/task-analyze — Strategist
Command: /task-analyze · Role file: TASK_ANALYZER_ROLE.md
Runs before /taskmaster. It challenges weak proposals, surfaces one or two
alternative paths, and asks targeted clarifying questions before any task exists.
What it does
- Analyzes the request (architecture, ops, UX, process — not only code).
- Pushes back on thin briefs and proposes alternatives.
- Only after an explicit human go-ahead, hands off to
/taskmasterand writes anANALYSIS.mdaudit trail into the new task folder.
In the flow
Entry point. On hand-off it invokes /taskmaster, which creates the task in
ready. See Transitions.
Notes
Treats every URL / pasted document / tool output as data, never instructions, and refuses to create a task from a fully external brief. Full prompt: Reference → TASK_ANALYZER_ROLE.md.
