* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management
* docs: Update documentation and rules for tagged task lists system
- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.

- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.

* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features

The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

fix(core): Implement Boundary-First Tag Resolution (#943)
* refactor(context): Standardize tag and projectRoot handling across all task tools
This commit unifies context management by adopting a boundary-first resolution strategy. All task-scoped tools now resolve `tag` and `projectRoot` at their entry point and forward these values to the underlying direct functions.
This approach centralizes context logic, ensuring consistent behavior and enhanced flexibility in multi-tag environments.
* fix(tag): Clean up tag handling in task functions and sync process
This commit refines the handling of the `tag` parameter across multiple functions, ensuring consistent context management. The `tag` is now passed more efficiently in `listTasksDirect`, `setTaskStatusDirect`, and `syncTasksToReadme`, improving clarity and reducing redundancy. Additionally, a TODO comment has been added in `sync-readme.js` to address future tag support enhancements.
* feat(tag): Implement Boundary-First Tag Resolution for consistent tag handling
This commit introduces Boundary-First Tag Resolution in the task manager, ensuring consistent and deterministic tag handling across CLI and MCP. This change resolves potential race conditions and improves the reliability of tag-specific operations.

* Fix: unknown currentTag
* fix(task-manager): Update generateTaskFiles calls to include tag and projectRoot parameters
This commit modifies the `moveTask` and `updateSubtaskById` functions to pass the `tag` and `projectRoot` parameters to the `generateTaskFiles` function. This ensures that task files are generated with the correct context when requested, enhancing consistency in task management operations.
* fix(commands): Refactor tag handling and complexity report path resolution
This commit updates the `registerCommands` function to utilize `taskMaster.getCurrentTag()` for consistent tag retrieval across command actions. It also enhances the initialization of `TaskMaster` by passing the tag directly, improving clarity and maintainability. The complexity report path resolution is streamlined to ensure correct file naming based on the current tag context.
* fix(task-master): Update complexity report path expectations in tests
This commit modifies the `initTaskMaster` test to expect a valid string for the complexity report path, ensuring it matches the expected file naming convention. This change enhances test reliability by verifying the correct output format when the path is generated.
* fix(set-task-status): Enhance logging and tag resolution in task status updates
This commit improves the logging output in the `registerSetTaskStatusTool` function to include the tag context when setting task statuses. It also updates the tag handling by resolving the tag using the `resolveTag` utility, ensuring that the correct tag is used when updating task statuses. Additionally, the `setTaskStatus` function is modified to remove the tag parameter from the `readJSON` and `writeJSON` calls, streamlining the data handling process.
* fix(commands, expand-task, task-manager): Add complexity report option and enhance path handling
This commit introduces a new `--complexity-report` option in the `registerCommands` function, allowing users to specify a custom path for the complexity report. The `expandTask` function is updated to accept the `complexityReportPath` from the context, ensuring it is utilized correctly during task expansion. Additionally, the `setTaskStatus` function now includes the `tag` parameter in the `readJSON` and `writeJSON` calls, improving task status updates with proper context. The `initTaskMaster` function is also modified to create parent directories for output paths, enhancing file handling robustness.
* fix(expand-task): Add complexityReportPath to context for task expansion tests
This commit updates the test for the `expandTask` function by adding the `complexityReportPath` to the context object. This change ensures that the complexity report path is correctly utilized in the test, aligning with recent enhancements to complexity report handling in the task manager.
* chore: implement suggested changes
* fix(parse-prd): Clarify tag parameter description for task organization
Updated the documentation for the `tag` parameter in the `parse-prd.js` file to provide a clearer context on its purpose for organizing tasks into separate task lists.
* Fix Inconsistent tag resolution pattern.
* fix: Enhance complexity report path handling with tag support
This commit updates various functions to incorporate the `tag` parameter when resolving complexity report paths. The `expandTaskDirect`, `resolveComplexityReportPath`, and related tools now utilize the current tag context, improving consistency in task management. Additionally, the complexity report path is now correctly passed through the context in the `expand-task` and `set-task-status` tools, ensuring accurate report retrieval based on the active tag.
* Updated the JSDoc for the `tag` parameter in the `show-task.js` file.
* Remove redundant comment on tag parameter in readJSON call
* Remove unused import for getTagAwareFilePath
* Add missed complexityReportPath to args for task expansion
* fix(tests): Enhance research tests with tag-aware functionality
This commit updates the `research.test.js` file to improve the testing of the `performResearch` function by incorporating tag-aware functionality. Key changes include mocking the `findProjectRoot` to return a valid path, enhancing the `ContextGatherer` and `FuzzyTaskSearch` mocks, and adding comprehensive tests for tag parameter handling in various scenarios. The tests now cover passing different tag values, ensuring correct behavior when tags are provided, undefined, or null, and validating the integration of tags in task discovery and context gathering processes.
* Remove unused import for
* fix: Refactor complexity report path handling and improve argument destructuring
This commit enhances the `expandTaskDirect` function by improving the destructuring of arguments for better readability. It also updates the `analyze.js` and `analyze-task-complexity.js` files to utilize the new `resolveComplexityReportOutputPath` function, ensuring tag-aware resolution of output paths. Additionally, logging has been added to provide clarity on the report path being used.
* test: Add complexity report tag isolation tests and improve path handling
This commit introduces a new test file for complexity report tag isolation, ensuring that different tags maintain separate complexity reports. It enhances the existing tests in `analyze-task-complexity.test.js` by updating expectations to use `expect.stringContaining` for file paths, improving robustness against path changes. The new tests cover various scenarios, including path resolution and report generation for both master and feature tags, ensuring no cross-tag contamination occurs.

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management
* docs: Update documentation and rules for tagged task lists system
- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)
* chore: task management

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.

- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command

- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.

Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools

- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command

- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

fix(core): Implement Boundary-First Tag Resolution (#943)
* refactor(context): Standardize tag and projectRoot handling across all task tools
This commit unifies context management by adopting a boundary-first resolution strategy. All task-scoped tools now resolve `tag` and `projectRoot` at their entry point and forward these values to the underlying direct functions.
This approach centralizes context logic, ensuring consistent behavior and enhanced flexibility in multi-tag environments.
* fix(tag): Clean up tag handling in task functions and sync process
This commit refines the handling of the `tag` parameter across multiple functions, ensuring consistent context management. The `tag` is now passed more efficiently in `listTasksDirect`, `setTaskStatusDirect`, and `syncTasksToReadme`, improving clarity and reducing redundancy. Additionally, a TODO comment has been added in `sync-readme.js` to address future tag support enhancements.
* feat(tag): Implement Boundary-First Tag Resolution for consistent tag handling
This commit introduces Boundary-First Tag Resolution in the task manager, ensuring consistent and deterministic tag handling across CLI and MCP. This change resolves potential race conditions and improves the reliability of tag-specific operations.

* chore(biome): formatting
* fix(expand-task): Update writeJSON call to use tag instead of resolvedTag
* fix(commands): Enhance complexity report path resolution and task initialization
`resolveComplexityReportPath` function to streamline output path generation based on tag context and user-defined output.
- Improved clarity and maintainability of command handling by centralizing path resolution logic.
* Fix: unknown currentTag
* fix(task-manager): Update generateTaskFiles calls to include tag and projectRoot parameters
This commit modifies the `moveTask` and `updateSubtaskById` functions to pass the `tag` and `projectRoot` parameters to the `generateTaskFiles` function. This ensures that task files are generated with the correct context when requested, enhancing consistency in task management operations.
* fix(commands): Refactor tag handling and complexity report path resolution
This commit updates the `registerCommands` function to utilize `taskMaster.getCurrentTag()` for consistent tag retrieval across command actions. It also enhances the initialization of `TaskMaster` by passing the tag directly, improving clarity and maintainability. The complexity report path resolution is streamlined to ensure correct file naming based on the current tag context.
* fix(task-master): Update complexity report path expectations in tests
This commit modifies the `initTaskMaster` test to expect a valid string for the complexity report path, ensuring it matches the expected file naming convention. This change enhances test reliability by verifying the correct output format when the path is generated.
* fix(set-task-status): Enhance logging and tag resolution in task status updates
This commit improves the logging output in the `registerSetTaskStatusTool` function to include the tag context when setting task statuses. It also updates the tag handling by resolving the tag using the `resolveTag` utility, ensuring that the correct tag is used when updating task statuses. Additionally, the `setTaskStatus` function is modified to remove the tag parameter from the `readJSON` and `writeJSON` calls, streamlining the data handling process.
* fix(commands, expand-task, task-manager): Add complexity report option and enhance path handling
This commit introduces a new `--complexity-report` option in the `registerCommands` function, allowing users to specify a custom path for the complexity report. The `expandTask` function is updated to accept the `complexityReportPath` from the context, ensuring it is utilized correctly during task expansion. Additionally, the `setTaskStatus` function now includes the `tag` parameter in the `readJSON` and `writeJSON` calls, improving task status updates with proper context. The `initTaskMaster` function is also modified to create parent directories for output paths, enhancing file handling robustness.
* fix(expand-task): Add complexityReportPath to context for task expansion tests
This commit updates the test for the `expandTask` function by adding the `complexityReportPath` to the context object. This change ensures that the complexity report path is correctly utilized in the test, aligning with recent enhancements to complexity report handling in the task manager.

* fix(parse-prd): Clarify tag parameter description for task organization
Updated the documentation for the `tag` parameter in the `parse-prd.js` file to provide a clearer context on its purpose for organizing tasks into separate task lists.
* Fix Inconsistent tag resolution pattern.
* fix: Enhance complexity report path handling with tag support
This commit updates various functions to incorporate the `tag` parameter when resolving complexity report paths. The `expandTaskDirect`, `resolveComplexityReportPath`, and related tools now utilize the current tag context, improving consistency in task management. Additionally, the complexity report path is now correctly passed through the context in the `expand-task` and `set-task-status` tools, ensuring accurate report retrieval based on the active tag.
* Updated the JSDoc for the `tag` parameter in the `show-task.js` file.
* Remove redundant comment on tag parameter in readJSON call
* Remove unused import for getTagAwareFilePath
* Add missed complexityReportPath to args for task expansion
* fix(tests): Enhance research tests with tag-aware functionality
This commit updates the `research.test.js` file to improve the testing of the `performResearch` function by incorporating tag-aware functionality. Key changes include mocking the `findProjectRoot` to return a valid path, enhancing the `ContextGatherer` and `FuzzyTaskSearch` mocks, and adding comprehensive tests for tag parameter handling in various scenarios. The tests now cover passing different tag values, ensuring correct behavior when tags are provided, undefined, or null, and validating the integration of tags in task discovery and context gathering processes.
* Remove unused import for
* fix: Refactor complexity report path handling and improve argument destructuring
This commit enhances the `expandTaskDirect` function by improving the destructuring of arguments for better readability. It also updates the `analyze.js` and `analyze-task-complexity.js` files to utilize the new `resolveComplexityReportOutputPath` function, ensuring tag-aware resolution of output paths. Additionally, logging has been added to provide clarity on the report path being used.
* test: Add complexity report tag isolation tests and improve path handling
This commit introduces a new test file for complexity report tag isolation, ensuring that different tags maintain separate complexity reports. It enhances the existing tests in `analyze-task-complexity.test.js` by updating expectations to use `expect.stringContaining` for file paths, improving robustness against path changes. The new tests cover various scenarios, including path resolution and report generation for both master and feature tags, ensuring no cross-tag contamination occurs.

