+## Silent Mode Implementation Pattern in MCP Direct Functions
+
+Direct functions (the `*Direct` functions in `mcp-server/src/core/direct-functions/`) need to carefully implement silent mode to prevent console logs from interfering with the structured JSON responses required by MCP. This involves both using `enableSilentMode`/`disableSilentMode` around core function calls AND passing the MCP logger via the standard wrapper pattern (see mcp.mdc). Here's the standard pattern for correct implementation:
+
+1. **Import Silent Mode Utilities**:
+   ```javascript
+   import { enableSilentMode, disableSilentMode, isSilentMode } from '../../../../scripts/modules/utils.js';
+   ```
+
+2. **Parameter Matching with Core Functions**:
+   - ✅ **DO**: Ensure direct function parameters match the core function parameters
+   - ✅ **DO**: Check the original core function signature before implementing
+   - ❌ **DON'T**: Add parameters to direct functions that don't exist in core functions
+   ```javascript
+   // Example: Core function signature
+   // async function expandTask(tasksPath, taskId, numSubtasks, useResearch, additionalContext, options)
+   
+   // Direct function implementation - extract only parameters that exist in core
+   export async function expandTaskDirect(args, log, context = {}) {
+     // Extract parameters that match the core function
+     const taskId = parseInt(args.id, 10);
+     const numSubtasks = args.num ? parseInt(args.num, 10) : undefined;
+     const useResearch = args.research === true;
+     const additionalContext = args.prompt || '';
+     
+     // Later pass these parameters in the correct order to the core function
+     const result = await expandTask(
+       tasksPath, 
+       taskId, 
+       numSubtasks, 
+       useResearch, 
+       additionalContext,
+       { mcpLog: log, session: context.session }
+     );
+   }
+   ```
+
+3. **Checking Silent Mode State**:
+   - ✅ **DO**: Always use `isSilentMode()` function to check current status
+   - ❌ **DON'T**: Directly access the global `silentMode` variable or `global.silentMode`
+   ```javascript
+   // CORRECT: Use the function to check current state
+   if (!isSilentMode()) {
+     // Only create a loading indicator if not in silent mode
+     loadingIndicator = startLoadingIndicator('Processing...');
+   }
+   
+   // INCORRECT: Don't access global variables directly
+   if (!silentMode) { // ❌ WRONG
+     loadingIndicator = startLoadingIndicator('Processing...');
+   }
+   ```
+
+4. **Wrapping Core Function Calls**:
+   - ✅ **DO**: Use a try/finally block pattern to ensure silent mode is always restored
+   - ✅ **DO**: Enable silent mode before calling core functions that produce console output
+   - ✅ **DO**: Disable silent mode in a finally block to ensure it runs even if errors occur
+   - ❌ **DON'T**: Enable silent mode without ensuring it gets disabled
+   ```javascript
+   export async function someDirectFunction(args, log) {
+     try {
+       // Argument preparation
+       const tasksPath = findTasksJsonPath(args, log);
+       const someArg = args.someArg;
+       
+       // Enable silent mode to prevent console logs
+       enableSilentMode();
+       
+       try {
+         // Call core function which might produce console output
+         const result = await someCoreFunction(tasksPath, someArg);
+         
+         // Return standardized result object
+         return { 
+           success: true, 
+           data: result, 
+           fromCache: false 
+         };
+       } finally {
+         // ALWAYS disable silent mode in finally block
+         disableSilentMode();
+       }
+     } catch (error) {
+       // Standard error handling
+       log.error(`Error in direct function: ${error.message}`);
+       return { 
+         success: false, 
+         error: { code: 'OPERATION_ERROR', message: error.message }, 
+         fromCache: false 
+       };
+     }
+   }
+   ```
+
+5. **Mixed Parameter and Global Silent Mode Handling**:
+   - For functions that need to handle both a passed `silentMode` parameter and check global state:
+   ```javascript
+   // Check both the function parameter and global state
+   const isSilent = options.silentMode || (typeof options.silentMode === 'undefined' && isSilentMode());
+   
+   if (!isSilent) {
+     console.log('Operation starting...');
+   }
+   ```
+
+By following these patterns consistently, direct functions will properly manage console output suppression while ensuring that silent mode is always properly reset, even when errors occur. This creates a more robust system that helps prevent unexpected silent mode states that could cause logging problems in subsequent operations.

+## 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.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)) 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>'` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)).
+    *   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` (see [`taskmaster.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/taskmaster.mdc)).
+    *   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 Cursor rules in the `.cursor/rules/` directory to capture these patterns, following the guidelines in [`cursor_rules.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/cursor_rules.mdc) and [`self_improve.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/self_improve.mdc).
+
+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 [`changeset.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/changeset.mdc). 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 in the dependency chain (e.g., using `next_task` / `task-master next`) and repeat this iterative process starting from step 1.

+         fromCache: false // Ensure this is included if applicable
        };
      }
      ```
 
-5. **Silent Mode Implementation**:
+5. **Handling Logging Context (`mcpLog`)**:
-   - ✅ **DO**: Import silent mode utilities at the top of your file
+   - **Requirement**: Core functions that use the internal `report` helper function (common in `task-manager.js`, `dependency-manager.js`, etc.) expect the `options` object to potentially contain an `mcpLog` property. This `mcpLog` object **must** have callable methods for each log level (e.g., `mcpLog.info(...)`, `mcpLog.error(...)`).
+   - **Challenge**: The `log` object provided by FastMCP to the direct function's context, while functional, might not perfectly match this expected structure or could change in the future. Passing it directly can lead to runtime errors like `mcpLog[level] is not a function`.
+   - **Solution: The Logger Wrapper Pattern**: To reliably bridge the FastMCP `log` object and the core function's `mcpLog` expectation, use a simple wrapper object within the direct function:
      ```javascript
-     import { enableSilentMode, disableSilentMode } from '../../../../scripts/modules/utils.js';
+     // Standard logWrapper pattern within a Direct Function
+     const logWrapper = {
+       info: (message, ...args) => log.info(message, ...args),
+       warn: (message, ...args) => log.warn(message, ...args),
+       error: (message, ...args) => log.error(message, ...args),
+       debug: (message, ...args) => log.debug && log.debug(message, ...args), // Handle optional debug
+       success: (message, ...args) => log.info(message, ...args) // Map success to info if needed
+     };
+
+     // ... later when calling the core function ...
+     await coreFunction(
+       // ... other arguments ...
+       tasksPath, 
+       taskId,
+       { 
+         mcpLog: logWrapper, // Pass the wrapper object
+         session 
+       },
+       'json' // Pass 'json' output format if supported by core function
+     );
      ```
-   - ✅ **DO**: Wrap core function calls with silent mode control
+   - **Critical For JSON Output Format**: Passing the `logWrapper` as `mcpLog` serves a dual purpose:
-     ```javascript
+     1. **Prevents Runtime Errors**: It ensures the `mcpLog[level](...)` calls within the core function succeed
-     // Enable silent mode before the core function call
+     2. **Controls Output Format**: In functions like `updateTaskById` and `updateSubtaskById`, the presence of `mcpLog` in the options triggers setting `outputFormat = 'json'` (instead of 'text'). This prevents UI elements (spinners, boxes) from being generated, which would break the JSON response.
