## Version 0.27.2 - Automatic Parent Status Management
|
|
|
|
### ✨ New Features
|
|
|
|
**Automatic Parent Status Management**
|
|
- Parent tasks now automatically update their status based on subtask progress
|
|
- When all subtasks are marked as `done`, the parent task automatically becomes `done`
|
|
- When at least one subtask is `in-progress` or `done`, the parent task automatically becomes `in-progress`
|
|
- This eliminates manual parent status updates and ensures task hierarchy consistency
|
|
|
|
### 🔧 How It Works
|
|
|
|
The new system tracks subtask status changes and intelligently updates parent statuses:
|
|
|
|
1. **Subtask Progress Tracking**: Each subtask status change triggers parent evaluation
|
|
2. **Smart Status Rules**: Parent status reflects the collective progress of all subtasks
|
|
3. **Seamless Integration**: Works automatically with existing `set-status` commands and MCP tools
|
|
|
|
### 📈 Benefits
|
|
|
|
- **Reduced Manual Work**: No need to manually update parent task statuses
|
|
- **Better Visibility**: Parent tasks accurately reflect overall progress
|
|
- **Consistency**: Eliminates mismatched parent/subtask status combinations
|
|
- **AI-Friendly**: Provides clearer status hierarchy for AI assistants
