Adjusts default main model model to Claude Sonnet 4. Adjusts default fallback to Claude Sonney 3.7

Adds a new CLI command and MCP tool to reorganize tasks and subtasks within the hierarchy. Features include:
- Moving tasks between different positions in the task list
- Converting tasks to subtasks and vice versa
- Moving subtasks between parents
- Moving multiple tasks at once with comma-separated IDs
- Creating placeholder tasks when moving to new IDs
- Validation to prevent accidental data loss

This is particularly useful for resolving merge conflicts when multiple team members create tasks on different branches.

-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.

-    - 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.

-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.

+Add move command to enable moving tasks and subtasks within the task hierarchy. This new command supports moving standalone tasks to become subtasks, subtasks to become standalone tasks, and moving subtasks between different parents. The implementation handles circular dependencies, validation, and proper updating of parent-child relationships.
+
+**Usage:**
+- CLI command: `task-master move --from=<id> --to=<id>`
+- MCP tool: `move_task` with parameters:
+  - `from`: ID of task/subtask to move (e.g., "5" or "5.2")
+  - `to`: ID of destination (e.g., "7" or "7.3")
+  - `file` (optional): Custom path to tasks.json
+
+**Example scenarios:**
+- Move task to become subtask: `--from="5" --to="7"`
+- Move subtask to standalone task: `--from="5.2" --to="7"`
+- Move subtask to different parent: `--from="5.2" --to="7.3"`
+- Reorder subtask within same parent: `--from="5.2" --to="5.4"`
+- Move multiple tasks at once: `--from="10,11,12" --to="16,17,18"`
+- Move task to new ID: `--from="5" --to="25"` (creates a new task with ID 25)
+
+**Multiple Task Support:**
+The command supports moving multiple tasks simultaneously by providing comma-separated lists for both `--from` and `--to` parameters. The number of source and destination IDs must match. This is particularly useful for resolving merge conflicts in task files when multiple team members have created tasks on different branches.
+
+**Validation Features:**
+- Allows moving tasks to new, non-existent IDs (automatically creates placeholders)
+- Prevents moving to existing task IDs that already contain content (to avoid overwriting)
+- Validates source tasks exist before attempting to move them
+- Ensures proper parent-child relationships are maintained

