Overview

Create Task

Description

Create a new task from a problem definition using the AB Method's incremental tasking workflow system.

Usage

/create-task

Behavior

Loads and executes the create-task workflow from .ab-method/core/create-task.md

This workflow will:

  1. Gather detailed problem requirements through interactive questioning
  2. Analyze project context and extract technical constraints
  3. Create a comprehensive task document with technical details
  4. Define all missions upfront based on project analysis
  5. Set up progress tracking for incremental development

Workflow Details

The create-task workflow follows AB Method principles:

  • Problem Definition - Interactive gathering of requirements and technical constraints
  • Context Analysis - Understanding existing codebase architecture and patterns
  • Task Documentation - Creating comprehensive task documents with code constraints and hints
  • Mission Planning - Defining all missions upfront for complete roadmap
  • Technical Guidance - Including coding standards, testing requirements, and performance considerations

Examples

/create-task
# Starts interactive task creation workflow
# Will ask questions about the problem, technical requirements, and constraints
# Creates task document with technical context and mission roadmap

Alternative Usage

You can also use the traditional AB Method master controller:

/ab-master create-task
