🛠 Minimalist Task Tracker for Agents and Development
mdtask is a CLI tool and Spec-Driven Development (SDD) methodology designed to manage tasks and technical documentation directly within a Git repository. Tasks are stored as checkboxes in Markdown files, allowing code, specifications, and task statuses to be synchronized in a single commit.
🌍 mdtask solves the problem of "documentation drift" (stale docs) by making it a "living" part of the repository. This is critical for scalable development and autonomous AI agents.
👤 Developers no longer need to switch between Jira/Linear and their code editor — the backlog is maintained directly in Markdown. For working with Claude or Cursor, this simplifies the process, as it is easier for an agent to read the local context.