This commit introduces a standardized pattern for capturing and propagating AI usage telemetry (cost, tokens, model used) across the Task Master stack and applies it to the 'add-task' functionality.
Key changes include:
- **Telemetry Pattern Definition:**
- Added defining the integration pattern for core logic, direct functions, MCP tools, and CLI commands.
- Updated related rules (, ,
Usage: mcp [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...
MCP development tools
╭─ Options ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮
│ --help Show this message and exit. │
╰────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯
╭─ Commands ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮
│ version Show the MCP version. │
│ dev Run a MCP server with the MCP Inspector. │
│ run Run a MCP server. │
│ install Install a MCP server in the Claude desktop app. │
╰────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯, , ) to reference the new telemetry rule.
- **Core Telemetry Implementation ():**
- Refactored the unified AI service to generate and return a object alongside the main AI result.
- Fixed an MCP server startup crash by removing redundant local loading of and instead using the imported from for cost calculations.
- Added to the object.
- ** Integration:**
- Modified (core) to receive from the AI service, return it, and call the new UI display function for CLI output.
- Updated to receive from the core function and include it in the payload of its response.
- Ensured (MCP tool) correctly passes the through via .
- Updated to correctly pass context (, ) to the core function and rely on it for CLI telemetry display.
- **UI Enhancement:**
- Added function to to show telemetry details in the CLI.
- **Project Management:**
- Added subtasks 77.6 through 77.12 to track the rollout of this telemetry pattern to other AI-powered commands (, , , , , , ).
This establishes the foundation for tracking AI usage across the application.

fix(core): Implement Boundary-First Tag Resolution (#943)
* refactor(context): Standardize tag and projectRoot handling across all task tools
This commit unifies context management by adopting a boundary-first resolution strategy. All task-scoped tools now resolve `tag` and `projectRoot` at their entry point and forward these values to the underlying direct functions.
This approach centralizes context logic, ensuring consistent behavior and enhanced flexibility in multi-tag environments.
* fix(tag): Clean up tag handling in task functions and sync process
This commit refines the handling of the `tag` parameter across multiple functions, ensuring consistent context management. The `tag` is now passed more efficiently in `listTasksDirect`, `setTaskStatusDirect`, and `syncTasksToReadme`, improving clarity and reducing redundancy. Additionally, a TODO comment has been added in `sync-readme.js` to address future tag support enhancements.
* feat(tag): Implement Boundary-First Tag Resolution for consistent tag handling
This commit introduces Boundary-First Tag Resolution in the task manager, ensuring consistent and deterministic tag handling across CLI and MCP. This change resolves potential race conditions and improves the reliability of tag-specific operations.
Additionally, the `expandTask` function has been updated to use the resolved tag when writing JSON, enhancing data integrity during task updates.
* chore(biome): formatting
* fix(expand-task): Update writeJSON call to use tag instead of resolvedTag
* fix(commands): Enhance complexity report path resolution and task initialization
`resolveComplexityReportPath` function to streamline output path generation based on tag context and user-defined output.
- Improved clarity and maintainability of command handling by centralizing path resolution logic.
* Fix: unknown currentTag
* fix(task-manager): Update generateTaskFiles calls to include tag and projectRoot parameters
This commit modifies the `moveTask` and `updateSubtaskById` functions to pass the `tag` and `projectRoot` parameters to the `generateTaskFiles` function. This ensures that task files are generated with the correct context when requested, enhancing consistency in task management operations.
* fix(commands): Refactor tag handling and complexity report path resolution
This commit updates the `registerCommands` function to utilize `taskMaster.getCurrentTag()` for consistent tag retrieval across command actions. It also enhances the initialization of `TaskMaster` by passing the tag directly, improving clarity and maintainability. The complexity report path resolution is streamlined to ensure correct file naming based on the current tag context.
* fix(task-master): Update complexity report path expectations in tests
This commit modifies the `initTaskMaster` test to expect a valid string for the complexity report path, ensuring it matches the expected file naming convention. This change enhances test reliability by verifying the correct output format when the path is generated.
* fix(set-task-status): Enhance logging and tag resolution in task status updates
This commit improves the logging output in the `registerSetTaskStatusTool` function to include the tag context when setting task statuses. It also updates the tag handling by resolving the tag using the `resolveTag` utility, ensuring that the correct tag is used when updating task statuses. Additionally, the `setTaskStatus` function is modified to remove the tag parameter from the `readJSON` and `writeJSON` calls, streamlining the data handling process.
* fix(commands, expand-task, task-manager): Add complexity report option and enhance path handling
This commit introduces a new `--complexity-report` option in the `registerCommands` function, allowing users to specify a custom path for the complexity report. The `expandTask` function is updated to accept the `complexityReportPath` from the context, ensuring it is utilized correctly during task expansion. Additionally, the `setTaskStatus` function now includes the `tag` parameter in the `readJSON` and `writeJSON` calls, improving task status updates with proper context. The `initTaskMaster` function is also modified to create parent directories for output paths, enhancing file handling robustness.
* fix(expand-task): Add complexityReportPath to context for task expansion tests
This commit updates the test for the `expandTask` function by adding the `complexityReportPath` to the context object. This change ensures that the complexity report path is correctly utilized in the test, aligning with recent enhancements to complexity report handling in the task manager.
* chore: implement suggested changes
* fix(parse-prd): Clarify tag parameter description for task organization
Updated the documentation for the `tag` parameter in the `parse-prd.js` file to provide a clearer context on its purpose for organizing tasks into separate task lists.
* Fix Inconsistent tag resolution pattern.
* fix: Enhance complexity report path handling with tag support
This commit updates various functions to incorporate the `tag` parameter when resolving complexity report paths. The `expandTaskDirect`, `resolveComplexityReportPath`, and related tools now utilize the current tag context, improving consistency in task management. Additionally, the complexity report path is now correctly passed through the context in the `expand-task` and `set-task-status` tools, ensuring accurate report retrieval based on the active tag.
* Updated the JSDoc for the `tag` parameter in the `show-task.js` file.
* Remove redundant comment on tag parameter in readJSON call
* Remove unused import for getTagAwareFilePath
* Add missed complexityReportPath to args for task expansion
* fix(tests): Enhance research tests with tag-aware functionality
This commit updates the `research.test.js` file to improve the testing of the `performResearch` function by incorporating tag-aware functionality. Key changes include mocking the `findProjectRoot` to return a valid path, enhancing the `ContextGatherer` and `FuzzyTaskSearch` mocks, and adding comprehensive tests for tag parameter handling in various scenarios. The tests now cover passing different tag values, ensuring correct behavior when tags are provided, undefined, or null, and validating the integration of tags in task discovery and context gathering processes.
* Remove unused import for
* fix: Refactor complexity report path handling and improve argument destructuring
This commit enhances the `expandTaskDirect` function by improving the destructuring of arguments for better readability. It also updates the `analyze.js` and `analyze-task-complexity.js` files to utilize the new `resolveComplexityReportOutputPath` function, ensuring tag-aware resolution of output paths. Additionally, logging has been added to provide clarity on the report path being used.
* test: Add complexity report tag isolation tests and improve path handling
This commit introduces a new test file for complexity report tag isolation, ensuring that different tags maintain separate complexity reports. It enhances the existing tests in `analyze-task-complexity.test.js` by updating expectations to use `expect.stringContaining` for file paths, improving robustness against path changes. The new tests cover various scenarios, including path resolution and report generation for both master and feature tags, ensuring no cross-tag contamination occurs.

