diffs, reasoning, and any potential challenges identified. Do not omit details. The goal is to create a rich, timestamped log within the subtask's `details`.
+
+4.  **Verify the Plan:**
+    *   Run `get_task` / `task-master show <subtaskId>` again to confirm that the detailed implementation plan has been successfully appended to the subtask's details.
+
+5.  **Begin Implementation:**
+    *   Set the subtask status using `set_task_status` / `task-master set-status --id=<subtaskId> --status=in-progress`.
+    *   Start coding based on the logged plan.
+
+6.  **Refine and Log Progress (Iteration 2+):**
+    *   As implementation progresses, you will encounter challenges, discover nuances, or confirm successful approaches.
+    *   **Before appending new information**: Briefly review the *existing* details logged in the subtask (using `get_task` or recalling from context) to ensure the update adds fresh insights and avoids redundancy.
+    *   **Regularly** use `update_subtask` / `task-master update-subtask --id=<subtaskId> --prompt='<update details>\n- What worked...\n- What didn't work...'` to append new findings.
+    *   **Crucially, log:**
+        *   What worked ("fundamental truths" discovered).
+        *   What didn't work and why (to avoid repeating mistakes).
+        *   Specific code snippets or configurations that were successful.
+        *   Decisions made, especially if confirmed with user input.
+        *   Any deviations from the initial plan and the reasoning.
+    *   The objective is to continuously enrich the subtask's details, creating a log of the implementation journey that helps the AI (and human developers) learn, adapt, and avoid repeating errors.
+
+7.  **Review & Update Rules (Post-Implementation):**
+    *   Once the implementation for the subtask is functionally complete, review all code changes and the relevant chat history.
+    *   Identify any new or modified code patterns, conventions, or best practices established during the implementation.
+    *   Create new or update existing rules following internal guidelines (previously linked to `cursor_rules.md` and `self_improve.md`).
+
+8.  **Mark Task Complete:**
+    *   After verifying the implementation and updating any necessary rules, mark the subtask as completed: `set_task_status` / `task-master set-status --id=<subtaskId> --status=done`.
+
+9.  **Commit Changes (If using Git):**
+    *   Stage the relevant code changes and any updated/new rule files (`git add .`).
+    *   Craft a comprehensive Git commit message summarizing the work done for the subtask, including both code implementation and any rule adjustments.
+    *   Execute the commit command directly in the terminal (e.g., `git commit -m 'feat(module): Implement feature X for subtask <subtaskId>\n\n- Details about changes...\n- Updated rule Y for pattern Z'`).
+    *   Consider if a Changeset is needed according to internal versioning guidelines (previously linked to `changeset.md`). If so, run `npm run changeset`, stage the generated file, and amend the commit or create a new one.
+
+10. **Proceed to Next Subtask:**
+    *   Identify the next subtask (e.g., using `next_task` / `task-master next`).
+
+## Code Analysis & Refactoring Techniques
+
+- **Top-Level Function Search**:
+    - Useful for understanding module structure or planning refactors.
+    - Use grep/ripgrep to find exported functions/constants:
+      `rg "export (async function|function|const) \w+"` or similar patterns.
+    - Can help compare functions between files during migrations or identify potential naming conflicts.

+# Taskmaster Tool & Command Reference
+
+This document provides a detailed reference for interacting with Taskmaster, covering both the recommended MCP tools, suitable for integrations like Kiro, and the corresponding `task-master` CLI commands, designed for direct user interaction or fallback.
+
+**Note:** For interacting with Taskmaster programmatically or via integrated tools, using the **MCP tools is strongly recommended** due to better performance, structured data, and error handling. The CLI commands serve as a user-friendly alternative and fallback. 
+
+**Important:** Several MCP tools involve AI processing... The AI-powered tools include `parse_prd`, `analyze_project_complexity`, `update_subtask`, `update_task`, `update`, `expand_all`, `expand_task`, and `add_task`.
+
+**🏷️ Tagged Task Lists System:** Task Master now supports **tagged task lists** for multi-context task management. This allows you to maintain separate, isolated lists of tasks for different features, branches, or experiments. Existing projects are seamlessly migrated to use a default "master" tag. Most commands now support a `--tag <name>` flag to specify which context to operate on. If omitted, commands use the currently active tag.
+
+---
+
+## Initialization & Setup
+
+### 1. Initialize Project (`init`)
+
+*   **MCP Tool:** `initialize_project`
+*   **CLI Command:** `task-master init [options]`
+*   **Description:** `Set up the basic Taskmaster file structure and configuration in the current directory for a new project.`
+*   **Key CLI Options:**
+    *   `--name <name>`: `Set the name for your project in Taskmaster's configuration.`
+    *   `--description <text>`: `Provide a brief description for your project.`
+    *   `--version <version>`: `Set the initial version for your project, e.g., '0.1.0'.`
+    *   `-y, --yes`: `Initialize Taskmaster quickly using default settings without interactive prompts.`
+*   **Usage:** Run this once at the beginning of a new project.
+*   **MCP Variant Description:** `Set up the basic Taskmaster file structure and configuration in the current directory for a new project by running the 'task-master init' command.`
+*   **Key MCP Parameters/Options:**
+    *   `projectName`: `Set the name for your project.` (CLI: `--name <name>`)
+    *   `projectDescription`: `Provide a brief description for your project.` (CLI: `--description <text>`)
+    *   `projectVersion`: `Set the initial version for your project, e.g., '0.1.0'.` (CLI: `--version <version>`)
+    *   `authorName`: `Author name.` (CLI: `--author <author>`)
+    *   `skipInstall`: `Skip installing dependencies. Default is false.` (CLI: `--skip-install`)
+    *   `addAliases`: `Add shell aliases tm and taskmaster. Default is false.` (CLI: `--aliases`)
+    *   `yes`: `Skip prompts and use defaults/provided arguments. Default is false.` (CLI: `-y, --yes`)
+*   **Usage:** Run this once at the beginning of a new project, typically via an integrated tool like Kiro. Operates on the current working directory of the MCP server. 
+*   **Important:** Once complete, you *MUST* parse a prd in order to generate tasks. There will be no tasks files until then. The next step after initializing should be to create a PRD using the example PRD in .taskmaster/templates/example_prd.txt. 
+*   **Tagging:** Use the `--tag` option to parse the PRD into a specific, non-default tag context. If the tag doesn't exist, it will be created automatically. Example: `task-master parse-prd spec.txt --tag=new-feature`.
+
+### 2. Parse PRD (`parse_prd`)
+
+*   **MCP Tool:** `parse_prd`
+*   **CLI Command:** `task-master parse-prd [file] [options]`
+*   **Description:** `Parse a Product Requirements Document, PRD, or text file with Taskmaster to automatically generate an initial set of tasks in tasks.json.`
+*   **Key Parameters/Options:**
+    *   `input`: `Path to your PRD or requirements text file that Taskmaster should parse for tasks.` (CLI: `[file]` positional or `-i, --input <file>`)
+    *   `output`: `Specify where Taskmaster should save the generated 'tasks.json' file. Defaults to '.taskmaster/tasks/tasks.json'.` (CLI: `-o, --output <file>`)
+    *   `numTasks`: `Approximate number of top-level tasks Taskmaster should aim to generate from the document.` (CLI: `-n, --num-tasks <number>`)
+    *   `force`: `Use this to allow Taskmaster to overwrite an existing 'tasks.json' without asking for confirmation.` (CLI: `-f, --force`)
+*   **Usage:** Useful for bootstrapping a project from an existing requirements document.
+*   **Notes:** Task Master will strictly adhere to any specific requirements mentioned in the PRD, such as libraries, database schemas, frameworks, tech stacks, etc., while filling in any gaps where the PRD isn't fully specified. Tasks are designed to provide the most direct implementation path while avoiding over-engineering.
+*   **Important:** This MCP tool makes AI calls and can take up to a minute to complete. Please inform users to hang tight while the operation is in progress. If the user does not have a PRD, suggest discussing their idea and then use the example PRD in `.taskmaster/templates/example_prd.txt` as a template for creating the PRD based on their idea, for use with `parse-prd`.
+
+---
+
+## AI Model Configuration
+
+### 2. Manage Models (`models`)
+*   **MCP Tool:** `models`
+*   **CLI Command:** `task-master models [options]`
+*   **Description:** `View the current AI model configuration or set specific models for different roles (main, research, fallback). Allows setting custom model IDs for Ollama and OpenRouter.`
+*   **Key MCP Parameters/Options:**
+    *   `setMain <model_id>`: `Set the primary model ID for task generation/updates.` (CLI: `--set-main <model_id>`)
+    *   `setResearch <model_id>`: `Set the model ID for research-backed operations.` (CLI: `--set-research <model_id>`)
+    *   `setFallback <model_id>`: `Set the model ID to use if the primary fails.` (CLI: `--set-fallback <model_id>`)
+    *   `ollama <boolean>`: `Indicates the set model ID is a custom Ollama model.` (CLI: `--ollama`)
+    *   `openrouter <boolean>`: `Indicates the set model ID is a custom OpenRouter model.` (CLI: `--openrouter`)
+    *   `listAvailableModels <boolean>`: `If true, lists available models not currently assigned to a role.` (CLI: No direct equivalent; CLI lists available automatically)
+    *   `projectRoot <string>`: `Optional. Absolute path to the project root directory.` (CLI: Determined automatically)
+*   **Key CLI Options:**
+    *   `--set-main <model_id>`: `Set the primary model.`
+    *   `--set-research <model_id>`: `Set the research model.`
+    *   `--set-fallback <model_id>`: `Set the fallback model.`
+    *   `--ollama`: `Specify that the provided model ID is for Ollama (use with --set-*).`
+    *   `--openrouter`: `Specify that the provided model ID is for OpenRouter (use with --set-*). Validates against OpenRouter API.`
+    *   `--bedrock`: `Specify that the provided model ID is for AWS Bedrock (use with --set-*).`
+    *   `--setup`: `Run interactive setup to configure models, including custom Ollama/OpenRouter IDs.`
+*   **Usage (MCP):** Call without set flags to get current config. Use `setMain`, `setResearch`, or `setFallback` with a valid model ID to update the configuration. Use `listAvailableModels: true` to get a list of unassigned models. To set a custom model, provide the model ID and set `ollama: true` or `openrouter: true`.
+*   **Usage (CLI):** Run without flags to view current configuration and available models. Use set flags to update specific roles. Use `--setup` for guided configuration, including custom models. To set a custom model via flags, use `--set-<role>=<model_id>` along with either `--ollama` or `--openrouter`.
+*   **Notes:** Configuration is stored in `.taskmaster/config.json` in the project root. This command/tool modifies that file. Use `listAvailableModels` or `task-master models` to see internally supported models. OpenRouter custom models are validated against their live API. Ollama custom models are not validated live.
+*   **API note:** API keys for selected AI providers (based on their model) need to exist in the mcp.json file to be accessible in MCP context. The API keys must be present in the local .env file for the CLI to be able to read them.
+*   **Model costs:** The costs in supported models are expressed in dollars. An input/output value of 3 is $3.00. A value of 0.8 is $0.80. 
+*   **Warning:** DO NOT MANUALLY EDIT THE .taskmaster/config.json FILE. Use the included commands either in the MCP or CLI format as needed. Always prioritize MCP tools when available and use the CLI as a fallback.

+
+*   **API Keys (Required for corresponding provider):**
+    *   `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`
+    *   `PERPLEXITY_API_KEY`
+    *   `OPENAI_API_KEY`
+    *   `GOOGLE_API_KEY`
+    *   `MISTRAL_API_KEY`
+    *   `AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY` (Requires `AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT` too)
+    *   `OPENROUTER_API_KEY`
+    *   `XAI_API_KEY`
+    *   `OLLAMA_API_KEY` (Requires `OLLAMA_BASE_URL` too)
+*   **Endpoints (Optional/Provider Specific inside .taskmaster/config.json):**
+    *   `AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT`
+    *   `OLLAMA_BASE_URL` (Default: `http://localhost:11434/api`)
+
+**Set API keys** in your **`.env`** file in the project root (for CLI use) or within the `env` section of your **`.kiro/mcp.json`** file (for MCP/Kiro integration). All other settings (model choice, max tokens, temperature, log level, custom endpoints) are managed in `.taskmaster/config.json` via `task-master models` command or `models` MCP tool.

+# Taskmaster Hook-Driven Workflow
+
+## Core Principle: Hooks Automate Task Management
+
+When working with Taskmaster in Kiro, **avoid manually marking tasks as done**. The hook system automatically handles task completion based on:
+
+- **Test Success**: `[TM] Test Success Task Completer` detects passing tests and prompts for task completion
+- **Code Changes**: `[TM] Code Change Task Tracker` monitors implementation progress
+- **Dependency Chains**: `[TM] Task Dependency Auto-Progression` auto-starts dependent tasks
+
+## AI Assistant Workflow
+
+Follow this pattern when implementing features:
+
+1. **Implement First**: Write code, create tests, make changes
+2. **Save Frequently**: Hooks trigger on file saves to track progress automatically
+3. **Let Hooks Decide**: Allow hooks to detect completion rather than manually setting status
+4. **Respond to Prompts**: Confirm when hooks suggest task completion
+
+## Key Rules for AI Assistants
+
+- **Never use `tm set-status --status=done`** unless hooks fail to detect completion
+- **Always write tests** - they provide the most reliable completion signal
+- **Save files after implementation** - this triggers progress tracking
+- **Trust hook suggestions** - if no completion prompt appears, more work may be needed
+
+## Automatic Behaviors
+
+The hook system provides:
+
+- **Progress Logging**: Implementation details automatically added to task notes
+- **Evidence-Based Completion**: Tasks marked done only when criteria are met
+- **Dependency Management**: Next tasks auto-started when dependencies complete
+- **Natural Flow**: Focus on coding, not task management overhead
+
+## Manual Override Cases
+
+Only manually set task status for:
+
+- Documentation-only tasks
+- Tasks without testable outcomes
+- Emergency fixes without proper test coverage
+
+Use `tm set-status` sparingly - prefer hook-driven completion.
+
+## Implementation Pattern
+
+```
+1. Implement feature → Save file
+2. Write tests → Save test file
+3. Tests pass → Hook prompts completion
+4. Confirm completion → Next task auto-starts
+```
+
+This workflow ensures proper task tracking while maintaining development flow.

+
+## MCP Integration
+
+Task Master provides an MCP server that Claude Code can connect to. Configure 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": "OPENAI_API_KEY_HERE",
+        "GOOGLE_API_KEY": "GOOGLE_API_KEY_HERE",
+        "XAI_API_KEY": "XAI_API_KEY_HERE",
+        "OPENROUTER_API_KEY": "OPENROUTER_API_KEY_HERE",
+        "MISTRAL_API_KEY": "MISTRAL_API_KEY_HERE",
+        "AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY": "AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY_HERE",
+        "OLLAMA_API_KEY": "OLLAMA_API_KEY_HERE"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Essential MCP Tools
+
+```javascript
+help; // = shows available taskmaster commands
+// Project setup
+initialize_project; // = task-master init
+parse_prd; // = task-master parse-prd
+
+// Daily workflow
+get_tasks; // = task-master list

