* 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.
* 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)

Adds a new CLI command and MCP tool to reorganize tasks and subtasks within the hierarchy. Features include:
- Moving tasks between different positions in the task list
- Converting tasks to subtasks and vice versa
- Moving subtasks between parents
- Moving multiple tasks at once with comma-separated IDs
- Creating placeholder tasks when moving to new IDs
- Validation to prevent accidental data loss
This is particularly useful for resolving merge conflicts when multiple team members create tasks on different branches.
Enhance analyze-complexity to support analyzing specific tasks by ID or range:
- Add --id option for comma-separated task IDs
- Add --from/--to options for analyzing tasks within a range
- Implement intelligent merging with existing reports
- Update CLI, MCP tools, and direct functions for consistent support
- Add changeset documenting the feature
This commit implements automatic tasks.json file creation when it doesn't exist:
- When tasks.json is missing or invalid, create a new one with { tasks: [] }
- Allows adding tasks immediately after initializing a project without parsing a PRD
- Replaces error with informative feedback about file creation
- Enables smoother workflow for new projects or directories
This change improves user experience by removing the requirement to parse a PRD
before adding the first task to a newly initialized project. Closes#494
This commit significantly improves the functionality by implementing
fuzzy semantic search to find contextually relevant dependencies:
- Add Fuse.js for powerful fuzzy search capability with weighted multi-field matching
- Implement score-based relevance ranking with high/medium relevance tiers
- Enhance context generation to include detailed information about similar tasks
- Fix context shadowing issue that prevented detailed task information from
reaching the AI model
- Add informative CLI output showing semantic search results and dependency patterns
- Improve formatting of dependency information in prompts with task titles
The result is that newly created tasks are automatically placed within the correct
dependency structure without manual intervention, with the AI having much better
context about which tasks are most relevant to the new one being created.
This significantly improves the user experience by reducing the need to manually
update task dependencies after creation, all without increasing token usage or costs.
* Fix: Correct version resolution for banner and update check
Resolves issues where the tool's version was displayed as 'unknown'.
- Modified 'displayBanner' in 'ui.js' and 'checkForUpdate' in 'commands.js' to read package.json relative to their own script locations using import.meta.url.
- This ensures the correct local version is identified for both the main banner display and the update notification mechanism.
- Restored a missing closing brace in 'ui.js' to fix a SyntaxError.

* chore: rename log level environment variable to `TASKMASTER_LOG_LEVEL`
### CHANGES
- Update environment variable from `LOG_LEVEL` to `TASKMASTER_LOG_LEVEL`.
- Reflect change in documentation for clarity.
- Adjust variable name in script and test files.
- Maintain default log level as `info`.
* fix: add changeset
* chore: rename `LOG_LEVEL` to `TASKMASTER_LOG_LEVEL` for consistency
### CHANGES
- Update environment variable name to `TASKMASTER_LOG_LEVEL` in documentation.
- Reflect rename in configuration rules for clarity.
- Maintain consistency across project configuration settings.
This commit introduces several improvements to AI interactions and
task management functionalities:
- AI Provider Enhancements (for Telemetry & Robustness):
- :
- Added a check in to ensure
is a string, throwing an error if not. This prevents downstream
errors (e.g., in ).
- , , :
- Standardized return structures for their respective
and functions to consistently include /
and fields. This aligns them with other providers (like
Anthropic, Google, Perplexity) for consistent telemetry data
collection, as part of implementing subtask 77.14 and similar work.
- Task Expansion ():
- Updated to be more explicit
about using an empty array for empty to
better guide AI output.
- Implemented a pre-emptive cleanup step in
to replace malformed with
before JSON parsing. This improves resilience to AI output quirks,
particularly observed with Perplexity.
- Adjusts issue in commands.js where successfulRemovals would be undefined. It's properly invoked from the result variable now.
- Updates supported models for Gemini
These changes address issues observed during E2E tests, enhance the
reliability of AI-driven task analysis and expansion, and promote
consistent telemetry data across multiple AI providers.
This commit updates to more robustly handle responses from .
Previously, the module strictly expected the AI-generated object to be nested under . This change ensures that it now first checks if itself contains the expected task data object, and then falls back to checking .
This enhancement increases compatibility with varying AI provider response structures, similar to the improvements recently made in .