-     enableSilentMode();
+   - **Proven Solution**: This pattern has successfully fixed multiple issues in our MCP tools (including `update-task` and `update-subtask`), where direct passing of the `log` object or omitting `mcpLog` led to either runtime errors or JSON parsing failures from UI output.
-     
+   - **When To Use**: Implement this wrapper in any direct function that calls a core function with an `options` object that might use `mcpLog` for logging or output format control.
-     // Execute core function
+   - **Why it Works**: The `logWrapper` explicitly defines the `.info()`, `.warn()`, `.error()`, etc., methods that the core function's `report` helper needs, ensuring the `mcpLog[level](...)` call succeeds. It simply forwards the logging calls to the actual FastMCP `log` object.
-     const result = await coreFunction(param1, param2);
+   - **Combined with Silent Mode**: Remember that using the `logWrapper` for `mcpLog` is **necessary *in addition* to using `enableSilentMode()` / `disableSilentMode()`** (see next point). The wrapper handles structured logging *within* the core function, while silent mode suppresses direct `console.log` and UI elements (spinners, boxes) that would break the MCP JSON response.
-     
+
-     // Restore normal logging
+6. **Silent Mode Implementation**:
-     disableSilentMode();
+    - ✅ **DO**: Import silent mode utilities at the top: `import { enableSilentMode, disableSilentMode, isSilentMode } from '../../../../scripts/modules/utils.js';`
-     ```
+    - ✅ **DO**: Ensure core Task Master functions called from direct functions do **not** pollute `stdout` with console output (banners, spinners, logs) that would break MCP's JSON communication.
-   - ✅ **DO**: Add proper error handling to ensure silent mode is disabled
+      - **Preferred**: Modify the core function to accept an `outputFormat: 'json'` parameter and check it internally before printing UI elements. Pass `'json'` from the direct function.
-     ```javascript
+      - **Required Fallback/Guarantee**: If the core function cannot be modified or its output suppression is unreliable, **wrap the core function call** within the direct function using `enableSilentMode()` / `disableSilentMode()` in a `try/finally` block. This guarantees no console output interferes with the MCP response.
-     try {
+    - ✅ **DO**: Use `isSilentMode()` function to check global silent mode status if needed (rare in direct functions), NEVER access the global `silentMode` variable directly.
-       enableSilentMode();
+    - ❌ **DON'T**: Wrap AI client initialization or AI API calls in `enable/disableSilentMode`; their logging is controlled via the `log` object (passed potentially within the `logWrapper` for core functions).
-       // Core function execution
+    - ❌ **DON'T**: Assume a core function is silent just because it *should* be. Verify or use the `enable/disableSilentMode` wrapper.
-       const result = await coreFunction(param1, param2);
+    - **Example (Direct Function Guaranteeing Silence and using Log Wrapper)**:
-       disableSilentMode();
+      ```javascript
-       return { success: true, data: result };
+      export async function coreWrapperDirect(args, log, context = {}) {
-     } catch (error) {
+        const { session } = context;
-       // Make sure to restore normal logging even if there's an error
+        const tasksPath = findTasksJsonPath(args, log);
-       disableSilentMode();

-       log.error(`Error in function: ${error.message}`);

-     }
+          // Call core function, passing wrapper and 'json' format
-     ```
+          const result = await coreFunction(
-   - ❌ **DON'T**: Forget to disable silent mode when errors occur
+             tasksPath, 
-   - ❌ **DON'T**: Leave silent mode enabled outside a direct function's scope
+             args.param1,

+          ); 
+          return { success: true, data: result };

+           log.error(`Error: ${error.message}`);
+           // Return standardized error object
+           return { success: false, error: { /* ... */ } };
+        } finally {
+           disableSilentMode(); // Critical: Always disable in finally
+        }
+      }
+      ```
+
+7. **Debugging MCP/Core Logic Interaction**:
+    - ✅ **DO**: If an MCP tool fails with unclear errors (like JSON parsing failures), run the equivalent `task-master` CLI command in the terminal. The CLI often provides more detailed error messages originating from the core logic (e.g., `ReferenceError`, stack traces) that are obscured by the MCP layer.
+
+### Specific Guidelines for AI-Based Direct Functions
+
+Direct functions that interact with AI (e.g., `addTaskDirect`, `expandTaskDirect`) have additional responsibilities:
+
+- **Context Parameter**: These functions receive an additional `context` object as their third parameter. **Critically, this object should only contain `{ session }`**. Do NOT expect or use `reportProgress` from this context.
+  ```javascript
+  export async function yourAIDirect(args, log, context = {}) {
+    const { session } = context; // Only expect session
+    // ...
+  }
+  ```
+- **AI Client Initialization**:
+  - ✅ **DO**: Use the utilities from [`mcp-server/src/core/utils/ai-client-utils.js`](mdc:mcp-server/src/core/utils/ai-client-utils.js) (e.g., `getAnthropicClientForMCP(session, log)`) to get AI client instances. These correctly use the `session` object to resolve API keys.
+  - ✅ **DO**: Wrap client initialization in a try/catch block and return a specific `AI_CLIENT_ERROR` on failure.
+- **AI Interaction**:
+  - ✅ **DO**: Build prompts using helper functions where appropriate (e.g., from `ai-prompt-helpers.js`).
+  - ✅ **DO**: Make the AI API call using appropriate helpers (e.g., `_handleAnthropicStream`). Pass the `log` object to these helpers for internal logging. **Do NOT pass `reportProgress`**.
+  - ✅ **DO**: Parse the AI response using helpers (e.g., `parseTaskJsonResponse`) and handle parsing errors with a specific code (e.g., `RESPONSE_PARSING_ERROR`).
+- **Calling Core Logic**:
+  - ✅ **DO**: After successful AI interaction, call the relevant core Task Master function (from `scripts/modules/`) if needed (e.g., `addTaskDirect` calls `addTask`).
+  - ✅ **DO**: Pass necessary data, including potentially the parsed AI results, to the core function.
+  - ✅ **DO**: If the core function can produce console output, call it with an `outputFormat: 'json'` argument (or similar, depending on the function) to suppress CLI output. Ensure the core function is updated to respect this. Use `enableSilentMode/disableSilentMode` around the core function call as a fallback if `outputFormat` is not supported or insufficient.
+- **Progress Indication**:
+  - ❌ **DON'T**: Call `reportProgress` within the direct function.
+  - ✅ **DO**: If intermediate progress status is needed *within* the long-running direct function, use standard logging: `log.info('Progress: Processing AI response...')`.