+# AI Usage Telemetry Integration
+
+This document outlines the standard pattern for capturing, propagating, and handling AI usage telemetry data (cost, tokens, model, etc.) across the Task Master stack. This ensures consistent telemetry for both CLI and MCP interactions.
+
+## Overview
+
+Telemetry data is generated within the unified AI service layer ([`ai-services-unified.js`](mdc:scripts/modules/ai-services-unified.js)) and then passed upwards through the calling functions.
+
+- **Data Source**: [`ai-services-unified.js`](mdc:scripts/modules/ai-services-unified.js) (specifically its `generateTextService`, `generateObjectService`, etc.) returns an object like `{ mainResult: AI_CALL_OUTPUT, telemetryData: TELEMETRY_OBJECT }`.
+- **`telemetryData` Object Structure**:
+  ```json
+  {
+    "timestamp": "ISO_STRING_DATE",
+    "userId": "USER_ID_FROM_CONFIG",
+    "commandName": "invoking_command_or_tool_name",
+    "modelUsed": "ai_model_id",
+    "providerName": "ai_provider_name",
+    "inputTokens": NUMBER,
+    "outputTokens": NUMBER,
+    "totalTokens": NUMBER,
+    "totalCost": NUMBER, // e.g., 0.012414
+    "currency": "USD" // e.g., "USD"
+  }
+  ```
+
+## Integration Pattern by Layer
+
+The key principle is that each layer receives telemetry data from the layer below it (if applicable) and passes it to the layer above it, or handles it for display in the case of the CLI.
+
+### 1. Core Logic Functions (e.g., in `scripts/modules/task-manager/`)
+
+Functions in this layer that invoke AI services are responsible for handling the `telemetryData` they receive from [`ai-services-unified.js`](mdc:scripts/modules/ai-services-unified.js).
+
+- **Actions**:
+    1.  Call the appropriate AI service function (e.g., `generateObjectService`).
+        -   Pass `commandName` (e.g., `add-task`, `expand-task`) and `outputType` (e.g., `cli` or `mcp`) in the `params` object to the AI service. The `outputType` can be derived from context (e.g., presence of `mcpLog`).
+    2.  The AI service returns an object, e.g., `aiServiceResponse = { mainResult: {/*AI output*/}, telemetryData: {/*telemetry data*/} }`.
+    3.  Extract `aiServiceResponse.mainResult` for the core processing.
+    4.  **Must return an object that includes `aiServiceResponse.telemetryData`**.
+        Example: `return { operationSpecificData: /*...*/, telemetryData: aiServiceResponse.telemetryData };`
+
+- **CLI Output Handling (If Applicable)**:
+    -   If the core function also handles CLI output (e.g., it has an `outputFormat` parameter that can be `'text'` or `'cli'`):
+        1.  Check if `outputFormat === 'text'` (or `'cli'`).
+        2.  If so, and if `aiServiceResponse.telemetryData` is available, call `displayAiUsageSummary(aiServiceResponse.telemetryData, 'cli')` from [`scripts/modules/ui.js`](mdc:scripts/modules/ui.js).
+        - This ensures telemetry is displayed directly to CLI users after the main command output.
+
+- **Example Snippet (Core Logic in `scripts/modules/task-manager/someAiAction.js`)**:
+  ```javascript
+  import { generateObjectService } from '../ai-services-unified.js';
+  import { displayAiUsageSummary } from '../ui.js';
+
+  async function performAiRelatedAction(params, context, outputFormat = 'text') {
+    const { commandNameFromContext, /* other context vars */ } = context;
+    let aiServiceResponse = null;
+
+    try {
+      aiServiceResponse = await generateObjectService({
+        // ... other parameters for AI service ...
+        commandName: commandNameFromContext || 'default-action-name',
+        outputType: context.mcpLog ? 'mcp' : 'cli' // Derive outputType
+      });
+
+      const usefulAiOutput = aiServiceResponse.mainResult.object;
+      // ... do work with usefulAiOutput ...
+
+      if (outputFormat === 'text' && aiServiceResponse.telemetryData) {
+        displayAiUsageSummary(aiServiceResponse.telemetryData, 'cli');
+      }
+
+      return {
+        actionData: /* results of processing */,
+        telemetryData: aiServiceResponse.telemetryData
+      };
+    } catch (error) {
+      // ... handle error ...
+      throw error;
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+### 2. Direct Function Wrappers (in `mcp-server/src/core/direct-functions/`)
+
+These functions adapt core logic for the MCP server, ensuring structured responses.
+
+- **Actions**:
+    1.  Call the corresponding core logic function.
+        -   Pass necessary context (e.g., `session`, `mcpLog`, `projectRoot`).
+        -   Provide the `commandName` (typically derived from the MCP tool name) and `outputType: 'mcp'` in the context object passed to the core function.
+        -   If the core function supports an `outputFormat` parameter, pass `'json'` to suppress CLI-specific UI.
+    2.  The core logic function returns an object (e.g., `coreResult = { actionData: ..., telemetryData: ... }`).
+    3.  Include `coreResult.telemetryData` as a field within the `data` object of the successful response returned by the direct function.
+
+- **Example Snippet (Direct Function `someAiActionDirect.js`)**:
+  ```javascript
+  import { performAiRelatedAction } from '../../../../scripts/modules/task-manager/someAiAction.js'; // Core function
+  import { createLogWrapper } from '../../tools/utils.js'; // MCP Log wrapper
+
+  export async function someAiActionDirect(args, log, context = {}) {
+    const { session } = context;
+    // ... prepare arguments for core function from args, including args.projectRoot ...
+
+    try {
+      const coreResult = await performAiRelatedAction(
+        { /* parameters for core function */ },
+        { // Context for core function
+          session,
+          mcpLog: createLogWrapper(log),
+          projectRoot: args.projectRoot,
+          commandNameFromContext: 'mcp_tool_some_ai_action', // Example command name
+          outputType: 'mcp'
+        },
+        'json' // Request 'json' output format from core function
+      );
+
+      return {
+        success: true,
+        data: {
+          operationSpecificData: coreResult.actionData,
+          telemetryData: coreResult.telemetryData // Pass telemetry through
+        }
+      };
+    } catch (error) {
+      // ... error handling, return { success: false, error: ... } ...
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+### 3. MCP Tools (in `mcp-server/src/tools/`)
+
+These are the exposed endpoints for MCP clients.
+
+- **Actions**:
+    1.  Call the corresponding direct function wrapper.
+    2.  The direct function returns an object structured like `{ success: true, data: { operationSpecificData: ..., telemetryData: ... } }` (or an error object).
+    3.  Pass this entire result object to `handleApiResult(result, log)` from [`mcp-server/src/tools/utils.js`](mdc:mcp-server/src/tools/utils.js).
+    4.  `handleApiResult` ensures that the `data` field from the direct function's response (which correctly includes `telemetryData`) is part of the final MCP response.
+
+- **Example Snippet (MCP Tool `some_ai_action.js`)**:
+  ```javascript
+  import { someAiActionDirect } from '../core/task-master-core.js';
+  import { handleApiResult, withNormalizedProjectRoot } from './utils.js';
+  // ... zod for parameters ...
+
+  export function registerSomeAiActionTool(server) {
+    server.addTool({
+      name: "some_ai_action",
+      // ... description, parameters ...
+      execute: withNormalizedProjectRoot(async (args, { log, session }) => {
+        try {
+          const resultFromDirectFunction = await someAiActionDirect(
+            { /* args including projectRoot */ },
+            log,
+            { session }
+          );
+          return handleApiResult(resultFromDirectFunction, log); // This passes the nested telemetryData through
+        } catch (error) {
+          // ... error handling ...
+        }
+      })
+    });
+  }
+  ```
+
+### 4. CLI Commands (`scripts/modules/commands.js`)
+
+These define the command-line interface.
+
+- **Actions**:
+    1.  Call the appropriate core logic function.
+    2.  Pass `outputFormat: 'text'` (or ensure the core function defaults to text-based output for CLI).
+    3.  The core logic function (as per Section 1) is responsible for calling `displayAiUsageSummary` if telemetry data is available and it's in CLI mode.
+    4.  The command action itself **should not** call `displayAiUsageSummary` if the core logic function already handles this. This avoids duplicate display.
+
+- **Example Snippet (CLI Command in `commands.js`)**:
+  ```javascript
+  // In scripts/modules/commands.js
+  import { performAiRelatedAction } from './task-manager/someAiAction.js'; // Core function
+
+  programInstance
+    .command('some-cli-ai-action')
+    // ... .option() ...
+    .action(async (options) => {
+      try {
+        const projectRoot = findProjectRoot() || '.'; // Example root finding
+        // ... prepare parameters for core function from command options ...
+        await performAiRelatedAction(
+          { /* parameters for core function */ },
+          { // Context for core function
+            projectRoot,
+            commandNameFromContext: 'some-cli-ai-action',
+            outputType: 'cli'
+          },
+          'text' // Explicitly request text output format for CLI
+        );
+        // Core function handles displayAiUsageSummary internally for 'text' outputFormat
+      } catch (error) {
+        // ... error handling ...
+      }
+    });
+  ```
+
+## Summary Flow
+
+The telemetry data flows as follows:
+
+1.  **[`ai-services-unified.js`](mdc:scripts/modules/ai-services-unified.js)**: Generates `telemetryData` and returns `{ mainResult, telemetryData }`.
+2.  **Core Logic Function**:
+    *   Receives `{ mainResult, telemetryData }`.
+    *   Uses `mainResult`.
+    *   If CLI (`outputFormat: 'text'`), calls `displayAiUsageSummary(telemetryData)`.
+    *   Returns `{ operationSpecificData, telemetryData }`.
+3.  **Direct Function Wrapper**:
+    *   Receives `{ operationSpecificData, telemetryData }` from core logic.
+    *   Returns `{ success: true, data: { operationSpecificData, telemetryData } }`.
+4.  **MCP Tool**:
+    *   Receives direct function response.
+    *   `handleApiResult` ensures the final MCP response to the client is `{ success: true, data: { operationSpecificData, telemetryData } }`.
+5.  **CLI Command**:
+    *   Calls core logic with `outputFormat: 'text'`. Display is handled by core logic.
+
+This pattern ensures telemetry is captured and appropriately handled/exposed across all interaction modes.

