tasks-consistency

Task synchronization between plan.md and tasks.md is automated by comparing the authoritative plan against the derived progress view and directly editing tasks.md to reflect the latest changes. This ensures both markdown documents remain consistent upon every invocation.

Edge cases like task removals and ID changes in plan.md are handled automatically during file reconciliation. The process recalculates task states and updates tasks.md to ensure subtask-level details and overall task tracking remain accurately synchronized.

Automating markdown file consistency checks is best handled by running a reconciliation workflow that directly compares task tracking documents. It provides a verification checklist to ensure all project management tasks are correctly synchronized without manual review.

No external dependencies are required to run task reconciliation on markdown files. The process relies solely on direct file editing and state recalculations within your project directory to synchronize plan.md and tasks.md.

You can verify subtask-level synchronization by using the comprehensive verification checklist provided after the reconciliation workflow runs. This checklist confirms that all task information, including subtask details, matches between plan.md and tasks.md.
