To generate tasks from a PRD and ADR, you provide the file paths and an optional issue number to run the Spec Kit pipeline. This orchestrates task generation by producing intermediate artifacts like spec.md and plan.md, culminating in a final tasks.md file.

The Spec Kit pipeline is an automated workflow that transforms PRD and ADR documentation into concrete work items. It sequentially executes specify, clarify, plan, research, complexity check, checklist, and task-generation steps to produce a complete task list.

To update an existing task pipeline, use the update mode with the specific issue number. This mode skips initial specify and verify steps, creates a new git branch, and restarts the workflow from the Clarify phase to reflect new constraints.

Yes, you can audit the task generation workflow because the pipeline commits changes after each major step. It maintains a dedicated progress file that documents the entire audit trail from initial documentation to final tasks.md generation.

Yes, you need a PRD to define the feature and an ADR to define constraints before starting task generation. These markdown files provide the necessary inputs for the pipeline to produce accurate spec.md, plan.md, and tasks.md artifacts.
