Load Project Tasks

Load tasks from 
projects/$ARGUMENTS/tasks/
into the current Claude Code session.
Tasks are stored in session subdirectories to preserve history across 
/clear
commands:
projects/$ARGUMENTS/tasks/
├── {session-1-uuid}/
│   ├── 1.json
│   └── 2.json
└── {session-2-uuid}/
    ├── 1.json
    └── 2.json

Process

Step 1: Validate Project

Check if the project exists and has task files:
bash
find projects/$ARGUMENTS/tasks -name "*.json" 2>/dev/null | head -5
If no task files exist, report: "No tasks found in projects/$ARGUMENTS/tasks/"
List available sessions:
bash
ls -dt projects/$ARGUMENTS/tasks/*/ 2>/dev/null | head -10

Step 2: Set Active Project

Create the active project marker:
bash
echo "$ARGUMENTS" > .claude-active-project
This ensures any new tasks created will sync back to this project.

Step 3: Load Tasks

Find and load all task JSON files from ALL session directories:
bash
find projects/$ARGUMENTS/tasks -name "*.json" -type f
For each JSON file found:
  1. Read the task JSON file
  2. Use TaskCreate to recreate the task with:
    • subject from JSON
    • description from JSON
    • activeForm from JSON
    • metadata: 
      { "project": "$ARGUMENTS" }
  3. If the task was already completed (status: "completed"), use TaskUpdate to mark it completed

Step 4: Report

After loading all tasks, report:
Loaded X tasks from projects/$ARGUMENTS/tasks/
- Sessions found: N
- Pending: Y
- Completed: Z

Active project set to: $ARGUMENTS
New tasks will automatically sync to this project.

Notes

  • Tasks are recreated with new IDs in the current session
  • The original task IDs from the project are not preserved
  • Tasks from ALL sessions are loaded (full history)
  • Task dependencies (blocks/blockedBy) are NOT currently preserved across load/sync cycles
  • Use TaskList to see the loaded tasks
