Package Exports
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (uctm) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

uc-taskmanager
Universal Claude Task Manager — A general-purpose task pipeline subagent system for Claude Code CLI.
Quick Start
npm install -g uctm
cd your-project
uctm init --lang en # English agents
uctm init --lang ko # 한국어 에이전트
uctm init # Interactive language selectionThen start Claude Code and use pipeline tags:
claude
> [new-feature] Add a hello world featureTo run without permission prompts (file creation, shell commands, etc.), use bypass mode:
claude --dangerously-skip-permissionsWarning: Only use bypass mode in isolated environments or when you trust the pipeline fully. See Claude Code Permissions for details.
That's it. The specifier analyzes your request, plans the work, and executes through isolated subagent pipelines.
Why This Project Exists
The pitfalls of vibe coding with AI agents are already well known. You hand your brain to the AI, the code gets written, but nothing remains — no requirements, no execution plan, no design rationale. The software you built cannot be maintained because it was never truly yours to begin with.
SDD (Specification-Driven Development) flips the value hierarchy:
Code is no longer the asset. Requirements → Architecture → Design — these are the real assets now. Code is just the output.
uc-taskmanager was built to solve this. When you provide a requirement as input, the system:
- Plans — creates an execution plan with dependency graphs
- Decomposes — breaks the plan into concrete TASKs
- Executes — runs each TASK through isolated Claude AI subagents (build → verify → commit)
- Accumulates — every requirement, plan, and result is preserved as a traceable artifact
Each step runs in an isolated subagent pipeline, so your context stays clean and every decision is documented.
Six subagents work across any project and any language, automatically handling request routing → task decomposition → dependency management → code implementation → verification → commit.
"[new-feature] Build a user authentication feature"
→ specifier decides WORK, planner creates WORK-01 with 5 TASKs, pipeline executesUsage
Trivial Fix (direct mode)
> [bugfix] Fix typo in login error messageMain Claude calls specifier, which selects execution-mode: direct. Specifier itself (acting as builder) implements the change + committer commits. Creates WORK-NN directory + PLAN + result.md + commit.
Quick Task (pipeline mode)
> [bugfix] Fix the login button not responding on mobileMain Claude calls specifier, which selects execution-mode: pipeline and creates PLAN. Then Main Claude calls builder → verifier → committer in sequence.
Complex Feature (WORK)
1. Create WORK (Planning)
> [new-feature] Build a user authentication feature. Plan it.The planner analyzes the project and creates WORK-01:
WORK-01: User Authentication
WORK-01: TASK-00: Project initialization ← no dependencies
WORK-01: TASK-01: DB schema design ← TASK-00
WORK-01: TASK-02: JWT auth API ← TASK-01
WORK-01: TASK-03: User CRUD ← TASK-02
WORK-01: TASK-04: Tests + documentation ← TASK-03
Do you approve this plan?2. Execute WORK
> Run WORK-01 pipelineThe scheduler executes WORK-01's TASKs in dependency order.
3. Add to Existing WORK
If WORK-01 is IN_PROGRESS, the specifier asks:
"WORK-01 (User Authentication) is in progress. Add as a new TASK or create a new WORK?"
4. Check Status
> WORK listWORK Status
WORK-01: User Authentication ✅ 5/5 completed
WORK-02: Payment Integration 🔄 2/4 in progress
WORK-03: Admin Dashboard ⬜ 0/6 pending5. Auto Mode / Resume
> Run WORK-02 automatically
> Resume WORK-026. Run a Specific TASK
Skip to a specific TASK within a WORK (e.g., retry after a failure):
> Run WORK-02: TASK-02The scheduler returns the next TASK, then Main Claude calls builder → verifier → committer in sequence.
7. Force WORK Creation (Skip Complexity Check)
Use the [new-work] tag to always create a new WORK regardless of complexity:
> [new-work] Refactor the auth module8. Handle Failure / Retry
If a TASK fails during the pipeline, the scheduler retries up to 3 times automatically. If it still fails, you can inspect the result file and retry manually:
> WORK-02: TASK-01 failed. Retry it.Or fix the issue and re-run:
> Fix the issue in src/auth.ts, then retry WORK-02: TASK-019. Add a TASK to an In-Progress WORK
> [enhancement] Add rate limiting to the auth APIIf WORK-02 is IN_PROGRESS, the specifier asks:
"WORK-02 (Auth Module) is in progress. Add as a new TASK, or create a new WORK?"