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management
* docs: Update documentation and rules for tagged task lists system
- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.

Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools

* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.

* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration

The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

fix(core): Implement Boundary-First Tag Resolution (#943)
* refactor(context): Standardize tag and projectRoot handling across all task tools
This commit unifies context management by adopting a boundary-first resolution strategy. All task-scoped tools now resolve `tag` and `projectRoot` at their entry point and forward these values to the underlying direct functions.
This approach centralizes context logic, ensuring consistent behavior and enhanced flexibility in multi-tag environments.
* fix(tag): Clean up tag handling in task functions and sync process
This commit refines the handling of the `tag` parameter across multiple functions, ensuring consistent context management. The `tag` is now passed more efficiently in `listTasksDirect`, `setTaskStatusDirect`, and `syncTasksToReadme`, improving clarity and reducing redundancy. Additionally, a TODO comment has been added in `sync-readme.js` to address future tag support enhancements.
* feat(tag): Implement Boundary-First Tag Resolution for consistent tag handling
This commit introduces Boundary-First Tag Resolution in the task manager, ensuring consistent and deterministic tag handling across CLI and MCP. This change resolves potential race conditions and improves the reliability of tag-specific operations.

This commit modifies the `moveTask` and `updateSubtaskById` functions to pass the `tag` and `projectRoot` parameters to the `generateTaskFiles` function. This ensures that task files are generated with the correct context when requested, enhancing consistency in task management operations.
* fix(commands): Refactor tag handling and complexity report path resolution
This commit updates the `registerCommands` function to utilize `taskMaster.getCurrentTag()` for consistent tag retrieval across command actions. It also enhances the initialization of `TaskMaster` by passing the tag directly, improving clarity and maintainability. The complexity report path resolution is streamlined to ensure correct file naming based on the current tag context.
* fix(task-master): Update complexity report path expectations in tests
This commit modifies the `initTaskMaster` test to expect a valid string for the complexity report path, ensuring it matches the expected file naming convention. This change enhances test reliability by verifying the correct output format when the path is generated.
* fix(set-task-status): Enhance logging and tag resolution in task status updates
This commit improves the logging output in the `registerSetTaskStatusTool` function to include the tag context when setting task statuses. It also updates the tag handling by resolving the tag using the `resolveTag` utility, ensuring that the correct tag is used when updating task statuses. Additionally, the `setTaskStatus` function is modified to remove the tag parameter from the `readJSON` and `writeJSON` calls, streamlining the data handling process.
* fix(commands, expand-task, task-manager): Add complexity report option and enhance path handling
This commit introduces a new `--complexity-report` option in the `registerCommands` function, allowing users to specify a custom path for the complexity report. The `expandTask` function is updated to accept the `complexityReportPath` from the context, ensuring it is utilized correctly during task expansion. Additionally, the `setTaskStatus` function now includes the `tag` parameter in the `readJSON` and `writeJSON` calls, improving task status updates with proper context. The `initTaskMaster` function is also modified to create parent directories for output paths, enhancing file handling robustness.
* fix(expand-task): Add complexityReportPath to context for task expansion tests
This commit updates the test for the `expandTask` function by adding the `complexityReportPath` to the context object. This change ensures that the complexity report path is correctly utilized in the test, aligning with recent enhancements to complexity report handling in the task manager.
* chore: implement suggested changes
* fix(parse-prd): Clarify tag parameter description for task organization
Updated the documentation for the `tag` parameter in the `parse-prd.js` file to provide a clearer context on its purpose for organizing tasks into separate task lists.
* Fix Inconsistent tag resolution pattern.
* fix: Enhance complexity report path handling with tag support
This commit updates various functions to incorporate the `tag` parameter when resolving complexity report paths. The `expandTaskDirect`, `resolveComplexityReportPath`, and related tools now utilize the current tag context, improving consistency in task management. Additionally, the complexity report path is now correctly passed through the context in the `expand-task` and `set-task-status` tools, ensuring accurate report retrieval based on the active tag.
* Updated the JSDoc for the `tag` parameter in the `show-task.js` file.
* Remove redundant comment on tag parameter in readJSON call
* Remove unused import for getTagAwareFilePath
* Add missed complexityReportPath to args for task expansion
* fix(tests): Enhance research tests with tag-aware functionality

Key changes include mocking the `findProjectRoot` to return a valid path, enhancing the `ContextGatherer` and `FuzzyTaskSearch` mocks, and adding comprehensive tests for tag parameter handling in various scenarios. The tests now cover passing different tag values, ensuring correct behavior when tags are provided, undefined, or null, and validating the integration of tags in task discovery and context gathering processes.
* Remove unused import for
* fix: Refactor complexity report path handling and improve argument destructuring
This commit enhances the `expandTaskDirect` function by improving the destructuring of arguments for better readability. It also updates the `analyze.js` and `analyze-task-complexity.js` files to utilize the new `resolveComplexityReportOutputPath` function, ensuring tag-aware resolution of output paths. Additionally, logging has been added to provide clarity on the report path being used.
* test: Add complexity report tag isolation tests and improve path handling
This commit introduces a new test file for complexity report tag isolation, ensuring that different tags maintain separate complexity reports. It enhances the existing tests in `analyze-task-complexity.test.js` by updating expectations to use `expect.stringContaining` for file paths, improving robustness against path changes. The new tests cover various scenarios, including path resolution and report generation for both master and feature tags, ensuring no cross-tag contamination occurs.

