speckit-tasks

To generate a dependency-ordered task checklist from feature design artifacts, run speckit-tasks to convert your spec.md and .specify artifacts into a structured tasks.md plan. It organizes work into Setup, Foundational, User Story, and Polish phases with clear dependencies.

Automating project planning from a spec document involves mapping user stories into a phase-based lifecycle. This tool aligns tasks to each user story from the spec, validates the checklist format, and supports parallelization to produce a ready-to-run tasks.md file.

Yes, spec-kit artifacts from the .specify directory can be used to create a phase-based task plan. The tool reads these design artifacts and automatically structures the output into setup, foundational, user story, and polish phases.

Yes, task generation validates the checklist formatting to ensure tasks follow the correct structure and supports parallelization. It also optionally exposes extension hooks after the tasks.md generation is complete for further customization.

Generated tasks are organized into setup, foundational, user story, and polish phases to establish a clear dependency order. This structured phase flow ensures foundational work is completed before user stories by priority, leading logically to final polish tasks.
