Task List Skill

Track multi-step tasks to ensure nothing is forgotten.

When to use

  • The request requires 4 or more distinct steps
  • You need to perform several operations in sequence

Instructions

  1. Add tasks before starting multi-step work.
  2. Mark exactly one task in progress while working.
  3. Update task status as each step completes.
  4. Keep task text concise and action-oriented.

How to use

Use the tasks tool directly. Do NOT use run_code, execute, or write_file for task management.

1. Add tasks at the start

tasks(operation="add_multiple", content="Step one; Step two; Step three")

This clears any previous tasks. Each request starts fresh.

Examples

tasks(operation="add_multiple", content="Inspect repo; Run tests; Summarize findings")
tasks(operation="start", task_id="task_1")
tasks(operation="complete", task_id="task_1")

2. Start a task before working on it

tasks(operation="start", task_id="task_1")

3. Complete a task when done

tasks(operation="complete", task_id="task_1")

4. Check what's next

tasks(operation="next")

All operations
