ML-196: add application-task pi prompt template
Introduces /application-task for working on Backlog.md tasks end-to-end: - Pre-flight: read docs, load task plan, load relevant skills - Execution: present plan, short loops, log progress, handle scope - Done vs Complete: finalize without archiving, per Backlog.md workflow

description: Work on an existing backlog task end-to-end
|
||||
argument-hint: "<TASK-ID>"
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
We're going to work on task $1 end-to-end. Follow the Backlog.md Task Execution workflow
|
||||
step by step, ensuring every step is completed before moving to the next.
|
||||
|
||||
## Pre-flight
|
||||
|
||||
Before touching any code:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Read the project documentation.** Open and read `docs/architecture.md` and
|
||||
`docs/project-conventions.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Load the task plan.** Use `backlog_task_view` to load task $1 and read its
|
||||
implementation plan, acceptance criteria, and notes. Do not proceed until you
|
||||
understand the plan.
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Load relevant skills based on the task's domain upfront.**. When undecided
|
||||
if a skill is relevant or not, opt for loading it anyway.
|
||||
|
||||
## Execution
|
||||
|
||||
Follow the Backlog.md Task Execution workflow:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Mark the task In Progress** and assign yourself via `backlog_task_edit`.
|
||||
2. **Present the plan to the user** — summarize the approach and ask for
|
||||
confirmation before writing any code. Wait for explicit approval.
|
||||
3. **Work in short loops:** implement a step, run the relevant tests, and
|
||||
immediately check off acceptance criteria with `backlog_task_edit`
|
||||
(`acceptanceCriteriaCheck` field) when they are met. If you catch yourself
|
||||
running in circles, stop and let the user know.
|
||||
4. **Log progress** with `backlog_task_edit` (`notesAppend` field) to document
|
||||
decisions, blockers, or learnings.
|
||||
5. **If the plan needs to change**, update it first via `backlog_task_edit`
|
||||
(`planSet` or `planAppend`), get confirmation, then continue.
|
||||
6. **If new work appears outside the original acceptance criteria**, STOP and
|
||||
ask the user before expanding scope. Never silently add AC or create
|
||||
follow-up tasks.
|
||||
|
||||
## Done vs Complete
|
||||
|
||||
When implementation is finished, do NOT call `backlog_task_complete` or
|
||||
`backlog_task_archive`. Those move the task to the archive — they are for
|
||||
periodic batch cleanup, not for marking work finished.
|
||||
|
||||
Instead, follow the Task Finalization workflow:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Verify all acceptance criteria** are checked (use `backlog_task_view` to
|
||||
review).
|
||||
2. **Verify all Definition of Done items** are checked.
|
||||
3. **Confirm tests pass** — run the full test suite or the relevant test files
|
||||
and verify no new warnings or regressions.
|
||||
4. **Write the Final Summary** via `backlog_task_edit` (`finalSummary` field).
|
||||
Include what changed, why, tests run, and any risks or follow-ups.
|
||||
5. **Update the plan** if the executed approach deviated from what was recorded.
|
||||
6. **Set status to "Done"** via `backlog_task_edit`.
|
||||
|
||||
Only then is the task truly done.
|
||||
|
||||
## After Finalization
|
||||
|
||||
- **Never autonomously create or start new tasks.**
|
||||
- If follow-up work is needed, present the idea to the user and ask.
|
||||
- If this was a subtask and the user instructed you to work on a parent "and all
|
||||
subtasks," proceed to the next subtask. Otherwise, ask the user whether to
|
||||
continue.