+```
+
+## Claude Code Workflow Integration
+
+### Standard Development Workflow
+
+#### 1. Project Initialization
+
+```bash
+# Initialize Task Master
+task-master init
+
+# Create or obtain PRD, then parse it
+task-master parse-prd .taskmaster/docs/prd.txt
+
+# Analyze complexity and expand tasks
+task-master analyze-complexity --research
+task-master expand --all --research
+```
+
+If tasks already exist, another PRD can be parsed (with new information only!) using parse-prd with --append flag. This will add the generated tasks to the existing list of tasks..
+
+#### 2. Daily Development Loop
+
+```bash
+# Start each session
+task-master next                           # Find next available task
+task-master show <id>                     # Review task details
+
+# During implementation, check in code context into the tasks and subtasks
+task-master update-subtask --id=<id> --prompt="implementation notes..."
+
+# Complete tasks
+task-master set-status --id=<id> --status=done
+```
+
+#### 3. Multi-Claude Workflows
+
+For complex projects, use multiple Claude Code sessions:
+
+```bash
+# Terminal 1: Main implementation
+cd project && claude
+
+# Terminal 2: Testing and validation
+cd project-test-worktree && claude
+
+# Terminal 3: Documentation updates
+cd project-docs-worktree && claude
+```
+
+### Custom Slash Commands
+
+Create `.claude/commands/taskmaster-next.md`:
+
+```markdown
+Find the next available Task Master task and show its details.
+
+Steps:
+
+1. Run `task-master next` to get the next task
+2. If a task is available, run `task-master show <id>` for full details
+3. Provide a summary of what needs to be implemented
+4. Suggest the first implementation step
+```
+
+Create `.claude/commands/taskmaster-complete.md`:
+
+```markdown
+Complete a Task Master task: $ARGUMENTS
+
+Steps:
+
+1. Review the current task with `task-master show $ARGUMENTS`
+2. Verify all implementation is complete
+3. Run any tests related to this task
+4. Mark as complete: `task-master set-status --id=$ARGUMENTS --status=done`
+5. Show the next available task with `task-master next`
+```
+
+## Tool Allowlist Recommendations
+
+Add to `.claude/settings.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "allowedTools": [
+    "Edit",
+    "Bash(task-master *)",
+    "Bash(git commit:*)",
+    "Bash(git add:*)",
+    "Bash(npm run *)",
+    "mcp__task_master_ai__*"
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+## Configuration & Setup
+
+### API Keys Required
+
+At least **one** of these API keys must be configured:
+
+- `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` (Claude models) - **Recommended**
+- `PERPLEXITY_API_KEY` (Research features) - **Highly recommended**
+- `OPENAI_API_KEY` (GPT models)
+- `GOOGLE_API_KEY` (Gemini models)
+- `MISTRAL_API_KEY` (Mistral models)
+- `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` (Multiple models)
+- `XAI_API_KEY` (Grok models)
+
+An API key is required for any provider used across any of the 3 roles defined in the `models` command.
+
+### Model Configuration
+
+```bash
+# Interactive setup (recommended)
+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
+```
+
+## Task Structure & IDs
+
+### Task ID Format
+
+- Main tasks: `1`, `2`, `3`, etc.
+- Subtasks: `1.1`, `1.2`, `2.1`, etc.
+- Sub-subtasks: `1.1.1`, `1.1.2`, etc.
+
+### Task Status Values
+
+- `pending` - Ready to work on
+- `in-progress` - Currently being worked on
+- `done` - Completed and verified
+- `deferred` - Postponed
+- `cancelled` - No longer needed
+- `blocked` - Waiting on external factors
+
+### Task Fields
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "1.2",
+  "title": "Implement user authentication",
+  "description": "Set up JWT-based auth system",
+  "status": "pending",
+  "priority": "high",
+  "dependencies": ["1.1"],
+  "details": "Use bcrypt for hashing, JWT for tokens...",
+  "testStrategy": "Unit tests for auth functions, integration tests for login flow",
+  "subtasks": []
+}
+```
+
+## Claude Code Best Practices with Task Master
+
+### Context Management
+
+- Use `/clear` between different tasks to maintain focus
+- This CLAUDE.md file is automatically loaded for context
+- Use `task-master show <id>` to pull specific task context when needed
+
+### Iterative Implementation
+
+1. `task-master show <subtask-id>` - Understand requirements
+2. Explore codebase and plan implementation
+3. `task-master update-subtask --id=<id> --prompt="detailed plan"` - Log plan
+4. `task-master set-status --id=<id> --status=in-progress` - Start work
+5. Implement code following logged plan
+6. `task-master update-subtask --id=<id> --prompt="what worked/didn't work"` - Log progress
+7. `task-master set-status --id=<id> --status=done` - Complete task
+
+### Complex Workflows with Checklists
+
+For large migrations or multi-step processes:
+
+1. Create a markdown PRD file describing the new changes: `touch task-migration-checklist.md` (prds can be .txt or .md)
+2. Use Taskmaster to parse the new prd with `task-master parse-prd --append` (also available in MCP)
+3. Use Taskmaster to expand the newly generated tasks into subtasks. Consdier using `analyze-complexity` with the correct --to and --from IDs (the new ids) to identify the ideal subtask amounts for each task. Then expand them.
+4. Work through items systematically, checking them off as completed
+5. Use `task-master update-subtask` to log progress on each task/subtask and/or updating/researching them before/during implementation if getting stuck
+
+### Git Integration
+
+Task Master works well with `gh` CLI:
+
+```bash
+# Create PR for completed task
+gh pr create --title "Complete task 1.2: User authentication" --body "Implements JWT auth system as specified in task 1.2"
+
+# Reference task in commits
+git commit -m "feat: implement JWT auth (task 1.2)"
+```
+
+### Parallel Development with Git Worktrees
+
+```bash
+# Create worktrees for parallel task development
+git worktree add ../project-auth feature/auth-system
+git worktree add ../project-api feature/api-refactor
+
+# Run Claude Code in each worktree
+cd ../project-auth && claude    # Terminal 1: Auth work
+cd ../project-api && claude     # Terminal 2: API work
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### AI Commands Failing
+
+```bash
+# Check API keys are configured
+cat .env                           # For CLI usage
+
+# Verify model configuration
+task-master models
+
+# Test with different model
+task-master models --set-fallback gpt-4o-mini
+```
+
+### MCP Connection Issues
+
+- Check `.mcp.json` configuration
+- Verify Node.js installation
+- Use `--mcp-debug` flag when starting Claude Code
+- Use CLI as fallback if MCP unavailable
+
+### Task File Sync Issues
+
+```bash
+# Regenerate task files from tasks.json
+task-master generate
+
+# Fix dependency issues
+task-master fix-dependencies
+```
+
+DO NOT RE-INITIALIZE. That will not do anything beyond re-adding the same Taskmaster core files.
+
+## Important Notes
+
+### AI-Powered Operations
+
+These commands make AI calls and may take up to a minute:
+
+- `parse_prd` / `task-master parse-prd`
+- `analyze_project_complexity` / `task-master analyze-complexity`
+- `expand_task` / `task-master expand`
+- `expand_all` / `task-master expand --all`
+- `add_task` / `task-master add-task`
+- `update` / `task-master update`
+- `update_task` / `task-master update-task`
+- `update_subtask` / `task-master update-subtask`
+
+### File Management
+
+- Never manually edit `tasks.json` - use commands instead
+- Never manually edit `.taskmaster/config.json` - use `task-master models`
+- Task markdown files in `tasks/` are auto-generated
+- Run `task-master generate` after manual changes to tasks.json
+
+### Claude Code Session Management
+
+- Use `/clear` frequently to maintain focused context
+- Create custom slash commands for repeated Task Master workflows
+- Configure tool allowlist to streamline permissions
+- Use headless mode for automation: `claude -p "task-master next"`
+
+### Multi-Task Updates
+
+- Use `update --from=<id>` to update multiple future tasks
+- Use `update-task --id=<id>` for single task updates
+- Use `update-subtask --id=<id>` for implementation logging
+
+### Research Mode
+
+- Add `--research` flag for research-based AI enhancement
+- Requires a research model API key like Perplexity (`PERPLEXITY_API_KEY`) in environment
+- Provides more informed task creation and updates
+- Recommended for complex technical tasks
+
+---
+
+_This guide ensures Claude Code has immediate access to Task Master's essential functionality for agentic development workflows._

+# Task Master Migration Roadmap
+
+## Overview
+Gradual migration from scripts-based architecture to a clean monorepo with separated concerns.
+
+## Architecture Vision
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│                  User Interfaces                 │
+├──────────┬──────────┬──────────┬────────────────┤
+│  @tm/cli │ @tm/mcp  │ @tm/ext  │  @tm/web      │
+│  (CLI)   │  (MCP)   │  (VSCode)│  (Future)     │
+└──────────┴──────────┴──────────┴────────────────┘
+                    │
+                    ▼
+        ┌──────────────────────┐
+        │      @tm/core        │
+        │  (Business Logic)    │
+        └──────────────────────┘
+```
+
+## Migration Phases
+
+### Phase 1: Core Extraction ✅ (In Progress)
+**Goal**: Move all business logic to @tm/core
+
+- [x] Create @tm/core package structure
+- [x] Move types and interfaces
+- [x] Implement TaskMasterCore facade
+- [x] Move storage adapters
+- [x] Move task services
+- [ ] Move AI providers
+- [ ] Move parser logic
+- [ ] Complete test coverage
+
+### Phase 2: CLI Package Creation 🚧 (Started)
+**Goal**: Create @tm/cli as a thin presentation layer
+
+- [x] Create @tm/cli package structure
+- [x] Implement Command interface pattern
+- [x] Create CommandRegistry
+- [x] Build legacy bridge/adapter
+- [x] Migrate list-tasks command
+- [ ] Migrate remaining commands one by one
+- [ ] Remove UI logic from core
+
+### Phase 3: Transitional Integration
+**Goal**: Use new packages in existing scripts without breaking changes
+
+```javascript
+// scripts/modules/commands.js gradually adopts new commands
+import { ListTasksCommand } from '@tm/cli';
+const listCommand = new ListTasksCommand();
+
+// Old interface remains the same
+programInstance
+  .command('list')
+  .action(async (options) => {
+    // Use new command internally
+    const result = await listCommand.execute(convertOptions(options));
+  });
+```
+
+### Phase 4: MCP Package
+**Goal**: Separate MCP server as its own package
+
+- [ ] Create @tm/mcp package
+- [ ] Move MCP server code
+- [ ] Use @tm/core for all logic
+- [ ] MCP becomes a thin RPC layer
+
+### Phase 5: Complete Migration
+**Goal**: Remove old scripts, pure monorepo
+
+- [ ] All commands migrated to @tm/cli
+- [ ] Remove scripts/modules/task-manager/*
+- [ ] Remove scripts/modules/commands.js
+- [ ] Update bin/task-master.js to use @tm/cli
+- [ ] Clean up dependencies
+
+## Current Transitional Strategy
+
+### 1. Adapter Pattern (commands-adapter.js)
+```javascript
+// Checks if new CLI is available and uses it
+// Falls back to legacy implementation if not
+export async function listTasksAdapter(...args) {
+  if (cliAvailable) {
+    return useNewImplementation(...args);
+  }
+  return useLegacyImplementation(...args);
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Command Bridge Pattern
+```javascript
+// Allows new commands to work in old code
+const bridge = new CommandBridge(new ListTasksCommand());
+const data = await bridge.run(legacyOptions); // Legacy style
+const result = await bridge.execute(newOptions); // New style
+```
+
+### 3. Gradual File Migration
+Instead of big-bang refactoring:
+1. Create new implementation in @tm/cli
+2. Add adapter in commands-adapter.js
+3. Update commands.js to use adapter
+4. Test both paths work
+5. Eventually remove adapter when all migrated
+
+## Benefits of This Approach
+
+1. **No Breaking Changes**: Existing CLI continues to work
+2. **Incremental PRs**: Each command can be migrated separately
+3. **Parallel Development**: New features can use new architecture
+4. **Easy Rollback**: Can disable new implementation if issues
+5. **Clear Separation**: Business logic (core) vs presentation (cli/mcp/etc)
+
+## Example PR Sequence
+
+### PR 1: Core Package Setup ✅
+- Create @tm/core
+- Move types and interfaces
+- Basic TaskMasterCore implementation
+
+### PR 2: CLI Package Foundation ✅
+- Create @tm/cli
+- Command interface and registry
+- Legacy bridge utilities
+
+### PR 3: First Command Migration
+- Migrate list-tasks to new system
+- Add adapter in scripts
+- Test both implementations
+
+### PR 4-N: Migrate Commands One by One
+- Each PR migrates 1-2 related commands
+- Small, reviewable changes
+- Continuous delivery
+
+### Final PR: Cleanup
+- Remove legacy implementations
+- Remove adapters
+- Update documentation
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+### Dual Testing During Migration
+```javascript
+describe('List Tasks', () => {
+  it('works with legacy implementation', async () => {
+    // Force legacy
+    const result = await legacyListTasks(...);
+    expect(result).toBeDefined();
+  });
+
+  it('works with new implementation', async () => {
+    // Force new
+    const command = new ListTasksCommand();
+    const result = await command.execute(...);
+    expect(result.success).toBe(true);
+  });
+
+  it('adapter chooses correctly', async () => {
+    // Let adapter decide
+    const result = await listTasksAdapter(...);
+    expect(result).toBeDefined();
+  });
+});
+```
+
+## Success Metrics
+
+- [ ] All commands migrated without breaking changes
+- [ ] Test coverage maintained or improved
+- [ ] Performance maintained or improved
+- [ ] Cleaner, more maintainable codebase
+- [ ] Easy to add new interfaces (web, desktop, etc.)
+
+## Notes for Contributors
+
+1. **Keep PRs Small**: Migrate one command at a time
+2. **Test Both Paths**: Ensure legacy and new both work
+3. **Document Changes**: Update this roadmap as you go
+4. **Communicate**: Discuss in PRs if architecture needs adjustment
+
+This is a living document - update as the migration progresses!

+## Summary
+
+- Put the existing git and test workflows on rails: a repeatable, automated process that can run autonomously, with guardrails and a compact TUI for visibility.
+
+- Flow: for a selected task, create a branch named with the tag + task id → generate tests for the first subtask (red) using the Surgical Test Generator → implement code (green) → verify tests → commit → repeat per subtask → final verify → push → open PR against the default branch.
+
+- Build on existing rules: .cursor/rules/git_workflow.mdc, .cursor/rules/test_workflow.mdc, .claude/agents/surgical-test-generator.md, and existing CLI/core services.
+
+## Goals
+
+- Deterministic, resumable automation to execute the TDD loop per subtask with minimal human intervention.
+
+- Strong guardrails: never commit to the default branch; only commit when tests pass; enforce status transitions; persist logs/state for debuggability.
+
+- Visibility: a compact terminal UI (like lazygit) to pick tag, view tasks, and start work; right-side pane opens an executor terminal (via tmux) for agent coding.
+
+- Extensible: framework-agnostic test generation via the Surgical Test Generator; detect and use the repo’s test command for execution with coverage thresholds.
+
+## Non‑Goals (initial)
+
+- Full multi-language runner parity beyond detection and executing the project’s test command.
+
+- Complex GUI; start with CLI/TUI + tmux pane. IDE/extension can hook into the same state later.
+
+- Rich executor selection UX (codex/gemini/claude) — we’ll prompt per run; defaults can come later.
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+- One command can autonomously complete a task's subtasks via TDD and open a PR when done.
+
+- All commits made on a branch that includes the tag and task id (see Branch Naming); no commits to the default branch directly.
+
+- Every subtask iteration: failing tests added first (red), then code added to pass them (green), commit only after green.
+
+- End-to-end logs + artifacts stored in .taskmaster/reports/runs/<timestamp-or-id>/.
+
+## Success Metrics (Phase 1)
+
+- **Adoption**: 80% of tasks in a pilot repo completed via `tm autopilot`
+- **Safety**: 0 commits to default branch; 100% of commits have green tests
+- **Efficiency**: Average time from task start to PR < 30min for simple subtasks
+- **Reliability**: < 5% of runs require manual intervention (timeout/conflicts)
+
+## User Stories
+
+- As a developer, I can run tm autopilot <taskId> and watch a structured, safe workflow execute.
+
+- As a reviewer, I can inspect commits per subtask, and a PR summarizing the work when the task completes.
+
+- As an operator, I can see current step, active subtask, tests status, and logs in a compact CLI view and read a final run report.
+
+## Example Workflow Traces
+
+### Happy Path: Complete a 3-subtask feature
+
+```bash
+# Developer starts
+$ tm autopilot 42
+→ Checks preflight: ✓ clean tree, ✓ npm test detected
+→ Creates branch: analytics/task-42-user-metrics
+→ Subtask 42.1: "Add metrics schema"
+  RED: generates test_metrics_schema.test.js → 3 failures
+  GREEN: implements schema.js → all pass
+  COMMIT: "feat(metrics): add metrics schema (task 42.1)"
+→ Subtask 42.2: "Add collection endpoint"
+  RED: generates test_metrics_endpoint.test.js → 5 failures
+  GREEN: implements api/metrics.js → all pass
+  COMMIT: "feat(metrics): add collection endpoint (task 42.2)"

