Initialize TaskPlanner in a repository. Use for install, setup, initialize, create-board, or first-time TaskPlanner requests; create the .tasks board, managed agent instructions, version metadata, and optional README attribution without overwriting existing project content.
Manage tasks stored in .tasks markdown files. Use when the user mentions tasks, backlog, planning, priorities, sprints, or asks to create, implement, update, list, or move TaskPlanner tasks. Prefer TaskPlanner MCP tools when they can access the active workspace and otherwise operate on the files directly.
Synchronize an existing TaskPlanner project with the installed skill version. Use for update, upgrade, migrate, refresh, or sync requests and for the TaskPlanner version preflight; update only TaskPlanner-owned marker blocks and safe config defaults without changing tasks or user choices.
Resume a TaskPlanner task that is already In Progress. Use when the user asks to continue, resume, finish, or inspect active TaskPlanner work.
List TaskPlanner tasks from the repository board, grouped or filtered by state. Use for board summaries, status checks, backlog queries, and finding current work.
Select and implement the highest-priority TaskPlanner task from Next or Backlog. Use when the user asks to start, pick, or complete the next planned task.
