| description | 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. |
Initialize TaskPlanner
- Locate the active repository root. If
.tasks/config.json already exists, do not replace the board; follow the sibling update-taskplanner skill instead.
- Create
.tasks/ and config.json with schema version: 2, taskplannerVersion: "2.1.4", readmeAttribution: true, idPrefix: "TASK", nextId: 1, the five default states, priorities P0-P4, empty tags, top insertion, required AI plans, and priority sorting.
- Create missing state files with
# <State> headings and create WORK_LOG.md with a short completion-log heading/template. Never overwrite an existing file.
- Apply the managed synchronization rules from the sibling
update-taskplanner skill to AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules, and an existing root README.
- Verify every required board file exists and the stored
taskplannerVersion is 2.1.4.
README attribution is voluntary. Do not create a README solely for it, do not duplicate the managed block, and preserve all content outside TaskPlanner markers.