+- [#536](https://github.com/eyaltoledano/claude-task-master/pull/536) [`f4a83ec`](https://github.com/eyaltoledano/claude-task-master/commit/f4a83ec047b057196833e3a9b861d4bceaec805d) Thanks [@Crunchyman-ralph](https://github.com/Crunchyman-ralph)! - Add Ollama as a supported AI provider.
+
+  - You can now add it by running `task-master models --setup` and selecting it.
+  - Ollama is a local model provider, so no API key is required.
+  - Ollama models are available at `http://localhost:11434/api` by default.
+  - You can change the default URL by setting the `OLLAMA_BASE_URL` environment variable or by adding a `baseUrl` property to the `ollama` model role in `.taskmasterconfig`.
+    - If you want to use a custom API key, you can set it in the `OLLAMA_API_KEY` environment variable.

+
+  - 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.

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.

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.

 ## Requirements
 
+Taskmaster utilizes AI across several commands, and those require a separate API key. You can use a variety of models from different AI providers provided you add your API keys. For example, if you want to use Claude 3.7, you'll need an Anthropic API key.
+
+You can define 3 types of models to be used: the main model, the research model, and the fallback model (in case either the main or research fail). Whatever model you use, its provider API key must be present in either mcp.json or .env.
+
+At least one (1) of the following is required:
+
 - Anthropic API key (Claude API)
-- OpenAI SDK (for Perplexity API integration, optional)
+- OpenAI API key
+- Google Gemini API key
+- Perplexity API key (for research model)
+- xAI API Key (for research or main model)
+- OpenRouter API Key (for research or main model)
+
+Using the research model is optional but highly recommended. You will need at least ONE API key. Adding all API keys enables you to seamlessly switch between model providers at will.

