How does Bits handle task dependencies?

Bits uses a dependency command to link tasks. When a task is blocked by another, it is automatically excluded from the 'ready' list until the blocking task is closed.

How do I see what I should work on right now?

You can use the 'bits ready' command, which filters your entire backlog to show only the tasks that are not currently blocked by other dependencies.

When should I use Bits vs a simple TaskCreate command?

Use Bits for multi-step projects and tasks with dependencies. Use TaskCreate for simple, one-off checklists or quick session-scoped todos that don't require long-term tracking.

What is the benefit of 'Session' commands in Bits?

Session commands allow Claude to claim or release primary work sessions, helping you maintain context and ownership over specific tasks even if you step away from the terminal.

생산성 및 워크플로

Manages complex developer workflows and multi-step projects using dependency-aware task tracking and session management.

소개

Bits is a specialized workflow skill for Claude Code designed to handle the complexities of multi-step software development projects. Unlike simple todo lists, Bits allows you to define dependencies between tasks, ensuring you only focus on 'ready' work while maintaining a clear view of blockers. It features robust session management to track progress across multiple days, 'drain mode' for clearing backlogs, and structured task descriptions that include acceptance criteria and session notes, making it an essential tool for developers managing intricate feature rollouts.
