SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Speckit-tasks helps teams convert design artifacts into a structured, dependency-ordered tasks list that can be executed without ambiguity, reducing handoffs and rework.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Auto-derivation of tasks from plan.md, spec.md, data-models, and contracts to create a phased execution plan.
  • User story-centric generation: organizes work by US1, US2, ... with setup, foundational, and story phases, plus a final polish phase.
  • Validation & formatting: outputs tasks in the strict checklist format ready for execution, with explicit file paths and dependencies.

Quick Start

Provide the project plan.md and spec.md in the repository and run speckit-tasks to generate a complete, ready-to-run tasks.md that encodes the feature's development plan.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate dependency-ordered tasks from design artifacts?▼

To generate dependency-ordered tasks from design artifacts, you provide project plan.md and spec.md files to produce a structured, ready-to-run tasks.md that encodes the feature's development plan.

How does task generation work with a spec-kit project structure?▼

Task generation with a spec-kit structure auto-derives tasks from plan.md, spec.md, data-models, and contracts, organizing them into setup, foundational, story phases, and a final polish phase.

Can I use user stories to group generated tasks for project management?▼

Yes, generated tasks are user story-centric, organizing work by US1, US2, and beyond with explicit dependencies to create a clear, phased execution plan.

Do I need a contracts file to generate a tasks.md checklist?▼

You need project plan.md and spec.md files to generate a tasks.md checklist, while contracts and data-models are also auto-derived to enforce strict formatting and dependency rules.

What is the best way to convert requirements docs into an executable plan?▼

The best way to convert requirements docs into an executable plan is auto-deriving tasks from spec-kit artifacts, which outputs a strict checklist format with explicit file paths and dependencies.

Why does my generated tasks list include a final polish phase?▼

A generated tasks list includes a final polish phase to ensure all user story phases, foundational setup, and dependency-ordered executions are validated and formatted into a ready-to-run checklist.