+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", "--package=task-master-ai", "task-master-ai"],

+
+## 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 scripts/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 `.taskmasterconfig` - 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
+

+We want to refine how Task Master handles AI model token limits to be more precise, by:
+
+1.  Distinguishing between `maxInputTokens` and `maxOutputTokens` in the configuration.
+2.  Dynamically adjusting the `maxOutputTokens` for an API call based on the actual prompt length to stay within the model's total context window (or respecting separate input/output limits if the API and model support that).
+3.  Ensuring that `ai-services-unified.js` uses these more granular limits.
+
+This is a good improvement for both cost control and preventing errors.
+
+Here's a plan:
+
+**Phase 1: Configuration and Core Logic Updates**
+
+1.  **Update `.taskmasterconfig` Structure:**
+    - I'll modify the `models` section in your `.taskmasterconfig`. For each role (`main`, `research`, `fallback`), `maxTokens` will be replaced with `maxInputTokens` and `maxOutputTokens`.
+      - We'll need to decide on reasonable default values for these new fields. We can look at the current `maxTokens` and the model's known limits to make an initial guess.
+2.  **Update `MODEL_MAP` in `ai-services-unified.js`:**
+    - This array already stores cost data. We need to ensure it also stores the _absolute_ maximum input and output tokens for each model listed (e.g., `model_max_input_tokens`, `model_max_output_tokens`). If these fields are not present, they will need to be added. The values in `.taskmasterconfig` will then represent user-defined operational limits, which should ideally be validated against these absolute maximums.
+3.  **Update `config-manager.js`:**
+    - Getter functions like `getParametersForRole` will be updated to fetch `maxInputTokens` and `maxOutputTokens` instead of the singular `maxTokens`.
+    - New getters might be needed if we want to access the model's absolute limits directly from `MODEL_MAP` via `config-manager.js`.
+4.  **Update `ai-services-unified.js` (`_unifiedServiceRunner`):**
+    - **Token Counting:** This is a crucial step. Before an API call, we need to estimate the token count of the combined `systemPrompt` and `userPrompt`.
+      - The Vercel AI SDK or the individual provider SDKs might offer utilities for this. For example, some SDKs expose a `tokenizer` or a way to count tokens for a given string.
+      - If a direct utility isn't available through the Vercel SDK for the specific provider, we might need to use a library like `tiktoken` for OpenAI/Anthropic models or investigate provider-specific tokenization. This could be complex as tokenization varies between models.
+      - For now, let's assume we can get a reasonable estimate.
+    - **Dynamic Output Token Calculation & Validation:**
+      - Retrieve `configured_max_input_tokens` and `configured_max_output_tokens` from `config-manager.js` for the current role.
+      - Retrieve `model_absolute_max_input_tokens` and `model_absolute_max_output_tokens` from `MODEL_MAP`.
+      - Let `prompt_tokens = countTokens(systemPrompt + userPrompt)`.
+      - **Input Validation:** If `prompt_tokens > configured_max_input_tokens` OR `prompt_tokens > model_absolute_max_input_tokens`, throw an error. (We might also consider auto-truncation strategies in the future, but an error is safer to start).
+      - **Output Calculation:** The `max_tokens` parameter sent to the API (which typically refers to the _max number of tokens to generate_) should be `configured_max_output_tokens`. We also need to ensure this doesn't violate the model's absolute output limit.
+      - Some models have a _total_ context window (input + output). If this is the case for a model, the `max_tokens` parameter for the API call might need to be `min(configured_max_output_tokens, model_absolute_total_tokens - prompt_tokens)`. However, many modern APIs handle separate input and output limits, simplifying this. We'll aim to pass `configured_max_output_tokens` as the API's `max_tokens` parameter, assuming the input validation has passed.
+    - **API Call Parameter:** Update the `callParams` to use the correctly determined `max_tokens` for generation (which will be our `configured_max_output_tokens`).
+
+**Phase 2: Error Handling and Refinements**
+
+1.  **Enhanced Error Handling:** Provide clear error messages if prompt tokens exceed input limits, or if API calls fail due to token issues despite our calculations.
+2.  **Validation:** Add validation (perhaps in `config-manager.js` or when `task-master models --setup` is run) to ensure `configured_max_input_tokens` and `configured_max_output_tokens` in `.taskmasterconfig` do not exceed the `model_absolute_max_input_tokens` and `model_absolute_max_output_tokens` from `MODEL_MAP`.
+
+Let's start by inspecting `scripts/modules/config-manager.js` to see how parameters and `MODEL_MAP` are currently handled. This will inform the changes needed for `.taskmasterconfig` and `ai-services-unified.js`.
+
+I will now read `scripts/modules/config-manager.js`.
+
+Okay, I've reviewed `scripts/modules/config-manager.js`. Here's what I've gathered and how it impacts the plan:
+
+- **`MODEL_MAP` Source:** `MODEL_MAP` is loaded from `supported-models.json`. This is excellent, as it means we can update the model capabilities (including new token limits) in a structured JSON file.
+- **Configuration Loading:** `_loadAndValidateConfig` handles loading `.taskmasterconfig` and merging it with `DEFAULTS`.
+- **Getters:** There are specific getters for `maxTokens` for each role (e.g., `getMainMaxTokens`). We will need to update these.
+- **`getParametersForRole`:** This function already exists and is a good candidate for returning the new `maxInputTokens` and `maxOutputTokens`.
+
+Here's the refined plan:
+
+**Phase 1: Configuration and Data Structures**
+
+1.  **Update `supported-models.json`:**
+
+    - For each model entry in `supported-models.json`, we need to add `maxInputTokens` and `maxOutputTokens` fields. These should reflect the _absolute maximums_ for that specific model.
+    - Example entry change:
+
+      ```json
+      // Before
+      {
+          "id": "claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219",
+          "name": "Claude 3.7 Sonnet (Preview)",
+          "context_window": 200000, // This might be total context
+          "cost_per_1m_tokens": { "input": 3, "output": 15, "currency": "USD" }
+      }
+
+      // After (assuming 200k is total, and we make a reasonable split or find official numbers)
+      {
+          "id": "claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219",
