What the file says

# Task Tracking with Dots

Dots is a lightweight task tracker for managing work across sessions. Use the `dot` CLI to track work items, dependencies, and completion reasons.

## When to use this skill

Use this skill when you need to:
- Track work items across sessions
- Manage dependencies between tasks
- Record completion reasons for auditability

## Preflight: ensure dot is installed

Before running any workflow commands, check for the `dot` CLI:

```bash
command -v dot >/dev/null 2>&1
```

If `dot` is not found, install it.

Homebrew:

```bash
brew install joelreymont/tap/dots
```

From source (requires Zig 0.15+):

```bash
git clone https://github.com/joelreymont/dots.git
cd dots
zig build -Doptimize=ReleaseSmall
cp zig-out/bin/dot ~/.local/bin/
```

Make sure `~/.local/bin` is on your `PATH`, then verify:

```bash
dot --version
```

## Essential Session Workflow

At the start of every session:

```bash
dot ls
dot ready
```

Before starting any task:

```bash
dot on <id>
```

After completing any task:

```bash
dot off <id> -r "What was done"
```

Never leave completed tasks open. Always close with a short reason.

## Creating Dots

```bash
# Quick add
dot "Fix the bug"