 ## Key Principles
 
 - **Prefer Direct Function Calls**: MCP tools should always call `*Direct` wrappers instead of `executeTaskMasterCommand`.
-- **Standardized Execution Flow**: Follow the pattern: MCP Tool -> `getProjectRootFromSession` -> `*Direct` Function -> Core Logic.
+- **Standardized Execution Flow**: Follow the pattern: MCP Tool -> `getProjectRootFromSession` -> `*Direct` Function -> Core Logic / AI Logic.
 - **Path Resolution via Direct Functions**: The `*Direct` function is responsible for finding the exact `tasks.json` path using `findTasksJsonPath`, relying on the `projectRoot` passed in `args`.
-- **Silent Mode in Direct Functions**: Wrap all core function calls with `enableSilentMode()` and `disableSilentMode()` to prevent logs from interfering with JSON responses.
+- **AI Logic in Direct Functions**: For AI-based tools, the `*Direct` function handles AI client initialization, calls, and parsing, using the `session` object passed in its context.
-- **Async Processing for Intensive Operations**: Use AsyncOperationManager for CPU-intensive or long-running operations.
+- **Silent Mode in Direct Functions**: Wrap *core function* calls (from `scripts/modules`) with `enableSilentMode()` and `disableSilentMode()` if they produce console output not handled by `outputFormat`. Do not wrap AI calls.
+- **Selective Async Processing**: Use `AsyncOperationManager` in the *MCP Tool layer* for operations involving multiple steps or long waits beyond a single AI call (e.g., file processing + AI call + file writing). Simple AI calls handled entirely within the `*Direct` function (like `addTaskDirect`) may not need it at the tool layer.
+- **No `reportProgress` in Direct Functions**: Do not pass or use `reportProgress` within `*Direct` functions. Use `log.info()` for internal progress or report progress from the `AsyncOperationManager` callback in the MCP tool layer.
+- **Output Formatting**: Ensure core functions called by `*Direct` functions can suppress CLI output, ideally via an `outputFormat` parameter.
 - **Project Initialization**: Use the initialize_project tool for setting up new projects in integrated environments.
-- **Centralized Utilities**: Use helpers from `mcp-server/src/tools/utils.js` (like `handleApiResult`, `getProjectRootFromSession`, `getCachedOrExecute`) and `mcp-server/src/core/utils/path-utils.js` (`findTasksJsonPath`). See [`utilities.mdc`](mdc:.cursor/rules/utilities.mdc).

-  - ❌ **DON'T**: Enable silent mode outside of direct functions in the MCP server
+  - ✅ **DO**: Handle mixed parameter/global silent mode correctly for functions accepting both (less common now, prefer `outputFormat`):
+    ```javascript
+    // Check both the passed parameter and global silent mode

+  - ❌ **DON'T**: Forget to disable silent mode in a `finally` block if you enabled it.
+  - ❌ **DON'T**: Access the global `silentMode` flag directly.
+
+- **Debugging Strategy**:
+  - ✅ **DO**: If an MCP tool fails with vague errors (e.g., JSON parsing issues like `Unexpected token ... is not valid JSON`), **try running the equivalent CLI command directly in the terminal** (e.g., `task-master expand --all`). CLI output often provides much more specific error messages (like missing function definitions or stack traces from the core logic) that pinpoint the root cause.
+  - ❌ **DON'T**: Rely solely on MCP logs if the error is unclear; use the CLI as a complementary debugging tool for core logic issues.

+*   **MODEL**: Claude model to use (default: `claude-3-opus-20240229`). 
+*   **MAX_TOKENS**: Maximum tokens for AI responses (default: 8192).
+*   **TEMPERATURE**: Temperature for AI model responses (default: 0.7).
+*   **DEBUG**: Enable debug logging (`true`/`false`, default: `false`).
+*   **LOG_LEVEL**: Console output level (`debug`, `info`, `warn`, `error`, default: `info`).
+*   **DEFAULT_SUBTASKS**: Default number of subtasks for `expand` (default: 5).
+*   **DEFAULT_PRIORITY**: Default priority for new tasks (default: `medium`).
+*   **PROJECT_NAME**: Project name used in metadata.
+*   **PROJECT_VERSION**: Project version used in metadata.
+*   **PERPLEXITY_API_KEY**: API key for Perplexity AI (for `--research` flags).
+*   **PERPLEXITY_MODEL**: Perplexity model to use (default: `sonar-medium-online`).
+
+Set these in your `.env` file in the project root or in your environment before running Taskmaster.

+- **Silent Mode Control**:
+  - ✅ DO: Use the exported silent mode functions rather than accessing global variables
+  - ✅ DO: Always use `isSilentMode()` to check the current silent mode state
+  - ✅ DO: Ensure silent mode is disabled in a `finally` block to prevent it from staying enabled

+  // Global silent mode flag (private to the module)
+  let silentMode = false;

+  // Enable silent mode
+  function enableSilentMode() {
+    silentMode = true;

+  // Disable silent mode

+    silentMode = false;
+  }
+  
+  // Check if silent mode is enabled
+  function isSilentMode() {
+    return silentMode;
+  }
+  
+  // Example of proper usage in another module:
+  import { enableSilentMode, disableSilentMode, isSilentMode } from './utils.js';
+  
+  // Check current status
+  if (!isSilentMode()) {
+    console.log('Silent mode is not enabled');

+  
+  // Use try/finally pattern to ensure silent mode is disabled

+    enableSilentMode();
+    // Do something that should suppress console output
+    performOperation();
+  } finally {
+    disableSilentMode();
+  }
+  ```
+
+- **Integration with Logging**:
+  - ✅ DO: Make the `log` function respect silent mode
+  ```javascript
+  function log(level, ...args) {
+    // Skip logging if silent mode is enabled
+    if (isSilentMode()) {
+      return;
+    }
+    
+    // Rest of logging logic...
+  }
+  ```
+
+- **Common Patterns for Silent Mode**:
+  - ✅ DO: In **direct functions** (`mcp-server/src/core/direct-functions/*`) that call **core functions** (`scripts/modules/*`), ensure console output from the core function is suppressed to avoid breaking MCP JSON responses.
+    - **Preferred Method**: Update the core function to accept an `outputFormat` parameter (e.g., `outputFormat = 'text'`) and make it check `outputFormat === 'text'` before displaying any UI elements (banners, spinners, boxes, direct `console.log`s). Pass `'json'` from the direct function.
+    - **Necessary Fallback/Guarantee**: If the core function *cannot* be modified or its output suppression via `outputFormat` is unreliable, **wrap the core function call within the direct function** using `enableSilentMode()` and `disableSilentMode()` in a `try/finally` block. This acts as a safety net.