+
+## High‑Level Workflow
+
+1) Pre‑flight
+
+   - Verify clean working tree or confirm staging/commit policy (configurable).
+
+   - Detect repo type and the project’s test command (e.g., npm test, pnpm test, pytest, go test).
+
+   - Validate tools: git, gh (optional for PR), node/npm, and (if used) claude CLI.
+
+   - Load TaskMaster state and selected task; if no subtasks exist, automatically run “expand” before working.
+
+2) Branch & Tag Setup
+
+   - Checkout default branch and update (optional), then create a branch using Branch Naming (below).
+
+   - Map branch ↔ tag via existing tag management; explicitly set active tag to the branch’s tag.
+
+3) Subtask Loop (for each pending/in-progress subtask in dependency order)
+
+   - Select next eligible subtask using tm-core TaskService getNextTask() and subtask eligibility logic.
+
+   - Red: generate or update failing tests for the subtask
+
+     - Use the Surgical Test Generator system prompt .claude/agents/surgical-test-generator.md) to produce high-signal tests following project conventions.
+
+     - Run tests to confirm red; record results. If not red (already passing), skip to next subtask or escalate.
+
+   - Green: implement code to pass tests
+
+     - Use executor to implement changes (initial: claude CLI prompt with focused context).
+
+     - Re-run tests until green or timeout/backoff policy triggers.
+
+   - Commit: when green
+
+     - Commit tests + code with conventional commit message. Optionally update subtask status to done.
+
+     - Persist run step metadata/logs.
+
+4) Finalization
+
+   - Run full test suite and coverage (if configured); optionally lint/format.
+
+   - Commit any final adjustments.
+
+   - Push branch (ask user to confirm); create PR (via gh pr create) targeting the default branch. Title format: Task #<id> [<tag>]: <title>.
+
+5) Post‑Run
+
+   - Update task status if desired (e.g., review).
+
+   - Persist run report (JSON + markdown summary) to .taskmaster/reports/runs/<run-id>/.
+
+## Guardrails
+
+- Never commit to the default branch.
+
+- Commit only if all tests (targeted and suite) pass; allow override flags.
+
+- Enforce 80% coverage thresholds (lines/branches/functions/statements) by default; configurable.
+
+- Timebox/model ops and retries; if not green within N attempts, pause with actionable state for resume.
+
+- Always log actions, commands, and outcomes; include dry-run mode.
+
+- Ask before branch creation, pushing, and opening a PR unless --no-confirm is set.
+
+## Integration Points (Current Repo)
+
+- CLI: apps/cli provides command structure and UI components.
+
+  - New command: tm autopilot (alias: task-master autopilot).
+
+  - Reuse UI components under apps/cli/src/ui/components/ for headers/task details/next-task.
+
+- Core services: packages/tm-core
+
+  - TaskService for selection, status, tags.
+
+  - TaskExecutionService for prompt formatting and executor prep.
+
+  - Executors: claude executor and ExecutorFactory to run external tools.
+
+  - Proposed new: WorkflowOrchestrator to drive the autonomous loop and emit progress events.
+
+- Tag/Git utilities: scripts/modules/utils/git-utils.js and scripts/modules/task-manager/tag-management.js for branch→tag mapping and explicit tag switching.
+
+- Rules: .cursor/rules/git_workflow.mdc and .cursor/rules/test_workflow.mdc to steer behavior and ensure consistency.
+
+- Test generation prompt: .claude/agents/surgical-test-generator.md.
+
+## Proposed Components
+
+- Orchestrator (tm-core): WorkflowOrchestrator (new)
+
+  - State machine driving phases: Preflight → Branch/Tag → SubtaskIter (Red/Green/Commit) → Finalize → PR.
+
+  - Exposes an evented API (progress events) that the CLI can render.
+
+  - Stores run state artifacts.
+
+- Test Runner Adapter
+
+  - Detects and runs tests via the project’s test command (e.g., npm test), with targeted runs where feasible.
+
+  - API: runTargeted(files/pattern), runAll(), report summary (failures, duration, coverage), enforce 80% threshold by default.
+
+- Git/PR Adapter
+
+  - Encapsulates git ops: branch create/checkout, add/commit, push.
+
+  - Optional gh integration to open PR; fallback to instructions if gh unavailable.
+
+  - Confirmation gates for branch creation and pushes.
+
+- Prompt/Exec Adapter
+
+  - Uses existing executor service to call the selected coding assistant (initially claude) with tight prompts: task/subtask context, surgical tests first, then minimal code to green.
+
+- Run State + Reporting
+
+  - JSONL log of steps, timestamps, commands, test results.
+
+  - Markdown summary for PR description and post-run artifact.
+
+## CLI UX (MVP)
+
+- Command: tm autopilot [taskId]
+
+  - Flags: --dry-run, --no-push, --no-pr, --no-confirm, --force, --max-attempts <n>, --runner <auto|custom>, --commit-scope <scope>
+
+  - Output: compact header (project, tag, branch), current phase, subtask line, last test summary, next actions.
+
+- Resume: If interrupted, tm autopilot --resume picks up from last checkpoint in run state.
+
+### TUI with tmux (Linear Execution)
+
+- Left pane: Tag selector, task list (status/priority), start/expand shortcuts; "Start" triggers the next task or a selected task.
+
+- Right pane: Executor terminal (tmux split) that runs the coding agent (claude-code/codex). Autopilot can hand over to the right pane during green.
+
+- MCP integration: use MCP tools for task queries/updates and for shell/test invocations where available.

+### Implementation Notes
+
+- **Left pane**: `apps/cli/src/ui/tui/navigator.ts` (new, uses `blessed` or `ink`)
+- **Right pane**: spawned via `tmux split-window -h` running `tm autopilot --executor-mode`
+- **Communication**: shared state file `.taskmaster/state/current-run.json` + file watching or event stream
+- **Keybindings**:
+  - `s` - Start selected task
+  - `p` - Pause/resume current run
+  - `q` - Quit (with confirmation if run active)
+  - `↑/↓` - Navigate task list
+  - `Enter` - Expand/collapse subtasks
+
+## Prompt Composition (Detailed)
+
+### System Prompt Assembly
+
+Prompts are composed in three layers:
+
+1. **Base rules** (loaded in order from `.cursor/rules/` and `.claude/agents/`):
+   - `git_workflow.mdc` → git commit conventions, branch policy, PR guidelines
+   - `test_workflow.mdc` → TDD loop requirements, coverage thresholds, test structure
+   - `surgical-test-generator.md` → test generation methodology, project-specific test patterns
+
+2. **Task context injection**:
+   ```
+   You are implementing:
+   Task #42 [analytics]: User metrics tracking
+   Subtask 42.2: Add collection endpoint
+
+   Description:
+   Implement POST /api/metrics endpoint to collect user metrics events
+
+   Acceptance criteria:
+   - POST /api/metrics accepts { userId, eventType, timestamp }
+   - Validates input schema (reject missing/invalid fields)
+   - Persists to database
+   - Returns 201 on success with created record
+   - Returns 400 on validation errors
+
+   Dependencies:
+   - Subtask 42.1 (metrics schema) is complete
+
+   Current phase: RED (generate failing tests)
+   Test command: npm test
+   Test file convention: src/**/*.test.js (vitest framework detected)
+   Branch: analytics/task-42-user-metrics
+   Project language: JavaScript (Node.js)
+   ```
+
+3. **Phase-specific instructions**:
+   - **RED phase**: "Generate minimal failing tests for this subtask. Do NOT implement any production code. Only create test files. Confirm tests fail with clear error messages indicating missing implementation."
+   - **GREEN phase**: "Implement minimal code to pass the failing tests. Follow existing project patterns in `src/`. Only modify files necessary for this subtask. Keep changes focused and reviewable."

+You are implementing:
+Task #42.2: Add collection endpoint
+
+Description:
+Implement POST /api/metrics endpoint to collect user metrics events
+
+Acceptance criteria:
+- POST /api/metrics accepts { userId, eventType, timestamp }
+- Validates input schema (reject missing/invalid fields)
+- Persists to database using MetricsSchema from subtask 42.1
+- Returns 201 on success with created record
+- Returns 400 on validation errors with details
+
+Dependencies: Subtask 42.1 (metrics schema) is complete
+
+<INSTRUCTION>
+Generate failing tests for this subtask. Follow project conventions:
+- Test file: src/api/__tests__/metrics.test.js
+- Framework: vitest (detected from package.json)
+- Test cases to cover:
+  * POST /api/metrics with valid payload → should return 201 (will fail: endpoint not implemented)
+  * POST /api/metrics with missing userId → should return 400 (will fail: validation not implemented)
+  * POST /api/metrics with invalid timestamp → should return 400 (will fail: validation not implemented)
+  * POST /api/metrics should persist to database → should save record (will fail: persistence not implemented)
+
+Do NOT implement the endpoint code yet. Only create test file(s).
+Confirm tests fail with messages like "Cannot POST /api/metrics" or "endpoint not defined".
+
+Output format:
+1. File path to create: src/api/__tests__/metrics.test.js
+2. Complete test code
+3. Command to run: npm test src/api/__tests__/metrics.test.js
+```

+    ✗ should return 400 with invalid timestamp (endpoint not found)
+    ✗ should persist to database (endpoint not found)
+```
+
+<INSTRUCTION>
+Implement minimal code to make all tests pass.
+
+Guidelines:
+- Create/modify file: src/api/metrics.js
+- Use existing patterns from src/api/ (e.g., src/api/users.js for reference)
+- Import MetricsSchema from subtask 42.1 (src/models/schema.js)
+- Implement validation, persistence, and response handling
+- Follow project error handling conventions
+- Keep implementation focused on this subtask only
+
+After implementation:
+1. Run tests: npm test src/api/__tests__/metrics.test.js
+2. Confirm all 5 tests pass
+3. Report results
+
+Output format:
+1. File(s) created/modified

+
+## Execution Model
+
+### Orchestration vs Direct Execution
+
+The autopilot system uses an **orchestration model** rather than direct code execution:
+
+**Orchestrator Role** (tm-core WorkflowOrchestrator):
+- Maintains state machine tracking current phase (RED/GREEN/COMMIT) per subtask
+- Validates preconditions (tests pass, git state clean, etc.)
+- Returns "work units" describing what needs to be done next
+- Records completion and advances to next phase
+- Persists state for resumability
+
+**Executor Role** (Claude Code/AI session via MCP):
+- Queries orchestrator for next work unit
+- Executes the work (generates tests, writes code, runs tests, makes commits)
+- Reports results back to orchestrator
+- Handles file operations and tool invocations
+
+**Why This Approach?**
+- Leverages existing AI capabilities (Claude Code) rather than duplicating them
+- MCP protocol provides clean separation between state management and execution
+- Allows human oversight and intervention at each phase
+- Simpler to implement: orchestrator is pure state logic, no code generation needed
+- Enables multiple executor types (Claude Code, other AI tools, human developers)
+
+**Example Flow**:
+```typescript
+// Claude Code (via MCP) queries orchestrator
+const workUnit = await orchestrator.getNextWorkUnit('42');

+
+## Design Decisions
+
+### Why commit per subtask instead of per task?
+
+**Decision**: Commit after each subtask's green state, not after the entire task.
+
+**Rationale**:
+- Atomic commits make code review easier (reviewers can see logical progression)
+- Easier to revert a single subtask if it causes issues downstream
+- Matches the TDD loop's natural checkpoint and cognitive boundary
+- Provides resumability points if the run is interrupted
+
+**Trade-off**: More commits per task (can use squash-merge in PRs if desired)
+
+### Why not support parallel subtask execution?
+
+**Decision**: Sequential subtask execution in Phase 1; parallel execution deferred to Phase 3.
+
+**Rationale**:
+- Subtasks often have implicit dependencies (e.g., schema before endpoint, endpoint before UI)
+- Simpler orchestrator state machine (less complexity = faster to ship)
+- Parallel execution requires explicit dependency DAG and conflict resolution
+- Can be added in Phase 3 once core workflow is proven stable
+
+**Trade-off**: Slower for truly independent subtasks (mitigated by keeping subtasks small and focused)
+
+### Why require 80% coverage by default?
+
+**Decision**: Enforce 80% coverage threshold (lines/branches/functions/statements) before allowing commits.
+
+**Rationale**:
+- Industry standard baseline for production code quality
+- Forces test generation to be comprehensive, not superficial
+- Configurable per project via `.taskmaster/config.json` if too strict
+- Prevents "green tests" that only test happy paths
+
+**Trade-off**: May require more test generation iterations; can be lowered per project
+
+### Why use tmux instead of a rich GUI?
+
+**Decision**: MVP uses tmux split panes for TUI, not Electron/web-based GUI.
+
+**Rationale**:
+- Tmux is universally available on dev machines; no installation burden
+- Terminal-first workflows match developer mental model (no context switching)
+- Simpler to implement and maintain; can add GUI later via extensions
+- State stored in files allows IDE/extension integration without coupling
+
+**Trade-off**: Less visual polish than GUI; requires tmux familiarity
+
+### Why not support multiple executors (codex/gemini/claude) in Phase 1?
+
+**Decision**: Start with Claude executor only; add others in Phase 2+.
+
+**Rationale**:
+- Reduces scope and complexity for initial delivery
+- Claude Code already integrated with existing executor service
+- Executor abstraction already exists; adding more is straightforward later
+- Different executors may need different prompt strategies (requires experimentation)
+
+**Trade-off**: Users locked to Claude initially; can work around with manual executor selection
+
+## Risks and Mitigations
+
+- Model hallucination/large diffs: restrict prompt scope; enforce minimal changes; show diff previews (optional) before commit.
+
+- Flaky tests: allow retries, isolate targeted runs for speed, then full suite before commit.
+
+- Environment variability: detect runners/tools; provide fallbacks and actionable errors.
+
+- PR creation fails: still push and print manual commands; persist PR body to reuse.
+
+## Open Questions
+
+1) Slugging rules for branch names; any length limits or normalization beyond {slug} token sanitize?
+
+2) PR body standard sections beyond run report (e.g., checklist, coverage table)?
+
+3) Default executor prompt fine-tuning once codex/gemini integration is available.
+
+4) Where to store persistent TUI state (pane layout, last selection) in .taskmaster/state.json?
+
+## Branch Naming
+
+- Include both the tag and the task id in the branch name to make lineage explicit.
+
+- Default pattern: <tag>/task-<id>[-slug] (e.g., master/task-12, tag-analytics/task-4-user-auth).
+
+- Configurable via .taskmaster/config.json: git.branchPattern supports tokens {tag}, {id}, {slug}.
+
+## PR Base Branch
+
+- Use the repository’s default branch (detected via git) unless overridden.
+
+- Title format: Task #<id> [<tag>]: <title>.
+
+## RPG Mapping (Repository Planning Graph)
+
+Functional nodes (capabilities):
+
+- Autopilot Orchestration → drives TDD loop and lifecycle
+
+- Test Generation (Surgical) → produces failing tests from subtask context
+
+- Test Execution + Coverage → runs suite, enforces thresholds
+
+- Git/Branch/PR Management → safe operations and PR creation
+
+- TUI/Terminal Integration → interactive control and visibility via tmux
+
+- MCP Integration → structured task/status/context operations
+
+Structural nodes (code organization):
+
+- packages/tm-core:
+
+  - services/workflow-orchestrator.ts (new)
+
+  - services/test-runner-adapter.ts (new)
+
+  - services/git-adapter.ts (new)
+
+  - existing: task-service.ts, task-execution-service.ts, executors/*

+
+  - src/ui/tui/ (new tmux/TUI helpers)
+
+- scripts/modules:
+
+  - reuse utils/git-utils.js, task-manager/tag-management.js
+
+- .claude/agents/:
+
+  - surgical-test-generator.md
+
+Edges (data/control flow):
+
+- Autopilot → Test Generation → Test Execution → Git Commit → loop
+
+- Autopilot → Git Adapter (branch, tag, PR)
+
+- Autopilot → TUI (event stream) → tmux pane control
+
+- Autopilot → MCP tools for task/status updates
+
+- Test Execution → Coverage gate → Autopilot decision
+
+Topological traversal (implementation order):
+
+1) Git/Test adapters (foundations)
+
+2) Orchestrator skeleton + events
+
+3) CLI autopilot command and dry-run
+
+4) Surgical test-gen integration and execution gate
+
+5) PR creation, run reports, resumability
+
+## Phased Roadmap
+
+- Phase 0: Spike
+
+  - Implement CLI skeleton tm autopilot with dry-run showing planned steps from a real task + subtasks.
+
+  - Detect test runner (package.json) and git state; render a preflight report.
+
+- Phase 1: Core Rails (State Machine & Orchestration)
+
+  - Implement WorkflowOrchestrator in tm-core as a **state machine** that tracks TDD phases per subtask.
+
+  - Orchestrator **guides** the current AI session (Claude Code/MCP client) rather than executing code itself.
+
+  - Add Git/Test adapters for status checks and validation (not direct execution).
+
+  - WorkflowOrchestrator API:
+    - `getNextWorkUnit(taskId)` → returns next phase to execute (RED/GREEN/COMMIT) with context
+    - `completeWorkUnit(taskId, subtaskId, phase, result)` → records completion and advances state
+    - `getRunState(taskId)` → returns current progress and resumability data
+
+  - MCP integration: expose work unit endpoints so Claude Code can query "what to do next" and report back.
+
+  - Branch/tag mapping via existing tag-management APIs.
+
+  - Run report persisted under .taskmaster/reports/runs/ with state checkpoints for resumability.
+
+- Phase 2: PR + Resumability
+
+  - Add gh PR creation with well-formed body using the run report.
+
+  - Introduce resumable checkpoints and --resume flag.
+
+  - Add coverage enforcement and optional lint/format step.
+
+- Phase 3: Extensibility + Guardrails
+
+  - Add support for basic pytest/go test adapters.
+
+  - Add safeguards: diff preview mode, manual confirm gates, aggressive minimal-change prompts.
+
+  - Optional: small TUI panel and extension panel leveraging the same run state file.

