SKILL.md

Task Manager

SQLite-backed task management at ~/workspace/data/tasks.db.

Status Legend

Mark Status Meaning
[~] BACKLOG Not ready, waiting to be prioritized
[ ] READY Actionable now
[*] IN-PROGRESS Currently working
[x] COMPLETED Done
[!] BLOCKED Cannot proceed (has dependencies)

CLI Commands

All commands use: bun ~/workspace/skills/task-manager/scripts/db-tasks.js

List Tasks

bun ~/workspace/skills/task-manager/scripts/db-tasks.js list [filter]

Filters: backlog, ready, in-progress, completed, blocked, all (default)

Add Task

bun ~/workspace/skills/task-manager/scripts/db-tasks.js add "<task description>" [backlog|ready]

Status defaults to backlog (recommended for new tasks).

Update Task Status

bun ~/workspace/skills/task-manager/scripts/db-tasks.js update "<pattern>" <status>

Statuses: backlog, ready, in-progress, completed, blocked

Complete Task

bun ~/workspace/skills/task-manager/scripts/db-tasks.js complete "<pattern>"

Marks matching task as completed.

Delete Task

bun ~/workspace/skills/task-manager/scripts/db-tasks.js delete "<pattern>"

Count Tasks

bun ~/workspace/skills/task-manager/scripts/db-tasks.js count

Returns: Backlog: N | Ready: N | In Progress: N | Completed: N | Blocked: N

Heartbeat Integration

  1. Run list ready to get actionable tasks
  2. Research the task before starting (use documentation, search, or browser automation as needed)
  3. If unclear or missing prerequisites: update "<task>" blocked and add a work note explaining why
  4. If clear: update to in-progress when starting
  5. On success: complete "<task>"
  6. On failure: update "<task>" blocked

Architecture

  • Database: ~/workspace/data/tasks.db (SQLite with WAL mode)
  • CLI: skills/task-manager/scripts/db-tasks.js
  • Dashboard API: moltboard/src/app/api/tasks/route.ts