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management
* docs: Update documentation and rules for tagged task lists system
- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* chore: adds a warning when custom openrouter model is a free model which suffers from lower rate limits, restricted context, and, worst of all, no access to tool_use.
* refactor: enhance add-task fuzzy search and fix duplicate banner display
- **Remove hardcoded category system** in add-task that always matched 'Task management'
- **Eliminate arbitrary limits** in fuzzy search results (5→25 high relevance, 3→10 medium relevance, 8→20 detailed tasks)
- **Improve semantic weighting** in Fuse.js search (details=3, description=2, title=1.5) for better relevance
- **Fix duplicate banner issue** by removing console.clear() and redundant displayBanner() calls from UI functions
- **Enhance context generation** to rely on semantic similarity rather than rigid pattern matching
- **Preserve terminal history** to address GitHub issue #553 about eating terminal lines
- **Remove displayBanner() calls** from: displayHelp, displayNextTask, displayTaskById, displayComplexityReport, set-task-status, clear-subtasks, dependency-manager functions
The add-task system now provides truly relevant task context based on semantic similarity rather than arbitrary categories and limits, while maintaining a cleaner terminal experience.

* fix(get-task): makes the projectRoot argument required to prevent errors when getting tasks.
* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management
* docs: Update documentation and rules for tagged task lists system
- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)

- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

fix(core): Implement Boundary-First Tag Resolution (#943)
* refactor(context): Standardize tag and projectRoot handling across all task tools
This commit unifies context management by adopting a boundary-first resolution strategy. All task-scoped tools now resolve `tag` and `projectRoot` at their entry point and forward these values to the underlying direct functions.
This approach centralizes context logic, ensuring consistent behavior and enhanced flexibility in multi-tag environments.
* fix(tag): Clean up tag handling in task functions and sync process
This commit refines the handling of the `tag` parameter across multiple functions, ensuring consistent context management. The `tag` is now passed more efficiently in `listTasksDirect`, `setTaskStatusDirect`, and `syncTasksToReadme`, improving clarity and reducing redundancy. Additionally, a TODO comment has been added in `sync-readme.js` to address future tag support enhancements.
* feat(tag): Implement Boundary-First Tag Resolution for consistent tag handling
This commit introduces Boundary-First Tag Resolution in the task manager, ensuring consistent and deterministic tag handling across CLI and MCP. This change resolves potential race conditions and improves the reliability of tag-specific operations.
Additionally, the `expandTask` function has been updated to use the resolved tag when writing JSON, enhancing data integrity during task updates.
* chore(biome): formatting
* fix(expand-task): Update writeJSON call to use tag instead of resolvedTag
* fix(commands): Enhance complexity report path resolution and task initialization
`resolveComplexityReportPath` function to streamline output path generation based on tag context and user-defined output.
- Improved clarity and maintainability of command handling by centralizing path resolution logic.
* Fix: unknown currentTag
* fix(task-manager): Update generateTaskFiles calls to include tag and projectRoot parameters
This commit modifies the `moveTask` and `updateSubtaskById` functions to pass the `tag` and `projectRoot` parameters to the `generateTaskFiles` function. This ensures that task files are generated with the correct context when requested, enhancing consistency in task management operations.
* fix(commands): Refactor tag handling and complexity report path resolution
This commit updates the `registerCommands` function to utilize `taskMaster.getCurrentTag()` for consistent tag retrieval across command actions. It also enhances the initialization of `TaskMaster` by passing the tag directly, improving clarity and maintainability. The complexity report path resolution is streamlined to ensure correct file naming based on the current tag context.
* fix(task-master): Update complexity report path expectations in tests
This commit modifies the `initTaskMaster` test to expect a valid string for the complexity report path, ensuring it matches the expected file naming convention. This change enhances test reliability by verifying the correct output format when the path is generated.
* fix(set-task-status): Enhance logging and tag resolution in task status updates
This commit improves the logging output in the `registerSetTaskStatusTool` function to include the tag context when setting task statuses. It also updates the tag handling by resolving the tag using the `resolveTag` utility, ensuring that the correct tag is used when updating task statuses. Additionally, the `setTaskStatus` function is modified to remove the tag parameter from the `readJSON` and `writeJSON` calls, streamlining the data handling process.
* fix(commands, expand-task, task-manager): Add complexity report option and enhance path handling
This commit introduces a new `--complexity-report` option in the `registerCommands` function, allowing users to specify a custom path for the complexity report. The `expandTask` function is updated to accept the `complexityReportPath` from the context, ensuring it is utilized correctly during task expansion. Additionally, the `setTaskStatus` function now includes the `tag` parameter in the `readJSON` and `writeJSON` calls, improving task status updates with proper context. The `initTaskMaster` function is also modified to create parent directories for output paths, enhancing file handling robustness.
* fix(expand-task): Add complexityReportPath to context for task expansion tests
This commit updates the test for the `expandTask` function by adding the `complexityReportPath` to the context object. This change ensures that the complexity report path is correctly utilized in the test, aligning with recent enhancements to complexity report handling in the task manager.
* chore: implement suggested changes
* fix(parse-prd): Clarify tag parameter description for task organization
Updated the documentation for the `tag` parameter in the `parse-prd.js` file to provide a clearer context on its purpose for organizing tasks into separate task lists.
* Fix Inconsistent tag resolution pattern.
* fix: Enhance complexity report path handling with tag support
This commit updates various functions to incorporate the `tag` parameter when resolving complexity report paths. The `expandTaskDirect`, `resolveComplexityReportPath`, and related tools now utilize the current tag context, improving consistency in task management. Additionally, the complexity report path is now correctly passed through the context in the `expand-task` and `set-task-status` tools, ensuring accurate report retrieval based on the active tag.
* Updated the JSDoc for the `tag` parameter in the `show-task.js` file.
* Remove redundant comment on tag parameter in readJSON call
* Remove unused import for getTagAwareFilePath
* Add missed complexityReportPath to args for task expansion
* fix(tests): Enhance research tests with tag-aware functionality
This commit updates the `research.test.js` file to improve the testing of the `performResearch` function by incorporating tag-aware functionality. Key changes include mocking the `findProjectRoot` to return a valid path, enhancing the `ContextGatherer` and `FuzzyTaskSearch` mocks, and adding comprehensive tests for tag parameter handling in various scenarios. The tests now cover passing different tag values, ensuring correct behavior when tags are provided, undefined, or null, and validating the integration of tags in task discovery and context gathering processes.
* Remove unused import for
* fix: Refactor complexity report path handling and improve argument destructuring
This commit enhances the `expandTaskDirect` function by improving the destructuring of arguments for better readability. It also updates the `analyze.js` and `analyze-task-complexity.js` files to utilize the new `resolveComplexityReportOutputPath` function, ensuring tag-aware resolution of output paths. Additionally, logging has been added to provide clarity on the report path being used.
* test: Add complexity report tag isolation tests and improve path handling
This commit introduces a new test file for complexity report tag isolation, ensuring that different tags maintain separate complexity reports. It enhances the existing tests in `analyze-task-complexity.test.js` by updating expectations to use `expect.stringContaining` for file paths, improving robustness against path changes. The new tests cover various scenarios, including path resolution and report generation for both master and feature tags, ensuring no cross-tag contamination occurs.