+# Overview
+Add a new CLI command: `task-master start <task_id>` (alias: `tm start <task_id>`). This command hard-codes `claude-code` as the executor, fetches task details, builds a standardized prompt, runs claude-code, shows the result, checks for git changes, and auto-marks the task as done if successful.
+
+We follow the Commander class pattern, reuse task retrieval from `show` command flow. Extremely minimal for 1-hour hackathon timeline.
+
+# Core Features
+- `start` command (Commander class style) 
+- Hard-coded executor: `claude-code`
+- Standardized prompt designed for minimal changes following existing patterns
+- Shows claude-code output (no streaming)
+- Git status check for success detection
+- Auto-mark task done if successful
+
+# User Experience
+```
+task-master start 12
+```
+1) Fetches Task #12 details
+2) Builds standardized prompt with task context
+3) Runs claude-code with the prompt
+4) Shows output
+5) Checks git status for changes
+6) Auto-marks task done if changes detected
+</context>
+
+<PRD>
+# Technical Architecture
+
+- Command pattern:
+  - Create `apps/cli/src/commands/start.command.ts` modeled on [list.command.ts](mdc:apps/cli/src/commands/list.command.ts) and task lookup from [show.command.ts](mdc:apps/cli/src/commands/show.command.ts)
+
+- Task retrieval:
+  - Use `@tm/core` via `createTaskMasterCore` to get task by ID
+  - Extract: id, title, description, details
+
+- Executor (ultra-simple approach):
+  - Execute `claude "full prompt here"` command directly
+  - The prompt tells Claude to first run `tm show <task_id>` to get task details
+  - Then tells Claude to implement the code changes
+  - This opens Claude CLI interface naturally in the current terminal
+  - No subprocess management needed - just execute the command
+
+- Execution flow:
+  1) Validate `<task_id>` exists; exit with error if not
+  2) Build standardized prompt that includes instructions to run `tm show <task_id>`
+  3) Execute `claude "prompt"` command directly in terminal
+  4) Claude CLI opens, runs `tm show`, then implements changes
+  5) After Claude session ends, run `git status --porcelain` to detect changes
+  6) If changes detected, auto-run `task-master set-status --id=<task_id> --status=done`
+
+- Success criteria:
+  - Success = exit code 0 AND git shows modified/created files
+  - Print changed file paths; warn if no changes detected
+
+# Development Roadmap
+
+MVP (ship in ~1 hour):
+1) Implement `start.command.ts` (Commander class), parse `<task_id>`
+2) Validate task exists via tm-core 
+3) Build prompt that tells Claude to run `tm show <task_id>` then implement
+4) Execute `claude "prompt"` command, then check git status and auto-mark done
+
+# Risks and Mitigations
+- Executor availability: Error clearly if `claude-code` provider fails
+- False success: Git-change heuristic acceptable for hackathon MVP
+
+# Appendix
+
+**Standardized Prompt Template:**
+```
+You are an AI coding assistant with access to this repository's codebase.
+
+First, run this command to get the task details:
+tm show <task_id>
+
+Then implement the task with these requirements:
+- Make the SMALLEST number of code changes possible
+- Follow ALL existing patterns in the codebase (you have access to analyze the code)
+- Do NOT over-engineer the solution
+- Use existing files/functions/patterns wherever possible
+- When complete, print: COMPLETED: <brief summary of changes>
+
+Begin by running tm show <task_id> to understand what needs to be implemented.

+# Research Session
+
+## Initial Query
+
+**Question:** how can i improve the scope-up and scope-down command
+
+**Response:**
+
+## Improving the `scope-up` and `scope-down` Commands
+
+**Clarify Command Purpose and User Experience**
+
+- Ensure the commands have clear, intuitive behavior. For example, `scope-up` should consistently broaden the context or task view, while `scope-down` should reliably narrow it.
+- Provide immediate, user-friendly feedback after each command, indicating what changed (e.g., "Now viewing parent task and all subtasks" or "Focused on subtask: X").
+- Document the commands with examples in your `docs/command-reference.md` and `docs/examples.md` to help users understand their effects and use cases.
+
+**Enhance Context Awareness**
+
+- Make the commands context-sensitive: if the user is already at the top or bottom of the scope hierarchy, return a helpful message instead of failing silently.
+- Allow optional arguments to specify the exact level or target (e.g., `scope-up 2` to move up two levels, or `scope-down <subtask-id>` to jump directly to a subtask).
+
+**Robust Error Handling and Validation**
+
+- Implement checks to prevent invalid operations, such as attempting to scope up from the root or scope down when no subtasks exist.
+- Provide clear error messages and suggestions for next steps, improving user trust and reducing confusion[1][5].
+
+**Integrate with Task and Tag Systems**
+
+- Ensure `scope-up` and `scope-down` interact smoothly with your tagging and task hierarchy features. For example, scoping up from a subtask should show the parent task and its context, while scoping down should allow selection from available subtasks or related tags.
+- Consider supporting batch operations, such as scoping down into all subtasks and displaying them in a summarized view.
+
+**Improve Performance and Synchronization**
+
+- Optimize the underlying logic to minimize delays, especially in large task trees. Use asynchronous operations where possible to keep the UI responsive.
+- If the commands trigger data loading or context switching, ensure synchronization so that subsequent commands operate on the correct, updated context[2][4].
+
+**Testing and Stakeholder Feedback**
+
+- Add or expand unit and integration tests for these commands (see `tests/unit/commands.test.js` and `integration/cli/commands.test.js`) to cover edge cases and ensure reliability.
+- Gather feedback from users and stakeholders to identify pain points and desired enhancements, then iterate on the command design and implementation[1][5].
+
+**Example Improvements Table**
+
+| Area                | Current Issue                | Suggested Improvement                        |
+|---------------------|-----------------------------|----------------------------------------------|
+| User Feedback       | Minimal or unclear output    | Add explicit, contextual messages            |
+| Error Handling      | Silent failures              | Informative errors and recovery suggestions  |
+| Flexibility         | Only single-level movement   | Support multi-level and targeted navigation  |
+| Integration         | Limited context awareness    | Sync with tags, parent/child relationships   |
+| Performance         | Slow on large hierarchies    | Optimize data access and UI updates          |
+
+By focusing on these areas, you can make `scope-up` and `scope-down` more robust, user-friendly, and aligned with best practices in scope management and command design[1][5].

+
+## Follow-up 1
+
+**Question:** how might i do this relative to the tag system?
+
+**Response:**
+
+## Integrating Scope-Up and Scope-Down with the Tag System
+
+**Conceptual Mapping**
+
+- In your project, *scope-up* and *scope-down* commands currently operate on the task hierarchy, broadening or narrowing the context by moving between parent and child tasks.
+- The tag system provides a parallel, orthogonal way to group and filter tasks—tags can represent categories, priorities, or any custom grouping, independent of strict parent/child relationships.
+
+**How to Make Scope Commands Tag-Aware**
+
+- **Scoping by Tag**: Allow users to "scope-down" into a tag, viewing only tasks associated with that tag. Conversely, "scope-up" could move from a specific tag context back to the broader task list or to a parent tag grouping if you support tag hierarchies.
+- **Tag-Scoped Views**: When a tag is active as the current scope, all navigation and operations (listing, editing, etc.) are limited to tasks with that tag. This is similar to how some systems let you set the "Tag Scope" to filter navigation and search to only tagged items[1][5].
+- **Combining Hierarchy and Tags**: Enable compound scoping, such as "all subtasks of Task X that also have Tag Y." This can be implemented by intersecting the results of hierarchical and tag-based queries.
+
+**Implementation Strategies**
+
+- **Scope Stack or Context Object**: Maintain a stack or context object that tracks both the current task scope and any active tag filters. Each scope change (up/down or tag in/out) updates this context.
+- **Commands**:
+  - `scope-down --tag <tag>`: Narrows the view to tasks with the specified tag.
+  - `scope-up --tag`: Removes the tag filter, broadening the view.
+  - `scope-down <subtask-id> --tag <tag>`: Narrows to a specific subtask *and* applies a tag filter.
+- **Tag Hierarchies (Optional)**: If your tag system supports parent/child tags or tag groups, allow "scope-up" to move from a specific tag to its parent tag or group, and "scope-down" to move into a child tag[4][5].
+
+**Example User Flows**
+
+- *Scoping Down by Tag*:  
+  User runs `scope-down --tag urgent` → Only tasks tagged "urgent" are shown.
+- *Combining Task and Tag*:  
+  User runs `scope-down <task-id> --tag frontend` → Only subtasks of `<task-id>` that are tagged "frontend" are shown.
+- *Scoping Up from Tag*:  
+  User runs `scope-up --tag` → Removes the tag filter, returning to the previous broader context.
+
+**Technical Considerations**
+
+- **Efficient Filtering**: Use indexed queries or in-memory filtering to efficiently combine tag and hierarchy filters, especially for large task sets.
+- **Feedback and UI**: Always display the current scope context (e.g., "Viewing tasks tagged 'urgent' under 'Feature X'") so users understand what they're seeing.
+- **Extensibility**: Design the scope system so new types of scopes (e.g., by status, assignee) can be added in the future, not just tags and hierarchy.
+
+**Relevant Precedents**
+
+- Tag-based file systems and management tools often implement "scopes" as dynamic groups defined by tag criteria, allowing users to build up complex views by combining tags and other filters[5].
+- Some systems allow scoping into tag management itself, where you can create, edit, or view tags and their associated objects, which could be mirrored in your CLI or UI[4].
+
+**Summary Table**
+
+| Command Example                  | Resulting Scope                                  |
+|----------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------|
+| `scope-down --tag bug`           | All tasks tagged "bug"                           |
+| `scope-down <task-id> --tag api` | Subtasks of `<task-id>` tagged "api"             |
+| `scope-up --tag`                 | Removes tag filter, returns to previous scope    |
+| `scope-down --tag frontend`      | All tasks tagged "frontend"                      |
+
+By integrating tag-based scoping, you make your scope commands more flexible and powerful, supporting both hierarchical and ad-hoc organizational strategies[1][5].

+# Research Session
+
+## Initial Query
+
+**Question:** should i be using any specific libraries for this?
+
+**Response:**
+
+HELL YEAH PARTNER
+
+For implementing a GitHub Issue export feature with bidirectional linking in your project, you absolutely should use a dedicated library for interacting with the GitHub API. This will save you a ton of time, reduce boilerplate, and help you avoid common pitfalls with authentication, pagination, and error handling.
+
+## Recommended Library: PyGithub
+
+- **PyGithub** is the most widely used and well-documented Python library for accessing the GitHub REST API v3. It allows you to manage repositories, issues, user profiles, and more, all with a clean, object-oriented interface[1][2][3][5].
+- It supports all the operations you’ll need for your export feature, including creating issues, updating them, and managing references for bidirectional linking.
+
+### Key Features
+
+- **Authentication**: Easily authenticate with a personal access token.
+- **Issue Management**: Create, update, and link issues programmatically.
+- **Repository Access**: Fetch and manipulate repository data.
+- **User/Org Support**: Works for both user and organization repos.
+- **Pagination & Rate Limiting**: Handles these for you.
+
+### Example Usage
+
+```python
+from github import Github, Auth
+
+# Authenticate with a personal access token
+auth = Auth.Token("your_github_token")
+g = Github(auth=auth)
+
+# Get the repo
+repo = g.get_repo("owner/repo_name")
+
+# Create a new issue
+issue = repo.create_issue(
+    title="Exported from Task Master",
+    body="This issue was created by Task Master. [Task ID: 123]"
+)
+
+# Add a comment or update the issue to include a backlink
+issue.create_comment("Linked to Task Master task #123")
+```
+[3][5]
+
+## Why Not Use Raw Requests?
+
+- While you *can* use the `requests` library to call the GitHub API directly[4], PyGithub abstracts away authentication, error handling, and pagination, making your code much cleaner and less error-prone[2][5].
+
+## Integration Tips
+
+- Store your GitHub token securely (e.g., in environment variables).
+- Use PyGithub’s objects to fetch, create, and update issues.
+- For bidirectional linking, store the GitHub issue URL in your task data and the Task Master task ID in the GitHub issue body or as a label/comment.
+- PyGithub is actively maintained and widely used, so you’ll find plenty of support and documentation.
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+pip install PyGithub
+```
+[3]
+
+## Summary Table
+
+| Library   | Language | API Coverage | Ease of Use | Maintained | Docs/Support |
+|-----------|----------|--------------|-------------|------------|--------------|
+| PyGithub  | Python   | Full         | High        | Yes        | Excellent    |
+| requests  | Python   | Full (manual)| Medium      | Yes        | Good         |
+
+**Use PyGithub for all GitHub API interactions in your export/import features.** It’s the standard for Python projects and will make your implementation faster, safer, and more maintainable[1][2][3][5].
+
+---
+
+## Follow-up 1
+
+**Question:** we don't want to use py github because we have a node project
+
+**Response:**
+
+HELL YEAH PARTNER
+
+For a Node.js project, you should use a Node-native library to interact with the GitHub API instead of PyGithub, which is Python-only. The industry standard for Node.js is **Octokit**, the official GitHub SDK for JavaScript/TypeScript[1][2].
+
+## Why Use Octokit?
+
+- **Official & Complete**: Octokit is maintained by GitHub and covers all REST and GraphQL API endpoints, including issues, repositories, users, and more[1][2].
+- **Universal**: Works in Node.js, browsers, and Deno environments[2].
+- **Typed & Tested**: Comes with TypeScript declarations and 100% test coverage[2].
+- **Authentication**: Supports personal access tokens, GitHub Apps, OAuth, and more.
+- **Pagination & Error Handling**: Handles pagination and common error scenarios out of the box.
+- **Extendable**: Supports plugins and custom hooks for advanced use cases[2].
+
+## How to Use Octokit for GitHub Issue Export
+
+Install Octokit in your Node.js project:
+
+```bash
+npm install @octokit/rest
+```
+
+Basic usage for creating and linking issues:
+
+```js
+const { Octokit } = require("@octokit/rest");
+
+// Authenticate with a personal access token
+const octokit = new Octokit({ auth: process.env.GITHUB_TOKEN });
+
+// Create a new issue
+const { data: issue } = await octokit.issues.create({
+  owner: "owner",
+  repo: "repo_name",
+  title: "Exported from Task Master",
+  body: "This issue was created by Task Master. [Task ID: 123]"
+});
+
+// Add a comment for bidirectional linking
+await octokit.issues.createComment({
+  owner: "owner",
+  repo: "repo_name",
+  issue_number: issue.number,
+  body: "Linked to Task Master task #123"
+});
+```
+
+## Alternatives
+
+- **node-github**: An older library, less maintained than Octokit, but still functional for basic API access[5].
+- **Raw HTTP Requests**: You can use `node-fetch` or `axios` to call the GitHub API directly, but you’ll need to handle authentication, pagination, and error handling yourself[3]. Octokit abstracts all of this for you.
+
+## Summary Table
+
+| Library         | Language | API Coverage | Maintained | TypeScript | Docs/Support |
+|-----------------|----------|--------------|------------|------------|--------------|
+| Octokit         | Node.js  | Full         | Yes        | Yes        | Excellent    |
+| node-github     | Node.js  | Full         | No         | No         | Limited      |
+| Raw HTTP        | Node.js  | Full (manual)| N/A        | N/A        | N/A          |
+
+**Recommendation:** Use Octokit for all GitHub API interactions in your Node.js project. It’s the official, most robust, and best-supported option for your use case[1][2].

