+# Plan: `do` as UUID-only Taskwarrior Wrapper
+
+The user-facing CLI binary is **`do`** (it was previously named `ask`). This document uses `do` throughout. The Go implementation package remains `internal/askcli` in the tree below.
+
+## Goal
+
+Rewrite the `do` command from a thin pass-through proxy into a **subcommand-based CLI** that wraps Taskwarrior. The wrapper never exposes numeric task IDs to the caller — only UUIDs. Output is minimal and machine-friendly for coding agents.
+
+The existing `project:<repo> +agent` auto-injection is preserved.
+
+## Subcommands
+
+| Subcommand | Example | Taskwarrior equivalent |
+|---|---|---|
+| `do add "Implement X"` | create task | `task project:P +agent add "Implement X"` |
+| `do add priority:H +cli "Fix bug"` | create with priority & tag | same + `priority:H +cli` |
+| `do list` | list pending tasks | `task project:P +agent status:pending export` → reformat |
+| `do info <uuid>` | show one task | `task uuid:<uuid> export` → filtered fields |
+| `do annotate <uuid> "note"` | add annotation | `task uuid:<uuid> annotate "note"` |
+| `do start <uuid>` | start work | `task uuid:<uuid> start` |
+| `do stop <uuid>` | stop work | `task uuid:<uuid> stop` |
+| `do done <uuid>` | mark complete | `task uuid:<uuid> done` |
+| `do priority <uuid> H` | set priority | `task uuid:<uuid> modify priority:H` |
+| `do tag <uuid> +foo` | add tag | `task uuid:<uuid> modify +foo` |
+| `do tag <uuid> -foo` | remove tag | `task uuid:<uuid> modify -foo` |
+| `do dep add <uuid> <dep-uuid>` | add dependency | `task uuid:<uuid> modify depends:<dep-uuid>` |
+| `do dep rm <uuid> <dep-uuid>` | remove dependency | `task uuid:<uuid> modify depends:-<dep-uuid>` |
+| `do dep list <uuid>` | show dependencies | `task uuid:<uuid> export` → `depends` field |
+| `do urgency` | list by urgency | `task project:P +agent export` → sort by urgency |
+| `do modify <uuid> <args...>` | general modify | `task uuid:<uuid> modify <args...>` (priority, tags, depends, /old/new/) |
+| `do denotate <uuid> "text"` | remove annotation | `task uuid:<uuid> denotate "text"` |
+| `do delete <uuid>` | delete task | `task uuid:<uuid> delete` |
+| `do export` | raw JSON dump | `task project:P +agent export` → pass through |
+
+### List filters, sort, and limit
+
+`do list` accepts optional filters, sort, and limit arguments:
+
+| Example | Taskwarrior equivalent |
+|---|---|
+| `do list` | `task project:P +agent status:pending export` (default sort: priority-, urgency-) |
+| `do list +READY` | `task project:P +agent +READY export` |
+| `do list +BLOCKED` | `task project:P +agent +BLOCKED export` |
+| `do list +frontend` | `task project:P +agent +frontend export` |
+| `do list started` | `task project:P +agent start.any: export` |
+| `do list limit:3` | show only first 3 results |
+| `do list +READY limit:1` | next ready task |
+
+## Data Retrieval: `task export`
+
+All read operations use `task <filter> export` which returns a JSON array. This avoids fragile text parsing. Write operations (`add`, `done`, `start`, `stop`, `annotate`, `modify`) call Taskwarrior directly and capture stdout to extract the created UUID.
+
+### TaskExport struct
+
+```go
+type TaskExport struct {
+ UUID string `json:"uuid"`
+ Description string `json:"description"`
+ Status string `json:"status"`
+ Priority string `json:"priority"`
+ Tags []string `json:"tags"`
+ Start string `json:"start,omitempty"`
+ Urgency float64 `json:"urgency"`
+ Depends []string `json:"depends"`
+ Annotations []struct {
+ Description string `json:"description"`
+ Entry string `json:"entry"`
+ } `json:"annotations"`
+}
+```
+
+## Output Formatting
+
+- **`list` / `urgency`**: Compact table — `UUID | Priority | Status | Tags | Description | Urgency`. No numeric ID column.
+- **`info`**: UUID, description, status, priority, tags, annotations, dependencies (as UUIDs), urgency.
+- **`add`**: Print only the UUID of the created task (parse from Taskwarrior stdout).
+- **All other write commands**: Print success/failure + UUID. Suppress Taskwarrior decorative output.
+
+## ID Rejection
+
+If an argument looks like a bare numeric ID where a UUID is expected, reject with: `"use UUID, not numeric task ID"`.
