When should I use TodoWrite Orchestration?

It is best used for complex workflows with 5 or more phases or any process expected to take longer than 10 minutes where real-time visibility is required.

How does this help with iteration loop tracking?

It provides patterns to create individual tasks for each iteration, allowing you to see exactly how many loops are completed versus the maximum limit.

Does this improve Claude's performance?

While it doesn't change underlying speed, it improves reliability and the user experience by preventing opaque 'black box' behavior during long tasks.

Can I add tasks dynamically during a workflow?

Yes, the skill includes specific patterns for adding newly discovered tasks during execution without breaking the existing tracking structure.
