"task-master-ai": patch
---
- Adjusts the MCP server invokation in the mcp.json we ship with `task-master init`. Fully functional now.
- Rename MCP tools to better align with API conventions and natural language in client chat:
- Rename `list-tasks` to `get-tasks` for more intuitive client requests like "get my tasks"
- Rename `show-task` to `get-task` for consistency with GET-based API naming conventions
- Implement robust project root detection with a hierarchical precedence system:
- Environment variable override (TASK_MASTER_PROJECT_ROOT)
- Explicitly provided project root (--project-root parameter)
- Cached project root from previous successful operations
- Current directory with project markers
- Parent directory traversal to find tasks.json
- Package directory as fallback
- Add comprehensive PROJECT_MARKERS array for detecting common project files:
- Task Master specific files (tasks.json, tasks/tasks.json)
- Version control markers (.git, .svn)
- Package files (package.json, pyproject.toml, etc.)
- IDE/editor folders (.cursor, .vscode, .idea)
- Dependency directories (node_modules, venv)
- Configuration files (.env, tsconfig.json, etc.)
- CI/CD files (.github/workflows, etc.)
- Improved error messages with specific troubleshooting guidance
- Enhanced logging to indicate the source of project root selection
- DRY refactoring by centralizing path utilities in core/utils/path-utils.js
- Add caching of lastFoundProjectRoot for improved performance
- Split monolithic task-master-core.js into separate function files within direct-functions directory
- Implement update-task MCP command for updating a single task by ID
- Implement update-subtask MCP command for appending information to specific subtasks
- Implement generate MCP command for creating individual task files from tasks.json
- Implement set-status MCP command for updating task status
- Implement get-task MCP command for displaying detailed task information (renamed from show-task)
- Implement next-task MCP command for finding the next task to work on
- Implement expand-task MCP command for breaking down tasks into subtasks
- Implement add-task MCP command for creating new tasks using AI assistance
- Implement add-subtask MCP command for adding subtasks to existing tasks
- Implement remove-subtask MCP command for removing subtasks from parent tasks
- Implement expand-all MCP command for expanding all tasks into subtasks
- Implement analyze-complexity MCP command for analyzing task complexity
- Implement clear-subtasks MCP command for clearing subtasks from parent tasks
- Implement remove-dependency MCP command for removing dependencies from tasks
- Implement validate-dependencies MCP command for checking validity of task dependencies
- Implement fix-dependencies MCP command for automatically fixing invalid dependencies
- Implement complexity-report MCP command for displaying task complexity analysis reports
- Implement add-dependency MCP command for creating dependency relationships between tasks
- Implement get-tasks MCP command for listing all tasks (renamed from list-tasks)
- Document MCP server naming conventions in architecture.mdc and mcp.mdc files (file names use kebab-case, direct functions use camelCase with Direct suffix, tool registration functions use camelCase with Tool suffix, and MCP tool names use snake_case)
- Update MCP tool naming to follow more intuitive conventions that better align with natural language requests in client chat applications
- Enhance task show view with a color-coded progress bar for visualizing subtask completion percentage
- Add "cancelled" status to UI module status configurations for marking tasks as cancelled without deletion
- Improve MCP server resource documentation with comprehensive implementation examples and best practices
- Enhance progress bars with status breakdown visualization showing proportional sections for different task statuses
- Add improved status tracking for both tasks and subtasks with detailed counts by status
- Optimize progress bar display with width constraints to prevent UI overflow on smaller terminals
- Improve status counts display with clear text labels beside status icons for better readability
- Treat deferred and cancelled tasks as effectively complete for progress calculation while maintaining visual distinction
