What happens when a task is completed?

The skill renames the file prefix from 'todo -' to 'solved -' while preserving the original timestamp and description to maintain history.

What is the specific file naming format used?

Files are named as 'memory/todo - YYMMDDHHMM - [description].md' to ensure chronological order and clear identification.

Can I use this skill without providing a description upfront?

Yes, if no description is provided in the initial command, the skill will interactively ask you what needs to be done.

Why use file-based todos instead of a standard list?

File-based todos allow for detailed context, links to related specs, and better integration with Git-based developer workflows.

How does the todo skill store tasks?

It creates individual Markdown files in a 'memory/' directory using a specific timestamp and claim naming convention for easy tracking and versioning.
