Task Breakdown Specialist

About

The Task Breakdown skill transforms ambiguous or large-scale development requests into organized, manageable execution plans. It meticulously analyzes project architecture using LSP and exploration tools, identifies dependencies, and generates a structured YAML manifest within the .claude/tasks/ directory. By enforcing granular subtasks and providing clear execution prompts for each step, it ensures that subsequent coding phases are systematic, verifiable, and less prone to errors or scope creep.