10. Check Individual TASK Status
> Show WORK-02 progress
> What's the status of WORK-03: TASK-02?The scheduler reads PROGRESS.md and result.md files to report current state.
The [] Tag System
Prefix your request with a [] tag to trigger the pipeline:
| Tag | Meaning |
|---|---|
[new-feature] |
New feature |
[enhancement] |
Enhancement |
[bugfix] |
Bug fix |
[new-work] |
Always create new WORK (skip complexity check) |
No [] tag = handled directly without pipeline.
To register this rule in your project, add the following to your CLAUDE.md:
## Agent 호출 규칙
`[]` 태그로 시작하는 요청 → specifier 에이전트 호출 (WORK 파이프라인 시작)This ensures Claude automatically delegates []-tagged requests to the specifier agent without manual invocation.

# specifier, planner, scheduler, builder, verifier, committer → confirm all 6Concept: Three Execution Modes
Main Claude detects the [] tag and calls the specifier subagent, which selects one of three execution-mode values:
User Request → Main Claude (orchestrator)
│
▼
┌───────────┐
│ specifier │ (called by Main Claude)
└─────┬─────┘
│
execution-mode returned
│
├─ direct (no build/test required)
│ → specifier acts as builder + Main Claude calls committer
│
├─ pipeline (build/test required, single domain, sequential)
│ → Main Claude calls: builder → verifier → committer (in sequence)
│
└─ full (multi-domain / complex DAG / new module / 5+ tasks)
→ Main Claude calls: planner → scheduler → [builder → verifier → committer] × NAll three modes output to works/WORK-NN/ and guarantee result.md + COMMITTER DONE callback.
WORK (Multi-Task, full mode)
A two-level hierarchy for complex features:
WORK (unit of work) A single goal. The unit requested by the user.
└── TASK (unit of task) An individual execution unit to achieve the WORK.
└── result Completion proof. Auto-generated after verification.pipeline mode (Single Task, Delegated)
Subagent-delegated path for moderate single tasks. Main Claude calls each agent in sequence. Specifier stays clean.
Main Claude → builder(sonnet) → verifier(haiku) → committer(haiku)
(each called individually by Main Claude)direct mode (Trivial)
Main Claude calls specifier, which determines direct mode and implements the change itself. Main Claude then calls committer.
Main Claude → specifier: Analyze → Implement → Self-verify → [back to Main Claude]
Main Claude → committer: Commit → result.mdPipeline
WORK Pipeline (Complex)
Subagents cannot nest — Main Claude (CLI terminal) orchestrates every call.

| Completion report | TASK-NN_result.md |
| Plan | PLAN.md |
| Work progress | PROGRESS.md |
WORK-LIST.md
The specifier maintains works/WORK-LIST.md as the master index:
| WORK ID | Title | Status | Created |
|---|---|---|---|
| WORK-01 | User Authentication | COMPLETED | 2026-03-01 |
| WORK-02 | Payment Integration | IN_PROGRESS | 2026-03-05 |
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
IN_PROGRESS |
TASKs in progress — not yet pushed |
COMPLETED |
All TASKs committed + git push done |
- IN_PROGRESS: specifier checks this before creating new WORKs
- COMPLETED: updated at
git pushtime — not by agents
git push Procedure
When you ask Claude to push ("push this", "git push"), Claude handles the full sequence automatically:
1. Open works/WORK-LIST.md
2. Find all IN_PROGRESS WORKs
3. Change status → COMPLETED, update date
4. git add works/WORK-LIST.md
5. git commit -m "chore: update WORK-LIST — WORK-XX COMPLETED"
6. git pushAgents (builder / committer / scheduler) never update WORK-LIST to COMPLETED. COMPLETED is only set at push time. If an agent outputs
🎉 WORK complete!, that is a status message — not a WORK-LIST update.
Tips
Keep CLAUDE.md Up to Date
The language setting and project context live in CLAUDE.md. Agents read this on every invocation — keeping it accurate reduces back-and-forth.
Use [] Tags Consistently
Requests without [] tags are handled directly by Claude without routing. If you want guaranteed pipeline behavior, always use a tag.
