# Task 6 Status - TaskList Bindings (BLOCKED)

**Task**: Phase 2.1, Task 6 - TaskList Creation and Join Bindings
**Status**: BLOCKED - Waiting on Phase 1.3 (Gossip Overlay Integration)
**Date**: 2026-02-06

## Situation

Task 6 requires wrapping `agent.createTaskList()` and `agent.joinTaskList()` which call into the Rust core library's task list functionality. However, the Rust implementation returns TODO errors:

```rust
// From src/lib.rs:294
Err(error::IdentityError::Storage(std::io::Error::other(
    "TaskList creation not yet implemented",
)))
```

**Root Cause**: TaskList functionality depends on:
1. Gossip runtime (Phase 1.3 - status: "pending")
2. CRDT task list sync integration
3. Pub/sub topic subscription for task synchronization

## Dependency Chain

```
Phase 2.1 Task 6 (TaskList Bindings)
    ↓ depends on
Phase 1.3 (Gossip Overlay Integration)  ← BLOCKED HERE
    ↓ depends on  
Phase 1.4 (CRDT Task Lists)
```

## Attempted Work

1. Created `bindings/nodejs/src/task_list.rs` with full binding implementation
2. Started adding `create_task_list()` and `join_task_list()` methods to Agent
3. Hit compilation errors due to:
   - Missing `TaskSnapshot` export from x0x::crdt
   - TaskId doesn't have `from_string()` method (only `to_string()`)
   - CheckboxState enum variants are struct variants, not tuple variants
   - AgentBuilder struct accidentally removed during edits

## Decision

**SKIP Task 6-7 for now** and proceed to Tasks 8-12 which don't depend on gossip integration:

- ✅ Task 8: WASM Fallback Target Build
- ✅ Task 9: Platform-Specific Package Generation  
- ✅ Task 10: TypeScript Type Definitions Export
- ✅ Task 11: Comprehensive Integration Tests
- ✅ Task 12: Documentation and Examples

These tasks can be completed with the current Agent/Network/Event bindings (Tasks 1-5).

## Resolution Plan

**Option A (Recommended)**: Skip to Task 8 now, return to Tasks 6-7 after Phase 1.3 complete
**Option B**: Implement stub methods that return "not yet implemented" errors  
**Option C**: Block Phase 2.1 until Phase 1.3 complete (not ideal - delays progress)

## Recommendation

**Proceed with Option A**: Continue Phase 2.1 with Tasks 8-12. Once Phase 1.3 (Gossip Integration) is complete:
1. Return to implement Tasks 6-7
2. Add missing exports to x0x::crdt (TaskSnapshot, etc.)
3. Add TaskId::from_string() helper method
4. Complete TaskList bindings

This keeps Phase 2.1 moving forward while Phase 1.3 work happens in parallel (or next milestone iteration).
