## Executive Summary

The Mahavishnu Task Orchestration System (MTOS) is a natural language-powered task management platform designed specifically for multi-repository software development ecosystems. It leverages the existing Mahavishnu ecosystem components (Akosha, Dhruva, Session-Buddy, Crackerjack) to provide intelligent task creation, semantic search, predictive insights, and seamless workflow orchestration.

### Key Differentiators

Unlike existing task management tools, MTOS is:

1. **Ecosystem-Native**: Built on top of existing Mahavishnu components (Akosha for semantic search, Dhruva for workflow config, Session-Buddy for context, Crackerjack for quality gates)

2. **Developer-Centric**: Worktree-aware, quality gate integrated, git-native workflow

3. **Semantic**: Uses vector embeddings and knowledge graphs for intelligent task discovery and dependency inference

4. **Predictive**: AI-powered pattern detection predicts blockers, task duration, and optimal task ordering

5. **Multi-Repository**: Coordinates tasks across multiple repos with dependency management and cross-repo workflows

### Target Users

- **Developers** working across multiple repositories
- **Technical Leads** coordinating cross-repo features
- **Open Source Maintainers** managing external issues
- **Engineering Teams** needing AI-assisted task prioritization

### Unique MTOS Advantages

1. **No Existing Tool Combines**:
   - Semantic search (Akosha vector DB)
   - Multi-repository coordination
   - Worktree integration
   - Quality gate validation
   - Natural language task creation
   - Predictive pattern detection

2. **Ecosystem Synergy**:
   - Uses existing components (no reinventing the wheel)
   - Leverages Session-Buddy for context
   - Integrates with Crackerjack for quality
   - Coordinates via Dhruva workflows
   - Semantic search via Akosha

3. **Developer Workflow Integration**:
   - Automatic worktree creation when starting tasks
   - Quality gates run before task completion
   - Git-aware (branches, commits, PRs)
   - Cross-repo dependency management

### Market Gaps Identified

**What's Missing in Existing Tools:**

1. ❌ **Semantic Task Discovery**: No tool uses vector embeddings for "find me tasks related to authentication"
2. ❌ **Multi-Repository Coordination**: Most tools are single-repo or require manual cross-repo tracking
3. ❌ **Predictive Insights**: No tool predicts blockers or estimates task duration using ML
4. ❌ **Worktree Integration**: No tool integrates with git worktrees for isolated development
5. ❌ **Quality Gate Integration**: No tool integrates automated quality checks into task completion
6. ❌ **Natural Language Task Creation**: Limited NLP for task creation (most require forms)

**MTOS Fills All These Gaps ✅**

---

## Vision & Goals

### Vision

Create a unified task orchestration system that understands developer intent, coordinates work across multiple repositories, and leverages AI to predict and prevent blockers before they happen.

### Primary Goals

1. **Natural Language Interface**: Create and manage tasks using plain English
2. **Ecosystem Coordination**: Seamlessly coordinate tasks across multiple repositories
3. **Predictive Insights**: Use AI to detect patterns, predict blockers, and optimize workflows
4. **Developer-Centric**: Designed for actual development workflows (worktrees, quality gates, git)
5. **One-Way Sync**: Import external issues without polluting GitHub/GitLab
6. **Production Ready**: 99.9% availability, comprehensive monitoring, secure by default

### Non-Goals

- Bi-directional sync with GitHub/GitLab (one-way only, with approval)
- Enterprise project management (sprints, story points, burndown charts)
- Non-technical task tracking (marketing, sales, HR tasks)
- Replacing existing project management tools (complement, not replace)

