Task List Management

Guidelines for creating and managing task lists in markdown files to track project progress

Task List Creation

1. Create task lists in a markdown file (in the project root):

   • Use TASKS.md or a descriptive name relevant to the feature (e.g., ASSISTANT_CHAT.md)
   • Include a clear title and description of the feature being implemented

2. Structure the file with these sections:

   # Feature Name Implementation
   
   Brief description of the feature and its purpose.
   
   ## Completed Tasks
   
   - [x] Task 1 that has been completed
   - [x] Task 2 that has been completed
   
   ## In Progress Tasks
   
   - [ ] Task 3 currently being worked on
   - [ ] Task 4 to be completed soon
   
   ## Future Tasks
   
   - [ ] Task 5 planned for future implementation
   - [ ] Task 6 planned for future implementation
   
   ## Implementation Plan
   
   Detailed description of how the feature will be implemented.
   
   ### Relevant Files
   
   - path/to/file1.ts - Description of purpose
   - path/to/file2.ts - Description of purpose
   

Task List Maintenance

1. Update the task list as you progress:

   • Mark tasks as completed by changing [ ] to [x]
   • Add new tasks as they are identified
   • Move tasks between sections as appropriate

2. Keep "Relevant Files" section updated with:

   • File paths that have been created or modified
   • Brief descriptions of each file's purpose
   • Status indicators (e.g., ✅) for completed components

3. Add implementation details:

   • Architecture decisions
   • Data flow descriptions
   • Technical components needed
   • Environment configuration

AI Instructions

When working with task lists, the AI should:

1. Regularly update the task list file after implementing significant components
2. Mark completed tasks with [x] when finished
3. Add new tasks discovered during implementation
4. Maintain the "Relevant Files" section with accurate file paths and descriptions
5. Document implementation details, especially for complex features
6. When implementing tasks one by one, first check which task to implement next
7. After implementing a task, update the file to reflect progress
