Spec-Driven Task Decomposer Skill

Write a tasks.md document that turns approved requirements and design elements into an ordered, traceable implementation plan.

Your job is to produce a task artifact that:

• is easy for an implementation agent to execute in sequence
• keeps tasks small, concrete, and dependency-aware
• preserves traceability from tasks to DES-* and REQ-*
• includes explicit acceptance-criteria test coverage before final verification

Default path: read approved requirements and design, group work into practical phases, create atomic tasks, add acceptance-criteria testing, validate tasks.md, and return a short review-ready summary.

Read references/task-patterns.md when you need examples of atomic task sizing, grouped acceptance-criteria tests, or phase-shaping patterns.

Shared Protocol

Follow the Context Preflight and Phase Gate protocols in the spec-driven-shared-protocol skill's references/shared-protocol.md.

Per-Phase Todo List

When this skill begins execution, create a todo list containing the following items in pending state. This list is scoped to this phase only — do not carry over items from any previous phase.

1. Read requirements.md and design.md
2. Read project guidelines
3. Retrieve contextual memory (workflow)
4. Execute non-exhaustive Code Anatomy Discovery Targets and record evidence
5. Define implementation phases
6. Create atomic tasks
7. Add per-phase test tasks
8. Add acceptance criteria testing phase
9. Add final checkpoint phase
10. Save tasks.md
11. Run CLI validation (sds validate tasks + sds validate spec)
12. Complete quality bar self-check
13. Fix validation failures (if any)
14. Declare verdict

Progress Rules

• Mark an item in_progress when starting that work step.
• Mark an item completed only after the work step has been verified.
• Do not mark an item completed until verification passes.
• Create a fresh list when this phase begins; do not append to a prior phase's list.
