Required for 4+ step requests; add tasks at start and update status after each step.
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 List Skill Track multi-step tasks to ensure nothing is forgotten. ## When to use - The request requires 4 or more distinct steps - You need to perform several operations in sequence ## Instructions 1. Add tasks before starting multi-step work. 2. Mark exactly one task in progress while working. 3. Update task status as each step completes. 4. Keep task text concise and action-oriented. ## How to use Use the `tasks` tool directly. Do NOT use run_code, execute, or write_file for task management. ### 1. Add tasks at the start ``` tasks(operation="add_multiple", content="Step one; Step two; Step three") ``` This clears any previous tasks. Each request starts fresh. ## Examples ```python tasks(operation="add_multiple", content="Inspect repo; Run tests; Summarize findings") tasks(operation="start", task_id="task_1") tasks(operation="complete", task_id="task_1") ``` ### 2. Start a task before working on it ``` tasks(operation="start", task_id="task_1") ``` ### 3. Complete a task when done ``` tasks(operation="complete", task_id="task_1") ``` ### 4. Check what's next ``` tasks(operation="next") ``` ## All operations | Operation | Args | Description | …

How to install
mdr add nvidia/skillevaluator/task-list@sha256:38f1e6e96a3a8f70The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260801.fdf3ea4, 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.