+
+## Testing Save Functionality in a Task Management System
+
+**Core Steps for Testing Save Functionality**
+
+- Create or update a task in the system using the CLI or UI.
+- Trigger the save operation (e.g., by issuing a command or clicking a save button).
+- Verify that the data is correctly written to the persistent storage (e.g., `tasks.json`).
+- Reload or re-query the data to ensure the saved changes persist and are accurately reflected.
+- Validate that all required fields and relationships (such as dependencies and subtasks) are preserved and correctly structured.
+
+**Key Test Scenarios**
+
+- **Basic Save:** Add a new task and confirm it appears in `tasks.json` with all fields populated.
+- **Update Save:** Modify an existing task (e.g., change status, description, or priority) and verify the changes are saved.
+- **Subtask and Dependency Preservation:** Update a parent task and ensure that completed subtasks and dependency links remain intact, especially after using commands like `updateTask`.
+- **Batch Operations:** Perform bulk updates or additions and confirm all affected tasks are saved correctly, with no data loss or corruption.
+- **Validation:** Attempt to save invalid data and ensure the system rejects it or provides meaningful error messages, confirming validation logic is enforced.
+
+**Recommended Practices**
+
+- Use automated tests to simulate save operations for various scenarios, including edge cases (e.g., circular dependencies, missing required fields).
+- After each save, reload the data and compare it to the expected state to ensure integrity.
+- Log all save operations and errors for traceability and debugging.
+- Regularly back up the `tasks.json` file to prevent data loss during testing and development.
+
+**Relevant Features from Industry Standards**
+
+- Task management systems typically provide robust save and update mechanisms, ensuring that all task attributes (including dependencies, subtasks, and comments) are consistently maintained[1][2][5].
+- Validation and error handling are critical to prevent corrupt or incomplete saves, especially when handling complex relationships or batch operations[1][5].
+- User feedback (such as success messages or error alerts) is important for confirming save actions and guiding users in case of issues[1][2].
+
+**Example Test Case**
+
+1. Create a task with subtasks and dependencies.
+2. Mark some subtasks as complete.
+3. Use the `updateTask` command to modify the parent task.
+4. Save and reload the data.
+5. Assert that:
+   - The parent task reflects the updates.
+   - Completed subtasks remain marked as complete.
+   - Dependencies are unchanged and valid.
+
+**Summary Table: Save Functionality Test Aspects**
+
+| Aspect                | What to Test                                      | Expected Outcome                        |
+|-----------------------|---------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------|
+| Basic Save            | Add/update task, save, reload                     | Data persists and matches expectations  |
+| Subtask Preservation  | Update parent, check subtask status               | Completed subtasks remain complete      |
+| Dependency Handling   | Save with dependencies, reload                    | Dependencies are intact and valid       |
+| Batch Operations      | Bulk save/update, reload                          | All changes persist, no data loss       |
+| Validation            | Save invalid data                                 | Error is raised, data not corrupted     |
+
+These steps and scenarios ensure that the save functionality is robust, reliable, and meets the requirements of a modern task management system[1][2][5].

+# Research Session
+
+## Initial Query
+
+**Question:** test the fix for duplicate saves - final test
+
+**Response:**
+
+## Steps to Test the Fix for Duplicate Saves
+
+**1. Prepare a Clean Test Environment**
+- Ensure the tasks.json file and any related data stores are in a known, clean state with no pre-existing duplicate entries.
+- Back up the current tasks.json in case rollback is needed.
+
+**2. Define Test Scenarios**
+- Attempt to save a new task with unique data.
+- Attempt to save a task with the same ID or unique identifier as an existing task (simulate a duplicate).
+- Attempt to save a task with the same title or content but a different ID (to test if the fix is based on ID or content).
+- Simultaneously trigger multiple save operations (if the system supports concurrency) to test race conditions.
+
+**3. Execute Manual and Automated Tests**
+- Use the application's UI or API to create and save tasks as per the scenarios above.
+- For each save operation, check the tasks.json file or the data store to verify:
+  - No duplicate entries are created.
+  - Existing tasks are not overwritten unless intended (e.g., for updates).
+  - The system returns appropriate error messages or warnings when a duplicate save is attempted.
+
+**4. Validate System Behavior**
+- Confirm that after all test operations, each task in tasks.json is unique according to the defined criteria (ID, title, or other unique fields).
+- If the system is designed to merge duplicates, verify that merging occurs as expected.
+- If the system is designed to reject duplicates, ensure that the rejection is clear and no duplicate is present.
+
+**5. Test Edge Cases**
+- Attempt to save tasks with minor variations (e.g., whitespace differences, case sensitivity) to ensure the duplicate detection logic is robust.
+- Test with large numbers of tasks to ensure performance and correctness at scale.
+
+**6. Review Logs and Error Handling**
+- Check application logs for any errors or warnings related to duplicate saves.
+- Ensure that error handling is user-friendly and provides actionable feedback.
+
+**7. Regression Testing**
+- Run the full suite of task operations (create, update, delete) to ensure the fix for duplicate saves does not introduce new issues elsewhere in the system.
+
+## Additional Best Practices
+
+- Communicate test results with the team to confirm the fix is effective and to prevent future regressions[1][2][5].
+- Consider implementing automated duplicate detection as part of the save operation to prevent future issues[2][3].
+- Document the test cases and results for future reference and audits.
+
+## Example Test Case Table
+
+| Test Scenario                        | Expected Result                | Actual Result | Pass/Fail |
+|--------------------------------------|-------------------------------|---------------|-----------|
+| Save unique task                     | Task saved                    |               |           |
+| Save duplicate task (same ID)        | Duplicate rejected/merged     |               |           |
+| Save duplicate task (same title)     | Duplicate rejected/merged     |               |           |
+| Simultaneous saves (race condition)  | Only one unique task present  |               |           |
+| Save with minor variations           | No false positives/negatives  |               |           |
+
+Fill in the "Actual Result" and "Pass/Fail" columns during testing.
+
+## Action Items
+
+- Complete all test scenarios above.
+- Document any issues found and retest after fixes.
+- Confirm with stakeholders before closing the issue.

+# Research Session
+
+## Initial Query
+
+**Question:** do we need to add new commands or can we just weaponize the gh cli tool
+
+**Response:**
+
+For the implementation of the `task-master git` command suite to automate git workflows (Task 97), it is possible to leverage the existing **GitHub CLI (`gh`) tool** rather than creating entirely new git commands from scratch. The GitHub CLI provides a rich set of commands that cover many GitHub-related operations such as branch management, pull request handling, workflow triggering, and release management, which can be scripted and integrated into your CLI tool[1][2][3][4].
+
+### Key Points Supporting Weaponizing GitHub CLI:
+
+- **Comprehensive GitHub Operations**: The `gh` CLI supports creating branches, managing pull requests, releases, tags, and even triggering and monitoring GitHub Actions workflows. This aligns well with the requirements of automated branch management, commit generation, and PR description generation in Task 97[1][3].
+
+- **Scripting and Automation Friendly**: GitHub CLI commands can be scripted and integrated into custom workflows or CLI tools. You can create aliases or wrap `gh` commands inside your own CLI commands to provide a seamless user experience while relying on the battle-tested GitHub CLI for underlying operations[1][3].
+
+- **Authentication and Permissions**: `gh` uses environment variables like `GH_TOKEN` or `GITHUB_TOKEN` for authentication, which can be securely managed in CI/CD pipelines or local environments. This simplifies integration without needing to implement custom authentication logic[3][4].
+
+- **Extensibility**: If some specific git workflow features are not directly supported by `gh`, you can extend it with custom scripts or combine it with native git commands. This hybrid approach reduces the need to reinvent core git operations while allowing customization[1].
+
+### Considerations for Your Project:
+
+- Since Task 97 requires **automated branch management** (branch creation, validation, switching, cleanup), **intelligent commit generation**, and **PR description generation**, you can implement these by invoking `gh` commands programmatically within your `task-master git` commands.
+
+- For example, branch creation and switching can be done with native git commands wrapped in your CLI, while PR creation and management can be handled via `gh pr create`, `gh pr merge`, etc.
+
+- You may still need to implement some **custom logic** for commit type detection, branch name validation, and PR description generation based on your task metadata, but the underlying git and GitHub operations can be delegated to `gh`.
+
+- This approach aligns with your existing CLI foundation (Task 2) and leverages a well-supported tool, reducing development effort and increasing reliability.
+
+### Summary
+
+You **do not necessarily need to add entirely new git commands** for Task 97. Instead, you can **weaponize the GitHub CLI (`gh`) tool** by wrapping and scripting its commands within your `task-master git` command suite. This will allow you to automate git workflows efficiently, maintain consistency, and leverage GitHub’s API capabilities without reinventing the wheel[1][2][3][4].
+
+If there are gaps in `gh` functionality for your specific workflow needs, you can supplement with native git commands or custom scripts, but the core git and GitHub operations should be handled by `gh` for best results.
+
+---
+
+## Follow-up 1
+
+**Question:** how does this relate to git worktrees? i hear that they get super complicated when trying to implement them.
+
+**Response:**
+
+Git worktrees allow you to have multiple working directories attached to the same Git repository, each checked out to different branches simultaneously. This enables parallel development workflows without the overhead of cloning the repository multiple times or constantly switching branches in a single working directory[2][3].
+
+However, **implementing or managing git worktrees can get complicated** for several reasons:
+
+- **Complexity for users and tooling:** Managing multiple active worktrees requires careful tracking of which directory corresponds to which branch. This can be confusing and error-prone, especially for novices or when many worktrees are in use simultaneously. Mistakes like committing to the wrong branch or working in the wrong directory are common risks[1].
+
+- **Maintenance overhead:** Worktrees accumulate over time and need to be pruned or cleaned up regularly (`git worktree prune`) to avoid clutter and potential confusion. This adds an extra maintenance step to the workflow[1].
+
+- **Syncing and update challenges:** Each worktree is a separate checkout and can become outdated if not regularly updated from the main repository. This can lead to merge conflicts or redundant work if branches diverge significantly[1].
+
+- **Tooling and integration limitations:** Not all Git tools, scripts, or GUIs fully support worktrees or are optimized for them. This can cause inconsistencies or require additional custom tooling to manage worktrees effectively[1].
+
+- **Performance considerations:** Managing multiple worktrees simultaneously can have performance implications, especially in very large repositories, due to the overhead of maintaining multiple checkouts and metadata[1].
+
+In the context of your project, which involves automating git workflows and possibly wrapping or extending git/GitHub CLI commands, these complexities imply:
+
+- If you consider supporting git worktrees in your `task-master git` command suite, you will need to handle the complexity of managing multiple directories and branches carefully.
+
+- You might need to implement additional logic or tooling to track and manage worktrees, avoid user confusion, and ensure synchronization between them.
+
+- Since your project already plans to leverage the GitHub CLI (`gh`) and native git commands, you could integrate worktree commands (`git worktree add`, `git worktree remove`, `git worktree list`) but should be prepared for the added complexity in workflow management and user documentation.
+
+- Custom wrappers or managers (like the one described in [3]) can help reduce friction by automating worktree creation, switching, and cleanup, which might be a useful approach to consider.
+
+Overall, **git worktrees provide powerful parallel branch management but introduce complexity in implementation and user experience** that must be carefully managed through tooling, automation, and clear documentation[1][3][4].
+
+---
+
+**Summary Table of Git Worktree Challenges and Considerations**
+
+| Aspect                  | Description                                                                                   | Implication for Project                                  |
+|-------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------|
+| User Complexity         | Confusing multiple directories and branches                                                  | Need clear UI/UX and safeguards                          |
+| Maintenance Overhead    | Requires pruning and cleanup of stale worktrees                                              | Automate cleanup or provide commands                     |
+| Syncing Issues         | Worktrees can become outdated or diverge                                                     | Implement update checks and sync workflows               |
+| Tooling Support        | Limited support in some Git tools and GUIs                                                  | May require custom tooling or wrappers                   |
+| Performance            | Overhead in large repos with many worktrees                                                 | Monitor and optimize performance                          |
+| Workflow Automation    | Manual worktree management is tedious                                                       | Build custom managers or wrappers to simplify usage     |
+
+---
+
+Given your project’s focus on automating git workflows and leveraging existing CLI tools, **implementing git worktree support is feasible but will require careful design to handle these complexities effectively**. You may want to start with basic worktree commands and incrementally add automation and safeguards as needed.
+
+---
+
+## Follow-up 2
+
+**Question:** since we already have a way to have separated task lists per branch, couldn't we do the same thing for worktrees? each taskmaster list (tag) would have its own worktree based on the name of the tag?
+
+**Response:**
+
+Yes, you can apply a similar approach used for separated task lists per branch to git worktrees by associating each taskmaster list (tag) with its own git worktree named after the tag. This means each tag would correspond to a dedicated worktree directory checked out to a branch or commit related to that tag, enabling isolated parallel work environments for each task list.
+
+### How This Maps to Git Worktrees
+
+- **Git worktrees** allow multiple working directories linked to the same repository, each checked out to a different branch or commit[1][2]. This lets you work on multiple branches simultaneously without switching contexts in a single directory.
+
+- When you create a worktree with `git worktree add <path> [<branch>]`, Git creates a new linked working tree at `<path>`, optionally checking out a specified branch or creating a new one[1][2]. Naming the worktree directory after the tag (taskmaster list) is straightforward and semantically clear.
+
+- This setup mirrors your existing branch-based task list separation but extends it to physical directories, which can improve workflow isolation and reduce context switching.
+
+### Benefits for Your Project
+
+- **Isolated environments per task list/tag:** Each tag’s worktree can have its own checked-out branch, allowing independent development, testing, or review without interference.
+
+- **Parallel workflows:** Developers can switch between worktrees (directories) instead of switching branches in one directory, reducing errors and improving productivity.
+
+- **Automation potential:** Your `task-master git` commands can automate creating, switching, and cleaning up these worktrees based on tags, similar to how you manage branches and task lists.
+
+### Challenges and Considerations
+
+- **Complexity in management:** Git worktrees add complexity in tracking multiple directories and ensuring users operate in the correct one[1]. Your CLI should provide clear commands and feedback to avoid confusion.
+
+- **Maintenance overhead:** Worktrees need pruning and cleanup (`git worktree prune` or `git worktree remove`) to avoid clutter[1]. Automating cleanup in your tool would be beneficial.
+
+- **Syncing and updates:** Each worktree is a separate checkout and can become outdated. Your automation should include commands to update or rebase worktrees as needed.
+
+- **Tooling support:** Not all Git tools or scripts fully support worktrees, so your CLI wrappers should handle edge cases and provide a consistent experience[1][3].
+
+### Practical Implementation Ideas
+
+- When a new tag (taskmaster list) is created, run `git worktree add` to create a new worktree directory named after the tag.
+
+- Store metadata linking tags to worktree paths in your taskmaster configuration to track and manage them.
+
+- Provide commands like `task-master worktree list`, `task-master worktree add <tag>`, and `task-master worktree remove <tag>` to manage these worktrees.
+
+- Integrate with GitHub CLI (`gh`) and native git commands to automate branch creation, PR handling, and syncing within each worktree.
+
+- Consider inspiration from existing tools like [wt](https://github.com/taecontrol/wt) that automate worktree environment setup and teardown[3].
+
+### Summary
+
+Using git worktrees per taskmaster tag is a feasible and potentially powerful extension of your current branch-based task list separation. It offers isolated, parallel working directories aligned with your tags, improving workflow clarity and reducing branch-switching overhead. However, it requires careful tooling and automation to manage complexity, maintenance, and synchronization effectively. Given your project’s focus on automating git workflows and leveraging CLI tools, implementing this feature incrementally with robust user feedback and cleanup commands would be a practical approach.

+# Task Template Importing System - Product Requirements Document
+
+<context>
+# Overview  
+The Task Template Importing system enables seamless integration of external task templates into the Task Master CLI through automatic file discovery. This system allows users to drop task template files into the tasks directory and immediately access them as new tag contexts without manual import commands or configuration. The solution addresses the need for multi-project task management, team collaboration through shared templates, and clean separation between permanent tasks and temporary project contexts.
+
+# Core Features  
+## Silent Task Template Discovery
+- **What it does**: Automatically scans for `tasks_*.json` files in the tasks directory during tag operations
+- **Why it's important**: Eliminates friction in adding new task contexts and enables zero-configuration workflow
+- **How it works**: File pattern matching extracts tag names from filenames and validates against internal tag keys
+
+## External Tag Resolution System
+- **What it does**: Provides fallback mechanism to external files when tags are not found in main tasks.json
+- **Why it's important**: Maintains clean separation between core tasks and project-specific templates
+- **How it works**: Tag resolution logic checks external files as secondary source while preserving main file precedence
+
+## Read-Only External Tag Access
+- **What it does**: Allows viewing and switching to external tags while preventing modifications
+- **Why it's important**: Protects template integrity and prevents accidental changes to shared templates
+- **How it works**: All task modifications route to main tasks.json regardless of current tag context
+
+## Tag Precedence Management
+- **What it does**: Ensures main tasks.json tags override external files with same tag names
+- **Why it's important**: Prevents conflicts and maintains data integrity
+- **How it works**: Priority system where main file tags take precedence over external file tags
+
+# User Experience  
+## User Personas
+- **Solo Developer**: Manages multiple projects with different task contexts
+- **Team Lead**: Shares standardized task templates across team members
+- **Project Manager**: Organizes tasks by project phases or feature branches
+
+## Key User Flows
+### Template Addition Flow
+1. User receives or creates a `tasks_projectname.json` file
+2. User drops file into `.taskmaster/tasks/` directory
+3. Tag becomes immediately available via `task-master use-tag projectname`
+4. User can list, view, and switch to external tag without configuration
+
+### Template Usage Flow
+1. User runs `task-master tags` to see available tags including external ones
+2. External tags display with `(imported)` indicator
+3. User switches to external tag with `task-master use-tag projectname`
+4. User can view tasks but modifications are routed to main tasks.json
+
+## UI/UX Considerations
+- External tags clearly marked with `(imported)` suffix in listings
+- Visual indicators distinguish between main and external tags
+- Error messages guide users when external files are malformed
+- Read-only warnings when attempting to modify external tag contexts
+</context>

