What problem does it solve?

This Skill generates an actionable, dependency-ordered tasks.md file for a feature, leveraging spec-kit project structure.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Dependency-Ordered Tasks: Automates the creation of tasks based on the spec-kit project structure, including dependency graphs.
  • Automated Workflow Generation: Produces tasks with parallel execution examples per user story and comprehensive dependencies.
  • Use Case: Streamline the development process by automatically generating tasks.md files that outline implementation strategies, setup, foundational tasks, and user story-specific tasks.

Quick Start

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 file from a spec-kit project structure?

You generate a dependency-ordered tasks.md file by running the speckit-tasks Skill against your spec-kit project directory. It analyzes the .specify/ folder to produce actionable tasks, parallel execution examples, and implementation strategies.

What is automated task generation for spec-kit development workflows?

Automated task generation for spec-kit workflows is the process of parsing your project structure to output a dependency graph and foundational tasks. This Skill creates a tasks.md file outlining setup and user story-specific implementation strategies.

Do I need a .specify directory to automate project task generation?

Yes, you need a spec-kit project structure containing a .specify/ directory to use this task generation Skill. The tool relies on this specific directory structure to map dependencies and generate actionable development tasks.

Can I add custom hooks before or after generating spec-kit tasks?

Yes, you can extend the spec-kit task generation process using pre- and post-task generation extension hooks. This allows you to customize the workflow before parsing the project structure and after creating the tasks.md output.

What's the best way to outline parallel execution examples for user stories?

The best way to outline parallel execution examples is to automate tasks.md generation using the spec-kit structure. This Skill maps comprehensive dependencies and generates parallel execution examples per user story automatically.

Why are my generated development tasks missing dependency order?

Generated tasks lack dependency order if the project lacks a valid spec-kit structure with a .specify/ directory. Ensure your target path contains the correct spec-kit configuration so the tool can accurately map the dependency graph.
