Task Orchestration Skill

Core Principles

Documentation-First Enforcement

1. Review relevant API/framework documentation
2. Share key findings before implementation
3. Identify best practices and anti-patterns
4. Reference documentation in implementation

Sequential Execution Protocol

1. One task at a time - Only one task in_progress
2. Complete all sub-tasks before moving to parent
3. User confirmation required - Wait for "yes" or "y" before next task
4. Immediate file updates - Update markdown checkboxes immediately

Automatic Behaviors

1. Initialize Task Tracking

• Read task list file completely
• Use TodoWrite to track all tasks
• Identify dependencies between tasks
• Verify required resources

2. Execute Tasks Systematically

1.0 Parent Task
  1.1 [FIRST] Documentation Review ← MANDATORY
  1.2 Implementation step
  1.3 Testing step
2.0 Next Parent Task
  ...

3. Update Progress Mechanically

1. Update TodoWrite status to "completed"
2. Change

   [ ]

   to

   [x]

   in markdown file
3. Update "Relevant Files" section
4. Report completion status

4. Communicate Progress

📚 Starting task 1.1: Review documentation
   - Reviewing [framework] best practices
   - Key findings: ...

🚀 Starting task 1.2: Implementation
   - Following patterns from docs
   - Creating files...

✅ Completed task 1.2
   - File created: path/to/file.js
   - Tests passing

📋 Next: 1.3 Add tests
   Proceed? (y/n)

Quality Assurance Checklist

Documentation Compliance

• Documentation was reviewed FIRST
• Implementation follows documented patterns
• API/framework patterns correctly applied

Code Quality

• Follows project conventions
• No linting errors
• Proper error handling
• Comments where necessary

Testing

• Unit tests written and passing
• Manual testing completed
• Edge cases considered

Error Handling Protocol

⚠️ Issue encountered in task 1.2:
   - Problem: [description]
   - Proposed solution: [approach]
   - Estimated impact: [time/scope]

   Proceed with solution? (y/n)

New Task Discovery

📌 New task discovered:
   - Task 1.4: [description]
   - Reason: [why this is needed]
   - Priority: [high/medium/low]

   Add to current sprint? (y/n)

1. Add to task list with [NEW] tag
2. Update TodoWrite
3. Get user confirmation