+          "name": "Claude 3.7 Sonnet (Preview)",
+          "maxInputTokens": 190000, // Example
+          "maxOutputTokens": 8192,  // Example, often smaller for generation
+          "cost_per_1m_tokens": { "input": 3, "output": 15, "currency": "USD" }
+      }
+      ```
+
+    - I will need to find the official input/output token limits for the models currently in your `MODEL_MAP`. If you have this information handy, it would speed things up. Otherwise, I can make educated guesses or search for them.
+
+2.  **Update `.taskmasterconfig` (Defaults and User File):**
+    - In `scripts/modules/config-manager.js`, modify the `DEFAULTS` object. For each role (`main`, `research`, `fallback`), replace `maxTokens` with:
+      - `maxInputTokens`: A sensible default (e.g., a large portion of the model's capability, but user-configurable).
+      - `maxOutputTokens`: A sensible default for generation (e.g., 4096 or 8192).
+    - You will then need to manually update your existing `.taskmasterconfig` file to reflect this new structure. I can provide the snippet for you to paste.
+3.  **Update `config-manager.js`:**
+    - Modify `getParametersForRole(role, explicitRoot = null)`:
+      - It currently fetches `maxTokens` and `temperature`.
+      - Update it to fetch `maxInputTokens`, `maxOutputTokens`, and `temperature` from the loaded config for the given role.
+    - Remove the role-specific `getMaxTokens` functions (e.g., `getMainMaxTokens`, `getResearchMaxTokens`, `getFallbackMaxTokens`). The `getParametersForRole` will be the central way to get these.
+    - (Optional, for later validation) Consider adding a new function `getModelCapabilities(providerName, modelId)` that reads from `MODEL_MAP` to return the absolute `maxInputTokens` and `maxOutputTokens` for a given model. This would be useful for validating the user's settings in `.taskmasterconfig`.
+
+**Phase 2: Core Logic in `ai-services-unified.js`**
+
+1.  **Token Counting (`_unifiedServiceRunner`):**
+
+    - This is the most complex part. We need a reliable way to count tokens for the prompts.
+      - **Strategy 1 (Ideal):** Leverage Vercel AI SDK. The SDK might provide a way to get a tokenizer for the active model or a utility function. We'll need to investigate its capabilities.
+      - **Strategy 2 (Fallback):** Use a library like `tiktoken` for models compatible with OpenAI's tokenization (many are, including some Anthropic models). For other models, we might need provider-specific tokenizers or make estimations (less ideal).
+      - **Initial Approach:** Let's try to find a Vercel AI SDK utility first. If not, we'll start with `tiktoken` as a common case and acknowledge that other models might need specific handling later.
+    - The function `_unifiedServiceRunner` will call this token counting utility:
+
+      ```javascript
+      // Placeholder for token counting
+      function countTokens(text, modelId /* or providerName */) {
+      	// ... implementation using SDK or library ...
+      	// This is a simplification; actual tokenization is model-specific.
+      	// For now, a rough estimate might be (text.length / 4) as a placeholder
+      	// if a proper tokenizer isn't immediately available.
+      	if (!text) return 0;
+      	return Math.ceil(text.length / 3.5); // Very rough general estimate
+      }
+
+      const promptTokens = countTokens(systemPrompt) + countTokens(prompt);
+      ```
+
+2.  **Dynamic Output Token Calculation & Validation (`_unifiedServiceRunner`):**
+
+    - Fetch parameters using the updated `getParametersForRole` from `config-manager.js`:
+      ```javascript
+      const roleParams = getParametersForRole(
+      	currentRole,
+      	effectiveProjectRoot
+      );
+      // roleParams will now contain { maxInputTokens, maxOutputTokens, temperature }
+      ```
+    - Fetch model's absolute limits from `MODEL_MAP` (we'll need a helper in `config-manager.js` or do it directly in `ai-services-unified.js` for now):
+      ```javascript
+      // Simplified; ideally use a robust getter from config-manager
+      const modelInfo = MODEL_MAP[providerName?.toLowerCase()]?.find(
+      	(m) => m.id === modelId
+      );
+      const modelAbsoluteMaxInput = modelInfo?.maxInputTokens || Infinity;
+      const modelAbsoluteMaxOutput =
+      	modelInfo?.maxOutputTokens || roleParams.maxOutputTokens; // Fallback to configured if not in map
+      ```
+    - **Input Validation:**
+      ```javascript
+      if (promptTokens > roleParams.maxInputTokens) {
+      	throw new Error(
+      		`Prompt (${promptTokens} tokens) exceeds configured max input tokens (${roleParams.maxInputTokens}) for role '${currentRole}'.`
+      	);
+      }
+      if (promptTokens > modelAbsoluteMaxInput) {
+      	throw new Error(
+      		`Prompt (${promptTokens} tokens) exceeds model's absolute max input tokens (${modelAbsoluteMaxInput}) for ${modelId}.`
+      	);
+      }
+      ```
+    - **API Call Parameter (`max_tokens` for generation):**
+      The `max_tokens` parameter passed to the provider's API call should be `roleParams.maxOutputTokens`. We must also ensure this doesn't exceed the model's absolute output capability.
+
+      ```javascript
+      const apiMaxOutputTokens = Math.min(
+      	roleParams.maxOutputTokens,
+      	modelAbsoluteMaxOutput
+      );
+
+      const callParams = {
+      	apiKey,
+      	modelId,
+      	// Use apiMaxOutputTokens for the actual API call
+      	maxTokens: apiMaxOutputTokens, // This usually means max tokens to GENERATE
+      	temperature: roleParams.temperature,
+      	messages,
+      	baseUrl,
+      	...(serviceType === 'generateObject' && { schema, objectName }),
+      	...restApiParams
+      };
+      ```
+
+3.  **Update `logAiUsage`:**
+    - The cost calculation in `logAiUsage` seems correct as it already uses `inputCost` and `outputCost` per 1M tokens. This part should remain compatible.
+
+**Next Steps:**
+
+1.  **Modify `supported-models.json`:** I need the content of this file to propose the new `maxInputTokens` and `maxOutputTokens` fields. Please provide it.
+2.  **Decide on Tokenizer Strategy:** What are your thoughts on the token counting? Are you aware of any utilities within Vercel AI SDK for this, or should we plan to integrate `tiktoken` initially?
+
+Once I have the content of `supported-models.json`, I can draft the changes for it and then proceed to `config-manager.js` and `.taskmasterconfig`.
+
+```json
+        // Before
+        {
+            "id": "claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219",
+            "name": "Claude 3.7 Sonnet (Preview)",
+            "context_window": 200000, // This might be total context
+            "cost_per_1m_tokens": { "input": 3, "output": 15, "currency": "USD" }
+        }

