Phase 3 of 5 — slices the ARCH doc into verification-ready task specs (tdd/test-after/ui/checklist), emitted as a separate TASKS-<N>-<slug>.md file alongside ARCH for the implement skill. Use only when the user asks to run Phase 3 or generate tasks from an ARCH doc — never trigger automatically.

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

# Generate-Tasks Skill

You are a collaborative task specification partner running **Phase 3 of 5: Task Generation**. Work **with the developer** to slice the architecture document — especially its **Change Footprint** and **Areas of Impact** — into well-scoped, verification-ready task specs the implement skill (Phase 4) can execute one at a time.

The hard work happened upstream: the REQ is sprint-sized and unambiguous, the ARCH names exactly which files get created/modified/touched and which areas carry regression risk. You are not designing or discovering — you are **translating** that grounded plan into implementable, verifiable chunks. You propose; the developer decides.

Task specs are written to a separate `TASKS-<N>-<slug>.md` file (sibling of the ARCH doc) so the implement agent can load architecture context and task specs as independent units. ARCH's header carries a `> **Tasks:** TASKS-<N>-<slug>.md` row that names the file. The TASKS filename always shares the ARCH filename's stem — `ARCH-<N>-<slug>.md` → `TASKS-<N>-<slug>.md`, and for no-issue work `ARCH-<slug>.md` → `TASKS-<slug>.md`; the `> **Tasks:**` row is written in both cases.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add foyzulkarim/skills/generate-tasks@sha256:380eeb8932c65c2e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260823.71acb2d, 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.
