🚀 Command Overview: /task:execute

• Purpose: Executes tasks using intelligent agent selection, context preparation, and progress tracking.
• Core Principles: @~/.claude/workflows/workflow-architecture.md

⚙️ Execution Modes

• auto (Default)
  • Fully autonomous execution with automatic agent selection.
  • Provides progress updates at each checkpoint.
  • Automatically completes the task when done.
• guided
  • Executes step-by-step, requiring user confirmation at each checkpoint.
  • Allows for dynamic adjustments and manual review during the process.
• review
  • Executes under the supervision of a review-agent.
  • Performs quality checks and provides detailed feedback at each step.

🤖 Agent Selection Logic

The system determines the appropriate agent for a task using the following logic.

FUNCTION select_agent(task, agent_override):
    // A manual override always takes precedence.
    // Corresponds to the --agent=<agent-type> flag.
    IF agent_override IS NOT NULL:
        RETURN agent_override

    // If no override, select based on keywords in the task title.
    ELSE:
        CASE task.title:
            WHEN CONTAINS "Build API", "Implement":
                RETURN "code-developer"
            WHEN CONTAINS "Design schema", "Plan":
                RETURN "planning-agent"
            WHEN CONTAINS "Write tests":
                RETURN "test-agent"
            WHEN CONTAINS "Review code":
                RETURN "review-agent"
            DEFAULT:
                RETURN "code-developer" // Default agent
        END CASE
END FUNCTION

🔄 Core Execution Protocol

Pre-Execution -> Execution -> Post-Execution

✅ Pre-Execution Protocol

Validate Task & Dependencies -> Prepare Execution Context -> Coordinate with TodoWrite

• Validation: Checks for the task's JSON file in .task/ and resolves its dependencies.
• Context Preparation: Loads task and workflow context, preparing it for the selected agent.
• TodoWrite Coordination: Generates execution Todos and checkpoints, syncing with TODO_LIST.md.

🏁 Post-Execution Protocol

Update Task Status -> Generate Summary -> Save Artifacts -> Sync All Progress -> Validate File Integrity

• Updates status in the task's JSON file and TODO_LIST.md.
• Creates a summary in .summaries/.
• Stores outputs and syncs progress across the entire workflow session.

🧠 Task & Subtask Execution Logic

This logic defines how single, multiple, or parent tasks are handled.

FUNCTION execute_task_command(task_id, mode, parallel_flag):
    // Handle parent tasks by executing their subtasks.
    IF is_parent_task(task_id):
        subtasks = get_subtasks(task_id)
        EXECUTE_SUBTASK_BATCH(subtasks, mode)

    // Handle wildcard execution (e.g., IMPL-001.*)
    ELSE IF task_id CONTAINS "*":
        subtasks = find_matching_tasks(task_id)
        IF parallel_flag IS true:
            EXECUTE_IN_PARALLEL(subtasks)
        ELSE:
            FOR each subtask in subtasks:
                EXECUTE_SINGLE_TASK(subtask, mode)
  
    // Default case for a single task ID.
    ELSE:
        EXECUTE_SINGLE_TASK(task_id, mode)
END FUNCTION

🛡️ Error Handling & Recovery Logic

FUNCTION pre_execution_check(task):
    // Ensure dependencies are met before starting.
    IF task.dependencies ARE NOT MET:
        LOG_ERROR("Cannot execute " + task.id)
        LOG_INFO("Blocked by: " + unmet_dependencies)
        HALT_EXECUTION()

FUNCTION on_execution_failure(checkpoint):
    // Provide user with recovery options upon failure.
    LOG_WARNING("Execution failed at checkpoint " + checkpoint)
    PRESENT_OPTIONS([
        "Retry from checkpoint",
        "Retry from beginning",
        "Switch to guided mode",
        "Abort execution"
    ])
    AWAIT user_input
    // System performs the selected action.
END FUNCTION

✨ Advanced Execution Controls

• Dry Run (--dry-run): Simulates execution, showing the agent, estimated time, and files affected without making changes.
• Custom Checkpoints (--checkpoints="..."): Overrides the default checkpoints with a custom, comma-separated list (e.g., "design,implement,deploy").
• Conditional Execution (--if="..."): Proceeds with execution only if a specified condition (e.g., "tests-pass") is met.
• Rollback (--rollback): Reverts file modifications and restores the previous task state.

📄 Simplified Context Structure (JSON)

This is the simplified data structure loaded to provide context for task execution.

{
  "task": {
    "id": "impl-1",
    "title": "Build authentication module",
    "type": "feature",
    "status": "active",
    "agent": "code-developer",
    "context": {
      "requirements": ["JWT authentication", "OAuth2 support"],
      "scope": ["src/auth/*", "tests/auth/*"],
      "acceptance": ["Module handles JWT tokens", "OAuth2 flow implemented"],
      "inherited_from": "WFS-user-auth"
    },
    "relations": {
      "parent": null,
      "subtasks": ["impl-1.1", "impl-1.2"],
      "dependencies": ["impl-0"]
    }
  },
  "workflow": {
    "session": "WFS-user-auth",
    "phase": "IMPLEMENT"
  },
  "execution": {
    "agent": "code-developer",
    "mode": "auto",
    "attempts": 0
  }
}

🎯 Agent-Specific Context

Different agents receive context tailored to their function:

• code-developer: Code patterns, dependencies, file scopes.
• planning-agent: High-level requirements, constraints, success criteria.
• test-agent: Test requirements, code to be tested, coverage goals.
• review-agent: Quality standards, style guides, review criteria.

🗃️ Simplified File Output

• Task JSON File (.task/<task-id>.json): Updated with status and last attempt time only.
• Session File (workflow-session.json): Updated task stats (completed count).
• Summary File: Generated in .summaries/ upon completion (optional).
