FAQPage Schema
How do I capture tasks from conversation context without losing my current workflow?

Capturing tasks from conversation context is automated by extracting ideas into structured todos. The skill handles content extraction, area inference, and duplicate detection so you can record ideas immediately without interrupting your current development session.

How does automated todo creation handle directory management and version control?

Automated todo creation handles directory management by inferring the correct area and creating todo files with frontmatter. It then updates STATE.md and manages git commits to integrate the new tasks directly into your version control workflow.

Can I use this task capture process during an active development session?

Yes, you can use this task capture process during active development sessions. It is specifically designed for GSD sessions where tasks surface during other activities, allowing you to capture feature requests or ideas instantly without losing your place in your current task.

What is the best way to organize extracted tasks and prevent duplicate todo entries?

The best way to organize extracted tasks and prevent duplicates is through automated area inference and duplicate detection. The skill automatically manages directory creation and checks for existing entries, ensuring your structured todos remain uniquely organized for later work.

Do I need git to manage structured todos captured from conversations?

Yes, git is used for version control integration when managing structured todos. The capture workflow automatically commits the newly created todo files and updates STATE.md, integrating your captured tasks directly into your repository's version history.