### Updated Data Flow with Event Sourcing

```
User Input: "Create task to fix auth bug in session-buddy by Friday"

1. NLP Parser (Mahavishnu)
   ├─ Extract: repo=session-buddy, type=bug, priority=high, deadline=Friday
   ├─ Parse: Acceptance criteria from natural language
   └─ Confidence Score: 0.92 (high certainty)

2. Event Store (Event Sourcing)
   ├─ Event: TaskCreationRequested (timestamp, user_id, parsed_data)
   ├─ Store: Immutable event log in PostgreSQL
   └─ Publish: Event to message bus for consistency

3. Task Projection (Read Model)
   ├─ SQLite: Denormalized task view (fast queries)
   ├─ Akosha: Embedding + relationships + patterns
   └─ Session-Buddy: Creation context + conversation

4. Pattern Detection (Akosha)
   ├─ "Similar to task #123 (completed in 4h)"
   ├─ "Likely to block task #45"
   └─ "Tasks in auth scope take 2x longer than average"

5. Quality Gate (Crackerjack)
   ├─ Pre-completion: Tests pass, coverage >80%, no security issues
   ├─ Validation: Run before marking task complete
   └─ Enforcement: Block completion if gates fail
```

```

### Saga Pattern for Distributed Transactions

**Problem**: Creating a task involves multiple storage systems (PostgreSQL, Akosha, Session-Buddy)

**Solution**: Saga pattern with compensating transactions

```
Saga: Create Task

Step 1: Create task in PostgreSQL
  ✓ Success → Continue
  ✗ Failure → Rollback (nothing to undo)

Step 2: Store embedding in Akosha
  ✓ Success → Continue
  ✗ Failure → Compensate: Delete task from PostgreSQL

Step 3: Store context in Session-Buddy
  ✓ Success → Complete
  ✗ Failure → Compensate: Delete from Akosha, Delete from PostgreSQL

Step 4: Create worktree (if applicable)
  ✓ Success → Complete
  ✗ Failure → Compensate: Delete from Session-Buddy, Akosha, PostgreSQL
```

### Event Sourcing for Task History

**Events:**

1. `TaskCreationRequested` - Initial user request
2. `TaskCreated` - Task successfully created in all storage systems
3. `TaskAssigned` - Task assigned to user
4. `TaskStarted` - User started working on task
5. `TaskCompleted` - Task marked complete (after quality gates)
6. `TaskCancelled` - Task cancelled
7. `TaskFailed` - Quality gates failed

**Benefits:**
- Complete audit trail
- Temporal queries (task state at any point in time)
- Event replay for debugging
- CQRS implementation (command vs query separation)

---

## Security

### Authentication & Authorization

#### Multi-Provider Authentication

Mahavishnu supports multiple authentication providers:

1. **Claude Code Subscription** - Automatic detection via subscription check
2. **Qwen Free Service** - Fallback authentication
3. **Custom JWT** - Manual JWT token authentication

Configuration in `settings/mahavishnu.yaml`:
```yaml
auth:
  enabled: true
  algorithm: "HS256"
  expire_minutes: 60
  providers:
    - claude_code
    - qwen
    - jwt
```

#### Permission Model

**Permissions:**

- `READ_TASKS` - View tasks
- `CREATE_TASKS` - Create new tasks
- `UPDATE_TASKS` - Edit existing tasks
- `DELETE_TASKS` - Delete tasks
- `MANAGE_WORKTREES` - Create/remove worktrees
- `RUN_QUALITY_GATES` - Trigger quality checks
- `ADMIN` - Full system access

**Roles:**

| Role | Permissions |
|------|-------------|
| `viewer` | READ_TASKS |
| `developer` | READ_TASKS, CREATE_TASKS, UPDATE_TASKS, MANAGE_WORKTREES |
| `maintainer` | All except ADMIN |
| `admin` | All permissions |

### Input Sanitization

#### Webhook Authentication

**GitHub/GitLab Webhook Signature Validation:**

```python
def verify_webhook_signature(payload: bytes, signature: str, secret: str) -> bool:
    """
    Verify webhook signature using HMAC.