+
+# Risks and Mitigations  
+## Technical Challenges
+
+### File System Performance
+**Risk**: Scanning for external files on every tag operation could impact performance with large directories.
+**Mitigation**: 
+- Implement file modification time caching to avoid unnecessary rescans
+- Use lazy loading for external tag data - only read when accessed
+- Add configurable limits on number of external files to scan
+- Optimize file pattern matching with efficient regex patterns
+
+### External File Corruption
+**Risk**: Malformed or corrupted external JSON files could break tag operations.
+**Mitigation**:
+- Implement robust JSON parsing with comprehensive error handling
+- Add file validation before attempting to parse external files
+- Gracefully skip corrupted files and continue with valid ones
+- Provide clear error messages guiding users to fix malformed files
+
+### Tag Name Conflicts
+**Risk**: External files might contain tag names that conflict with main tasks.json tags.
+**Mitigation**:
+- Implement strict precedence rule: main tasks.json always overrides external files
+- Add warnings when external tags are ignored due to conflicts
+- Document naming conventions to avoid common conflicts
+- Provide validation tools to check for potential conflicts
+
+## MVP Definition
+
+### Core Feature Scope
+**Risk**: Including too many advanced features could delay the core functionality.
+**Mitigation**:
+- Define MVP as basic external file discovery + tag switching
+- Focus on the silent discovery mechanism as the primary value proposition
+- Defer advanced features like nested directories and batch operations
+- Ensure each phase delivers complete, usable functionality
+
+### User Experience Complexity
+**Risk**: The read-only nature of external tags might confuse users.
+**Mitigation**:
+- Provide clear visual indicators for external tags in all interfaces
+- Add explicit warnings when users attempt to modify external tag contexts
+- Document the read-only behavior and its rationale clearly
+- Consider future enhancement for external tag modification workflows
+
+### Backward Compatibility
+**Risk**: Changes to tag resolution logic might break existing workflows.
+**Mitigation**:
+- Maintain existing tag operations unchanged for main tasks.json
+- Add external file support as enhancement, not replacement
+- Test thoroughly with existing task structures and workflows
+- Provide migration path if any breaking changes are necessary
+
+## Resource Constraints
+
+### Development Complexity
+**Risk**: Integration with existing tag management system could be complex.
+**Mitigation**:
+- Phase implementation to minimize risk of breaking existing functionality
+- Create comprehensive test suite covering both main and external tag scenarios
+- Use feature flags to enable/disable external file support during development
+- Implement thorough error handling to prevent system failures
+
+### File System Dependencies
+**Risk**: Different operating systems might handle file operations differently.
+**Mitigation**:
+- Use Node.js built-in file system APIs for cross-platform compatibility
+- Test on multiple operating systems (Windows, macOS, Linux)
+- Handle file path separators and naming conventions properly
+- Add fallback mechanisms for file system access issues
+
+### User Adoption
+**Risk**: Users might not understand or adopt the external file template system.
+**Mitigation**:
+- Create clear documentation with practical examples
+- Provide sample external template files for common use cases
+- Integrate help and guidance directly into the CLI interface
+- Gather user feedback early and iterate on the user experience
+
+# Appendix  
+## External File Naming Convention
+
+### Filename Pattern
+- **Format**: `tasks_[tagname].json`
+- **Examples**: `tasks_feature-auth.json`, `tasks_v2-migration.json`, `tasks_project-alpha.json`
+- **Validation**: Tag name must match internal tag key format (alphanumeric, hyphens, underscores)
+
+### File Structure Requirements
+```json
+{
+  "meta": {
+    "projectName": "Required: Human-readable project name",
+    "version": "Optional: Template version",
+    "templateSource": "Optional: Source identifier",
+    "createdAt": "Optional: ISO-8601 timestamp"
+  },
+  "tags": {
+    "[tagname]": {
+      "meta": {
+        "name": "Required: Tag display name",
+        "description": "Optional: Tag description",
+        "createdAt": "Optional: ISO-8601 timestamp"
+      },
+      "tasks": [
+        // Required: Array of task objects following standard task structure
+      ]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Implementation Functions Specification
+
+### Core Discovery Functions
+```javascript
+// Scan tasks directory for external template files
+function scanForExternalTaskFiles(projectRoot) {
+  // Returns: Array of external file paths
+}
+
+// Extract tag names from external filenames
+function getExternalTagsFromFiles(projectRoot) {
+  // Returns: Array of external tag names
+}
+
+// Read specific external tag data
+function readExternalTagData(projectRoot, tagName) {
+  // Returns: Tag data object or null if not found
+}
+
+// Get combined main and external tags
+function getAvailableTags(projectRoot) {
+  // Returns: Combined tag registry with metadata
+}
+```
+
+### Integration Points
+```javascript
+// Enhanced readJSON with external fallback
+function readJSON(projectRoot, tag = null) {
+  // Modified to check external files when tag not found in main
+}
+
+// Enhanced tags listing with external indicators
+function tags(projectRoot, options = {}) {
+  // Modified to display external tags with (imported) suffix
+}
+
+// Enhanced tag switching with external support
+function useTag(projectRoot, tagName) {
+  // Modified to support switching to external tags (read-only)
+}
+```
+
+## Error Handling Specifications
+
+### File System Errors
+- **ENOENT**: External file not found - gracefully skip and continue
+- **EACCES**: Permission denied - warn user and continue with available files
+- **EISDIR**: Directory instead of file - skip and continue scanning
+
+### JSON Parsing Errors
+- **SyntaxError**: Malformed JSON - skip file and log warning with filename
+- **Missing required fields**: Skip file and provide specific error message
+- **Invalid tag structure**: Skip file and guide user to correct format
+
+### Tag Conflict Resolution
+- **Duplicate tag names**: Main tasks.json takes precedence, log warning
+- **Invalid tag names**: Skip external file and provide naming guidance
+- **Master key in external**: Ignore master key, process other tags normally

+
+See `apps/cli/src/commands/autopilot.command.ts` for implementation.
+
+## Scope
+- Implement CLI skeleton `tm autopilot` with dry-run mode
+- Show planned steps from a real task with subtasks
+- Detect test runner from package.json
+- Detect git state and render preflight report
+
+## Deliverables
+
+### 1. CLI Command Skeleton
+- Create `apps/cli/src/commands/autopilot.command.ts`
+- Support `tm autopilot <taskId>` command
+- Implement `--dry-run` flag
+- Basic help text and usage information
+
+### 2. Preflight Detection System

+
+### 4. Task Loading & Validation
+- Load task from TaskMaster state
+- Validate task exists and has subtasks
+- If no subtasks, show message about needing to expand first
+- Show dependency order for subtasks
+
+## Example Output
+
+```bash
+$ tm autopilot 42 --dry-run
+
+Autopilot Plan for Task #42 [analytics]: User metrics tracking
+─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
+
+Preflight Checks:
+  ✓ Working tree is clean
+  ✓ Test command detected: npm test
+  ✓ Tools available: git, gh, node, npm
+  ✓ Current branch: main (will create new branch)
+  ✓ Task has 3 subtasks ready to execute
+
+Branch & Tag:
+  → Will create branch: analytics/task-42-user-metrics
+  → Will set active tag: analytics
+
+Execution Plan (3 subtasks):
+
+  1. Subtask 42.1: Add metrics schema
+     RED:    Generate tests → src/__tests__/schema.test.js
+     GREEN:  Implement code → src/schema.js
+     COMMIT: "feat(metrics): add metrics schema (task 42.1)"
+
+  2. Subtask 42.2: Add collection endpoint [depends on 42.1]
+     RED:    Generate tests → src/api/__tests__/metrics.test.js
+     GREEN:  Implement code → src/api/metrics.js
+     COMMIT: "feat(metrics): add collection endpoint (task 42.2)"
+
+  3. Subtask 42.3: Add dashboard widget [depends on 42.2]
+     RED:    Generate tests → src/components/__tests__/MetricsWidget.test.jsx
+     GREEN:  Implement code → src/components/MetricsWidget.jsx
+     COMMIT: "feat(metrics): add dashboard widget (task 42.3)"
+
+Finalization:
+  → Run full test suite with coverage (threshold: 80%)
+  → Push branch to origin (will confirm)
+  → Create PR targeting main
+
+Estimated commits: 3
+Estimated duration: ~20-30 minutes (depends on implementation complexity)
+
+Run without --dry-run to execute.
+```
+
+## Success Criteria
+- Dry-run output is clear and matches expected workflow
+- Preflight detection works correctly on the project repo
+- Task loading integrates with existing TaskMaster state
+- No actual git operations or file modifications occur in dry-run mode
+
+## Out of Scope
+- Actual test generation
+- Actual code implementation

+- Test execution
+
+## Implementation Notes
+- Reuse existing `TaskService` from `packages/tm-core`
+- Use existing git utilities from `scripts/modules/utils/git-utils.js`
+- Load task/subtask data from `.taskmaster/tasks/tasks.json`
+- Detect test command via package.json → scripts.test field
+
+## Dependencies
+- Existing TaskMaster CLI structure

+- Git utilities
+
+## Estimated Effort
+2-3 days
+
+## Validation
+Test dry-run mode with:
+- Task with 1 subtask
+- Task with multiple subtasks
+- Task with dependencies between subtasks
+- Task without subtasks (should show warning)

+# Phase 1: Core Rails - State Machine & Orchestration
+
+## Objective
+Build the WorkflowOrchestrator as a state machine that guides AI sessions through TDD workflow, rather than directly executing code.
+
+## Architecture Overview
+
+### Execution Model
+The orchestrator acts as a **state manager and guide**, not a code executor:
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│                    Claude Code (MCP Client)                  │
+│  - Queries "what to do next"                                │
+│  - Executes work (writes tests, code, runs commands)        │
+│  - Reports completion                                        │
+└────────────────┬────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+                 │ MCP Protocol
+                 ▼
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│              WorkflowOrchestrator (tm-core)                  │
+│  - Maintains state machine (RED → GREEN → COMMIT)           │
+│  - Returns work units with context                          │
+│  - Validates preconditions                                  │
+│  - Records progress                                         │
+│  - Persists state for resumability                          │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+### Why This Approach?
+1. **Separation of Concerns**: State management separate from code execution
+2. **Leverage Existing Tools**: Uses Claude Code's capabilities instead of reimplementing
+3. **Human-in-the-Loop**: Easy to inspect state and intervene at any phase
+4. **Simpler Implementation**: Orchestrator is pure logic, no AI model integration needed
+5. **Flexible Executors**: Any tool (Claude Code, human, other AI) can execute work units
+
+## Core Components
+
+### 1. WorkflowOrchestrator Service
+**Location**: `packages/tm-core/src/services/workflow-orchestrator.service.ts`
+
+**Responsibilities**:
+- Track current phase (RED/GREEN/COMMIT) per subtask
+- Generate work units with context for each phase
+- Validate phase completion criteria
+- Advance state machine on successful completion
+- Handle errors and retry logic
+- Persist run state for resumability
+
+**API**:
+```typescript
+interface WorkflowOrchestrator {
+  // Start a new autopilot run
+  startRun(taskId: string, options?: RunOptions): Promise<RunContext>;
+
+  // Get next work unit to execute
+  getNextWorkUnit(runId: string): Promise<WorkUnit | null>;
+
+  // Report work unit completion
+  completeWorkUnit(
+    runId: string,
+    workUnitId: string,
+    result: WorkUnitResult
+  ): Promise<void>;
+
+  // Get current run state
+  getRunState(runId: string): Promise<RunState>;
+
+  // Pause/resume
+  pauseRun(runId: string): Promise<void>;
+  resumeRun(runId: string): Promise<void>;
+}
+
+interface WorkUnit {
+  id: string;                    // Unique work unit ID
+  phase: 'RED' | 'GREEN' | 'COMMIT';
+  subtaskId: string;             // e.g., "42.1"
+  action: string;                // Human-readable description
+  context: WorkUnitContext;      // All info needed to execute
+  preconditions: Precondition[]; // Checks before execution
+}
+
+interface WorkUnitContext {
+  taskId: string;
+  taskTitle: string;
+  subtaskTitle: string;
+  subtaskDescription: string;
+  dependencies: string[];        // Completed subtask IDs
+  testCommand: string;           // e.g., "npm test"
+
+  // Phase-specific context
+  redPhase?: {
+    testFile: string;            // Where to create test
+    testFramework: string;       // e.g., "vitest"
+    acceptanceCriteria: string[];
+  };
+
+  greenPhase?: {
+    testFile: string;            // Test to make pass
+    implementationHints: string[];
+    expectedFiles: string[];     // Files likely to modify
+  };
+
+  commitPhase?: {
+    commitMessage: string;       // Pre-generated message
+    filesToCommit: string[];     // Files modified in RED+GREEN
+  };
+}
+
+interface WorkUnitResult {
+  success: boolean;
+  phase: 'RED' | 'GREEN' | 'COMMIT';
+
+  // RED phase results
+  testsCreated?: string[];
+  testsFailed?: number;
+
+  // GREEN phase results
+  testsPassed?: number;
+  filesModified?: string[];
+  attempts?: number;
+
+  // COMMIT phase results
+  commitSha?: string;
+
+  // Common
+  error?: string;
+  logs?: string;
+}
+
+interface RunState {
+  runId: string;
+  taskId: string;
+  status: 'running' | 'paused' | 'completed' | 'failed';
+  currentPhase: 'RED' | 'GREEN' | 'COMMIT';
+  currentSubtask: string;
+  completedSubtasks: string[];
+  failedSubtasks: string[];
+  startTime: Date;
+  lastUpdateTime: Date;
+
+  // Resumability
+  checkpoint: {
+    subtaskId: string;
+    phase: 'RED' | 'GREEN' | 'COMMIT';
+    attemptNumber: number;
+  };
+}
+```
+
+### 2. State Machine Logic
+
+**Phase Transitions**:
+```
+START → RED(subtask 1) → GREEN(subtask 1) → COMMIT(subtask 1)
+                                               ↓
+                        RED(subtask 2) ← ─ ─ ─ ┘
+                             ↓
+                        GREEN(subtask 2)
+                             ↓
+                        COMMIT(subtask 2)
+                             ↓
+                           (repeat for remaining subtasks)
+                             ↓
+                        FINALIZE → END
+```
+
+**Phase Rules**:
+- **RED**: Can only transition to GREEN if tests created and failing
+- **GREEN**: Can only transition to COMMIT if tests passing (attempt < maxAttempts)
+- **COMMIT**: Can only transition to next RED if commit successful
+- **FINALIZE**: Can only start if all subtasks completed
+
+**Preconditions**:
+- RED: No uncommitted changes (or staged from previous GREEN that failed)
+- GREEN: RED phase complete, tests exist and are failing
+- COMMIT: GREEN phase complete, all tests passing, coverage meets threshold
+
+### 3. MCP Integration
+
+**New MCP Tools** (expose WorkflowOrchestrator via MCP):
+```typescript
+// Start an autopilot run
+mcp__task_master_ai__autopilot_start(taskId: string, dryRun?: boolean)
+
+// Get next work unit
+mcp__task_master_ai__autopilot_next_work_unit(runId: string)
+
+// Complete current work unit
+mcp__task_master_ai__autopilot_complete_work_unit(
+  runId: string,
+  workUnitId: string,
+  result: WorkUnitResult
+)
+
+// Get run state
+mcp__task_master_ai__autopilot_get_state(runId: string)
+
+// Pause/resume
+mcp__task_master_ai__autopilot_pause(runId: string)
+mcp__task_master_ai__autopilot_resume(runId: string)
+```
+
+### 4. Git/Test Adapters
+
+**GitAdapter** (`packages/tm-core/src/services/git-adapter.service.ts`):
+- Check working tree status
+- Validate branch state
+- Read git config (user, remote, default branch)
+- **Does NOT execute** git commands (that's executor's job)
+
+**TestAdapter** (`packages/tm-core/src/services/test-adapter.service.ts`):
+- Detect test framework from package.json
+- Parse test output (failures, passes, coverage)
+- Validate coverage thresholds
+- **Does NOT run** tests (that's executor's job)
+
+### 5. Run State Persistence
+
+**Storage Location**: `.taskmaster/reports/runs/<runId>/`
+
+**Files**:
+- `state.json` - Current run state (for resumability)
+- `log.jsonl` - Event stream (timestamped work unit completions)
+- `manifest.json` - Run metadata
+- `work-units.json` - All work units generated for this run
+
+**Example `state.json`**:
+```json
+{
+  "runId": "2025-01-15-142033",
+  "taskId": "42",
+  "status": "paused",
+  "currentPhase": "GREEN",
+  "currentSubtask": "42.2",
+  "completedSubtasks": ["42.1"],
+  "failedSubtasks": [],
+  "checkpoint": {
+    "subtaskId": "42.2",
+    "phase": "GREEN",
+    "attemptNumber": 2
+  },
+  "startTime": "2025-01-15T14:20:33Z",
+  "lastUpdateTime": "2025-01-15T14:35:12Z"
+}
+```
+
+## Implementation Plan
+
+### Step 1: WorkflowOrchestrator Skeleton

