Working with Taskfile Tasks

Overview

This project uses Taskfile for task automation. All available tasks are defined in Taskfile.yml at the project root.

When to use this skill:

• User asks "what can I do?" or "how do I...?"
• User wants to run a project task
• You need to understand available workflows

Discovering Tasks

1. Read Taskfile.yml to see all task definitions
2. Each task has a desc: field explaining what it does
3. Tasks are grouped by prefix for organization

Quick list: Run task --list to see all tasks with descriptions.

Running Tasks

Non-interactive tasks: Run directly with task <name>

task format
task build
task test

Interactive tasks: Either run interactively OR pass variables:

# Interactive (prompts for input)
task new

# Non-interactive (pass variable)
task new NAME=my-project

Handling Interactive Tasks

When user wants to run an interactive task:

1. Check if they provided the required variable
2. If not, ask for it conversationally
3. Run with the variable set

Example conversation:

User: Create a new component
Agent: What should I name it? (e.g., MyComponent)
User: UserProfile
Agent: *runs: task new NAME=UserProfile*

Key Commands

• task --list - Show all available tasks
• task <task-name> - Run specific task
• task --help - Get help on Taskfile usage
