Can I import tasks from external tools?

Yes, you can provide a Jira key, GitHub issue number, or Linear issue, and the skill will fetch the description and acceptance criteria to use for decomposition.

What is an atomic task in the context of this skill?

An atomic task is a single, testable unit of work that performs one action, typically touches only one file, and results in fewer than 100 lines of code.

How are the tasks saved and managed?

Tasks are stored in a local SQLite database at .devkit/tasks.db and summarized in a .devkit/tasks.md file for easy reference.

What is the difference between the 'atomize' and 'atomic' skills?

'atomize' is for planning and breaking down work into a database, while the companion 'atomic' skill is used to execute those individual tasks one by one.

Does the skill handle task dependencies?

Yes, it assigns an execution order and maps 'depends_on' relationships to ensure tasks are completed in the correct logical sequence.

Productivity & Workflow

Decomposes complex task prompts into atomic, executable subtasks stored in a local SQLite database for structured development.

The Task Atomizer skill is a sophisticated project planning utility for Claude Code designed to transform vague or high-level requirements into a granular, execution-ready roadmap. By analyzing project context, inferring the technical stack, and enforcing strict 'atomic' task rules—where each unit of work is a single action affecting one file—it eliminates ambiguity during the implementation phase. It features intelligent dependency mapping (DAG), support for external issue trackers like Jira and GitHub, and local persistence via SQLite, making it an essential tool for developers who want to maintain a structured workflow and track progress within their terminal.
