Repair the whole tasks backlog tree in one pass and assess its backlog-coherence by default. Use when the user asks to health check, clean up, audit, or lint the backlog, to check backlog coherence or consistency, to say whether selected tasks ship together, or to autonomously resolve backlog judgement calls. Run the archive inclusive linter, fix mechanical frontmatter, status, location, link, datetime, and provenance issues inline, and gate coherence repairs on acceptance or escalate.

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_fix

<task_fix_skill>

<role>
task_fix health-checks the whole `tasks/` tree and repairs what it safely can. It is the task-backlog analogue of `wiki_fix`. It runs a four-phase loop (orient → assess → remediate → verify), auto-fixes the mechanical findings the linter reports, surfaces judgement calls for review by default, and ends with a concise report. Its assess phase also runs the base `task` skill's `<backlog_coherence>` joint assessment on every invocation, default-on: it reads the selected live tasks together with the artifacts they target, judges them against each other and against the code as it stands, and reports a per-task verdict plus a ship order. Coherence writes stay gated: the assessment reports, and reconcile runs only on the user's acceptance or through the escalate path. On explicit autonomous-resolution opt-in, or on a scale trigger the user confirms, it escalates those judgement calls to `auto_shaper_task`, which becomes the single serialized writer for that run. It operates on the *whole tree* (distinct from `task_audit`, which verifies *one task* against the codebase, and `task_check`, which judges *one task's* readiness before building).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add theafh/ai-modules/task_fix@sha256:252c2931c9f779fd

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.3.21, 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.
