How does this skill help with blocked tasks?

It searches your task containers, checks incoming dependencies, and highlights exactly which incomplete tasks are preventing progress on others to provide a clear path forward.

What is a 'bottleneck task' in this context?

A bottleneck is a single task that blocks a large number of other downstream tasks; this skill identifies them so you can prioritize their completion to unblock the most work.

Can I use this for planning parallel work?

Absolutely. The skill identifies 'ready' tasks that have no active dependencies, allowing you to assign work to multiple developers or agents simultaneously.

Does this skill create or modify task dependencies?

No, this skill is specifically designed for analysis and reporting. To create, update, or remove dependencies, you should use the core 'manage_dependency' tools directly.

Can it detect circular dependencies?

Yes, it recursively analyzes task chains to identify deadlocks where tasks depend on each other in a loop, preventing any from starting.

생산성 및 워크플로

Analyzes complex task relationships to identify blockers, bottlenecks, and optimal execution paths within the Task Orchestrator framework.

소개

This skill empowers Claude to perform deep-dive analysis into project workflows by mapping out task relationships and identifying critical paths. It helps developers and project managers understand exactly why features are stalled, which tasks offer the highest impact when completed, and how to structure parallel work streams efficiently. By leveraging specialized tools to query task containers and recursive dependency chains, it provides actionable insights and scoring to resolve deadlocks and accelerate project delivery.
