Can I use this on existing codebases?

Yes, it includes specific logic for existing projects, such as adding planning tasks to explore current patterns and verification tasks for regression testing.

How does it handle complex tasks?

It uses hierarchical nesting, allowing you to break down large parent tasks into smaller, atomic, and verifiable subtasks for better clarity.

What is the purpose of the Task List Creator?

It creates a structured todo.md file that organizes your project into Planning, Implementation, and Verification phases to ensure a thorough development cycle.

Where is the task list stored?

Task lists are stored in a standardized directory at .artifacts/bld- /todo.md to keep your root directory clean.

Does it track progress automatically?

The skill manages the file structure and frontmatter metadata; you can update task statuses to pending, in-progress, or complete as you work.

生产力与工作流

Generates and maintains structured, phase-based task lists for artifact-driven development workflows.

关于

The Task List Creator skill automates the generation of a comprehensive todo.md file within an artifact-driven development environment. By organizing requirements into distinct Planning, Implementation, and Verification phases, it ensures that technical research, atomic coding tasks, and testing protocols are treated as first-class citizens. This skill helps developers maintain momentum by providing a hierarchical roadmap that tracks progress from initial design to final verification, complete with timestamped updates and structured nesting for complex features.