    Args:
        payload: Raw request body
        signature: X-Hub-Signature-256 header value
        secret: Webhook secret

    Returns:
        True if signature valid
    """
    hash_algorithm, github_signature = signature.split('=', 1)
    algorithm = hashlib.sha256

    mac = hmac.new(secret.encode(), msg=payload, digestmod=algorithm)
    expected_signature = mac.hexdigest()

    return hmac.compare_digest(expected_signature, github_signature)
```

#### Input Validation Framework

**Pydantic Models for All Inputs:**

```python
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field, validator
from typing import Literal
import re

class TaskCreateRequest(BaseModel):
    """Task creation request with comprehensive validation."""

    title: str = Field(..., min_length=1, max_length=200)
    description: str | None = Field(None, max_length=5000)
    repository: str = Field(..., pattern=r'^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$')
    priority: Literal['low', 'medium', 'high', 'critical'] = 'medium'
    deadline: str | None = None  # ISO 8601 format

    @validator('deadline')
    def validate_deadline(cls, v):
        """Validate deadline is future date in ISO 8601 format."""
        if v:
            try:
                from datetime import datetime
                deadline = datetime.fromisoformat(v)
                if deadline < datetime.now():
                    raise ValueError('Deadline must be in the future')
            except ValueError:
                raise ValueError('Invalid date format. Use ISO 8601')
        return v

    @validator('title')
    def sanitize_title(cls, v):
        """Remove potentially dangerous characters."""
        # Remove null bytes
        v = v.replace('\x00', '')
        # Limit length
        if len(v) > 200:
            raise ValueError('Title too long')
        return v
```

#### SQL Injection Prevention

**All Queries Use Parameterized Statements:**

```python
# ❌ BAD - String concatenation (SQL injection risk)
query = f"SELECT * FROM tasks WHERE id = {task_id}"

# ✅ GOOD - Parameterized query (safe)
async def get_task(task_id: int) -> Task | None:
    query = "SELECT * FROM tasks WHERE id = $1"
    row = await db.fetch_one(query, task_id)
    return Task(**row) if row else None
```

### Audit Logging

**Comprehensive Audit Trail:**

```python
from mahavishnu.core.audit import AuditLogger

audit = AuditLogger()

# Log all task operations
await audit.log(
    event_type="task_created",
    user_id=user_id,
    resource_type="task",
    resource_id=task.id,
    details={
        "title": task.title,
        "repository": task.repository,
        "priority": task.priority,
    },
    timestamp=datetime.now(UTC),
)

# Query audit trail
async def get_task_history(task_id: int) -> list[AuditEvent]:
    return await audit.query(
        resource_type="task",
        resource_id=str(task_id),
        limit=100,
    )
```

**Audit Log Storage:**

- Stored in PostgreSQL `audit_logs` table
- Indexed by `user_id`, `resource_type`, `resource_id`, `timestamp`
- Retention policy: 90 days (configurable)
- SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS compliant

### Authorization Checks

**All MCP Tools Include Authorization:**

```python
@mcp.tool()
@require_mcp_auth(required_permission=Permission.CREATE_TASKS)
async def create_task(
    user_id: str,
    title: str,
    repository: str,
    **kwargs
) -> dict[str, Any]:
    """
    Create a new task.

    Args:
        user_id: Authenticated user ID
        title: Task title
        repository: Repository nickname

    Returns:
        Created task details
    """
    # Permission check already done by decorator
    # Additional business logic validation
    if not user_has_repo_access(user_id, repository):
        raise PermissionError(f"User {user_id} cannot access {repository}")

