Eyal Toledano c5738a2513 feat: Add skipped tests for task-manager and utils modules, and address potential issues
This commit introduces a comprehensive set of skipped tests to both  and . These skipped tests serve as a blueprint for future test implementation, outlining the necessary test cases for currently untested functionalities.

- Ensures sync with bin/ folder by adding -r/--research to the  command
- Fixes an issue that improperly parsed command line args
- Ensures confirmation card on dependency add/remove
- Properly formats some sub-task dependencies

**Potentially addressed issues:**

While primarily focused on adding test coverage, this commit also implicitly addresses potential issues by:

- **Improving error handling coverage:** The addition of skipped tests for error scenarios in functions like , , , and  highlights areas where error handling needs to be robustly tested and potentially improved in the codebase.
- **Enhancing dependency validation:** Skipped tests for  include validation of dependencies, prompting a review of the dependency validation logic and ensuring its correctness.
- **Standardizing test coverage:** By creating a clear roadmap for testing all functions, this commit contributes to a more standardized and complete test suite, reducing the likelihood of undiscovered bugs in the future.

**task-manager.test.js:**

- Added skipped test blocks for the following functions:
    - : Includes tests for handling valid JSON responses, malformed JSON, missing tasks in responses, Perplexity AI research integration, Claude fallback, and parallel task processing.
    - : Covers tests for updating tasks based on context, handling Claude streaming, Perplexity AI integration, scenarios with no tasks to update, and error handling during updates.
    - : Includes tests for generating task files from , formatting dependencies with status indicators, handling tasks without subtasks, empty task arrays, and dependency validation before file generation.
    - : Covers tests for updating task status, subtask status using dot notation, updating multiple tasks, automatic subtask status updates, parent task update suggestions, and handling non-existent task IDs.
    - : Includes tests for updating regular and subtask statuses, handling parent tasks without subtasks, and non-existent subtask IDs.
    - : Covers tests for displaying all tasks, filtering by status, displaying subtasks, showing completion statistics, identifying the next task, and handling empty task arrays.
    - : Includes tests for generating subtasks, using complexity reports for subtask counts, Perplexity AI integration, appending subtasks, skipping completed tasks, and error handling during subtask generation.
    - : Covers tests for expanding all pending tasks, sorting by complexity, skipping tasks with existing subtasks (unless forced), using task-specific parameters from complexity reports, handling empty task arrays, and error handling for individual tasks.
    - : Includes tests for clearing subtasks from specific and multiple tasks, handling tasks without subtasks, non-existent task IDs, and regenerating task files after clearing subtasks.
    - : Covers tests for adding new tasks using AI, handling Claude streaming, validating dependencies, handling malformed AI responses, and using existing task context for generation.

**utils.test.js:**

- Added skipped test blocks for the following functions:
    - : Tests for logging messages according to log levels and filtering messages below configured levels.
    - : Tests for reading and parsing valid JSON files, handling file not found errors, and invalid JSON formats.
    - : Tests for writing JSON data to files and handling file write errors.
    - : Tests for escaping double quotes in prompts and handling prompts without special characters.
    - : Tests for reading and parsing complexity reports, handling missing report files, and custom report paths.
    - : Tests for finding tasks in reports by ID, handling non-existent task IDs, and invalid report structures.
    - : Tests for verifying existing task and subtask IDs, handling non-existent IDs, and invalid inputs.
    - : Tests for formatting numeric and string task IDs and preserving dot notation for subtasks.
    - : Tests for detecting simple and complex cycles in dependency graphs, handling acyclic graphs, and empty dependency maps.

These skipped tests provide a clear roadmap for future test development, ensuring comprehensive coverage for core functionalities in both modules. They document the intended behavior of each function and outline various scenarios, including happy paths, edge cases, and error conditions, thereby improving the overall test strategy and maintainability of the Task Master CLI.

# Task ID: 8
# Title: Develop Implementation Drift Handling
# Status: done
# Dependencies: 3, 5, 7
# Priority: medium
# Description: Create system to handle changes in implementation that affect future tasks.
# Details:
Implement drift handling including:
- Add capability to update future tasks based on completed work
- Implement task rewriting based on new context
- Create dependency chain updates when tasks change
- Preserve completed work while updating future tasks
- Add command to analyze and suggest updates to future tasks
# Test Strategy:
Simulate implementation changes and test the system's ability to update future tasks appropriately. Verify that completed tasks remain unchanged while pending tasks are updated correctly.
# Subtasks:
## 1. Create Task Update Mechanism Based on Completed Work [done]
### Dependencies: None
### Description: Implement a system that can identify pending tasks affected by recently completed tasks and update them accordingly. This requires analyzing the dependency chain and determining which future tasks need modification based on implementation decisions made in completed tasks. Create a function that takes a completed task ID as input, identifies dependent tasks, and prepares them for potential updates.
### Details:
## 2. Implement AI-Powered Task Rewriting [done]
### Dependencies: None
### Description: Develop functionality to use Claude API to rewrite pending tasks based on new implementation context. This involves creating specialized prompts that include the original task description, the implementation details of completed dependency tasks, and instructions to update the pending task to align with the actual implementation. The system should generate updated task descriptions, details, and test strategies.
### Details:
## 3. Build Dependency Chain Update System [done]
### Dependencies: None
### Description: Create a system to update task dependencies when task implementations change. This includes adding new dependencies that weren't initially identified, removing dependencies that are no longer relevant, and reordering dependencies based on implementation decisions. The system should maintain the integrity of the dependency graph while reflecting the actual implementation requirements.
### Details:
## 4. Implement Completed Work Preservation [done]
### Dependencies: 8.3
### Description: Develop a mechanism to ensure that updates to future tasks don't affect completed work. This includes creating a versioning system for tasks, tracking task history, and implementing safeguards to prevent modifications to completed tasks. The system should maintain a record of task changes while ensuring that completed work remains stable.
### Details:
## 5. Create Update Analysis and Suggestion Command [done]
### Dependencies: 8.3
### Description: Implement a CLI command that analyzes the current state of tasks, identifies potential drift between completed and pending tasks, and suggests updates. This command should provide a comprehensive report of potential inconsistencies and offer recommendations for task updates without automatically applying them. It should include options to apply all suggested changes, select specific changes to apply, or ignore suggestions.