+- [ ] Generate GREEN phase work units (implementation hints)
+- [ ] Generate COMMIT phase work units (commit messages)
+
+### Step 3: Git/Test Adapters
+- [ ] Create GitAdapter for status checks only
+- [ ] Create TestAdapter for output parsing only
+- [ ] Add precondition validation using adapters

+
+### Step 4: MCP Integration
+- [ ] Add MCP tool definitions in `packages/mcp-server/src/tools/`
+- [ ] Wire up WorkflowOrchestrator to MCP tools
+- [ ] Test MCP tools via Claude Code
+- [ ] Document MCP workflow in CLAUDE.md
+
+### Step 5: CLI Integration
+- [ ] Update `autopilot.command.ts` to call WorkflowOrchestrator
+- [ ] Add `--interactive` mode that shows work units and waits for completion
+- [ ] Add `--resume` flag to continue paused runs
+- [ ] Test end-to-end flow
+
+### Step 6: Integration Testing
+- [ ] Create test task with 2-3 subtasks
+- [ ] Run autopilot start → get work unit → complete → repeat
+- [ ] Verify state persistence and resumability
+- [ ] Test failure scenarios (test failures, git issues)
+
+## Success Criteria
+- [ ] WorkflowOrchestrator can generate work units for all phases
+- [ ] MCP tools allow Claude Code to query and complete work units
+- [ ] State persists correctly between work unit completions
+- [ ] Run can be paused and resumed from checkpoint
+- [ ] Adapters validate preconditions without executing commands
+- [ ] End-to-end: Claude Code can complete a simple task via work units
+
+## Out of Scope (Phase 1)
+- Actual git operations (branch creation, commits) - executor handles this
+- Actual test execution - executor handles this
+- PR creation - deferred to Phase 2
+- TUI interface - deferred to Phase 3
+- Coverage enforcement - deferred to Phase 2
+
+## Example Usage Flow
+
+```bash
+# Terminal 1: Claude Code session
+$ claude
+
+# In Claude Code (via MCP):
+> Start autopilot for task 42
+[Calls mcp__task_master_ai__autopilot_start(42)]
+→ Run started: run-2025-01-15-142033
+
+> Get next work unit
+[Calls mcp__task_master_ai__autopilot_next_work_unit(run-2025-01-15-142033)]
+→ Work unit: RED phase for subtask 42.1
+→ Action: Generate failing tests for metrics schema
+→ Test file: src/__tests__/schema.test.js
+→ Framework: vitest
+
+> [Claude Code creates test file, runs tests]

+→ Work unit completed. State saved.
+
+> Get next work unit
+[Calls mcp__task_master_ai__autopilot_next_work_unit(run-2025-01-15-142033)]
+→ Work unit: GREEN phase for subtask 42.1
+→ Action: Implement code to pass failing tests
+→ Test file: src/__tests__/schema.test.js

+# Phase 2: PR + Resumability - Autonomous TDD Workflow
+
+## Objective
+Add PR creation with GitHub CLI integration, resumable checkpoints for interrupted runs, and enhanced guardrails with coverage enforcement.
+
+## Scope
+- GitHub PR creation via `gh` CLI
+- Well-formed PR body using run report
+- Resumable checkpoints and `--resume` flag
+- Coverage enforcement before finalization
+- Optional lint/format step
+- Enhanced error recovery
+
+## Deliverables
+
+### 1. PR Creation Integration
+
+**PRAdapter** (`packages/tm-core/src/services/pr-adapter.ts`):
+```typescript
+class PRAdapter {
+  async isGHAvailable(): Promise<boolean>
+  async createPR(options: PROptions): Promise<PRResult>
+  async getPRTemplate(runReport: RunReport): Promise<string>
+
+  // Fallback for missing gh CLI
+  async getManualPRInstructions(options: PROptions): Promise<string>
+}
+
+interface PROptions {
+  branch: string
+  base: string
+  title: string
+  body: string
+  draft?: boolean
+}
+
+interface PRResult {
+  url: string
+  number: number
+}
+```
+
+**PR Title Format:**
+```
+Task #<id> [<tag>]: <title>
+```
+
+Example: `Task #42 [analytics]: User metrics tracking`
+
+**PR Body Template:**
+
+Located at `.taskmaster/templates/pr-body.md`:
+
+```markdown
+## Summary
+
+Implements Task #42 from TaskMaster autonomous workflow.
+
+**Branch:** {branch}
+**Tag:** {tag}
+**Subtasks completed:** {subtaskCount}
+
+{taskDescription}
+
+## Subtasks
+
+{subtasksList}
+
+## Test Coverage
+
+| Metric | Coverage |
+|--------|----------|
+| Lines | {lines}% |
+| Branches | {branches}% |
+| Functions | {functions}% |
+| Statements | {statements}% |
+
+**All subtasks passed with {totalTests} tests.**
+
+## Commits
+
+{commitsList}
+
+## Run Report
+
+Full execution report: `.taskmaster/reports/runs/{runId}/`
+
+---
+
+🤖 Generated with [Task Master](https://github.com/cline/task-master) autonomous TDD workflow
+```
+
+**Token replacement:**
+- `{branch}` → branch name
+- `{tag}` → active tag
+- `{subtaskCount}` → number of completed subtasks
+- `{taskDescription}` → task description from TaskMaster
+- `{subtasksList}` → markdown list of subtask titles
+- `{lines}`, `{branches}`, `{functions}`, `{statements}` → coverage percentages
+- `{totalTests}` → total test count
+- `{commitsList}` → markdown list of commit SHAs and messages
+- `{runId}` → run ID timestamp
+
+### 2. GitHub CLI Integration
+
+**Detection:**
+```bash
+which gh
+```
+
+If not found, show fallback instructions:
+```bash
+✓ Branch pushed: analytics/task-42-user-metrics
+✗ gh CLI not found - cannot create PR automatically
+
+To create PR manually:
+  gh pr create \
+    --base main \
+    --head analytics/task-42-user-metrics \
+    --title "Task #42 [analytics]: User metrics tracking" \
+    --body-file .taskmaster/reports/runs/2025-01-15-142033/pr.md
+
+Or visit:
+  https://github.com/org/repo/compare/main...analytics/task-42-user-metrics
+```
+
+**Confirmation gate:**
+```bash
+Ready to create PR:
+  Title: Task #42 [analytics]: User metrics tracking
+  Base: main
+  Head: analytics/task-42-user-metrics
+
+Create PR? [Y/n]
+```
+
+Unless `--no-confirm` flag is set.
+
+### 3. Resumable Workflow
+
+**State Checkpoint** (`state.json`):
+```json
+{
+  "runId": "2025-01-15-142033",
+  "taskId": "42",
+  "phase": "subtask-loop",
+  "currentSubtask": "42.2",
+  "currentPhase": "green",
+  "attempts": 2,
+  "completedSubtasks": ["42.1"],
+  "commits": ["a1b2c3d"],
+  "branch": "analytics/task-42-user-metrics",
+  "tag": "analytics",
+  "canResume": true,
+  "pausedAt": "2025-01-15T14:25:35Z",
+  "pausedReason": "max_attempts_reached",
+  "nextAction": "manual_review_required"
+}
+```
+
+**Resume Command:**
+```bash
+$ tm autopilot --resume
+
+Resuming run: 2025-01-15-142033
+  Task: #42 [analytics] User metrics tracking
+  Branch: analytics/task-42-user-metrics
+  Last subtask: 42.2 (GREEN phase, attempt 2/3 failed)
+  Paused: 5 minutes ago
+
+Reason: Could not achieve green state after 3 attempts
+Last error: POST /api/metrics returns 500 instead of 201
+
+Resume from subtask 42.2 GREEN phase? [Y/n]
+```
+
+**Resume logic:**
+1. Load state from `.taskmaster/reports/runs/<runId>/state.json`
+2. Verify branch still exists and is checked out
+3. Verify no uncommitted changes (unless `--force`)
+4. Continue from last checkpoint phase
+5. Update state file as execution progresses
+
+**Multiple interrupted runs:**
+```bash
+$ tm autopilot --resume
+
+Found 2 resumable runs:
+  1. 2025-01-15-142033 - Task #42 (paused 5 min ago at subtask 42.2 GREEN)
+  2. 2025-01-14-103022 - Task #38 (paused 2 hours ago at subtask 38.3 RED)
+
+Select run to resume [1-2]:
+```
+
+### 4. Coverage Enforcement
+
+**Coverage Check Phase** (before finalization):
+```typescript
+async function enforceCoverage(runId: string): Promise<void> {
+  const testResults = await testRunner.runAll()
+  const coverage = await testRunner.getCoverage()
+
+  const thresholds = config.test.coverageThresholds
+  const failures = []
+
+  if (coverage.lines < thresholds.lines) {
+    failures.push(`Lines: ${coverage.lines}% < ${thresholds.lines}%`)
+  }
+  // ... check branches, functions, statements
+
+  if (failures.length > 0) {
+    throw new CoverageError(
+      `Coverage thresholds not met:\n${failures.join('\n')}`
+    )
+  }
+
+  // Store coverage in run report
+  await storeRunArtifact(runId, 'coverage.json', coverage)
+}
+```
+
+**Handling coverage failures:**
+```bash
+⚠️  Coverage check failed:
+  Lines: 78.5% < 80%
+  Branches: 75.0% < 80%
+
+Options:
+  1. Add more tests and resume
+  2. Lower thresholds in .taskmaster/config.json
+  3. Skip coverage check: tm autopilot --resume --skip-coverage
+
+Run paused. Fix coverage and resume with:
+  tm autopilot --resume
+```
+
+### 5. Optional Lint/Format Step
+
+**Configuration:**
+```json
+{
+  "autopilot": {
+    "finalization": {
+      "lint": {
+        "enabled": true,
+        "command": "npm run lint",
+        "fix": true,
+        "failOnError": false
+      },
+      "format": {
+        "enabled": true,
+        "command": "npm run format",
+        "commitChanges": true
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Execution:**
+```bash
+Finalization Steps:
+
+  ✓ All tests passing (12 tests, 0 failures)
+  ✓ Coverage thresholds met (85% lines, 82% branches)
+
+  LINT Running linter... ⏳
+  LINT ✓ No lint errors
+
+  FORMAT Running formatter... ⏳
+  FORMAT ✓ Formatted 3 files
+  FORMAT ✓ Committed formatting changes: "chore: auto-format code"
+
+  PUSH Pushing to origin... ⏳
+  PUSH ✓ Pushed analytics/task-42-user-metrics
+
+  PR Creating pull request... ⏳
+  PR ✓ Created PR #123
+      https://github.com/org/repo/pull/123
+```
+
+### 6. Enhanced Error Recovery
+
+**Pause Points:**
+- Max GREEN attempts reached (current)
+- Coverage check failed (new)
+- Lint errors (if `failOnError: true`)
+- Git push failed (new)
+- PR creation failed (new)
+
+**Each pause saves:**
+- Full state checkpoint
+- Last command output
+- Suggested next actions
+- Resume instructions
+
+**Automatic recovery attempts:**
+- Git push: retry up to 3 times with backoff
+- PR creation: fall back to manual instructions
+- Lint: auto-fix if enabled, otherwise pause
+
+### 7. Finalization Phase Enhancement
+
+**Updated workflow:**
+1. Run full test suite
+2. Check coverage thresholds → pause if failed
+3. Run lint (if enabled) → pause if failed and `failOnError: true`
+4. Run format (if enabled) → auto-commit changes
+5. Confirm push (unless `--no-confirm`)
+6. Push branch → retry on failure
+7. Generate PR body from template
+8. Create PR via gh → fall back to manual instructions
+9. Update task status to 'review' (configurable)
+10. Save final run report
+
+**Final output:**
+```bash
+━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
+
+✅ Task #42 [analytics]: User metrics tracking - COMPLETE
+
+  Branch: analytics/task-42-user-metrics
+  Subtasks completed: 3/3
+  Commits: 3
+  Total tests: 12 (12 passed, 0 failed)
+  Coverage: 85% lines, 82% branches, 88% functions, 85% statements
+
+  PR #123: https://github.com/org/repo/pull/123
+
+  Run report: .taskmaster/reports/runs/2025-01-15-142033/
+
+Next steps:
+  - Review PR and request changes if needed
+  - Merge when ready
+  - Task status updated to 'review'
+
+Completed in 24 minutes
+```
+
+## CLI Updates
+
+**New flags:**
+- `--resume` → Resume from last checkpoint
+- `--skip-coverage` → Skip coverage checks
+- `--skip-lint` → Skip lint step
+- `--skip-format` → Skip format step
+- `--skip-pr` → Push branch but don't create PR
+- `--draft-pr` → Create draft PR instead of ready-for-review
+
+## Configuration Updates
+
+**Add to `.taskmaster/config.json`:**
+```json
+{
+  "autopilot": {
+    "finalization": {
+      "lint": {
+        "enabled": false,
+        "command": "npm run lint",
+        "fix": true,
+        "failOnError": false
+      },
+      "format": {
+        "enabled": false,
+        "command": "npm run format",
+        "commitChanges": true
+      },
+      "updateTaskStatus": "review"
+    }
+  },
+  "git": {
+    "pr": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "base": "default",
+      "bodyTemplate": ".taskmaster/templates/pr-body.md",
+      "draft": false
+    },
+    "pushRetries": 3,
+    "pushRetryDelay": 5000
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Success Criteria
+- Can create PR automatically with well-formed body
+- Can resume interrupted runs from any checkpoint
+- Coverage checks prevent low-quality code from being merged
+- Clear error messages and recovery paths for all failure modes
+- Run reports include full PR context for review
+
+## Out of Scope (defer to Phase 3)
+- Multiple test framework support (pytest, go test)
+- Diff preview before commits
+- TUI panel implementation
+- Extension/IDE integration
+
+## Testing Strategy
+- Mock `gh` CLI for PR creation tests
+- Test resume from each possible pause point
+- Test coverage failure scenarios
+- Test lint/format integration with mock commands
+- End-to-end test with PR creation on test repo
+
+## Dependencies
+- Phase 1 completed (core workflow)
+- GitHub CLI (`gh`) installed (optional, fallback provided)
+- Test framework supports coverage output
+
+## Estimated Effort
+1-2 weeks
+
+## Risks & Mitigations
+- **Risk:** GitHub CLI auth issues
+  - **Mitigation:** Clear auth setup docs, fallback to manual instructions
+
+- **Risk:** PR body template doesn't match all project needs
+  - **Mitigation:** Make template customizable via config path
+
+- **Risk:** Resume state gets corrupted
+  - **Mitigation:** Validate state on load, provide --force-reset option
+
+- **Risk:** Coverage calculation differs between runs
+  - **Mitigation:** Store coverage with each test run for comparison
+
+## Validation
+Test with:
+- Successful PR creation end-to-end
+- Resume from GREEN attempt failure
+- Resume from coverage failure
+- Resume from lint failure
+- Missing `gh` CLI (fallback to manual)
+- Lint/format integration enabled
+- Multiple interrupted runs (selection UI)

