SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the manual effort of converting feature specifications, plans, and supporting documents into a clear implementation checklist that teams can execute immediately.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Dependency-ordered task generation: Builds a step-by-step tasks.md organized from setup through foundation, user stories, and polish.
  • Spec-driven planning: Uses available artifacts such as plan documents, user stories, data models, contracts, and research notes to shape the task list.
  • Practical use case: A product or engineering team can turn a feature brief into an implementation-ready plan with parallelizable work, story boundaries, and file-path-specific tasks.

Quick Start

Ask this Skill to generate a dependency-ordered tasks.md for your feature from the available specification artifacts.

Frequently Asked Questions about speckit-tasks

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a dependency-ordered tasks.md from feature specifications?▼

This Skill processes spec-kit project artifacts including plans, data models, and contracts to generate an actionable tasks.md. It outputs a dependency-ordered implementation checklist structured by setup, foundation, and per-story phases.

What is the best way to turn user stories into an implementation checklist?▼

Turning user stories into an implementation checklist is done by applying strict checklist formatting and dependency ordering to your feature specs. This creates file-path-specific tasks with story boundaries and parallelizable work for your engineering team.

Can I use spec-kit plans and data models to create parallelizable development tasks?▼

Yes, you can use spec-kit plans and data models to create parallelizable development tasks. The Skill analyzes your feature brief and supporting documents to shape a task list with clear story boundaries and extension-hook awareness for immediate execution.

Do I need specific feature design artifacts to generate a dependency-ordered task list?▼

Yes, generating a dependency-ordered task list requires feature design artifacts from spec-kit projects. It uses available specifications, quickstart notes, and contracts to ensure accurate per-story phases and dependency ordering in the final tasks.md output.

What limitations exist when converting feature specs into an actionable task list?▼

A key limitation when converting feature specs into an actionable task list is the strict requirement for spec-kit project artifacts. Without proper plans, data models, or contracts, the generated tasks.md cannot accurately format per-story phases or determine dependency ordering.