+  ```javascript
+  // Example in a direct function
+  export async function someOperationDirect(args, log) {
+    let result;
+    const tasksPath = findTasksJsonPath(args, log); // Get path first
+    
+    // Option 1: Core function handles 'json' format (Preferred)
+    try {
+      result = await coreFunction(tasksPath, ...otherArgs, 'json'); // Pass 'json'
+      return { success: true, data: result, fromCache: false };
+    } catch (error) {
+      // Handle error...
+    }
+
+    // Option 2: Core function output unreliable (Fallback/Guarantee)
+    try {
+      enableSilentMode(); // Enable before call
+      result = await coreFunction(tasksPath, ...otherArgs); // Call without format param
+    } catch (error) {
+      // Handle error...
+      log.error(`Failed: ${error.message}`);
+      return { success: false, error: { /* ... */ } };
+    } finally {
+      disableSilentMode(); // ALWAYS disable in finally
+    }
+    return { success: true, data: result, fromCache: false }; // Assuming success if no error caught
+  }
+  ```
+  - ✅ DO: For functions that accept a silent mode parameter but also need to check global state (less common):
+  ```javascript
+  // Check both the passed parameter and global silent mode

-## Integrating with Cursor AI
+Task Master is licensed under the MIT License with Commons Clause. This means you can:
 
-Claude Task Master is designed to work seamlessly with [Cursor AI](https://www.cursor.so/), providing a structured workflow for AI-driven development.
+✅ **Allowed**:
 
-### Setup with Cursor
+- Use Task Master for any purpose (personal, commercial, academic)
+- Modify the code
+- Distribute copies
+- Create and sell products built using Task Master
 
-1. After initializing your project, open it in Cursor
+❌ **Not Allowed**:
-2. The `.cursor/rules/dev_workflow.mdc` file is automatically loaded by Cursor, providing the AI with knowledge about the task management system
-3. Place your PRD document in the `scripts/` directory (e.g., `scripts/prd.txt`)
-4. Open Cursor's AI chat and switch to Agent mode
 
-### Setting up MCP in Cursor
+- Sell Task Master itself
+- Offer Task Master as a hosted service
+- Create competing products based on Task Master
 
-To enable enhanced task management capabilities directly within Cursor using the Model Control Protocol (MCP):
+See the [LICENSE](LICENSE) file for the complete license text and [licensing details](docs/licensing.md) for more information.
-
-1. Go to Cursor settings
-2. Navigate to the MCP section
-3. Click on "Add New MCP Server"
-4. Configure with the following details:
-   - Name: "Task Master"
-   - Type: "Command"
-   - Command: "npx -y --package task-master-ai task-master-mcp"
-5. Save the settings
-
-Once configured, you can interact with Task Master's task management commands directly through Cursor's interface, providing a more integrated experience.
-
-### Initial Task Generation
-
-In Cursor's AI chat, instruct the agent to generate tasks from your PRD:
-
-```
-Please use the task-master parse-prd command to generate tasks from my PRD. The PRD is located at scripts/prd.txt.
-```
-
-The agent will execute:
-
-```bash
-task-master parse-prd scripts/prd.txt
-```
-
-This will:
-
-- Parse your PRD document
-- Generate a structured `tasks.json` file with tasks, dependencies, priorities, and test strategies
-- The agent will understand this process due to the Cursor rules
-
-### Generate Individual Task Files
-
-Next, ask the agent to generate individual task files:
-
-```
-Please generate individual task files from tasks.json
-```
-
-The agent will execute:
-
-```bash
-task-master generate
-```
-
-This creates individual task files in the `tasks/` directory (e.g., `task_001.txt`, `task_002.txt`), making it easier to reference specific tasks.
-
-## AI-Driven Development Workflow
-
-The Cursor agent is pre-configured (via the rules file) to follow this workflow:
-
-### 1. Task Discovery and Selection
-
-Ask the agent to list available tasks:
-
-```
-What tasks are available to work on next?
-```
-
-The agent will:
-
-- Run `task-master list` to see all tasks
-- Run `task-master next` to determine the next task to work on
-- Analyze dependencies to determine which tasks are ready to be worked on
-- Prioritize tasks based on priority level and ID order
-- Suggest the next task(s) to implement
-
-### 2. Task Implementation
-
-When implementing a task, the agent will:
-
-- Reference the task's details section for implementation specifics
-- Consider dependencies on previous tasks
-- Follow the project's coding standards
-- Create appropriate tests based on the task's testStrategy
-
-You can ask:
-
-```
-Let's implement task 3. What does it involve?
-```
-
-### 3. Task Verification
-
-Before marking a task as complete, verify it according to:
-
-- The task's specified testStrategy
-- Any automated tests in the codebase
-- Manual verification if required
-
-### 4. Task Completion
-
-When a task is completed, tell the agent:
-
-```
-Task 3 is now complete. Please update its status.
-```
-
-The agent will execute:
-
-```bash
-task-master set-status --id=3 --status=done
-```
-
-### 5. Handling Implementation Drift
-
-If during implementation, you discover that:
-
-- The current approach differs significantly from what was planned
-- Future tasks need to be modified due to current implementation choices
-- New dependencies or requirements have emerged
-
-Tell the agent:
-
-```
-We've changed our approach. We're now using Express instead of Fastify. Please update all future tasks to reflect this change.
-```
-
-The agent will execute:
-
-```bash
-task-master update --from=4 --prompt="Now we are using Express instead of Fastify."
-```
-
-This will rewrite or re-scope subsequent tasks in tasks.json while preserving completed work.
-
-### 6. Breaking Down Complex Tasks
-
-For complex tasks that need more granularity:
-
-```
-Task 5 seems complex. Can you break it down into subtasks?
-```
-
-The agent will execute:
-
-```bash
-task-master expand --id=5 --num=3
-```
-
-You can provide additional context:
-
-```
-Please break down task 5 with a focus on security considerations.
-```
-
-The agent will execute:
-
-```bash
-task-master expand --id=5 --prompt="Focus on security aspects"
-```
-
-You can also expand all pending tasks:
-
-```
-Please break down all pending tasks into subtasks.
-```
-
-The agent will execute:
-
-```bash
-task-master expand --all
-```
-
-For research-backed subtask generation using Perplexity AI:
-
-```
-Please break down task 5 using research-backed generation.
