How does the Task Generator trigger?

The skill typically triggers after you complete a specification via ExitSpecMode or when you explicitly request a task list from a plan or PRD.

What is the two-phase generation process?

First, the skill generates 5-7 high-level parent tasks for your review. Once you confirm by saying 'Go', it proceeds to break those down into specific, actionable sub-tasks.

Does it include testing in the task lists?

Yes, the skill is designed to identify both source files and their corresponding test files, ensuring that unit testing is a core part of the generated workflow.

Where are the task lists saved?

All task lists are automatically saved as Markdown files within a `/tasks/` directory at the root of your project for easy version control.