+	// if a proper tokenizer isn't immediately available.
+	if (!text) return 0;
+	return Math.ceil(text.length / 3.5); // Very rough general estimate
+}
+
+const promptTokens = countTokens(systemPrompt) + countTokens(prompt);
+```
+
+```javascript
+const roleParams = getParametersForRole(currentRole, effectiveProjectRoot);
+// roleParams will now contain { maxInputTokens, maxOutputTokens, temperature }
+```
+
+```javascript
+// Simplified; ideally use a robust getter from config-manager
+const modelInfo = MODEL_MAP[providerName?.toLowerCase()]?.find(
+	(m) => m.id === modelId
+);
+const modelAbsoluteMaxInput = modelInfo?.maxInputTokens || Infinity;
+const modelAbsoluteMaxOutput =
+	modelInfo?.maxOutputTokens || roleParams.maxOutputTokens; // Fallback to configured if not in map
+```
+
+```javascript
+if (promptTokens > roleParams.maxInputTokens) {
+	throw new Error(
+		`Prompt (${promptTokens} tokens) exceeds configured max input tokens (${roleParams.maxInputTokens}) for role '${currentRole}'.`
+	);
+}
+if (promptTokens > modelAbsoluteMaxInput) {
+	throw new Error(
+		`Prompt (${promptTokens} tokens) exceeds model's absolute max input tokens (${modelAbsoluteMaxInput}) for ${modelId}.`
+	);
+}
+```
+
+```javascript
+const apiMaxOutputTokens = Math.min(
+	roleParams.maxOutputTokens,
+	modelAbsoluteMaxOutput
+);
+
+const callParams = {
+	apiKey,
+	modelId,
+	// Use apiMaxOutputTokens for the actual API call
+	maxTokens: apiMaxOutputTokens, // This usually means max tokens to GENERATE
+	temperature: roleParams.temperature,
+	messages,
+	baseUrl,
+	...(serviceType === 'generateObject' && { schema, objectName }),
+	...restApiParams
+};
+```
+
+Okay, I have the contents of `supported-models.json`.
+
+It seems many models have a `max_tokens` field, which I assume is the _total context window_. Some don't have it, and for others (like OpenAI `gpt-4o`), the listed `max_tokens` (16384) is known to be its _output_ token limit when using the Chat Completions API, while the context window is much larger (128k). This highlights the complexity: `max_tokens` in `supported-models.json` is used inconsistently.
+
+**Revised Plan for `supported-models.json` and Token Definitions:**
+
+To bring clarity, we'll introduce two new fields and ensure their meaning is consistent:
+
+- `contextWindowTokens`: The total number of tokens the model can process (input + output). This would replace the current ambiguous `max_tokens`.
+- `maxOutputTokens`: The maximum number of tokens the model can _generate_ in a single response. This is often smaller than the total context window, especially for larger models.
+
+If a model _only_ specifies a total context window, we'll have to make a reasonable assumption for `maxOutputTokens` (e.g., 4096 or 8192, or a fraction of the total context window). If it only specifies an output token limit (like some OpenAI models in certain API modes), we'll need to find its total context window.
+
+**Updated `supported-models.json` Structure (Example):**
+
+```json
+// For a model like Anthropic Claude 3.7 Sonnet (Preview)
+{
+    "id": "claude-3-7-sonnet-20250219",
+    "swe_score": 0.623,
+    "cost_per_1m_tokens": { "input": 3.0, "output": 15.0 },
+    "allowed_roles": ["main", "fallback"],
+    "contextWindowTokens": 200000, // From Anthropic's documentation
+    "maxOutputTokens": 8192     // Anthropic default, user can override in .taskmasterconfig
+}
+
+// For a model like OpenAI GPT-4o
+{
+    "id": "gpt-4o",
+    "swe_score": 0.332,
+    "cost_per_1m_tokens": { "input": 2.5, "output": 10.0 },
+    "allowed_roles": ["main", "fallback"],
+    "contextWindowTokens": 128000, // Official context window
+    "maxOutputTokens": 16384    // Max output for chat completions is 16k for gpt-4o (used to be 4k/8k for older gpt-4)
+                                // but the model card mentions 128k total. The API call parameter for `max_tokens` sets this output cap.
+}
+```
+
+I will proceed to generate the updated `supported-models.json` content. This will be a significant change. I will make my best effort to find the correct `contextWindowTokens` and `maxOutputTokens` for each model. If official numbers are ambiguous or not readily available, I'll use sensible defaults and add a comment.
+
+**Regarding Tokenizer Strategy:**
+
+- **Vercel AI SDK:** The `ai` package (Vercel AI SDK) itself is a lightweight wrapper. Tokenization is usually handled by the underlying provider-specific SDKs (e.g., `@anthropic-ai/sdk`, `openai`). The Vercel SDK doesn't provide a universal tokenizer.
+- **Provider SDKs:**
+  - `@anthropic-ai/sdk`: Does not expose a public tokenizer directly. Anthropic recommends counting based on their guidelines (roughly 3.5 chars/token for English).
+  - `openai` (for Node.js): The `gpt-3-encoder` or `tiktoken` libraries are commonly used. `tiktoken` is more current.
+- **`tiktoken`:** This is a good general-purpose library for OpenAI models and those that use compatible tokenization (many models fine-tuned from Llama, etc., might be close). It supports various encodings.
+- **Recommendation:**
+  1.  Start by integrating `tiktoken`. We can select the encoding based on the provider or even specific model if needed (e.g., `cl100k_base` for gpt-4, gpt-3.5-turbo, DALL-E models).
+  2.  For providers where `tiktoken` is not accurate (e.g., Google's Gemini, Perplexity if they have proprietary tokenizers), we might have to rely on character-based estimations (e.g., `length / N`) as a rougher guide or investigate if their specific SDKs offer token counting.
+  3.  The Vercel AI SDK's `experimental_streamObject` and other functions _might_ internally handle some aspects of token counting for request preparation, but we need explicit counting for our logic _before_ the call.
+
+For now, let's assume we'll add a `countTokens` utility that uses `tiktoken` for OpenAI and Anthropic (as Anthropic's guidance is character-based but `cl100k_base` is often a decent proxy for their tokenization for rough estimates, though not perfect), and a character-based fallback for others.
+
+I will now generate the proposed changes for `scripts/modules/supported-models.json`. This will be a large diff.
+
+After this, we'll move to:
+
+1.  Updating `.taskmasterconfig` defaults in `config-manager.js` and providing you the snippet for your user file.
+2.  Updating `config-manager.js` getters.
+3.  Implementing the logic in `ai-services-unified.js`.

