SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Automates end-to-end execution of task plans, ensuring every listed task reaches DONE with auditable progress updates.

Core Features & Use Cases

Plan-driven execution: reads tasks with statuses, executes in order, and updates statuses in the plan file.
Deterministic progression: announces next pending task and transitions it from PENDING to IN_PROGRESS to DONE.
Progress verification: re-reads the plan to confirm all tasks are DONE before declaring completion.

Quick Start

Provide the path to a plan file under plans/ and I will begin executing its tasks to completion.

FAQPage Schema

How do I automate task execution and track progress for a structured plan?▼

Automating task execution requires a tool that reads structured plans and updates task statuses like PENDING, IN_PROGRESS, and DONE. This skill automates that exact progression, executing tasks in order and providing live status tracking until all items reach DONE.

What is deterministic progression for plan-driven task automation?▼

Deterministic progression ensures tasks in a plan are executed sequentially, transitioning explicitly from PENDING to IN_PROGRESS and finally to DONE. This approach guarantees auditable status tracking and verifies every task completes successfully before declaring the plan finished.

How do I verify that all tasks in a workflow plan have reached completion?▼

To verify workflow completion, you need a mechanism that re-reads the plan file to confirm every task status is set to DONE. This skill performs progress verification automatically, ensuring no pending or in-progress tasks are left behind before declaring the overall plan complete.

Can I execute task plans stored in a local directory path?▼

Yes, you can execute task plans from a local directory path. You simply provide the path to your plan file, and the automation tool reads the structured tasks, executes them in order, and updates the statuses directly within that file.

Do I need any external dependencies to automate structured task workflows?▼

No external dependencies are required to automate structured task workflows. The execution and status tracking mechanism operates independently, requiring only a structured plan file with defined task statuses to begin sequential progression and verification.

Why is my task plan not progressing past pending statuses?▼

Task plans get stuck at pending statuses when lacking an automated execution mechanism to transition them to IN_PROGRESS and DONE. Using a deterministic plan execution tool ensures tasks are read, processed step-by-step, and updated with auditable progress to reach completion.
