+# Task Master
+
+### by [@eyaltoledano](https://x.com/eyaltoledano)
+
+A task management system for AI-driven development with Claude, designed to work seamlessly with Cursor AI.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Node.js 14.0.0 or higher
+- Anthropic API key (Claude API)
+- Anthropic SDK version 0.39.0 or higher
+- OpenAI SDK (for Perplexity API integration, optional)
+
+## Configuration
+
+Taskmaster uses two primary configuration methods:
+
+1.  **`.taskmasterconfig` File (Project Root)**
+
+    - Stores most settings: AI model selections (main, research, fallback), parameters (max tokens, temperature), logging level, default priority/subtasks, project name.
+    - **Created and managed using `task-master models --setup` CLI command or the `models` MCP tool.**
+    - Do not edit manually unless you know what you are doing.
+
+2.  **Environment Variables (`.env` file or MCP `env` block)**
+    - Used **only** for sensitive **API Keys** (e.g., `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, `PERPLEXITY_API_KEY`, etc.) and specific endpoints (like `OLLAMA_BASE_URL`).
+    - **For CLI:** Place keys in a `.env` file in your project root.
+    - **For MCP/Cursor:** Place keys in the `env` section of your `.cursor/mcp.json` (or other MCP config according to the AI IDE or client you use) file under the `taskmaster-ai` server definition.
+
+**Important:** Settings like model choices, max tokens, temperature, and log level are **no longer configured via environment variables.** Use the `task-master models` command or tool.
+
+See the [Configuration Guide](docs/configuration.md) for full details.
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+# Install globally
+npm install -g task-master-ai
+
+# OR install locally within your project
+npm install task-master-ai
+```
+
+### Initialize a new project
+
+```bash
+# If installed globally
+task-master init
+
+# If installed locally
+npx task-master init
+```
+
+This will prompt you for project details and set up a new project with the necessary files and structure.
+
+### Important Notes
+
+1. **ES Modules Configuration:**
+
+   - This project uses ES Modules (ESM) instead of CommonJS.
+   - This is set via `"type": "module"` in your package.json.
+   - Use `import/export` syntax instead of `require()`.
+   - Files should use `.js` or `.mjs` extensions.
+   - To use a CommonJS module, either:
+     - Rename it with `.cjs` extension
+     - Use `await import()` for dynamic imports
+   - If you need CommonJS throughout your project, remove `"type": "module"` from package.json, but Task Master scripts expect ESM.
+
+2. The Anthropic SDK version should be 0.39.0 or higher.
+
+## Quick Start with Global Commands
+
+After installing the package globally, you can use these CLI commands from any directory:
+
+```bash
+# Initialize a new project
+task-master init
+
+# Parse a PRD and generate tasks
+task-master parse-prd your-prd.txt
+
+# List all tasks
+task-master list
+
+# Show the next task to work on
+task-master next
+
+# Generate task files
+task-master generate
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### If `task-master init` doesn't respond:
+
+Try running it with Node directly:
+
+```bash
+node node_modules/claude-task-master/scripts/init.js
+```
+
+Or clone the repository and run:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/eyaltoledano/claude-task-master.git
+cd claude-task-master
+node scripts/init.js
+```
+
+## Task Structure
+
+Tasks in tasks.json have the following structure:
+
+- `id`: Unique identifier for the task (Example: `1`)
+- `title`: Brief, descriptive title of the task (Example: `"Initialize Repo"`)
+- `description`: Concise description of what the task involves (Example: `"Create a new repository, set up initial structure."`)
+- `status`: Current state of the task (Example: `"pending"`, `"done"`, `"deferred"`)
+- `dependencies`: IDs of tasks that must be completed before this task (Example: `[1, 2]`)
+  - Dependencies are displayed with status indicators (✅ for completed, ⏱️ for pending)
+  - This helps quickly identify which prerequisite tasks are blocking work
+- `priority`: Importance level of the task (Example: `"high"`, `"medium"`, `"low"`)
+- `details`: In-depth implementation instructions (Example: `"Use GitHub client ID/secret, handle callback, set session token."`)
+- `testStrategy`: Verification approach (Example: `"Deploy and call endpoint to confirm 'Hello World' response."`)
+- `subtasks`: List of smaller, more specific tasks that make up the main task (Example: `[{"id": 1, "title": "Configure OAuth", ...}]`)
+
+## Integrating with Cursor AI
+
+Claude Task Master is designed to work seamlessly with [Cursor AI](https://www.cursor.so/), providing a structured workflow for AI-driven development.
