Step 0: Parse Query

QUERY = ""  # Component description

# 1. Create main task IMMEDIATELY
TaskCreate(subject="Component search: {QUERY}", description="Search 21st.dev registry", activeForm="Searching for {QUERY}")

# 2. Create subtasks for each phase
TaskCreate(subject="Parse query and detect project context", activeForm="Detecting project context")  # id=2
TaskCreate(subject="Search component registry", activeForm="Searching registry")                      # id=3
TaskCreate(subject="Present and deliver results", activeForm="Presenting results")                    # id=4

# 3. Set dependencies for sequential phases
TaskUpdate(taskId="3", addBlockedBy=["2"])  # Search needs project context first
TaskUpdate(taskId="4", addBlockedBy=["3"])  # Results need search done

# 4. Update status as you progress
TaskUpdate(taskId="2", status="in_progress")  # When starting
TaskUpdate(taskId="2", status="completed")    # When done — repeat for each subtask

# Detect project context for framework filtering
Glob("**/package.json")
# Read to determine: React version, Tailwind, shadcn/ui, styling approach

# Detect shadcn/ui style for result ranking
Glob("**/components.json")
# Read → "style" field (e.g., "radix-luma", "base-nova")
# Used to prefer components matching the project's visual language