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.

Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management
* docs: Update documentation and rules for tagged task lists system
- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.

* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo

* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command

- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly

- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management
* docs: Update documentation and rules for tagged task lists system
- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.

- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.

- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

fix(core): Implement Boundary-First Tag Resolution (#943)
* refactor(context): Standardize tag and projectRoot handling across all task tools
This commit unifies context management by adopting a boundary-first resolution strategy. All task-scoped tools now resolve `tag` and `projectRoot` at their entry point and forward these values to the underlying direct functions.
This approach centralizes context logic, ensuring consistent behavior and enhanced flexibility in multi-tag environments.
* fix(tag): Clean up tag handling in task functions and sync process
This commit refines the handling of the `tag` parameter across multiple functions, ensuring consistent context management. The `tag` is now passed more efficiently in `listTasksDirect`, `setTaskStatusDirect`, and `syncTasksToReadme`, improving clarity and reducing redundancy. Additionally, a TODO comment has been added in `sync-readme.js` to address future tag support enhancements.
* feat(tag): Implement Boundary-First Tag Resolution for consistent tag handling
This commit introduces Boundary-First Tag Resolution in the task manager, ensuring consistent and deterministic tag handling across CLI and MCP. This change resolves potential race conditions and improves the reliability of tag-specific operations.
Additionally, the `expandTask` function has been updated to use the resolved tag when writing JSON, enhancing data integrity during task updates.
* chore(biome): formatting
* fix(expand-task): Update writeJSON call to use tag instead of resolvedTag
* fix(commands): Enhance complexity report path resolution and task initialization
`resolveComplexityReportPath` function to streamline output path generation based on tag context and user-defined output.
- Improved clarity and maintainability of command handling by centralizing path resolution logic.
* Fix: unknown currentTag
* fix(task-manager): Update generateTaskFiles calls to include tag and projectRoot parameters
This commit modifies the `moveTask` and `updateSubtaskById` functions to pass the `tag` and `projectRoot` parameters to the `generateTaskFiles` function. This ensures that task files are generated with the correct context when requested, enhancing consistency in task management operations.
* fix(commands): Refactor tag handling and complexity report path resolution
This commit updates the `registerCommands` function to utilize `taskMaster.getCurrentTag()` for consistent tag retrieval across command actions. It also enhances the initialization of `TaskMaster` by passing the tag directly, improving clarity and maintainability. The complexity report path resolution is streamlined to ensure correct file naming based on the current tag context.
* fix(task-master): Update complexity report path expectations in tests
This commit modifies the `initTaskMaster` test to expect a valid string for the complexity report path, ensuring it matches the expected file naming convention. This change enhances test reliability by verifying the correct output format when the path is generated.
* fix(set-task-status): Enhance logging and tag resolution in task status updates
This commit improves the logging output in the `registerSetTaskStatusTool` function to include the tag context when setting task statuses. It also updates the tag handling by resolving the tag using the `resolveTag` utility, ensuring that the correct tag is used when updating task statuses. Additionally, the `setTaskStatus` function is modified to remove the tag parameter from the `readJSON` and `writeJSON` calls, streamlining the data handling process.
* fix(commands, expand-task, task-manager): Add complexity report option and enhance path handling
This commit introduces a new `--complexity-report` option in the `registerCommands` function, allowing users to specify a custom path for the complexity report. The `expandTask` function is updated to accept the `complexityReportPath` from the context, ensuring it is utilized correctly during task expansion. Additionally, the `setTaskStatus` function now includes the `tag` parameter in the `readJSON` and `writeJSON` calls, improving task status updates with proper context. The `initTaskMaster` function is also modified to create parent directories for output paths, enhancing file handling robustness.
* fix(expand-task): Add complexityReportPath to context for task expansion tests
This commit updates the test for the `expandTask` function by adding the `complexityReportPath` to the context object. This change ensures that the complexity report path is correctly utilized in the test, aligning with recent enhancements to complexity report handling in the task manager.
* chore: implement suggested changes
* fix(parse-prd): Clarify tag parameter description for task organization
Updated the documentation for the `tag` parameter in the `parse-prd.js` file to provide a clearer context on its purpose for organizing tasks into separate task lists.
* Fix Inconsistent tag resolution pattern.
* fix: Enhance complexity report path handling with tag support
This commit updates various functions to incorporate the `tag` parameter when resolving complexity report paths. The `expandTaskDirect`, `resolveComplexityReportPath`, and related tools now utilize the current tag context, improving consistency in task management. Additionally, the complexity report path is now correctly passed through the context in the `expand-task` and `set-task-status` tools, ensuring accurate report retrieval based on the active tag.
* Updated the JSDoc for the `tag` parameter in the `show-task.js` file.
* Remove redundant comment on tag parameter in readJSON call
* Remove unused import for getTagAwareFilePath
* Add missed complexityReportPath to args for task expansion
* fix(tests): Enhance research tests with tag-aware functionality
This commit updates the `research.test.js` file to improve the testing of the `performResearch` function by incorporating tag-aware functionality. Key changes include mocking the `findProjectRoot` to return a valid path, enhancing the `ContextGatherer` and `FuzzyTaskSearch` mocks, and adding comprehensive tests for tag parameter handling in various scenarios. The tests now cover passing different tag values, ensuring correct behavior when tags are provided, undefined, or null, and validating the integration of tags in task discovery and context gathering processes.

* fix: Refactor complexity report path handling and improve argument destructuring
This commit enhances the `expandTaskDirect` function by improving the destructuring of arguments for better readability. It also updates the `analyze.js` and `analyze-task-complexity.js` files to utilize the new `resolveComplexityReportOutputPath` function, ensuring tag-aware resolution of output paths. Additionally, logging has been added to provide clarity on the report path being used.
* test: Add complexity report tag isolation tests and improve path handling
This commit introduces a new test file for complexity report tag isolation, ensuring that different tags maintain separate complexity reports. It enhances the existing tests in `analyze-task-complexity.test.js` by updating expectations to use `expect.stringContaining` for file paths, improving robustness against path changes. The new tests cover various scenarios, including path resolution and report generation for both master and feature tags, ensuring no cross-tag contamination occurs.

