speckit-tasks

To generate a task plan from design artifacts, provide your feature's plan.md, spec.md, and optional documents like data-model.md. The tool processes these inputs to automatically produce a dependency-ordered tasks.md file with phased execution steps.

Creating a dependency graph for feature tasks involves analyzing design artifacts to map relationships. The generated tasks.md organizes work into phases like Setup, Foundational, and Polish, establishing clear dependencies to guide parallelization and sequencing.

Yes, you can include test task generation when building a checklist from a specification. When requested, the generated tasks.md integrates optional test tasks alongside the mandatory checklist formatting and required file paths.

You do not need a data-model.md file to generate a phased task list. A plan.md and spec.md are sufficient, but providing optional documents like data-model.md, contracts/, and research.md improves dependency mapping and task derivation.

Generated project management tasks follow a strict checklist format. Each task in the tasks.md output includes specific file paths and is organized across dependency-ordered phases to ensure consistent execution.

Automated task generation handles feature sequencing by deriving a dependency graph from your design artifacts. It structures tasks into sequential phases from Setup to Polish, enabling teams to identify parallelizable work streams.
