How does this skill handle work discovered during implementation?

It mandates recording discovered work in Beans immediately to prevent context loss, followed by an assessment to escalate the task to Linear if it affects scope or requires human approval.

Does this skill automate git commit messages?

It provides specific formatting rules to ensure every commit references the associated Linear ticket and Beans issue, maintaining a clear link between code changes and tasks.

Why use TodoWrite alongside Beans and Linear?

TodoWrite provides immediate, live visibility for the user during a session, while Beans provides a persistent git-synced record and Linear serves as the permanent project record for humans.

What is the 'Beans' system mentioned in this skill?

Beans is a git-tracked, agent-specific memory system used to store implementation details and audit trails that are too granular for human-facing trackers like Linear but necessary for session persistence.

生产力与工作流

Coordinates task management across session-level progress, git-tracked agent memory, and external Linear project tracking.

关于

This skill establishes a structured three-tier task-tracking hierarchy to ensure seamless coordination between Claude, the developer, and the broader team. It integrates TodoWrite for live session visibility, Beans for persistent agent memory and audit trails, and Linear for human-level project tracking. By enforcing bidirectional linking, standardized git commit patterns, and clear escalation rules for discovered work, it ensures that implementation details are never lost while keeping project-level documentation clean and actionable.