+# Phase 3: Extensibility + Guardrails - Autonomous TDD Workflow
+
+## Objective
+Add multi-language/framework support, enhanced safety guardrails, TUI interface, and extensibility for IDE/editor integration.
+
+## Scope
+- Multi-language test runner support (pytest, go test, etc.)
+- Enhanced safety: diff preview, confirmation gates, minimal-change prompts
+- Optional TUI panel with tmux integration
+- State-based extension API for IDE integration
+- Parallel subtask execution (experimental)
+
+## Deliverables
+
+### 1. Multi-Language Test Runner Support
+
+**Extend TestRunnerAdapter:**
+```typescript
+class TestRunnerAdapter {
+  // Existing methods...
+
+  async detectLanguage(): Promise<Language>
+  async detectFramework(language: Language): Promise<Framework>
+  async getFrameworkAdapter(framework: Framework): Promise<FrameworkAdapter>
+}
+
+enum Language {
+  JavaScript = 'javascript',
+  TypeScript = 'typescript',
+  Python = 'python',
+  Go = 'go',
+  Rust = 'rust'
+}
+
+enum Framework {
+  Vitest = 'vitest',
+  Jest = 'jest',
+  Pytest = 'pytest',
+  GoTest = 'gotest',
+  CargoTest = 'cargotest'
+}
+
+interface FrameworkAdapter {
+  runTargeted(pattern: string): Promise<TestResults>
+  runAll(): Promise<TestResults>
+  parseCoverage(output: string): Promise<CoverageReport>
+  getTestFilePattern(): string
+  getTestFileExtension(): string
+}
+```
+
+**Framework-specific adapters:**
+
+**PytestAdapter** (`packages/tm-core/src/services/test-adapters/pytest-adapter.ts`):
+```typescript
+class PytestAdapter implements FrameworkAdapter {
+  async runTargeted(pattern: string): Promise<TestResults> {
+    const output = await exec(`pytest ${pattern} --json-report`)
+    return this.parseResults(output)
+  }
+
+  async runAll(): Promise<TestResults> {
+    const output = await exec('pytest --cov --json-report')
+    return this.parseResults(output)
+  }
+
+  parseCoverage(output: string): Promise<CoverageReport> {
+    // Parse pytest-cov XML output
+  }
+
+  getTestFilePattern(): string {
+    return '**/test_*.py'
+  }
+
+  getTestFileExtension(): string {
+    return '.py'
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**GoTestAdapter** (`packages/tm-core/src/services/test-adapters/gotest-adapter.ts`):
+```typescript
+class GoTestAdapter implements FrameworkAdapter {
+  async runTargeted(pattern: string): Promise<TestResults> {
+    const output = await exec(`go test ${pattern} -json`)
+    return this.parseResults(output)
+  }
+
+  async runAll(): Promise<TestResults> {
+    const output = await exec('go test ./... -coverprofile=coverage.out -json')
+    return this.parseResults(output)
+  }
+
+  parseCoverage(output: string): Promise<CoverageReport> {
+    // Parse go test coverage output
+  }
+
+  getTestFilePattern(): string {
+    return '**/*_test.go'
+  }
+
+  getTestFileExtension(): string {
+    return '_test.go'
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Detection Logic:**
+```typescript
+async function detectFramework(): Promise<Framework> {
+  // Check for package.json
+  if (await exists('package.json')) {
+    const pkg = await readJSON('package.json')
+    if (pkg.devDependencies?.vitest) return Framework.Vitest
+    if (pkg.devDependencies?.jest) return Framework.Jest
+  }
+
+  // Check for Python files
+  if (await exists('pytest.ini') || await exists('setup.py')) {
+    return Framework.Pytest
+  }
+
+  // Check for Go files
+  if (await exists('go.mod')) {
+    return Framework.GoTest
+  }
+
+  // Check for Rust files
+  if (await exists('Cargo.toml')) {
+    return Framework.CargoTest
+  }
+
+  throw new Error('Could not detect test framework')
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Enhanced Safety Guardrails
+
+**Diff Preview Mode:**
+```bash
+$ tm autopilot 42 --preview-diffs
+
+[2/3] Subtask 42.2: Add collection endpoint
+
+  RED   ✓ Tests created: src/api/__tests__/metrics.test.js
+
+  GREEN Implementing code...
+
+━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
+Proposed changes (src/api/metrics.js):
+
+  + import { MetricsSchema } from '../models/schema.js'
+  +
+  + export async function createMetric(data) {
+  +   const validated = MetricsSchema.parse(data)
+  +   const result = await db.metrics.create(validated)
+  +   return result
+  + }
+
+━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
+
+Apply these changes? [Y/n/e(dit)/s(kip)]
+  Y - Apply and continue
+  n - Reject and retry GREEN phase
+  e - Open in editor for manual changes
+  s - Skip this subtask
+```
+
+**Minimal Change Enforcement:**
+
+Add to system prompt:
+```markdown
+CRITICAL: Make MINIMAL changes to pass the failing tests.
+- Only modify files directly related to the subtask
+- Do not refactor existing code unless absolutely necessary
+- Do not add features beyond the acceptance criteria
+- Keep changes under 50 lines per file when possible
+- Prefer composition over modification
+```
+
+**Change Size Warnings:**
+```bash
+⚠️  Large change detected:
+  Files modified: 5
+  Lines changed: +234, -12
+
+This subtask was expected to be small (~50 lines).
+Consider:
+  - Breaking into smaller subtasks
+  - Reviewing acceptance criteria
+  - Checking for unintended changes
+
+Continue anyway? [y/N]
+```
+
+### 3. TUI Interface with tmux

+  private setupKeybindings() {
+    this.screen.key(['s'], () => this.startTask())
+    this.screen.key(['p'], () => this.pauseTask())
+    this.screen.key(['q'], () => this.quit())
+    this.screen.key(['up', 'down'], () => this.navigateTasks())
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Executor Mode:**
+```bash
+$ tm autopilot 42 --executor-mode
+
+# Runs in executor pane, writes state to shared file
+# Left pane reads state file and updates display
+```
+
+**State File** (`.taskmaster/state/current-run.json`):
+```json
+{
+  "runId": "2025-01-15-142033",
+  "taskId": "42",
+  "status": "running",
+  "currentPhase": "green",
+  "currentSubtask": "42.2",
+  "lastOutput": "Implementing endpoint...",
+  "testsStatus": {
+    "passed": 3,
+    "failed": 0
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 4. Extension API for IDE Integration
+
+**State-based API:**
+
+Expose run state via JSON files that IDEs can read:
+- `.taskmaster/state/current-run.json` - live run state
+- `.taskmaster/reports/runs/<runId>/manifest.json` - run metadata
+- `.taskmaster/reports/runs/<runId>/log.jsonl` - event stream
+
+**WebSocket API (optional):**
+```typescript
+// packages/tm-core/src/services/autopilot-server.ts
+class AutopilotServer {
+  private wss: WebSocketServer
+
+  start(port: number = 7890) {
+    this.wss = new WebSocketServer({ port })
+
+    this.wss.on('connection', (ws) => {
+      // Send current state
+      ws.send(JSON.stringify(this.getCurrentState()))
+
+      // Stream events
+      this.orchestrator.on('*', (event) => {
+        ws.send(JSON.stringify(event))
+      })
+    })
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Usage from IDE extension:**
+```typescript
+// VS Code extension example
+const ws = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:7890')
+
+ws.on('message', (data) => {
+  const event = JSON.parse(data)
+
+  if (event.type === 'subtask:complete') {
+    vscode.window.showInformationMessage(
+      `Subtask ${event.subtaskId} completed`
+    )
+  }
+})
+```
+
+### 5. Parallel Subtask Execution (Experimental)
+
+**Dependency Analysis:**
+```typescript
+class SubtaskScheduler {
+  async buildDependencyGraph(subtasks: Subtask[]): Promise<DAG> {
+    const graph = new DAG()
+
+    for (const subtask of subtasks) {
+      graph.addNode(subtask.id)
+
+      for (const depId of subtask.dependencies) {
+        graph.addEdge(depId, subtask.id)
+      }
+    }
+
+    return graph
+  }
+
+  async getParallelBatches(graph: DAG): Promise<Subtask[][]> {
+    const batches: Subtask[][] = []
+    const completed = new Set<string>()
+
+    while (completed.size < graph.size()) {
+      const ready = graph.nodes.filter(node =>
+        !completed.has(node.id) &&
+        node.dependencies.every(dep => completed.has(dep))
+      )
+
+      batches.push(ready)
+      ready.forEach(node => completed.add(node.id))
+    }
+
+    return batches
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Parallel Execution:**
+```bash
+$ tm autopilot 42 --parallel
+
+[Batch 1] Running 2 subtasks in parallel:
+  → 42.1: Add metrics schema
+  → 42.4: Add API documentation
+
+  42.1 RED   ✓ Tests created
+  42.4 RED   ✓ Tests created
+
+  42.1 GREEN ✓ Implementation complete
+  42.4 GREEN ✓ Implementation complete
+
+  42.1 COMMIT ✓ Committed: a1b2c3d
+  42.4 COMMIT ✓ Committed: e5f6g7h
+
+[Batch 2] Running 2 subtasks in parallel (depend on 42.1):
+  → 42.2: Add collection endpoint
+  → 42.3: Add dashboard widget
+  ...
+```
+
+**Conflict Detection:**
+```typescript
+async function detectConflicts(subtasks: Subtask[]): Promise<Conflict[]> {
+  const conflicts: Conflict[] = []
+
+  for (let i = 0; i < subtasks.length; i++) {
+    for (let j = i + 1; j < subtasks.length; j++) {
+      const filesA = await predictAffectedFiles(subtasks[i])
+      const filesB = await predictAffectedFiles(subtasks[j])
+
+      const overlap = filesA.filter(f => filesB.includes(f))
+
+      if (overlap.length > 0) {
+        conflicts.push({
+          subtasks: [subtasks[i].id, subtasks[j].id],
+          files: overlap
+        })
+      }
+    }
+  }
+
+  return conflicts
+}
+```
+
+### 6. Advanced Configuration
+
+**Add to `.taskmaster/config.json`:**
+```json
+{
+  "autopilot": {
+    "safety": {
+      "previewDiffs": false,
+      "maxChangeLinesPerFile": 100,
+      "warnOnLargeChanges": true,
+      "requireConfirmOnLargeChanges": true
+    },
+    "parallel": {
+      "enabled": false,
+      "maxConcurrent": 3,
+      "detectConflicts": true
+    },
+    "tui": {
+      "enabled": false,
+      "tmuxSession": "taskmaster-autopilot"
+    },
+    "api": {
+      "enabled": false,
+      "port": 7890,
+      "allowRemote": false
+    }
+  },
+  "test": {
+    "frameworks": {
+      "python": {
+        "runner": "pytest",
+        "coverageCommand": "pytest --cov",
+        "testPattern": "**/test_*.py"
+      },
+      "go": {
+        "runner": "go test",
+        "coverageCommand": "go test ./... -coverprofile=coverage.out",
+        "testPattern": "**/*_test.go"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## CLI Updates
+
+**New commands:**
+```bash
+tm autopilot <taskId> --tui              # Launch TUI interface
+tm autopilot <taskId> --parallel         # Enable parallel execution
+tm autopilot <taskId> --preview-diffs    # Show diffs before applying
+tm autopilot <taskId> --executor-mode    # Run as executor pane
+tm autopilot-server start                # Start WebSocket API
+```
+
+## Success Criteria
+- Supports Python projects with pytest
+- Supports Go projects with go test
+- Diff preview prevents unwanted changes
+- TUI provides better visibility for long-running tasks
+- IDE extensions can integrate via state files or WebSocket
+- Parallel execution reduces total time for independent subtasks
+
+## Out of Scope
+- Full Electron/web GUI
+- AI executor selection UI (defer to Phase 4)
+- Multi-repository support
+- Remote execution on cloud runners
+
+## Testing Strategy
+- Test with Python project (pytest)
+- Test with Go project (go test)
+- Test diff preview UI with mock changes
+- Test parallel execution with independent subtasks
+- Test conflict detection with overlapping file changes
+- Test TUI with mock tmux environment
+
+## Dependencies
+- Phase 2 completed (PR + resumability)
+- tmux installed (for TUI)
+- blessed or ink library (for TUI rendering)
+
+## Estimated Effort
+3-4 weeks
+
+## Risks & Mitigations
+- **Risk:** Parallel execution causes git conflicts
+  - **Mitigation:** Conservative conflict detection, sequential fallback
+
+- **Risk:** TUI adds complexity and maintenance burden
+  - **Mitigation:** Keep TUI optional, state-based design allows alternatives
+
+- **Risk:** Framework adapters hard to maintain across versions
+  - **Mitigation:** Abstract common parsing logic, document adapter interface
+
+- **Risk:** Diff preview slows down workflow
+  - **Mitigation:** Make optional, use --preview-diffs flag only when needed
+
+## Validation
+Test with:
+- Python project with pytest and pytest-cov
+- Go project with go test
+- Large changes requiring confirmation
+- Parallel execution with 3+ independent subtasks
+- TUI with task selection and live status updates
+- VS Code extension reading state files

+# Product Requirements Document: tm-core Package - Parse PRD Feature
+
+## Project Overview
+Create a TypeScript package named `tm-core` at `packages/tm-core` that implements parse-prd functionality using class-based architecture similar to the existing AI providers pattern.
+
+## Design Patterns & Architecture
+
+### Patterns to Apply
+1. **Factory Pattern**: Use for `ProviderFactory` to create AI provider instances
+2. **Strategy Pattern**: Use for `IAIProvider` implementations and `IStorage` implementations
+3. **Facade Pattern**: Use for `TaskMasterCore` as the main API entry point
+4. **Template Method Pattern**: Use for `BaseProvider` abstract class
+5. **Dependency Injection**: Use throughout for testability (pass dependencies via constructor)
+6. **Repository Pattern**: Use for `FileStorage` to abstract data persistence
+
+### Naming Conventions
+- **Files**: kebab-case (e.g., `task-parser.ts`, `file-storage.ts`)
+- **Classes**: PascalCase (e.g., `TaskParser`, `FileStorage`)
+- **Interfaces**: PascalCase with 'I' prefix (e.g., `IStorage`, `IAIProvider`)
+- **Methods**: camelCase (e.g., `parsePRD`, `loadTasks`)
+- **Constants**: UPPER_SNAKE_CASE (e.g., `DEFAULT_MODEL`)
+- **Type aliases**: PascalCase (e.g., `TaskStatus`, `ParseOptions`)
+

+
+### 6. Create ai/base-provider.ts
+Copy existing base-provider.js and convert to TypeScript abstract class:

+- Protected properties: `apiKey: string`, `model: string`
+- Constructor accepting `apiKey: string` and `options: { model?: string }`
+- Abstract methods matching IAIProvider interface
+- Abstract method `getDefaultModel(): string`

+  case 'anthropic':
+    const { AnthropicProvider } = await import('./providers/anthropic-provider.js');
+    return new AnthropicProvider(apiKey, { model });
+}
+```
+
+### 8. Create ai/providers/anthropic-provider.ts
+Create class `AnthropicProvider` extending `BaseProvider`:

+- Apply **Repository** pattern for data access abstraction
+
+### 10. Create config/config-manager.ts

+
+### 11. Create utils/id-generator.ts
+Export functions:
+- `generateTaskId(index: number = 0): string` returning format `task_{timestamp}_{index}_{random}`
+- `generateSubtaskId(parentId: string, index: number = 0): string` returning format `{parentId}_sub_{index}_{random}`
+
+### 16. Create src/index.ts

+
+Export:
+- Class `TaskMasterCore`
+- Function `createTaskMaster(options: Partial<IConfiguration>): TaskMasterCore`
+- All types from './types'

+import { FileStorage } from './storage/file-storage';
+import { ConfigManager } from './config/config-manager';
+import { ProviderFactory } from './ai/provider-factory';
+```
+
+### 17. Configure package.json
+Create package.json with:
+- name: "@task-master/core"
+- version: "0.1.0"
+- type: "module"
+- main: "./dist/index.js"
+- module: "./dist/index.mjs"
+- types: "./dist/index.d.ts"
+- exports map for proper ESM/CJS support
+- scripts: build (tsup), dev (tsup --watch), test (jest), typecheck (tsc --noEmit)
+- dependencies: zod@^3.23.8
+- peerDependencies: @anthropic-ai/sdk, openai, @google/generative-ai
+- devDependencies: typescript, tsup, jest, ts-jest, @types/node, @types/jest
+
+### 18. Configure TypeScript
+Create tsconfig.json with:
+- target: "ES2022"
+- module: "ESNext"
+- strict: true (with all strict flags enabled)
+- declaration: true
+- outDir: "./dist"
+- rootDir: "./src"
+
+### 19. Configure tsup
+Create tsup.config.js with:
+- entry: ['src/index.ts']
+- format: ['cjs', 'esm']
+- dts: true
+- sourcemap: true
+- clean: true
+- external: AI provider SDKs
+
+### 20. Configure Jest
+Create jest.config.js with:
+- preset: 'ts-jest'
+- testEnvironment: 'node'
+- Coverage threshold: 80% for all metrics
+
+## Build Process
+1. Use tsup to compile TypeScript to both CommonJS and ESM
+2. Generate .d.ts files for TypeScript consumers
+3. Output to dist/ directory
+4. Ensure tree-shaking works properly
+
+## Testing Requirements
+- Create unit tests for TaskParser in tests/task-parser.test.ts
+- Create MockProvider class in tests/mocks/mock-provider.ts for testing without API calls
+- Test error scenarios (file not found, invalid JSON, etc.)
+- Create integration test in tests/integration/parse-prd.test.ts
+- Follow kebab-case naming for all test files
+
+## Success Criteria
+- TypeScript compilation with zero errors
+- No use of 'any' type
+- All interfaces properly exported
+- Compatible with existing tasks.json format
+- Feature flag support via USE_TM_CORE environment variable
+
+## Import/Export Conventions
+- Use named exports for all classes and interfaces
+- Use barrel exports (index.ts) in each directory
+- Import types/interfaces with type-only imports: `import type { Task } from '../types'`
+- Group imports in order: Node built-ins, external packages, internal packages, relative imports
+- Use .js extension in import paths for ESM compatibility
+
+## Error Handling Patterns
+- Create custom error classes in `src/errors/` directory
+- All public methods should catch and wrap errors with context
+- Use error codes for different error types (e.g., 'FILE_NOT_FOUND', 'PARSE_ERROR')
+- Never expose internal implementation details in error messages
+- Log errors to console.error only in development mode
