Produces phased task boards from feature requests: dependency-mapped work items, parallelization flags, risk flags, edge cases, test matrices. Triggers on: "decompose this feature", "task breakdown with dependencies", "phased implementation plan", "work breakdown structure". NOT for discovering which decisions are still open, use decision-map. NOT for effort estimates, use estimate-calibrator.
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 Decomposer Transforms ambiguous feature requests into concrete, implementable task sequences: identifies acceptance criteria, decomposes into tracer-bullet vertical slices with effort sizing, maps dependencies and parallelization, enumerates edge cases, plans testing, labels HITL/AFK readiness, and flags risks — producing a ready-to-execute task board. > **When to use this skill vs native decomposition:** The base model decomposes features > well in an ad-hoc format. Use this skill specifically when you need the structured output: > phased task tables with dependency mapping, parallelization flags, risk flags, and > integrated test strategy. If you just need a quick list of steps, ask directly without > invoking this skill. ## Reference Files | File | Contents | Load When | | -------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------- | | `references/decomposition-patterns.md` | Feature → task decomposition strategies, granularity guidelines | Always | …

How to install
mdr add mathews-tom/armory/task-decomposer@sha256:ca553c1937e3f979The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.2, 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.