+
+### Setup with Cursor
+
+1. After initializing your project, open it in Cursor
+2. The `.cursor/rules/dev_workflow.mdc` file is automatically loaded by Cursor, providing the AI with knowledge about the task management system
+3. Place your PRD document in the `scripts/` directory (e.g., `scripts/prd.txt`)
+4. Open Cursor's AI chat and switch to Agent mode
+
+### Setting up MCP in Cursor
+
+To enable enhanced task management capabilities directly within Cursor using the Model Control Protocol (MCP):
+
+1. Go to Cursor settings
+2. Navigate to the MCP section
+3. Click on "Add New MCP Server"
+4. Configure with the following details:
+   - Name: "Task Master"
+   - Type: "Command"
+   - Command: "npx -y task-master-ai"
+5. Save the settings
+
+Once configured, you can interact with Task Master's task management commands directly through Cursor's interface, providing a more integrated experience.
+
+### Initial Task Generation
+
+In Cursor's AI chat, instruct the agent to generate tasks from your PRD:
+
+```
+Please use the task-master parse-prd command to generate tasks from my PRD. The PRD is located at scripts/prd.txt.
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master parse-prd scripts/prd.txt
+```
+
+This will:
+
+- Parse your PRD document
+- Generate a structured `tasks.json` file with tasks, dependencies, priorities, and test strategies
+- The agent will understand this process due to the Cursor rules
+
+### Generate Individual Task Files
+
+Next, ask the agent to generate individual task files:
+
+```
+Please generate individual task files from tasks.json
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master generate
+```
+
+This creates individual task files in the `tasks/` directory (e.g., `task_001.txt`, `task_002.txt`), making it easier to reference specific tasks.
+
+## AI-Driven Development Workflow
+
+The Cursor agent is pre-configured (via the rules file) to follow this workflow:
+
+### 1. Task Discovery and Selection
+
+Ask the agent to list available tasks:
+
+```
+What tasks are available to work on next?
+```
+
+The agent will:
+
+- Run `task-master list` to see all tasks
+- Run `task-master next` to determine the next task to work on
+- Analyze dependencies to determine which tasks are ready to be worked on
+- Prioritize tasks based on priority level and ID order
+- Suggest the next task(s) to implement
+
+### 2. Task Implementation
+
+When implementing a task, the agent will:
+
+- Reference the task's details section for implementation specifics
+- Consider dependencies on previous tasks
+- Follow the project's coding standards
+- Create appropriate tests based on the task's testStrategy
+
+You can ask:
+
+```
+Let's implement task 3. What does it involve?
+```
+
+### 3. Task Verification
+
+Before marking a task as complete, verify it according to:
+
+- The task's specified testStrategy
+- Any automated tests in the codebase
+- Manual verification if required
+
+### 4. Task Completion
+
+When a task is completed, tell the agent:
+
+```
+Task 3 is now complete. Please update its status.
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master set-status --id=3 --status=done
+```
+
+### 5. Handling Implementation Drift
+
+If during implementation, you discover that:
+
+- The current approach differs significantly from what was planned
+- Future tasks need to be modified due to current implementation choices
+- New dependencies or requirements have emerged
+
+Tell the agent:
+
+```
+We've changed our approach. We're now using Express instead of Fastify. Please update all future tasks to reflect this change.
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master update --from=4 --prompt="Now we are using Express instead of Fastify."
+```
+
+This will rewrite or re-scope subsequent tasks in tasks.json while preserving completed work.
+
+### 6. Breaking Down Complex Tasks
+
+For complex tasks that need more granularity:
+
+```
+Task 5 seems complex. Can you break it down into subtasks?
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master expand --id=5 --num=3
+```
+
+You can provide additional context:
+
+```
+Please break down task 5 with a focus on security considerations.
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master expand --id=5 --prompt="Focus on security aspects"
+```
+
+You can also expand all pending tasks:
+
+```
+Please break down all pending tasks into subtasks.