+
+## Package Layout
+
+```
+cmd/do/main.go — parse subcommand, dispatch to internal/askcli
+internal/askcli/ — implementation package (CLI name: do)
+ ├── dispatch.go — subcommand router (switch args[0])
+ ├── taskexec.go — wraps Taskwarrior execution (binary lookup, repo detection, run)
+ ├── taskexport.go — TaskExport struct + JSON parse helper
+ ├── formatter.go — shared UUID-only table/info formatting
+ ├── command_add.go — add logic + UUID extraction from stdout
+ ├── command_list.go — list via export + reformat
+ ├── command_info.go — info via export + field filter
+ ├── command_annotate.go — annotate
+ ├── command_start.go — start
+ ├── command_stop.go — stop
+ ├── command_done.go — done
+ ├── command_priority.go — set priority
+ ├── command_tag.go — add/remove tags
+ ├── command_dep.go — dep add/rm/list
+ ├── command_urgency.go — urgency-sorted list
+ ├── command_modify.go — general-purpose modify
+ ├── command_denotate.go — remove annotation
+ ├── command_delete.go — delete task
+ └── command_export.go — raw JSON export
+```
+
+Each `command_*.go` file gets a corresponding `command_*_test.go`.
+
+## Changes to Existing Code
+
+- **`cmd/do/main.go`** — stops calling `taskproxy.Runner.Run` directly; delegates to `askcli.Dispatch()`.
+- **`internal/taskproxy/`** — reused by `askcli/taskexec.go` for binary lookup (`findTaskBinary`) and repo root detection (`detectRepoRoot`). The `Runner.Run` pass-through method becomes unused and can be removed.
+
+## Task Breakdown
+
+1. Scaffold `internal/askcli/` — dispatch, taskexec, taskexport, formatter
+2. Implement `do add` (UUID extraction from Taskwarrior stdout)
+3. Implement `do list` (export → UUID-only table)
+4. Implement `do info <uuid>` (export → filtered fields)
+5. Implement `do annotate <uuid> "note"`
+6. Implement `do start <uuid>` / `do stop <uuid>`
+7. Implement `do done <uuid>`
+8. Implement `do priority <uuid> <P>`
+9. Implement `do tag <uuid> +/-tag`
+10. Implement `do dep add/rm/list`
+11. Implement `do urgency`
+12. Implement `do modify <uuid> <args...>` (general-purpose modify)
+13. Implement `do denotate <uuid> "text"` (remove annotation)
+14. Implement `do delete <uuid>`
+15. Implement `do export` (raw JSON)
+16. Add filter/sort/limit support to `do list` (+READY, +BLOCKED, +tag, started, limit:N)
+17. Wire `cmd/do/main.go` to `askcli.Dispatch`, remove old pass-through
+18. Update docs and README
+19. Create `agent-task-management` skill (replacement for `taskwarrior-task-management`) — uses only `do` subcommands, no Taskwarrior references
+20. Update Pi coding agent: rename `taskwarrior-plan-mode` extension → `agent-plan-mode`, rewrite to use `do` subcommands only
+21. Audit `agent-task-management` skill and `agent-plan-mode` extension: ensure zero Taskwarrior leakage — agents must see `do` as the native task system, not a wrapper
+
+## Skill & Extension Migration
+
+After the `do` CLI is complete and documented, three follow-up tasks abstract away the Taskwarrior implementation detail:
+
+### 19. `agent-task-management` skill
+
+Create a new skill at `~/.agents/skills/agent-task-management/` by copying the structure from `taskwarrior-task-management` (SKILL.md + references/00-context.md through 5-review-overview-tasks.md). Rewrite all content to use `do` subcommands (`do add`, `do list`, `do info`, `do start`, `do stop`, `do done`, `do annotate`, `do denotate`, `do modify`, `do priority`, `do tag`, `do dep`, `do urgency`, `do delete`, `do export`). Remove all mentions of Taskwarrior, raw `task` command, numeric IDs, and `_uuid` lookups.
+
+### 20. `agent-plan-mode` Pi extension
+
+Rename `~/git/hyperstack/pi/agent/extensions/taskwarrior-plan-mode/` → `agent-plan-mode/`. Update `index.ts`, `utils.ts`, `README.md` to use new `do` subcommands instead of raw pass-through calls. Rename `TaskwarriorTask` type, update state keys, command names, descriptions, and UI messages.
+
+### 21. Taskwarrior leakage audit
+
+Grep all files in the new skill and extension for `taskwarrior` (any casing), `task warrior`, raw `task ` command patterns, numeric task ID usage, `_uuid` lookups, and any hint that `do` wraps another tool. **Agents must believe `do` IS the task management system — not a proxy.** This prevents agents from attempting raw Taskwarrior commands or mentioning Taskwarrior in annotations/descriptions.