    # Create task...
```

### Capacity Planning

#### Scaling Guidelines

**Database (PostgreSQL):**

| Concurrent Users | vCPU | RAM | Storage | Connection Pool |
|------------------|------|-----|---------|-----------------|
| < 50 | 2 | 4GB | 50GB SSD | 25 |
| 50-200 | 4 | 8GB | 100GB SSD | 50 |
| 200-500 | 8 | 16GB | 200GB SSD | 100 |
| 500+ | 16+ | 32GB+ | 500GB+ SSD | 200+ |

**Redis Cache:**

| Cache Size | RAM | Connections |
|------------|-----|-------------|
| Small (<1GB) | 2GB | 1,000 |
| Medium (1-5GB) | 8GB | 5,000 |
| Large (5-20GB) | 16GB | 10,000 |
| XL (20GB+) | 32GB+ | 20,000+ |

**Application Servers:**

| Requests/sec | Instances | vCPU/Instance | RAM/Instance |
|--------------|-----------|---------------|--------------|
| < 10 | 1 | 2 | 4GB |
| 10-50 | 2 | 2 | 4GB |
| 50-200 | 4 | 4 | 8GB |
| 200-500 | 6+ | 4 | 8GB |
| 500+ | 10+ | 8 | 16GB |

### Deployment Strategy

#### Blue-Green Deployment

**Phase 1: Deploy to Blue Environment**
1. Create new blue infrastructure (Kubernetes namespace, DB replica)
2. Run migrations on blue DB
3. Deploy new version to blue
4. Run smoke tests against blue
5. If tests pass: proceed

**Phase 2: Switch Traffic**
1. Update load balancer to send 10% traffic to blue
2. Monitor metrics (error rate, latency)
3. Gradually increase to 50%, then 100%
4. Monitor for 1 hour

**Phase 3: Rollback Plan**
If issues detected:
1. Immediately switch 100% traffic back to green
2. Investigate issues in blue
3. Fix and redeploy to blue
4. Repeat Phase 2

**Phase 4: Cleanup**
1. Keep green environment for 24 hours
2. If no issues, deprovision green
3. Blue becomes new production

### Disaster Recovery

#### Backup Strategy

**Daily Backups:**
- PostgreSQL: `pg_dump` to S3/GCS (30-day retention)
- Akosha: Vector DB snapshot + graph export
- Session-Buddy: Session export (JSON)

**Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR):**
- PostgreSQL WAL archiving to S3/GCS
- Can restore to any point in last 7 days
- RTO: 1 hour, RPO: 5 minutes

**Recovery Procedures:**

1. **Database Failure:**
   - Promote standby replica to primary
   - Update connection strings
   - RTO: 5 minutes, RPO: 0 seconds (streaming replication)

2. **Application Server Failure:**
   - Kubernetes auto-replacement
   - Health check fails → new pod created
   - RTO: 2 minutes

3. **Region Failure:**
   - Multi-region deployment (active-passive)
   - DNS failover to secondary region
   - RTO: 30 minutes, RPO: 5 minutes

## User Experience

### Command Palette Pattern

**UX Review Finding #1 (P0 - Blocking): Missing command palette**

**Solution:** Implement Ctrl+K fuzzy search for all commands

**Implementation:**

```python
from prompt_toolkit import prompt
from prompt_toolkit.completion import FuzzyWordCompleter
from prompt_toolkit.key_binding import KeyBindings

kb = KeyBindings()

@kb.add('c-k')
def _(event):
    "Command palette activation"
    # Show command palette
    pass

async def show_command_palette():
    """Show fuzzy search command palette."""
    commands = [
        'create-task',
        'list-tasks',
        'search-tasks',
        'start-task',
        'complete-task',
        'create-worktree',
        'run-quality-gates',
        # ... all commands
    ]

    command_completer = FuzzyWordCompleter(commands)

    user_input = prompt(
        '> ',
        completer=command_completer,
        complete_while_typing=True,
        key_bindings=kb,
    )

    return user_input
```

**Benefits:**
- Discoverable: Users can search for commands without memorizing
- Fast: Fuzzy search matches partial input
- Keyboard-driven: No mouse needed
- Consistent: Same pattern across CLI, TUI, GUI

### Onboarding Flow

### Error Recovery Guidance

**UX Review Finding #4 (P0 - Blocking): Error messages lack recovery guidance**

**Solution:** Structured error messages with actionable next steps

**Error Message Template:**

```python
class TaskOrchestrationError(Exception):
    """Base exception with recovery guidance."""