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management
* docs: Update documentation and rules for tagged task lists system
- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management
* docs: Update documentation and rules for tagged task lists system
- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* fix(get-task): makes the projectRoot argument required to prevent errors when getting tasks.
* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management
* docs: Update documentation and rules for tagged task lists system
- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management
* docs: Update documentation and rules for tagged task lists system
- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management
* docs: Update documentation and rules for tagged task lists system
- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management
* docs: Update documentation and rules for tagged task lists system
- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management

- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context

- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.

* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects

* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* fix(get-task): makes the projectRoot argument required to prevent errors when getting tasks.
* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.

- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list

* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support

- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands

- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting

- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)

* feat(tags): Implement tagged task lists migration system (Part 1/2)
This commit introduces the foundational infrastructure for tagged task lists,
enabling multi-context task management without remote storage to prevent merge conflicts.
CORE ARCHITECTURE:
• Silent migration system transforms tasks.json from old format { "tasks": [...] }
to new tagged format { "master": { "tasks": [...] } }
• Tag resolution layer provides complete backward compatibility - existing code continues to work
• Automatic configuration and state management for seamless user experience
SILENT MIGRATION SYSTEM:
• Automatic detection and migration of legacy tasks.json format
• Complete project migration: tasks.json + config.json + state.json
• Transparent tag resolution returns old format to maintain compatibility
• Zero breaking changes - all existing functionality preserved
CONFIGURATION MANAGEMENT:
• Added global.defaultTag setting (defaults to 'master')
• New tags section with gitIntegration placeholders for future features
• Automatic config.json migration during first run
• Proper state.json creation with migration tracking
USER EXPERIENCE:
• Clean, one-time FYI notice after migration (no emojis, professional styling)
• Notice appears after 'Suggested Next Steps' and is tracked in state.json
• Silent operation - users unaware migration occurred unless explicitly shown
TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION:
• Enhanced readJSON() with automatic migration detection and processing
• New utility functions: getCurrentTag(), resolveTag(), getTasksForTag(), setTasksForTag()
• Complete migration orchestration via performCompleteTagMigration()
• Robust error handling and fallback mechanisms
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY:
• 100% backward compatibility maintained
• Existing CLI commands and MCP tools continue to work unchanged
• Legacy tasks.json format automatically upgraded on first read
• All existing workflows preserved
TESTING VERIFIED:
• Complete migration from legacy state works correctly
• Config.json properly updated with tagged system settings
• State.json created with correct initial values
• Migration notice system functions as designed
• All existing functionality continues to work normally
Part 2 will implement tag management commands (add-tag, use-tag, list-tags)
and MCP tool updates for full tagged task system functionality.
Related: Task 103 - Implement Tagged Task Lists System for Multi-Context Task Management
* docs: Update documentation and rules for tagged task lists system
- Updated task-structure.md with comprehensive tagged format explanation
- Updated all .cursor/rules/*.mdc files to reflect tagged system
- Completed subtask 103.16: Update Documentation for Tagged Task Lists System
* feat(mcp): Add tagInfo to responses and integrate ContextGatherer
Enhances the MCP server to include 'tagInfo' (currentTag, availableTags) in all tool responses, providing better client-side context.
- Introduces a new 'ContextGatherer' utility to standardize the collection of file, task, and project context for AI-powered commands. This refactors several task-manager modules ('expand-task', 'research', 'update-task', etc.) to use the new utility.
- Fixes an issue in 'get-task' and 'get-tasks' MCP tools where the 'projectRoot' was not being passed correctly, preventing tag information from being included in their responses.
- Adds subtask '103.17' to track the implementation of the task template importing feature.
- Updates documentation ('.cursor/rules', 'docs/') to align with the new tagged task system and context gatherer logic.
* fix: include tagInfo in AI service responses for MCP tools
- Update all core functions that call AI services to extract and return tagInfo
- Update all direct functions to include tagInfo in MCP response data
- Fixes issue where add_task, expand_task, and other AI commands were not including current tag and available tags information
- tagInfo includes currentTag from state.json and availableTags list
- Ensures tagged task lists system information is properly propagated through the full chain: AI service -> core function -> direct function -> MCP client
* fix(move-task): Update move functionality for tagged task system compatibility
- incorporate GitHub commit fixes and resolve readJSON data handling
* feat(tagged-tasks): Complete core tag management system implementation
- Implements comprehensive tagged task lists system for multi-context task management including core tag management functions (Task 103.11), MCP integration updates, and foundational infrastructure for tagged task operations. Features tag CRUD operations, validation, metadata tracking, deep task copying, and full backward compatibility.
* fix(core): Fixed move-task.js writing _rawTaggedData directly, updated writeJSON to filter tag fields, fixed CLI move command missing projectRoot, added ensureTagMetadata utility
* fix(tasks): ensure list tasks triggers silent migration if necessary.
* feat(tags): Complete show and add-task command tag support
- show command: Added --tag flag, fixed projectRoot passing to UI functions
- add-task command: Already had proper tag support and projectRoot handling
- Both commands now work correctly with tagged task lists system
- Migration logic works properly when viewing and adding tasks
- Updated subtask 103.5 with progress on high-priority command fixes
* fix(tags): Clean up rogue created properties and fix taskCount calculation
- Enhanced writeJSON to automatically filter rogue created/description properties from tag objects
- Fixed tags command error by making taskCount calculation dynamic instead of hardcoded
- Cleaned up existing rogue created property in master tag through forced write operation
- All created properties now properly located in metadata objects only
- Tags command working perfectly with proper task count display
- Data integrity maintained with automatic cleanup during write operations
* fix(tags): Resolve critical tag deletion and migration notice bugs
Major Issues Fixed:
1. Tag Deletion Bug: Fixed critical issue where creating subtasks would delete other tags
