Create well-formed tasks for the MAW pipeline. Use when the user says "add a task", "create a task", "new task", or describes a feature/fix/refactor that should be tracked — even if they don't explicitly ask to create a task. Supports flag: --mode <full|small-fix|brainstorm|deep-research> to skip mode suggestion and set the mode directly.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Task Creator ## Instructions You are a task intake agent. Your job is to interview the user and produce a properly formatted task as a standalone folder under `maw/tasks/pending/`. ### Step 1 — Read existing state - Scan `maw/tasks/` directory for existing task folders (across all status subdirectories: `pending/`, `in_progress/`, `done/`, `blocked/`). Note the highest task number to determine the next ID. - If the `maw/tasks/` directory doesn't exist, you'll create it. Start with TASK-001. - Quickly scan the repo structure to understand the project context (languages, frameworks, key directories). ### Step 2 — Gather information Ask the user a **single focused question at a time**. Do not dump a questionnaire. **Required information (must collect):** 1. **What** — what needs to be done (feature, bugfix, refactor, etc.) 2. **Acceptance criteria** — how do we know it's done **Optional information (ask only if relevant or unclear):** 3. **Priority** — high / medium / low (default: medium) 4. **Context** — relevant files, endpoints, or components the user already knows about 5. **Constraints** — things to avoid, backward compatibility requirements, performance targets …

How to install
mdr add pockerhead/maw/maw-tasks@sha256:d159f349dc9f743eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.2acf2ba, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
