What problem does it solve?
It turns available design artifacts (plan and feature spec) into an immediately executable, dependency-ordered tasks document that can be followed story-by-story without guessing missing implementation details.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Actionable tasks.md generation: Produces a tasks.md following a strict checklist format with sequential task IDs, file paths, and clear execution order.
- Dependency-ordered workflow: Organizes tasks by user story priority (P1, P2, P3, etc.) and creates a dependency graph for completion sequencing.
- Optional hook integration: Detects pre-tasks and after-tasks hooks from .specify/extensions.yml (without interpreting conditions) to allow automated extension steps.
- Context-aware document loading: Loads required plan.md and spec.md, then conditionally incorporates data-model.md, contracts/, research.md, and quickstart.md when present.
Quick Start
Run the speckit-tasks skill with your spec-kit project directory context so it generates tasks.md from plan.md and spec.md in the feature directory.