- Root cause: writeJSON function wasn't accepting projectRoot/tag parameters
- Fixed writeJSON signature and logic to handle tagged data structure
- Added proper merging of resolved tag data back into full tagged structure
2. Persistent Migration Notice: Fixed FYI notice showing after every command
- Root cause: markMigrationForNotice was resetting migrationNoticeShown to false
- Fixed migration logic to only trigger on actual legacy->tagged migrations
- Added proper _rawTaggedData checks to prevent false migration detection
3. Data Corruption Prevention: Enhanced data integrity safeguards
- Fixed writeJSON to filter out internal properties
- Added automatic cleanup of rogue properties
- Improved hasTaggedStructure detection logic
Commands Fixed: add-subtask, remove-subtask, and all commands now preserve tags correctly
* fix(tags): Resolve tag deletion bug in remove-task command
Refactored the core 'removeTask' function to be fully tag-aware, preventing data corruption.
- The function now correctly reads the full tagged data structure by prioritizing '_rawTaggedData' instead of operating on a resolved single-tag view.
- All subsequent operations (task removal, dependency cleanup, file writing) now correctly reference the full multi-tag data object, preserving the integrity of 'tasks.json'.
- This resolves the critical bug where removing a task would delete all other tags.
* fix(tasks): Ensure new task IDs are sequential within the target tag
Modified the ID generation logic in 'add-task.js' to calculate the next task ID based on the highest ID within the specified tag, rather than globally across all tags.
This fixes a critical bug where creating a task in a new tag would result in a high, non-sequential ID, such as ID 105 for the first task in a tag.
* fix(commands): Add missing context parameters to dependency and remove-subtask commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to all dependency commands
- Add projectRoot and tag context to remove-subtask command
- Add --tag option to remove-subtask command
- Fixes critical bug where remove-subtask was deleting other tags due to missing context
- All dependency and subtask commands now properly handle tagged task lists
* feat(tags): Add --tag flag support to core commands for multi-context task management
- parse-prd now supports creating tasks in specific contexts
- Fixed tag preservation logic to prevent data loss
- analyze-complexity generates tag-specific reports
- Non-existent tags created automatically
- Enables rapid prototyping and parallel development workflows
* feat(tags): Complete tagged task lists system with enhanced use-tag command
- Multi-context task management with full CLI support
- Enhanced use-tag command shows next available task after switching
- Universal --tag flag support across all commands
- Seamless migration with zero disruption
- Complete tag management suite (add, delete, rename, copy, list)
- Smart confirmation logic and data integrity protection
- State management and configuration integration
- Real-world use cases for teams, features, and releases
* feat(tags): Complete tag support for remaining CLI commands
- Add --tag flag to update, move, and set-status commands
- Ensure all task operation commands now support tag context
- Fix missing tag context passing to core functions
- Complete comprehensive tag-aware command coverage
* feat(ui): add tag indicator to all CLI commands
- shows 🏷️ tag: tagname for complete context visibility across 15+ commands
* fix(ui): resolve dependency 'Not found' issue when filtering
- now correctly displays dependencies that exist but are filtered out of view
* feat(research): Add comprehensive AI-powered research command with interactive follow-ups, save functionality, intelligent context gathering, fuzzy task discovery, multi-source context support, enhanced display with syntax highlighting, clean inquirer menus, comprehensive help, and MCP integration with saveTo parameter
* feat(tags): Implement full MCP support for Tagged Task Lists and update-task append mode
* chore: task management
* feat(research): Enhance research command with follow-up menu, save functionality, and fix ContextGatherer token counting
* feat(git-workflow): Add automatic git branch-tag integration
- Implement automatic tag creation when switching to new git branches
- Add branch-tag mapping system for seamless context switching
- Enable auto-switch of task contexts based on current git branch
- Provide isolated task contexts per branch to prevent merge conflicts
- Add configuration support for enabling/disabling git workflow features
- Fix ES module compatibility issues in git-utils module
- Maintain zero migration impact with automatic 'master' tag creation
- Support parallel development with branch-specific task contexts
The git workflow system automatically detects branch changes and creates corresponding empty task tags, enabling developers to maintain separate task contexts for different features/branches while preventing task-related merge conflicts during collaborative development.
Resolves git workflow integration requirements for multi-context development.
* feat(git-workflow): Simplify git integration with --from-branch option
- Remove automatic git workflow and branch-tag switching - we are not ready for it yet
- Add --from-branch option to add-tag command for manual tag creation from git branch
- Remove git workflow configuration from config.json and assets
- Disable automatic tag switching functions in git-utils.js
- Add createTagFromBranch function for branch-based tag creation
- Support both CLI and MCP interfaces for --from-branch functionality
- Fix ES module imports in git-utils.js and utils.js
- Maintain user control over tag contexts without forced automation
The simplified approach allows users to create tags from their current git branch when desired, without the complexity and rigidity of automatic branch-tag synchronization. Users maintain full control over their tag contexts while having convenient tools for git-based workflows when needed.
* docs: Update rule files to reflect simplified git integration approach
- Remove automatic git workflow features, update to manual --from-branch option, change Part 2 references to completed status
* fix(commands): Fix add-tag --from-branch requiring tagName argument
- Made tagName optional when using --from-branch - Added validation for either tagName or --from-branch
- Fixes 'missing required argument' error with --from-branch option
* fix(mcp): Prevent tag deletion on subtask update
Adds a safety net to the writeJSON utility to prevent data loss when updating subtasks via the MCP server.
The MCP process was inadvertently causing the _rawTaggedData property, which holds the complete multi-tag structure, to be lost. When writeJSON received the data for only a single tag, it would overwrite the entire tasks.json file, deleting all other tags.
This fix makes writeJSON more robust. If it receives data that looks like a single, resolved tag without the complete structure, it re-reads the full tasks.json file from disk. It then carefully merges the updated data back into the correct tag within the full structure, preserving all other tags.
* fix: resolve all remaining test failures and improve test reliability
- Fix clear-subtasks test by implementing deep copy of mock data to prevent mutation issues between tests
- Fix add-task test by uncommenting and properly configuring generateTaskFiles call with correct parameters
- Fix analyze-task-complexity tests by properly mocking fs.writeFileSync with shared mock function
- Update test expectations to match actual function signatures and data structures
- Improve mock setup consistency across all test suites
- Ensure all tests now pass (329 total: 318 passed, 11 skipped, 0 failed)
* chore: task management
