How does this skill prevent file conflicts in todos.json?

The skill uses a dedicated API (POST /api/todos/complete) to handle status changes rather than editing files directly, which prevents data corruption if multiple processes are running.

What information is included in the Telegram update?

The notification includes the task title, ID, a markdown-formatted description of the work performed, a list of affected files, and a completion timestamp.

Where are the completed tasks stored after archiving?

Tasks are moved from the active list into an archives/ directory, saved as JSON files named with the date and time of completion.

Can I use this skill without sending Telegram notifications?

Yes, you can use the --no-notify flag to complete the task and archive it without triggering a Telegram message.

Automates the task completion lifecycle by updating status via API, sending Telegram notifications, and archiving finished work.

The Heartbeat Task Completion Skill provides a standardized, reliable method for closing out development tasks within an AI-driven workspace. By utilizing an API-driven approach rather than direct file manipulation, it ensures data integrity and prevents concurrency conflicts in shared todo files. The skill streamlines the post-development phase by automatically formatting and sending progress updates to Telegram, marking tasks as finished with precise timestamps, and organizing completed items into a dedicated archive for better workspace maintenance.
