# File-based todo tracking ## File naming convention ``` {issue_id}-{status}-{priority}-{description}.md ``` - **issue_id**: Sequential number (001, 002, 003...) -- never reused - **status**: `pending` (needs triage), `ready` (approved), `complete` (done) - **priority**: `p1` (critical), `p2` (important), `p3` (nice-to-have) - **description**: kebab-case, brief description Examples: `001-pending-p1-mailer-test.md`, `002-ready-p1-fix-n-plus-1.md`, `005-complete-p2-refactor-csv.md` ## File Structure Use [todo-template.md](./assets/todo-template.md) as a starting point. YAML frontmatter: ```yaml --- status: ready # pending | ready | complete priority: p1 # p1 | p2 | p3 issue_id: "002" tags: [typescript, performance, database] dependencies: ["001"] # Issue IDs this is blocked by --- ``` **Required sections:** Problem Statement, Findings, Proposed Solutions, Recommended Action, Acceptance Criteria, Work Log **Optional sections:** Technical Details, Resources, Notes ## Key Distinctions **File-todos system (this skill):** Markdown files in `todos/` directory for development/project tracking. Used by humans and agents. **Application Todo model:** Database model for user-facing task management. Different from this file-based system. **TodoWrite tool:** In-memory task tracking during agent sessions. Temporary, not persisted to disk. ## References - [workflows.md](./references/workflows.md) - Creating, triaging, dependencies, work logs, com
