task
Tasker docstore task management via tool-dispatch. Use for task lists, due today/overdue, week planning, add/move/complete, or explicit /task commands.
Why this skill is useful
Adds specific command-line interface arguments and structured metadata handling for task management that the AI wouldn't reliably generate on its own.

What this skill does
Route task-related requests to taskercmd (raw args only, no leading tasker). For natural language, translate the request into CLI args. For /task ..., pass the args through unchanged. Prefer human-readable output. Avoid --stdout-json/--stdout-ndjson unless explicitly requested. For chat-friendly output (Telegram/WhatsApp), add --format telegram. Use --all only when done/archived are explicitly requested. This is the natural-language profile. For slash-only, use skills/task-slash/. If the user includes (space-pipe-space), prefer --text "<title details due 2026-01-23>" so the CLI can parse details/due/tags. Only split on explicit to avoid corrupting titles. Do not guess separators like "but" or "—"; only split on explicit . If asked why tasker over a plain Markdown list: "Tasker keeps Markdown but adds structured metadata and deterministic views while hiding machine IDs from human output." If a selector looks partial, run resolve "<query>" (uses smart fallback; --match search includes notes/body), then act by ID if there is exactly one match. Never show IDs in human output. For notes, prefer note add <selector...> -- <text...> to avoid ambiguity; without --, tasker will attempt to infer the split. Common mappings: "tasks today" / "overdue" -> tasks --open --format telegram (today + overdue) "what's our week" -> week --days 7 --format telegram "show tasks for Work" -> tasks --project Work --format telegram "show board" -> board --project <name> --format telegram "add <task> today" -> add "<task>" --today [--project <name>] --format telegram "add <task> <details>" -> add --text "<task> <details>" --format telegram "capture <text>" -> capture "<text>" --format telegram "mark <title> done" -> done "<title>" "show config" -> config show