+
+If you need to reorganize your task structure:

+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master move --from=5.2 --to=7.3
+```
+
+You can reorganize tasks in various ways:
+
+- Moving a standalone task to become a subtask: `--from=5 --to=7`
+- Moving a subtask to become a standalone task: `--from=5.2 --to=7`
+- Moving a subtask to a different parent: `--from=5.2 --to=7.3`
+- Reordering subtasks within the same parent: `--from=5.2 --to=5.4`
+- Moving a task to a new ID position: `--from=5 --to=25` (even if task 25 doesn't exist yet)
+- Moving multiple tasks at once: `--from=10,11,12 --to=16,17,18` (must have same number of IDs, Taskmaster will look through each position)
+
+When moving tasks to new IDs:
+
+- The system automatically creates placeholder tasks for non-existent destination IDs
+- This prevents accidental data loss during reorganization
+- Any tasks that depend on moved tasks will have their dependencies updated
+- When moving a parent task, all its subtasks are automatically moved with it and renumbered

+
+1. Keep your teammates' tasks (10-15)
+2. Move your tasks to new positions to avoid conflicts:
+
+```bash
+# Move your tasks to new positions (e.g., 16-18)
+task-master move --from=10 --to=16
+task-master move --from=11 --to=17
+task-master move --from=12 --to=18
+```
+
+This approach preserves everyone's work while maintaining a clean task structure, making it much easier to handle task conflicts than trying to manually merge JSON files.

