file-todos

You can manage project todos using markdown files with YAML frontmatter by creating files in a 'todos/' directory. This system supports task status management, priority assignment, and dependency tracking to ensure project clarity and accountability.

Tracking task dependencies in a file-based workflow is handled by defining inter-task relationships directly within markdown todo files. This allows you to manage lifecycle states from pending to ready and complete while maintaining clear task hierarchies.

Triage pending tasks from code review findings by generating new markdown todo files that capture the feedback. You can define priority levels and acceptance criteria, then review and approve these pending tasks for the team to address.

Logging chronological work history and actions within markdown task files is fully supported. You can maintain a detailed record of actions and learnings directly in the todo file to track progress over time.

This markdown task management system integrates directly with development workflows via slash commands and code review processes. It allows you to seamlessly generate new todos from findings, feedback, or code.

You should avoid a markdown-based todo system for project management if your workflow requires real-time multi-user concurrent editing or complex graphical Kanban boards, as this system relies entirely on file-based markdown tracking.
