Description
Task-management is an agent skill that keeps your tasks in a shared TASKS.md file, which both you and the assistant can edit. The file lives in the current working directory. If it exists, the skill reads and writes to it, and if it does not, the skill creates it from a template. The skill is used whenever you ask about your tasks, want to add or complete one, or need help tracking what is in progress. On first use it also sets up a visual dashboard for managing tasks and memory: it copies the dashboard file into the working directory if it is not there, and then tells you to run the start command in the productivity plugin to open it. Because the task list is a plain file, you can read and change it in any editor, and the assistant works from the same content. The skill is part of Anthropic's knowledge-work plugins.…
