Multi-session task management persists context, blockers, and learnings across milestones, tasks, and subtasks using tickets that carry full decisions for seamless cross-session handoffs. It enforces a workflow API with context propagation and verifiable completion.

Organizing cross-session work involves breaking it into hierarchical milestones, tasks, and subtasks with context inheritance and learning bubbling. A workflow API manages the lifecycle through get, nextReady, start, complete, reopen, and delete operations.

VCS integration supports task start and complete operations to improve traceability and reliability. It ties version control actions to the task lifecycle, ensuring that context and learnings are captured during each phase of multi-session work.

Blockers are tracked within task context, and verification-driven completion requires confirming work before marking tasks done. The workflow provides guidance for resolving blockers and enforces verifiable completion to maintain reliable task records.

Context propagation suits research workflows requiring cross-session coordination and durable records. Persistent task context ensures decisions and learnings bubble up across hierarchies, enabling seamless handoffs for complex research efforts.

Ticket-based task hierarchies are unnecessary for simple, single-session work that does not require context handoffs, blocker tracking, or verifiable completion. It is designed for complex workflows spanning multiple sessions that need durable records.