+``# Taskmaster AI Installation Guide
+
+This guide helps AI assistants install and configure Taskmaster for users in their development projects.
+
+## What is Taskmaster?
+
+Taskmaster is an AI-driven task management system designed for development workflows. It helps break down projects into manageable tasks, track dependencies, and maintain development momentum through structured, AI-enhanced planning.
+
+## Installation Steps
+
+### Step 1: Add MCP Configuration
+
+Add the following configuration to the user's MCP settings file (`.cursor/mcp.json` for Cursor, or equivalent for other editors):
+
+```json
+{
+	"mcpServers": {
+		"taskmaster-ai": {
+			"command": "npx",
+			"args": ["-y", "--package=task-master-ai", "task-master-ai"],
+			"env": {
+				"ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "user_will_add_their_key_here",
+				"PERPLEXITY_API_KEY": "user_will_add_their_key_here",
+				"OPENAI_API_KEY": "user_will_add_their_key_here",
+				"GOOGLE_API_KEY": "user_will_add_their_key_here",
+				"MISTRAL_API_KEY": "user_will_add_their_key_here",
+				"OPENROUTER_API_KEY": "user_will_add_their_key_here",
+				"XAI_API_KEY": "user_will_add_their_key_here"
+			}
+		}
+	}
+}
+```
+
+### Step 2: API Key Requirements
+
+Inform the user they need **at least one** API key from the following providers:
+
+- **Anthropic** (for Claude models) - Recommended
+- **OpenAI** (for GPT models)
+- **Google** (for Gemini models)
+- **Perplexity** (for research features) - Highly recommended
+- **Mistral** (for Mistral models)
+- **OpenRouter** (access to multiple models)
+- **xAI** (for Grok models)
+
+The user will be able to define 3 separate roles (can be the same provider or separate providers) for main AI operations, research operations (research providers/models only), and a fallback model in case of errors.
+
+### Step 3: Initialize Project
+
+Once the MCP server is configured and API keys are added, initialize Taskmaster in the user's project:
+
+> Can you initialize Task Master in my project?
+
+This will run the `initialize_project` tool to set up the basic file structure.
+
+### Step 4: Create Initial Tasks
+
+Users have two options for creating initial tasks:
+
+**Option A: Parse a PRD (Recommended)**
+If they have a Product Requirements Document:
+
+> Can you parse my PRD file at [path/to/prd.txt] to generate initial tasks?
+
+If the user does not have a PRD, the AI agent can help them create one and store it in scripts/prd.txt for parsing.
+
+**Option B: Start from scratch**
+
+> Can you help me add my first task: [describe the task]
+
+## Common Usage Patterns
+
+### Daily Workflow
+
+> What's the next task I should work on?
+> Can you show me the details for task [ID]?
+> Can you mark task [ID] as done?
+
+### Task Management
+
+> Can you break down task [ID] into subtasks?
+> Can you add a new task: [description]
+> Can you analyze the complexity of my tasks?
+
+### Project Organization
+
+> Can you show me all my pending tasks?
+> Can you move task [ID] to become a subtask of [parent ID]?
+> Can you update task [ID] with this new information: [details]
+
+## Verification Steps
+
+After installation, verify everything is working:
+
+1. **Check MCP Connection**: The AI should be able to access Task Master tools
+2. **Test Basic Commands**: Try `get_tasks` to list current tasks
+3. **Verify API Keys**: Ensure AI-powered commands work (like `add_task`)
+
+Note: An API key fallback exists that allows the MCP server to read API keys from `.env` instead of the MCP JSON config. It is recommended to have keys in both places in case the MCP server is unable to read keys from its environment for whatever reason.
+
+When adding keys to `.env` only, the `models` tool will explain that the keys are not OK for MCP. Despite this, the fallback should kick in and the API keys will be read from the `.env` file.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**If MCP server doesn't start:**
+
+- Verify the JSON configuration is valid
+- Check that Node.js is installed
+- Ensure API keys are properly formatted
+
+**If AI commands fail:**
+
+- Verify at least one API key is configured
+- Check API key permissions and quotas
+- Try using a different model via the `models` tool
+
+## CLI Fallback
+
+Taskmaster is also available via CLI commands, by installing with `npm install task-master-ai@latest` in a terminal. Running `task-master help` will show all available commands, which offer a 1:1 experience with the MCP server. As the AI agent, you should refer to the system prompts and rules provided to you to identify Taskmaster-specific rules that help you understand how and when to use it.
+
+## Next Steps
+
+Once installed, users can:
+
+- Create new tasks with `add-task` or parse a PRD (scripts/prd.txt) into tasks with `parse-prd`
+- Set up model preferences with `models` tool
+- Expand tasks into subtasks with `expand-all` and `expand-task`
+- Explore advanced features like research mode and complexity analysis
+
+For detailed documentation, refer to the Task Master docs directory.``