-```
-
-The agent will execute:
-
-```bash
-task-master expand --id=5 --research
-```
-
-## Command Reference
-
-Here's a comprehensive reference of all available commands:
-
-### Parse PRD
-
-```bash
-# Parse a PRD file and generate tasks
-task-master parse-prd <prd-file.txt>
-
-# Limit the number of tasks generated
-task-master parse-prd <prd-file.txt> --num-tasks=10
-```
-
-### List Tasks
-
-```bash
-# List all tasks
-task-master list
-
-# List tasks with a specific status
-task-master list --status=<status>
-
-# List tasks with subtasks
-task-master list --with-subtasks
-
-# List tasks with a specific status and include subtasks
-task-master list --status=<status> --with-subtasks
-```
-
-### Show Next Task
-
-```bash
-# Show the next task to work on based on dependencies and status
-task-master next
-```
-
-### Show Specific Task
-
-```bash
-# Show details of a specific task
-task-master show <id>
-# or
-task-master show --id=<id>
-
-# View a specific subtask (e.g., subtask 2 of task 1)
-task-master show 1.2
-```
-
-### Update Tasks
-
-```bash
-# Update tasks from a specific ID and provide context
-task-master update --from=<id> --prompt="<prompt>"
-```
-
-### Update a Specific Task
-
-```bash
-# Update a single task by ID with new information
-task-master update-task --id=<id> --prompt="<prompt>"
-
-# Use research-backed updates with Perplexity AI
-task-master update-task --id=<id> --prompt="<prompt>" --research
-```
-
-### Update a Subtask
-
-```bash
-# Append additional information to a specific subtask
-task-master update-subtask --id=<parentId.subtaskId> --prompt="<prompt>"
-
-# Example: Add details about API rate limiting to subtask 2 of task 5
-task-master update-subtask --id=5.2 --prompt="Add rate limiting of 100 requests per minute"
-
-# Use research-backed updates with Perplexity AI
-task-master update-subtask --id=<parentId.subtaskId> --prompt="<prompt>" --research
-```
-
-Unlike the `update-task` command which replaces task information, the `update-subtask` command _appends_ new information to the existing subtask details, marking it with a timestamp. This is useful for iteratively enhancing subtasks while preserving the original content.
-
-### Remove Task
-
-```bash
-# Remove a task permanently
-task-master remove-task --id=<id>
-
-# Remove a subtask permanently
-task-master remove-task --id=<parentId.subtaskId>
-
-# Skip the confirmation prompt
-task-master remove-task --id=<id> --yes
-```
-
-The `remove-task` command permanently deletes a task or subtask from `tasks.json`. It also automatically cleans up any references to the deleted task in other tasks' dependencies. Consider using 'blocked', 'cancelled', or 'deferred' status instead if you want to keep the task for reference.
-
-### Generate Task Files
-
-```bash
-# Generate individual task files from tasks.json
-task-master generate
-```
-
-### Set Task Status
-
-```bash
-# Set status of a single task
-task-master set-status --id=<id> --status=<status>
-
-# Set status for multiple tasks
-task-master set-status --id=1,2,3 --status=<status>
-
-# Set status for subtasks
-task-master set-status --id=1.1,1.2 --status=<status>
-```
-
-When marking a task as "done", all of its subtasks will automatically be marked as "done" as well.
-
-### Expand Tasks
-
-```bash
-# Expand a specific task with subtasks
-task-master expand --id=<id> --num=<number>
-
-# Expand with additional context
-task-master expand --id=<id> --prompt="<context>"
-
-# Expand all pending tasks
-task-master expand --all
-
-# Force regeneration of subtasks for tasks that already have them
-task-master expand --all --force
-
-# Research-backed subtask generation for a specific task
-task-master expand --id=<id> --research
-
-# Research-backed generation for all tasks
-task-master expand --all --research
-```
-
-### Clear Subtasks
-
-```bash
-# Clear subtasks from a specific task
-task-master clear-subtasks --id=<id>
-
-# Clear subtasks from multiple tasks
-task-master clear-subtasks --id=1,2,3
-
-# Clear subtasks from all tasks
-task-master clear-subtasks --all
-```
-
-### Analyze Task Complexity
-
-```bash
-# Analyze complexity of all tasks
-task-master analyze-complexity
-
-# Save report to a custom location
-task-master analyze-complexity --output=my-report.json
-
-# Use a specific LLM model
-task-master analyze-complexity --model=claude-3-opus-20240229
-
-# Set a custom complexity threshold (1-10)
-task-master analyze-complexity --threshold=6
-
-# Use an alternative tasks file
-task-master analyze-complexity --file=custom-tasks.json
-
-# Use Perplexity AI for research-backed complexity analysis
-task-master analyze-complexity --research
-```
-

-
-```bash
-# Display the task complexity analysis report
-task-master complexity-report
-
-# View a report at a custom location
-task-master complexity-report --file=my-report.json

-## Feature Details
-
-### Analyzing Task Complexity
-
-The `analyze-complexity` command:
-
-- Analyzes each task using AI to assess its complexity on a scale of 1-10
-- Recommends optimal number of subtasks based on configured DEFAULT_SUBTASKS
-- Generates tailored prompts for expanding each task
-- Creates a comprehensive JSON report with ready-to-use commands
-- Saves the report to scripts/task-complexity-report.json by default
-
-The generated report contains:
-
-- Complexity analysis for each task (scored 1-10)
-- Recommended number of subtasks based on complexity
-- AI-generated expansion prompts customized for each task
-- Ready-to-run expansion commands directly within each task analysis
-
-### Viewing Complexity Report
-
-The `complexity-report` command:
-
-- Displays a formatted, easy-to-read version of the complexity analysis report
-- Shows tasks organized by complexity score (highest to lowest)
-- Provides complexity distribution statistics (low, medium, high)
-- Highlights tasks recommended for expansion based on threshold score
-- Includes ready-to-use expansion commands for each complex task
-- If no report exists, offers to generate one on the spot
-
-### Smart Task Expansion
-
-The `expand` command automatically checks for and uses the complexity report:
-
-When a complexity report exists:
-
-- Tasks are automatically expanded using the recommended subtask count and prompts
-- When expanding all tasks, they're processed in order of complexity (highest first)
-- Research-backed generation is preserved from the complexity analysis
-- You can still override recommendations with explicit command-line options
-
-Example workflow:
-
-```bash
-# Generate the complexity analysis report with research capabilities
-task-master analyze-complexity --research
-
-# Review the report in a readable format
-task-master complexity-report
-
-# Expand tasks using the optimized recommendations
-task-master expand --id=8
-# or expand all tasks
-task-master expand --all
-```
-
-### Finding the Next Task
-
-The `next` command:
-
-- Identifies tasks that are pending/in-progress and have all dependencies satisfied
-- Prioritizes tasks by priority level, dependency count, and task ID
-- Displays comprehensive information about the selected task:
-  - Basic task details (ID, title, priority, dependencies)
-  - Implementation details
-  - Subtasks (if they exist)
-- Provides contextual suggested actions:
-  - Command to mark the task as in-progress
-  - Command to mark the task as done
-  - Commands for working with subtasks
-
-### Viewing Specific Task Details
-
-The `show` command:
-
-- Displays comprehensive details about a specific task or subtask
-- Shows task status, priority, dependencies, and detailed implementation notes
-- For parent tasks, displays all subtasks and their status
-- For subtasks, shows parent task relationship
-- Provides contextual action suggestions based on the task's state
-- Works with both regular tasks and subtasks (using the format taskId.subtaskId)

-## Best Practices for AI-Driven Development
-
-1. **Start with a detailed PRD**: The more detailed your PRD, the better the generated tasks will be.
