-feat(expand): Enhance `expand` and `expand-all` commands
-
-- Integrate `task-complexity-report.json` to automatically determine the number of subtasks and use tailored prompts for expansion based on prior analysis. You no longer need to try copy-pasting the recommended prompt. If it exists, it will use it for you. You can just run `task-master update --id=[id of task] --research` and it will use that prompt automatically. No extra prompt needed. 
-- Change default behavior to *append* new subtasks to existing ones. Use the `--force` flag to clear existing subtasks before expanding. This is helpful if you need to add more subtasks to a task but you want to do it by the batch from a given prompt. Use force if you want to start fresh with a task's subtasks.

-Adds support for the OpenRouter AI provider. Users can now configure models available through OpenRouter (requiring an `OPENROUTER_API_KEY`) via the `task-master models` command, granting access to a wide range of additional LLMs.
-    - IMPORTANT FYI ABOUT OPENROUTER: Taskmaster relies on AI SDK, which itself relies on tool use. It looks like **free** models sometimes do not include tool use. For example, Gemini 2.5 pro (free) failed via OpenRouter (no tool use) but worked fine on the paid version of the model. Custom model support for Open Router is considered experimental and likely will not be further improved for some time.

-Improve and adjust `init` command for robustness and updated dependencies.

-- **Update Initialization Dependencies:** Ensure newly initialized projects (`task-master init`) include all required AI SDK dependencies (`@ai-sdk/*`, `ai`, provider wrappers) in their `package.json` for out-of-the-box AI feature compatibility. Remove unnecessary dependencies (e.g., `uuid`) from the init template.
-- **Silence `npm install` during `init`:** Prevent `npm install` output from interfering with non-interactive/MCP initialization by suppressing its stdio in silent mode.
-- **Improve Conditional Model Setup:** Reliably skip interactive `models --setup` during non-interactive `init` runs (e.g., `init -y` or MCP) by checking `isSilentMode()` instead of passing flags.
-- **Refactor `init.js`:** Remove internal `isInteractive` flag logic.
-- **Update `init` Instructions:** Tweak the "Getting Started" text displayed after `init`.
-- **Fix MCP Server Launch:** Update `.cursor/mcp.json` template to use `node ./mcp-server/server.js` instead of `npx task-master-mcp`.
-- **Update Default Model:** Change the default main model in the `.taskmasterconfig` template.

-Improves next command to be subtask-aware
-    - The logic for determining the "next task" (findNextTask function, used by task-master next and the next_task MCP tool) has been significantly improved. Previously, it only considered top-level tasks, making its recommendation less useful when a parent task containing subtasks was already marked 'in-progress'.
-    - The updated logic now prioritizes finding the next available subtask within any 'in-progress' parent task, considering subtask dependencies and priority. 
-    - If no suitable subtask is found within active parent tasks, it falls back to recommending the next eligible top-level task based on the original criteria (status, dependencies, priority). 
-    
-This change makes the next command much more relevant and helpful during the implementation phase of complex tasks.

-Adds custom model ID support for Ollama and OpenRouter providers.

-  - Updated `task-master models --setup` interactive mode with options to explicitly enter custom Ollama or OpenRouter model IDs.
-  - Implemented live validation against OpenRouter API (`/api/v1/models`) when setting a custom OpenRouter model ID (via flag or setup).
-  - Refined logic to prioritize explicit provider flags/choices over internal model list lookups in case of ID conflicts.
-  - Added warnings when setting custom/unvalidated models.
-  - We obviously don't recommend going with a custom, unproven model. If you do and find performance is good, please let us know so we can add it to the list of supported models.

-Adds a 'models' CLI and MCP command to get the current model configuration, available models, and gives the ability to set main/research/fallback models." 
-    - In the CLI, `task-master models` shows the current models config. Using the `--setup` flag launches an interactive set up that allows you to easily select the models you want to use for each of the three roles. Use `q` during the interactive setup to cancel the setup.
-    - In the MCP, responses are simplified in RESTful format (instead of the full CLI output). The agent can use the `models` tool with different arguments, including `listAvailableModels` to get available models. Run without arguments, it will return the current configuration. Arguments are available to set the model for each of the three roles. This allows you to manage Taskmaster AI providers and models directly from either the CLI or MCP or both.
-    - Updated the CLI help menu when you run `task-master` to include missing commands and .taskmasterconfig information.
-    - Adds `--research` flag to `add-task` so you can hit up Perplexity right from the add-task flow, rather than having to add a task and then update it.

Use a code editor or IDE with search functionality to locate all instances of console.log().\n3. Review each console log statement to determine if it is necessary for debugging or logging purposes.\n4. For each unnecessary console log, remove the statement from the code.\n5. Ensure that the removal of console logs does not affect the functionality of the application.\n6. Test the application thoroughly to confirm that no errors are introduced by the removal of these logs.\n7. Commit the changes to the version control system with a message indicating the cleanup of console logs.\n</info added on 2025-05-02T20:47:07.566Z>\n<info added on 2025-05-02T20:47:56.080Z>\nHere are more detailed steps for removing unnecessary console logs:\n\n1. Identify all files within the project directory that contain console log statements:\n   - Use grep or similar tools: `grep -r \"console.log\" --include=\"*.js\" --include=\"*.jsx\" --include=\"*.ts\" --include=\"*.tsx\" ./src`\n   - Alternatively, use your IDE's project-wide search functionality with regex pattern `console\\.(log|debug|info|warn|error)`\n\n2. Categorize console logs:\n   - Essential logs: Error reporting, critical application state changes\n   - Debugging logs: Temporary logs used during development\n   - Informational logs: Non-critical information that might be useful\n   - Redundant logs: Duplicated information or trivial data\n\n3. Create a spreadsheet or document to track:\n   - File path\n   - Line number\n   - Console log content\n   - Category (essential/debugging/informational/redundant)\n   - Decision (keep/remove)\n\n4. Apply these specific removal criteria:\n   - Remove all logs with comments like \"TODO\", \"TEMP\", \"DEBUG\"\n   - Remove logs that only show function entry/exit without meaningful data\n   - Remove logs that duplicate information already available in the UI\n   - Keep logs related to error handling or critical user actions\n   - Consider replacing some logs with proper error handling\n\n5. For logs you decide to keep:\n   - Add clear comments explaining why they're necessary\n   - Consider moving them to a centralized logging service\n   - Implement log levels (debug, info, warn, error) if not already present\n\n6. Use search and replace with regex to batch remove similar patterns:\n   - Example: `console\\.log\\(\\s*['\"]Processing.*?['\"]\\s*\\);`\n\n7. After removal, implement these testing steps:\n   - Run all unit tests\n   - Check browser console for any remaining logs during manual testing\n   - Verify error handling still works properly\n   - Test edge cases where logs might have been masking issues\n\n8. Consider implementing a linting rule to prevent unnecessary console logs in future code:\n   - Add ESLint rule \"no-console\" with appropriate exceptions\n   - Configure CI/CD pipeline to fail if new console logs are added\n\n9. Document any logging standards for the team to follow going forward.\n\n10. After committing changes, monitor the application in staging environment to ensure no critical information is lost.\n</info added on 2025-05-02T20:47:56.080Z>",
