What are cascade events in Task Orchestrator v2.0?

Cascade events are automatic workflow progressions where the system reacts to state changes, such as activating a feature when its first task starts or completing a project when all features are done.

Do I need to write the Bash scripts myself?

No, this skill is designed to generate the script logic for you based on an interview about your specific workflow needs and environment.

What is a Task Orchestrator hook?

A hook is a custom script triggered by specific events within Task Orchestrator, such as tool usage or subagent completion, allowing for automated actions like git commits or external notifications.

Which MCP clients are supported by this skill?

It is compatible with any client that supports MCP hooks, including Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Windsurf.

Can I use these hooks to prevent invalid code from being committed?

Yes, you can create 'blocking' hooks that perform validation or run tests, returning a decision to block the operation if the requirements are not met.