Parallel TASKs
The planner creates dependency-aware TASK graphs. Independent TASKs (same blockedBy set) can be dispatched concurrently by the scheduler — mention it when approving:
> Approve. Run independent tasks in parallel.Resume After Context Reset
If Claude loses context mid-pipeline, you can always resume:
> Resume WORK-02 from where it stoppedThe scheduler reads PROGRESS.md to determine the last completed TASK and continues.

🎉 WORK-03 completed! 5 tasks, 5 commitsWhy This Approach?
Agent File Design
All agent files (agents/*.md) are written with a single principle: core content only, no decoration. Descriptions, emphasis markers, and redundant examples have been removed. The result is ~1,600 lines total across all agents — less than half the original size — while covering the same functional scope.
Each agent file follows a consistent four-section structure:
## 1. 역할 (Role)
Agent's purpose and responsibility declaration.
Single paragraph stating what the agent is and what it owns.
## 2. 수행업무 (Responsibilities)
Flat table of owned tasks.
| 업무 (Task) | 설명 (Description) |
## 3. 업무수행단계 및 내용 (Execution Steps)
Step-by-step procedure for each task listed in § 2.
Always starts with a STARTUP block listing required files to read on boot.
References file formats via file-content-schema.md (single source of truth).
References inter-agent communication via xml-schema.md.
## 4. 제약사항 및 금지사항 (Constraints and Prohibitions)
Immutable rules the agent must always follow.
Written as a flat prohibition/constraint list.file-content-schema.md is the single authoritative definition for all file formats (PLAN.md, TASK.md, progress.md, result.md). Agents reference it instead of embedding format specs inline — eliminating duplication across 6 agent files.
WORK ID Assignment Strategy
WORK IDs are assigned based on a filesystem-first approach:
- Filesystem Source: The planner scans
works/directory to find existing WORK directories and determines the next WORK ID based on the latest directory found. - MEMORY.md NOT used: Project memory (MEMORY.md) is never referenced for WORK numbering. Only the filesystem is the authoritative source.
- Consistency Check: The specifier validates WORK ID consistency by checking both the filesystem and WORK-LIST.md before dispatching to the planner.
This ensures:
- No duplicate WORK IDs even if MEMORY.md is stale or corrupted
- Reliable resumption across sessions
- Clear traceability: WORK-NN directly corresponds to
works/WORK-NN/
Context Isolation
Each subagent runs in an independent context. Even if the builder creates 50 files using 20,000 tokens, the scheduler only receives a 3-line summary.
scheduler's context after 5 TASKs:
PLAN.md (loaded once) ~500 tokens
WORK-01: TASK-00 result: "20 files, PASS" ~200 tokens
WORK-01: TASK-01 result: "15 files, PASS" ~200 tokens
WORK-01: TASK-02 result: "8 files, PASS" ~200 tokens
WORK-01: TASK-03 result: "12 files, PASS" ~200 tokens
WORK-01: TASK-04 result: "5 files, PASS" ~200 tokens
────────────────────────────────────────
Total: ~1,500 tokens (stays flat)Single Session vs uc-taskmanager
| Single Session | uc-taskmanager | |
|---|---|---|
| Context per TASK | All code + logs stacked | Summary only (~200 tokens) |
| After 10 TASKs | 50K~100K tokens, quality degrades | ~3K tokens, quality stable |
| Failure recovery | Start over | Resume from last result file |
| Tracking | Scroll chat history | File-based (PLAN.md, result.md) |
| Verification | Manual | Automated (build/lint/test) |
Router Rule Config (.agent/router_rule_config.json)
The specifier reads .agent/router_rule_config.json from the project root to determine routing criteria. If the file is absent, the specifier uses its built-in defaults.