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master expand --all
+```
+
+For research-backed subtask generation using Perplexity AI:
+
+```
+Please break down task 5 using research-backed generation.
+```
+
+The agent will execute:
+
+```bash
+task-master expand --id=5 --research
+```
+
+## Command Reference
+
+Here's a comprehensive reference of all available commands:
+
+### Parse PRD
+
+```bash

+
+# Add a task with priority
+task-master add-task --prompt="Description" --priority=high
+```
+
+## Feature Details
+
+### Analyzing Task Complexity
+
+The `analyze-complexity` command:
+
+- Analyzes each task using AI to assess its complexity on a scale of 1-10
+- Recommends optimal number of subtasks based on configured DEFAULT_SUBTASKS
+- Generates tailored prompts for expanding each task
+- Creates a comprehensive JSON report with ready-to-use commands
+- Saves the report to scripts/task-complexity-report.json by default
+
+The generated report contains:
+
+- Complexity analysis for each task (scored 1-10)
+- Recommended number of subtasks based on complexity
+- AI-generated expansion prompts customized for each task
+- Ready-to-run expansion commands directly within each task analysis
+
+### Viewing Complexity Report
+
+The `complexity-report` command:
+
+- Displays a formatted, easy-to-read version of the complexity analysis report
+- Shows tasks organized by complexity score (highest to lowest)
+- Provides complexity distribution statistics (low, medium, high)
+- Highlights tasks recommended for expansion based on threshold score
+- Includes ready-to-use expansion commands for each complex task
+- If no report exists, offers to generate one on the spot
+
+### Smart Task Expansion
+
+The `expand` command automatically checks for and uses the complexity report:
+
+When a complexity report exists:
+
+- Tasks are automatically expanded using the recommended subtask count and prompts
+- When expanding all tasks, they're processed in order of complexity (highest first)
+- Research-backed generation is preserved from the complexity analysis
+- You can still override recommendations with explicit command-line options
+
+Example workflow:
+
+```bash
+# Generate the complexity analysis report with research capabilities
+task-master analyze-complexity --research
+
+# Review the report in a readable format
+task-master complexity-report
+
+# Expand tasks using the optimized recommendations
+task-master expand --id=8
+# or expand all tasks
+task-master expand --all
+```
+
+### Finding the Next Task
+
+The `next` command:
+
+- Identifies tasks that are pending/in-progress and have all dependencies satisfied
+- Prioritizes tasks by priority level, dependency count, and task ID
+- Displays comprehensive information about the selected task:
+  - Basic task details (ID, title, priority, dependencies)
+  - Implementation details
+  - Subtasks (if they exist)
+- Provides contextual suggested actions:
+  - Command to mark the task as in-progress
+  - Command to mark the task as done
+  - Commands for working with subtasks
+
+### Viewing Specific Task Details
+
+The `show` command:
+
+- Displays comprehensive details about a specific task or subtask
+- Shows task status, priority, dependencies, and detailed implementation notes
+- For parent tasks, displays all subtasks and their status
+- For subtasks, shows parent task relationship
+- Provides contextual action suggestions based on the task's state
+- Works with both regular tasks and subtasks (using the format taskId.subtaskId)
+
+## Best Practices for AI-Driven Development
+
+1. **Start with a detailed PRD**: The more detailed your PRD, the better the generated tasks will be.
+
+2. **Review generated tasks**: After parsing the PRD, review the tasks to ensure they make sense and have appropriate dependencies.
+
+3. **Analyze task complexity**: Use the complexity analysis feature to identify which tasks should be broken down further.
+
+4. **Follow the dependency chain**: Always respect task dependencies - the Cursor agent will help with this.
+
+5. **Update as you go**: If your implementation diverges from the plan, use the update command to keep future tasks aligned with your current approach.
+
+6. **Break down complex tasks**: Use the expand command to break down complex tasks into manageable subtasks.
+
+7. **Regenerate task files**: After any updates to tasks.json, regenerate the task files to keep them in sync.
+
+8. **Communicate context to the agent**: When asking the Cursor agent to help with a task, provide context about what you're trying to achieve.
+
+9. **Validate dependencies**: Periodically run the validate-dependencies command to check for invalid or circular dependencies.
+