-
-2. **Review generated tasks**: After parsing the PRD, review the tasks to ensure they make sense and have appropriate dependencies.
-
-3. **Analyze task complexity**: Use the complexity analysis feature to identify which tasks should be broken down further.
-
-4. **Follow the dependency chain**: Always respect task dependencies - the Cursor agent will help with this.
-
-5. **Update as you go**: If your implementation diverges from the plan, use the update command to keep future tasks aligned with your current approach.
-
-6. **Break down complex tasks**: Use the expand command to break down complex tasks into manageable subtasks.
-
-7. **Regenerate task files**: After any updates to tasks.json, regenerate the task files to keep them in sync.
-
-8. **Communicate context to the agent**: When asking the Cursor agent to help with a task, provide context about what you're trying to achieve.
-
-9. **Validate dependencies**: Periodically run the validate-dependencies command to check for invalid or circular dependencies.
-
-## Example Cursor AI Interactions
-
-### Starting a new project
-
-```
-I've just initialized a new project with Claude Task Master. I have a PRD at scripts/prd.txt.
-Can you help me parse it and set up the initial tasks?
-```
-
-### Working on tasks
-
-```
-What's the next task I should work on? Please consider dependencies and priorities.
-```
-
-### Implementing a specific task
-
-```
-I'd like to implement task 4. Can you help me understand what needs to be done and how to approach it?
-```
-
-### Managing subtasks
-
-```
-I need to regenerate the subtasks for task 3 with a different approach. Can you help me clear and regenerate them?
-```
-
-### Handling changes
-
-```
-We've decided to use MongoDB instead of PostgreSQL. Can you update all future tasks to reflect this change?
-```
-
-### Completing work
-
-```
-I've finished implementing the authentication system described in task 2. All tests are passing.
-Please mark it as complete and tell me what I should work on next.
-```
-
-### Analyzing complexity
-
-```
-Can you analyze the complexity of our tasks to help me understand which ones need to be broken down further?
-```
-
-### Viewing complexity report
-
-```
-Can you show me the complexity report in a more readable format?

 ## Best Practices
 
 1. **Error Handling**:
+
    - Always use try/catch blocks around both client initialization and API calls
    - Use `handleClaudeError` to provide user-friendly error messages
    - Return standardized error objects with code and message
 
 2. **Progress Reporting**:
+
    - Report progress at key points (starting, processing, completing)
    - Include meaningful status messages
    - Include error details in progress reports when failures occur
 
 3. **Session Handling**:
+
    - Always pass the session from the context to the AI client getters
    - Use `getModelConfig` to respect user settings from session
 
 4. **Model Selection**:
+
    - Use `getBestAvailableAIModel` when you need to select between different models
    - Set `requiresResearch: true` when you need Perplexity capabilities

+# Task Master Command Reference
+
+Here's a comprehensive reference of all available commands:
+
+## Parse PRD
+
+```bash
+# Parse a PRD file and generate tasks
+task-master parse-prd <prd-file.txt>
+
+# Limit the number of tasks generated
+task-master parse-prd <prd-file.txt> --num-tasks=10
+```
+
+## List Tasks
+
+```bash
+# List all tasks
+task-master list
+
+# List tasks with a specific status
+task-master list --status=<status>
+
+# List tasks with subtasks
+task-master list --with-subtasks
+
+# List tasks with a specific status and include subtasks
+task-master list --status=<status> --with-subtasks
+```
+
+## Show Next Task
+
+```bash
+# Show the next task to work on based on dependencies and status
+task-master next
+```
+
+## Show Specific Task
+
+```bash
+# Show details of a specific task
+task-master show <id>
+# or
+task-master show --id=<id>
+
+# View a specific subtask (e.g., subtask 2 of task 1)
+task-master show 1.2
+```
+
+## Update Tasks
+
+```bash
+# Update tasks from a specific ID and provide context
+task-master update --from=<id> --prompt="<prompt>"
+```
+
+## Update a Specific Task
+
+```bash
+# Update a single task by ID with new information
+task-master update-task --id=<id> --prompt="<prompt>"
+
+# Use research-backed updates with Perplexity AI
+task-master update-task --id=<id> --prompt="<prompt>" --research
+```
+
+## Update a Subtask
+
+```bash
+# Append additional information to a specific subtask
+task-master update-subtask --id=<parentId.subtaskId> --prompt="<prompt>"
+
+# Example: Add details about API rate limiting to subtask 2 of task 5
+task-master update-subtask --id=5.2 --prompt="Add rate limiting of 100 requests per minute"
+
+# Use research-backed updates with Perplexity AI
+task-master update-subtask --id=<parentId.subtaskId> --prompt="<prompt>" --research
+```
+
+Unlike the `update-task` command which replaces task information, the `update-subtask` command _appends_ new information to the existing subtask details, marking it with a timestamp. This is useful for iteratively enhancing subtasks while preserving the original content.
+
+## Generate Task Files
+
+```bash
+# Generate individual task files from tasks.json
+task-master generate
+```
+
+## Set Task Status
+
+```bash
+# Set status of a single task
+task-master set-status --id=<id> --status=<status>
+
+# Set status for multiple tasks
+task-master set-status --id=1,2,3 --status=<status>
+
+# Set status for subtasks
+task-master set-status --id=1.1,1.2 --status=<status>
+```
+
+When marking a task as "done", all of its subtasks will automatically be marked as "done" as well.
+
+## Expand Tasks
+
+```bash
+# Expand a specific task with subtasks
+task-master expand --id=<id> --num=<number>
+
+# Expand with additional context
+task-master expand --id=<id> --prompt="<context>"
+
+# Expand all pending tasks
+task-master expand --all
+
+# Force regeneration of subtasks for tasks that already have them
+task-master expand --all --force
+
+# Research-backed subtask generation for a specific task
+task-master expand --id=<id> --research
+
+# Research-backed generation for all tasks
+task-master expand --all --research
+```
+
+## Clear Subtasks
+
+```bash
+# Clear subtasks from a specific task
+task-master clear-subtasks --id=<id>
+
+# Clear subtasks from multiple tasks
+task-master clear-subtasks --id=1,2,3
+
+# Clear subtasks from all tasks
+task-master clear-subtasks --all
+```
+
+## Analyze Task Complexity
+
+```bash
+# Analyze complexity of all tasks
+task-master analyze-complexity
+
+# Save report to a custom location
+task-master analyze-complexity --output=my-report.json
+
+# Use a specific LLM model
+task-master analyze-complexity --model=claude-3-opus-20240229
+
+# Set a custom complexity threshold (1-10)
+task-master analyze-complexity --threshold=6
+
+# Use an alternative tasks file
+task-master analyze-complexity --file=custom-tasks.json
+
+# Use Perplexity AI for research-backed complexity analysis
+task-master analyze-complexity --research
+```
+
+## View Complexity Report
+
+```bash
+# Display the task complexity analysis report
+task-master complexity-report
+
+# View a report at a custom location
+task-master complexity-report --file=my-report.json
+```
+
+## Managing Task Dependencies
+
+```bash
+# Add a dependency to a task
+task-master add-dependency --id=<id> --depends-on=<id>
+
+# Remove a dependency from a task
+task-master remove-dependency --id=<id> --depends-on=<id>
+
+# Validate dependencies without fixing them
+task-master validate-dependencies
+
+# Find and fix invalid dependencies automatically
+task-master fix-dependencies
+```
+
+## Add a New Task
+
+```bash
+# Add a new task using AI
+task-master add-task --prompt="Description of the new task"
+
+# Add a task with dependencies
+task-master add-task --prompt="Description" --dependencies=1,2,3

+# Task Structure
+
+Tasks in Task Master follow a specific format designed to provide comprehensive information for both humans and AI assistants.