    def __init__(
        self,
        message: str,
        error_code: str,
        recovery_steps: list[str],
        documentation_url: str | None = None,
    ):
        self.message = message
        self.error_code = error_code
        self.recovery_steps = recovery_steps
        self.documentation_url = documentation_url

    def to_dict(self) -> dict[str, Any]:
        return {
            "error": self.error_code,
            "message": self.message,
            "recovery_steps": self.recovery_steps,
            "documentation": self.documentation_url,
        }

# Example usage
raise TaskOrchestrationError(
    message="Failed to create worktree: directory already exists",
    error_code="WORKTREE_EXISTS",
    recovery_steps=[
        "1. Check if worktree already exists: mhv worktree list",
        "2. Remove existing worktree: mhv worktree remove <path>",
        "3. Or use a different worktree name",
    ],
    documentation_url="https://docs.mahavishnu.org/errors/worktree-exists",
)
```

**User sees:**
```
❌ Error: WORKTREE_EXISTS

Failed to create worktree: directory already exists

Recovery Steps:
1. Check if worktree already exists: mhv worktree list
2. Remove existing worktree: mhv worktree remove <path>
3. Or use a different worktree name

Documentation: https://docs.mahavishnu.org/errors/worktree-exists
```

### Command Shorthands

**UX Review Finding #2 (P1): No command shorthands**

**Solution:** Aliases for common operations

**Command Aliases:**

| Full Command | Shorthand | Usage |
|--------------|-----------|-------|
| `mhv task create` | `mhv tc` | Quick task creation |
| `mhv task list` | `mhv tl` | List tasks |
| `mhv task search` | `mhv ts` | Semantic search |
| `mhv task start` | `mhv start` | Start task |
| `mhv task complete` | `mhv done` | Mark task complete |
| `mhv worktree create` | `mhv wc` | Create worktree |
| `mhv worktree list` | `mhv wl` | List worktrees |

### Accessibility

**UX Review Finding #10 (P0): No accessibility considerations**

**Solution:** WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance

**Implementation:**

1. **Color Contrast**
   - All text has minimum 4.5:1 contrast ratio (WCAG AA)
   - Interactive elements have 3:1 contrast ratio
   - Tools: `pa11y` for automated testing

2. **Keyboard Navigation**
   - All features accessible via keyboard
   - Tab order follows logical flow
   - Focus indicators visible on all interactive elements

3. **Screen Reader Support**
   - Semantic HTML (TUI/GUI)
   - ARIA labels for interactive elements
   - Screen reader testing with NVDA/VoiceOver

4. **Font Sizing**
   - Support 200% zoom without loss of functionality
   - Relative units (rem, em) instead of pixels

5. **Testing:**
   ```bash
   # Automated accessibility testing
   pa11y http://localhost:3000

   # Manual screen reader testing
   # Test with NVDA (Windows) and VoiceOver (macOS)
   ```

### Modern TUI Patterns

   - Markdown rendering for descriptions
   - Tables with sortable columns

4. **Split Panes**
   - Task list on left, task details on right
   - Resizable panes with mouse or keyboard

5. **Theme Support**
   - Light and dark themes
   - Customizable color schemes

**Implementation (Textual):**

```python
from textual.app import App, ComposeResult
from textual.widgets import Header, Footer, DataTable, Static

class TaskOrchestrationTUI(App):
    """Modern TUI for task orchestration."""

