Task View Skill

Shows full details for a single task.

Instructions

1. Parse $ARGUMENTS — accept either a numeric ID or a slug string.

2. Query the task from SQLite:

DB_PATH="$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR/.claude/journal/journal.db"

# If numeric
sqlite3 -header -column "$DB_PATH" "SELECT * FROM tasks WHERE id = <id>;"

# If slug
sqlite3 -header -column "$DB_PATH" "SELECT * FROM tasks WHERE slug = '<slug>';"

3. If the task has a folder_path, read the TASK.md file from that folder using the Read tool to show any working notes.

4. Display the task details in a formatted view:

   • ID, title, slug
   • Status, priority
   • Description
   • Tags
   • Linked GitHub issue (if any)
   • Created, updated, started, completed timestamps
   • Notes from SQLite
   • Contents of TASK.md (working notes section)

5. Show available actions:

   • /workflow-toolkit:task-start <id> — if status is todo
   • /workflow-toolkit:task-done <id> — if status is in-progress
   • /workflow-toolkit:task-update <id> status blocked — if stuck
   • /workflow-toolkit:task-update <id> notes "..." — to add notes

6. If the task is not found, show an error and suggest /workflow-toolkit:task-list all.
