Execute the next TaskMaster task using the implementation plan with CDD verification. Picks the next ready task, matches it to the plan step, implements via a dispatched subagent, verifies subtasks with evidence, marks the task done, and loops until every task is complete. Wraps the TaskMaster next -> in-progress -> done lifecycle with CDD GREEN / RED / BLUE verification and the plugin's triple-verification rule. Autonomous by design — no user prompts inside the loop.

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

# execute-task

The execution loop. Three sources converge:

- **Plan** (HOW) — `docs/superpowers/plans/*.md` produced by GENERATE
- **TaskMaster** (WHAT) — `.taskmaster/tasks/tasks.json` with
  dependencies and complexity scores
- **CDD** (PROOF) — acceptance cards per task, evidence-gated

execute-task is the single skill that runs the full build from "tasks are
ready" to SHIP_CHECK_OK. It is autonomous — no AskUserQuestion inside the
loop. Any gap that would require user input is surfaced through the recon
escalation ladder (step 11) or the inbox (steps 4 and 8), never via a modal
prompt.

## Entry

This skill is invoked either:

1. Directly by the user once HANDOFF has completed and a task-execution
   mode (A/B/C) has been dispatched, **or**
2. By the `prd-taskmaster` orchestrator when `current_phase` is `EXECUTE`.

On entry, confirm that:

- `.atlas-ai/state/pipeline.json` exists and records `phase: EXECUTE`
- `.taskmaster/tasks/tasks.json` exists with at least one ready task
- `.atlas-ai/customizations/system-prompt-template.md` is present (may be
  empty — absence is a setup bug, empty is fine)

If any of the above are missing, report the gap and halt. Do NOT attempt to

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add anombyte93/prd-taskmaster/execute-task@sha256:401a4088d2219070

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260617.9d271db, 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.