File location:
{project-root}/.agent/router_rule_config.jsonJSON structure:
{
"$schema": "http://uc-taskmanager.local/schemas/specifier-rules/v1.0.json",
"version": "1.1.0",
"description": "Specifier execution-mode decision criteria. Customize per project.",
"decision_flow": [
"1. build_test_required? → false → direct",
"2. single_domain + sequential DAG → pipeline",
"3. any full_conditions met → full"
],
"rules": {
"direct": {
"criteria": {
"build_test_required": false,
"note": "File/line count irrelevant. If no build/test needed → direct (text edits, config changes, simple substitutions)"
}
},
"pipeline": {
"criteria": {
"build_test_required": true,
"single_domain_only": true,
"max_tasks": 5,
"dag_complexity": "sequential"
}
},
"full": {
"criteria": {
"any_of": [
"task_count > 5",
"dag_complexity == complex (2+ dependency levels)",
"multi_domain == true (BE + FE simultaneously)",
"new_module == true (design → implement → verify multi-phase)",
"partial_rollback_needed == true"
]
}
}
},
"customization_guide": {
"doc-heavy projects (md edits)": "Widen direct scope. Most build_test_required=false cases → direct",
"code-heavy projects": "Center on pipeline/full. Simple bug fixes → pipeline, multi-domain → full",
"max_tasks tuning": "Adjust pipeline max_tasks between 3–7 based on team size or context limits"
}
}Key fields:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
rules.direct.criteria.build_test_required |
false → specifier handles implementation, then committer commits |
rules.pipeline.criteria.max_tasks |
Max task count before escalating to full (default: 5) |
rules.pipeline.criteria.dag_complexity |
sequential only; complex DAG → escalates to full |
rules.full.criteria.any_of |
List of conditions — any match triggers full mode |
Fallback behavior: If .agent/router_rule_config.json is absent or malformed, the specifier falls back to its built-in defaults (equivalent to the structure above).
Per-project customization example:
For a documentation-heavy project where most changes are text edits:
{
"rules": {
"direct": {
"criteria": { "build_test_required": false }
},
"pipeline": {
"criteria": { "max_tasks": 3, "single_domain_only": true, "dag_complexity": "sequential" }
}
}
}For a monorepo with strict build requirements:
{
"rules": {
"pipeline": {
"criteria": { "max_tasks": 7 }
},
"full": {
"criteria": {
"any_of": ["task_count > 7", "multi_domain == true"]
}
}
}
}Three Execution Modes
The specifier matches effort to complexity via execution-mode:
- direct: 1-line typo fix — Main Claude calls specifier, which implements the change itself + committer commits. Minimal subagent overhead.
- pipeline: Moderate fix — Main Claude calls builder → verifier → committer in sequence. Main Claude only orchestrates, minimizing its own context usage
- full: Complex features — full planning, decomposition, and tracking
All three modes output to works/WORK-NN/ with identical artifact structure (PLAN.md + result.md + COMMITTER DONE callback), ensuring Runner integration works regardless of mode.
Structured Agent Communication
Instead of ambiguous natural language prompts, agents communicate using structured XML format:
Dispatch Format (Caller → Receiver):
<dispatch to="builder" work="WORK-03" task="TASK-00" execution-mode="pipeline">
<context>
<project>uc-taskmanager</project>
<language>ko</language>
<plan-file>works/WORK-03/PLAN.md</plan-file>
</context>
<task-spec>
<file>works/WORK-03/TASK-00.md</file>
<title>공통 시스템 프롬프트 섹션 식별 및 XML 스키마 설계</title>
<action>implement</action>
</task-spec>
<cache-hint sections="output-language-rule,build-commands"/>
</dispatch>Result Format (Receiver → Caller):
<task-result work="WORK-03" task="TASK-00" agent="builder" status="PASS">
<summary>Created shared-prompt-sections.md and xml-schema.md</summary>
<files-changed>
<file action="created" path="agents/shared-prompt-sections.md">Common sections with cache_control</file>
</files-changed>
<verification>
<check name="file_existence" status="PASS">Both files created</check>
</verification>
</task-result>Benefits:
- Clarity: Explicit XML structure eliminates ambiguous natural language ("Pass the context" ← confusing vs.
<context>← explicit) - Lower Output Tokens: Agents don't generate clarification questions; receivers parse XML directly
- Prompt Caching: Common sections (Output Language Rule, Build Commands) are marked with Anthropic API
cache_control, saving up to 90% on repeated tokens - Scalability: Cache hit rates improve with WORK count (5 TASKs at ~0.03 tokens/token vs 2K+ tokens without cache)
See agents/xml-schema.md for complete format, and agents/shared-prompt-sections.md for cacheable sections.
Sliding Window Context Transfer
Each subagent starts with an empty context — the cost of isolation. The sliding window system minimizes token waste when passing context between agents and across dependent TASKs.
