How does Task Prioritizer handle complex dependencies?

The skill maps relationships between all tasks to identify 'blocking' items and the 'critical path,' ensuring that prerequisite work is always completed before dependent tasks begin.

Can it help me work faster by identifying parallel tasks?

Yes. One of the core outputs is a 'Parallel Opportunities' list, which highlights tasks that can be worked on at the same time without interfering with one another.

What prioritization criteria does the skill use?

It evaluates tasks based on four primary pillars: dependencies (blocking vs. independent), business value (user impact), urgency (immediate vs. deferrable), and technical risk.

What format does the prioritized output take?

It provides a standardized Markdown report including Priority Groups (P0-P3), a phased Execution Order, a Critical Path map, and a detailed Rationale for the rankings.

Productivity & Workflow

Organizes and ranks development tasks using dependencies, business value, and resource constraints to optimize project execution.

About

The Task Prioritizer skill transforms unorganized task lists into structured, executable roadmaps by analyzing complex dependencies and assessing business impact. It helps development teams identify the critical path, uncover parallel work opportunities, and categorize tasks into a clear hierarchy from P0 (Critical) to P3 (Low). Whether you are managing a sprint or launching a new feature, this skill ensures that resources are allocated efficiently and that high-value, blocking tasks are addressed first to prevent project bottlenecks.

Key Features

Intelligent Dependency Mapping: Identifies blocking tasks and critical paths to ensure logical execution.
Multi-Tiered Categorization: Assigns P0-P3 priority levels for clear visibility into urgency and importance.
0 GitHub stars
Value-Based Ranking: Prioritizes features based on business impact, user value, and strategic importance.
Parallel Opportunity Identification: Spotlights independent tasks that can be performed simultaneously to accelerate delivery.
Resource-Aware Planning: Considers agent capacity and constraints to create realistic project schedules.

Use Cases

Project Kickoff: Mapping out foundation tasks and high-risk items at the start of a new software project.
Workflow Optimization: Re-adjusting priorities when project goals shift or resource availability changes mid-development.
Sprint Planning: Automatically organizing a backlog into a ranked execution list for the next development cycle.