+
+## Task Fields in tasks.json
+
+Tasks in tasks.json have the following structure:
+
+- `id`: Unique identifier for the task (Example: `1`)
+- `title`: Brief, descriptive title of the task (Example: `"Initialize Repo"`)
+- `description`: Concise description 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 tasks that must be completed before this task (Example: `[1, 2]`)
+  - Dependencies are displayed with status indicators (✅ for completed, ⏱️ for pending)
+  - This helps quickly identify which prerequisite tasks are blocking work
+- `priority`: Importance level of the task (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 that make up the main task (Example: `[{"id": 1, "title": "Configure OAuth", ...}]`)
+
+## Task File Format
+
+Individual task files follow this format:
+
+```
+# Task ID: <id>
+# Title: <title>
+# Status: <status>
+# Dependencies: <comma-separated list of dependency IDs>
+# Priority: <priority>
+# Description: <brief description>
+# Details:
+<detailed implementation notes>
+
+# Test Strategy:

+
+## Features in Detail
+
+### Analyzing Task Complexity
+
+The `analyze-complexity` command:
+
+- Analyzes each task using AI to assess its complexity on a scale of 1-10
+- Recommends optimal number of subtasks based on configured DEFAULT_SUBTASKS
+- Generates tailored prompts for expanding each task
+- Creates a comprehensive JSON report with ready-to-use commands
+- Saves the report to scripts/task-complexity-report.json by default
+
+The generated report contains:
+
+- Complexity analysis for each task (scored 1-10)
+- Recommended number of subtasks based on complexity
+- AI-generated expansion prompts customized for each task
+- Ready-to-run expansion commands directly within each task analysis
+
+### Viewing Complexity Report
+
+The `complexity-report` command:
+
+- Displays a formatted, easy-to-read version of the complexity analysis report
+- Shows tasks organized by complexity score (highest to lowest)
+- Provides complexity distribution statistics (low, medium, high)
+- Highlights tasks recommended for expansion based on threshold score
+- Includes ready-to-use expansion commands for each complex task
+- If no report exists, offers to generate one on the spot
+
+### Smart Task Expansion
+
+The `expand` command automatically checks for and uses the complexity report:
+
+When a complexity report exists:
+
+- Tasks are automatically expanded using the recommended subtask count and prompts
+- When expanding all tasks, they're processed in order of complexity (highest first)
+- Research-backed generation is preserved from the complexity analysis
+- You can still override recommendations with explicit command-line options
+
+Example workflow:
+
+```bash
+# Generate the complexity analysis report with research capabilities
+task-master analyze-complexity --research
+
+# Review the report in a readable format
+task-master complexity-report
+
+# Expand tasks using the optimized recommendations
+task-master expand --id=8
+# or expand all tasks
+task-master expand --all
+```
+
+### Finding the Next Task
+
+The `next` command:
+
+- Identifies tasks that are pending/in-progress and have all dependencies satisfied
+- Prioritizes tasks by priority level, dependency count, and task ID
+- Displays comprehensive information about the selected task:
+  - Basic task details (ID, title, priority, dependencies)
+  - Implementation details
+  - Subtasks (if they exist)
+- Provides contextual suggested actions:
+  - Command to mark the task as in-progress
+  - Command to mark the task as done
+  - Commands for working with subtasks
+
+### Viewing Specific Task Details
+
+The `show` command:
+
+- Displays comprehensive details about a specific task or subtask
+- Shows task status, priority, dependencies, and detailed implementation notes
+- For parent tasks, displays all subtasks and their status
+- For subtasks, shows parent task relationship
+- Provides contextual action suggestions based on the task's state
+- Works with both regular tasks and subtasks (using the format taskId.subtaskId)
+
+## Best Practices for AI-Driven Development
+
+1. **Start with a detailed PRD**: The more detailed your PRD, the better the generated tasks will be.
+
+2. **Review generated tasks**: After parsing the PRD, review the tasks to ensure they make sense and have appropriate dependencies.
+
+3. **Analyze task complexity**: Use the complexity analysis feature to identify which tasks should be broken down further.
+
+4. **Follow the dependency chain**: Always respect task dependencies - the Cursor agent will help with this.
+
+5. **Update as you go**: If your implementation diverges from the plan, use the update command to keep future tasks aligned with your current approach.
+
+6. **Break down complex tasks**: Use the expand command to break down complex tasks into manageable subtasks.
+
+7. **Regenerate task files**: After any updates to tasks.json, regenerate the task files to keep them in sync.
+
+8. **Communicate context to the agent**: When asking the Cursor agent to help with a task, provide context about what you're trying to achieve.
+
+9. **Validate dependencies**: Periodically run the validate-dependencies command to check for invalid or circular dependencies.

+# Task Master Tutorial
+
+This tutorial will guide you through setting up and using Task Master for AI-driven development.
+
+## Initial Setup
+
+There are two ways to set up Task Master: using MCP (recommended) or via npm installation.
+
+### Option 1: Using MCP (Recommended)
+
+MCP (Model Control Protocol) provides the easiest way to get started with Task Master directly in your editor.
+
+1. **Add the MCP config to your editor** (Cursor recommended, but it works with other text editors):
+
+```json
+{
+	"mcpServers": {
+		"taskmaster-ai": {
+			"command": "npx",
+			"args": ["-y", "task-master-ai", "mcp-server"],
+			"env": {
+				"ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "YOUR_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY_HERE",
+				"PERPLEXITY_API_KEY": "YOUR_PERPLEXITY_API_KEY_HERE",
+				"MODEL": "claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219",
+				"PERPLEXITY_MODEL": "sonar-pro",
+				"MAX_TOKENS": 128000,
+				"TEMPERATURE": 0.2,
+				"DEFAULT_SUBTASKS": 5,
+				"DEFAULT_PRIORITY": "medium"
+			}
+		}
+	}
+}
+```
+
+2. **Enable the MCP** in your editor settings
+
+3. **Prompt the AI** to initialize Task Master:
+
+```
+Can you please initialize taskmaster-ai into my project?