Rule: the further back, the less detail:
| Distance | Detail Level | Content |
|---|---|---|
| Immediate predecessor | FULL |
what + why + caution + incomplete |
| 2 steps back | SUMMARY |
what only (1–3 lines) |
| 3+ steps back | DROP |
not transmitted |
Each agent outputs a context-handoff — a structured reasoning document, not just a result log:
<context-handoff from="builder" detail-level="FULL">
<what>auth.ts modified — added JWT silent refresh logic</what>
<why>Previous code returned 401 immediately on expiry. Silent refresh improves UX.</why>
<caution>Coupled to session.ts setSession(). Changes there may cause side effects.</caution>
<incomplete>Unit tests not written. Verifier should check.</incomplete>
</context-handoff>Result responsibility shift: builder focuses on implementation only, writing a progress.md checkpoint. The committer synthesizes builder + verifier context-handoffs into the final result.md. This prevents result files from being skipped when builder is context-pressured.
Estimated token savings: ~48% on a 3-TASK dependency chain vs. the naive approach of passing full results forward.
See docs/spec_sliding-window-context.md for full design details.
External System Callback (Optional)
uc-taskmanager is generic by default. To integrate with an external system (e.g., a CI/CD backend), add callback URLs to CLAUDE.md:
## Task Callbacks
TaskCallback: http://localhost:3000/api/v1/runner/{{executionId}}/task-result
ProgressCallback: http://localhost:3000/api/v1/runner/{{executionId}}/task-progress
CallbackToken: <your-token>- No config → works as-is, no external calls made
- TaskCallback → committer POSTs result after each TASK commit
- ProgressCallback → builder POSTs checkpoint after each progress.md update
- Callback failures are non-fatal — a warning is printed and the pipeline continues
See docs/spec_callback-integration.md for payload schema and implementation guide.
Output Language
Output language is resolved from CLAUDE.md in your project. No manual configuration needed after first setup.
1. Check CLAUDE.md for "Language: xx"
├─ Found → use that language
└─ Not found ↓
2. Ask: "Would you like to set the output language? (e.g., ko, en, ja)"
├─ User specifies → write to CLAUDE.md + use it
└─ User declines ↓
3. Auto-detect system locale → write to CLAUDE.md as defaultOnce set, stored in CLAUDE.md and never asked again. Priority: PLAN.md > CLAUDE.md > en
By default, all output including git commit messages and code comments uses the configured language:
| Item | Default | Override |
|---|---|---|
| PLAN.md / TASK descriptions | Language | — |
| Result reports | Language | — |
| Git commit messages (title/body) | Language | CommitLanguage: en |
| Code comments | Language | CommentLanguage: en |
Commit type prefix (feat, fix...) |
Always English | — |
| File names, paths, commands | Always English | — |
Per-Category Override
Add to CLAUDE.md to override specific categories:
## Language
ko
CommitLanguage: en
CommentLanguage: enThis gives you ko for plans/reports but en for commits and code comments — useful for open-source projects or global teams.

Optional: MCP Configuration
Serena MCP — Symbol-Level Code Navigation
Special thanks to the Oraios team for building and open-sourcing Serena. Their symbol-level code navigation tools make a real difference in reducing token usage and improving edit precision for AI agents.
The builder agent integrates with Serena MCP for symbol-level code exploration. When Serena is available, builder follows this exploration hierarchy instead of reading entire files:
| Step | Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | list_dir |
Directory structure (replaces find) |
| 2 | get_symbols_overview |
File symbol map before any file read |
| 3 | find_symbol(depth=1) |
Class/module method list |
| 4 | find_symbol(include_body=true) |
Precise body read for target symbol only |
| 5 | find_referencing_symbols |
Impact analysis before editing |
| 6 | Read |
Last resort when above tools are insufficient |
This reduces read tokens by 30–50% on large codebases by reading only the symbols needed, not entire files.
Disable Auto Browser Launch
Serena opens a web dashboard in your browser on every startup. To disable this, add --open-web-dashboard False to your ~/.claude.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"serena": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"--from", "git+https://github.com/oraios/serena",
"serena", "start-mcp-server",
"--context", "ide-assistant",
"--project", ".",
"--open-web-dashboard", "False"
]
}
}
}The dashboard is still available at http://localhost:PORT — it just won't auto-open on startup.
The Bigger Picture
This agent is designed to work with an SDD-based requirement management and automated development system — a server application that links requirement management → automated development → plans and artifacts. The full system architecture is documented in docs/spec_SDD_with_ucagent_requirement.md. Use it as a reference to build your own system tailored to your needs.