+```
+
+The AI will:
+
+- Create necessary project structure
+- Set up initial configuration files
+- Guide you through the rest of the process
+
+4. Place your PRD document in the `scripts/` directory (e.g., `scripts/prd.txt`)
+
+5. **Use natural language commands** to interact with Task Master:
+
+```
+Can you parse my PRD at scripts/prd.txt?
+What's the next task I should work on?
+Can you help me implement task 3?
+```
+
+### Option 2: Manual Installation
+
+If you prefer to use the command line interface directly:
+
+```bash
+# Install globally
+npm install -g task-master-ai
+
+# OR install locally within your project
+npm install task-master-ai
+```
+
+Initialize a new project:
+
+```bash
+# If installed globally
+task-master init
+
+# If installed locally
+npx task-master-init
+```
+
+This will prompt you for project details and set up a new project with the necessary files and structure.
+
+## Common Commands
+
+After setting up Task Master, you can use these commands (either via AI prompts or CLI):
+
+```bash
+# Parse a PRD and generate tasks
+task-master parse-prd your-prd.txt
+
+# List all tasks
+task-master list
+
+# Show the next task to work on
+task-master next
+
+# Generate task files
+task-master generate
+```
+
+## Setting up Cursor AI Integration
+
+Task Master is designed to work seamlessly with [Cursor AI](https://www.cursor.so/), providing a structured workflow for AI-driven development.
+
+### Using Cursor with MCP (Recommended)
+
+If you've already set up Task Master with MCP in Cursor, the integration is automatic. You can simply use natural language to interact with Task Master:
+
+```
+What tasks are available to work on next?
+Can you analyze the complexity of our tasks?
+I'd like to implement task 4. What does it involve?
+```
+
+### Manual Cursor Setup
+
+If you're not using MCP, you can still set up Cursor integration:
+
+1. After initializing your project, open it in Cursor
+2. The `.cursor/rules/dev_workflow.mdc` file is automatically loaded by Cursor, providing the AI with knowledge about the task management system
+3. Place your PRD document in the `scripts/` directory (e.g., `scripts/prd.txt`)
+4. Open Cursor's AI chat and switch to Agent mode
+
+### Alternative MCP Setup in Cursor
+
+You can also set up the MCP server in Cursor settings:
+
+1. Go to Cursor settings
+2. Navigate to the MCP section
+3. Click on "Add New MCP Server"
+4. Configure with the following details:
+   - Name: "Task Master"
+   - Type: "Command"
+   - Command: "npx -y --package task-master-ai task-master-mcp"
+5. Save the settings
+
+Once configured, you can interact with Task Master's task management commands directly through Cursor's interface, providing a more integrated experience.
+
+## Initial Task Generation
+
+In Cursor's AI chat, instruct the agent to generate tasks from your PRD:
+
+```
+Please use the task-master parse-prd command to generate tasks from my PRD. The PRD is located at scripts/prd.txt.
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master parse-prd scripts/prd.txt
+```
+
+This will:
+
+- Parse your PRD document
+- Generate a structured `tasks.json` file with tasks, dependencies, priorities, and test strategies
+- The agent will understand this process due to the Cursor rules
+
+### Generate Individual Task Files
+
+Next, ask the agent to generate individual task files:
+
+```
+Please generate individual task files from tasks.json
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master generate
+```
+
+This creates individual task files in the `tasks/` directory (e.g., `task_001.txt`, `task_002.txt`), making it easier to reference specific tasks.
+
+## AI-Driven Development Workflow
+
+The Cursor agent is pre-configured (via the rules file) to follow this workflow:
+
+### 1. Task Discovery and Selection
+
+Ask the agent to list available tasks:
+
+```
+What tasks are available to work on next?
+```
+
+The agent will:
+
+- Run `task-master list` to see all tasks
+- Run `task-master next` to determine the next task to work on
+- Analyze dependencies to determine which tasks are ready to be worked on
+- Prioritize tasks based on priority level and ID order
+- Suggest the next task(s) to implement
+
+### 2. Task Implementation
+
+When implementing a task, the agent will:
+
+- Reference the task's details section for implementation specifics
+- Consider dependencies on previous tasks
+- Follow the project's coding standards
+- Create appropriate tests based on the task's testStrategy
+
+You can ask:
+
+```
+Let's implement task 3. What does it involve?
+```
+
+### 3. Task Verification
+
+Before marking a task as complete, verify it according to:
+
+- The task's specified testStrategy
+- Any automated tests in the codebase
+- Manual verification if required
+
+### 4. Task Completion
+
+When a task is completed, tell the agent:
+
+```
+Task 3 is now complete. Please update its status.
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master set-status --id=3 --status=done
+```
+
+### 5. Handling Implementation Drift
+
+If during implementation, you discover that:
+
+- The current approach differs significantly from what was planned
+- Future tasks need to be modified due to current implementation choices
+- New dependencies or requirements have emerged
+
+Tell the agent:
+
+```
+We've changed our approach. We're now using Express instead of Fastify. Please update all future tasks to reflect this change.
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master update --from=4 --prompt="Now we are using Express instead of Fastify."
+```
+
+This will rewrite or re-scope subsequent tasks in tasks.json while preserving completed work.
+
+### 6. Breaking Down Complex Tasks
+
+For complex tasks that need more granularity:
+
+```
+Task 5 seems complex. Can you break it down into subtasks?
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master expand --id=5 --num=3
+```
+
+You can provide additional context:
+
+```
+Please break down task 5 with a focus on security considerations.
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master expand --id=5 --prompt="Focus on security aspects"
+```
+
+You can also expand all pending tasks:
+
+```
+Please break down all pending tasks into subtasks.
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master expand --all
+```
+
+For research-backed subtask generation using Perplexity AI:
+
+```
+Please break down task 5 using research-backed generation.
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master expand --id=5 --research
+```
+
+## Example Cursor AI Interactions
+
+### Starting a new project
+
+```
+I've just initialized a new project with Claude Task Master. I have a PRD at scripts/prd.txt.
+Can you help me parse it and set up the initial tasks?
+```
+
+### Working on tasks
+
+```
+What's the next task I should work on? Please consider dependencies and priorities.
+```
+
+### Implementing a specific task
+
+```
+I'd like to implement task 4. Can you help me understand what needs to be done and how to approach it?
+```
+
+### Managing subtasks
+
+```
+I need to regenerate the subtasks for task 3 with a different approach. Can you help me clear and regenerate them?
+```
+
+### Handling changes
+
+```
+We've decided to use MongoDB instead of PostgreSQL. Can you update all future tasks to reflect this change?
+```
+
+### Completing work
+
+```
+I've finished implementing the authentication system described in task 2. All tests are passing.
+Please mark it as complete and tell me what I should work on next.
+```
+
+### Analyzing complexity
+
+```
+Can you analyze the complexity of our tasks to help me understand which ones need to be broken down further?
+```
+
+### Viewing complexity report
+
+```
+Can you show me the complexity report in a more readable format?
+```