    CSS = """
    Screen {
        background: $background;
    }
    DataTable {
        background: $surface;
    }
    """

    def compose(self) -> ComposeResult:
        yield Header()
        yield DataTable()
        yield Static(id="task_details")
        yield Footer()

    def on_mount(self) -> None:
        table = self.query_one(DataTable)
        table.add_columns("ID", "Title", "Status", "Priority")
        # Load tasks...

    def on_data_table_row_selected(self, event: DataTable.RowSelected) -> None:
        """Show task details when row selected."""
        task_details = self.query_one("#task_details", Static)
        task_details.update(f"Task {event.row_key} selected")
```

## Storage Strategy

### Hybrid Storage Architecture (Updated v2.0)

**Migration from SQLite to PostgreSQL for Production:**

| Storage Layer | Use Case | Technology | Migration Path |
|---------------|----------|------------|----------------|
| **Primary** | Core task data, events, projections | PostgreSQL 15+ | Migrate SQLite → PostgreSQL using pg_dump |
| **Semantic** | Vector embeddings, similarity search | Akosha (pgvector) | Already using PostgreSQL + pgvector |
| **Context** | Session memory, conversation history | Session-Buddy | Already using PostgreSQL |
| **Cache** | Frequent query results, session data | Redis | Add Redis cache layer |

### Database Schema (PostgreSQL)

**Tables:**

```sql
-- Tasks table (core data)
CREATE TABLE tasks (
    id BIGSERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
    title VARCHAR(200) NOT NULL,
    description TEXT,
    repository VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
    status VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL DEFAULT 'pending',

    assigned_to UUID,
    created_at TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL DEFAULT NOW(),
    updated_at TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL DEFAULT NOW(),
    completed_at TIMESTAMPTZ,
    deadline TIMESTAMPTZ,
    worktree_path TEXT,
    embedding VECTOR(1536),  -- OpenAI embeddings
    metadata JSONB DEFAULT '{}',
);

-- Indexes for performance
CREATE INDEX idx_tasks_repository ON tasks(repository);
CREATE INDEX idx_tasks_status ON tasks(status);
CREATE INDEX idx_tasks_priority ON tasks(priority);
CREATE INDEX idx_tasks_created_by ON tasks(created_by);
CREATE INDEX idx_tasks_assigned_to ON tasks(assigned_to);
CREATE INDEX idx_tasks_embedding ON tasks USING ivfflat(embedding vector_cosine_ops);

-- Event sourcing log (append-only)

CREATE INDEX idx_audit_logs_resource ON audit_logs(resource_type, resource_id);
CREATE INDEX idx_audit_logs_created_at ON audit_logs(created_at);
```

### Caching Strategy (Redis)

**Cache Keys:**

```
task:{id} → Task JSON (TTL: 5 min)
task:list:{user_id} → List of tasks (TTL: 1 min)
task:search:{query_hash} → Search results (TTL: 10 min)
repo:{nickname}:tasks → All tasks for repo (TTL: 5 min)
```

**Cache Invalidation:**

```python
async def invalidate_task_cache(task_id: int):
    """Invalidate all cache entries for a task."""
    await redis.delete(f"task:{task_id}")

    # Invalidate user's task list cache
    task = await get_task(task_id)

) -> QualityGateResult:
    """
    Run Crackerjack quality gates for task.

    Returns:
        Quality gate result with pass/fail status
    """
    # Get worktree path
    task = await get_task(task_id)
    worktree_path = task.worktree_path

    if not worktree_path:
        raise QualityGateError("No worktree associated with task")

    # Call Crackerjack MCP tool
    result = await crackerjack.run_quality_checks(
        repository_path=worktree_path,
        checks=["pytest", "ruff", "mypy", "bandit"],
    )

    # Parse result
    passed = all(check["status"] == "passed" for check in result["checks"])

    return QualityGateResult(
        task_id=task_id,
        passed=passed,
        checks=result["checks"],
        summary=result["summary"],

## Open Questions

### Q1: Bi-directional Sync Support?

**Question**: Should we support bi-directional sync with GitHub/GitLab?

**Current Plan**: One-way sync with approval workflow (GitHub → Mahavishnu)

**Considerations**:
- Pro: Users expect two-way sync
- Con: Risk of polluting GitHub/GitLab with internal tasks
- Con: Complexity of conflict resolution

**Decision**: Defer to post-v1.0, gauge user demand

### Q2: Sprints and Story Points?

**Question**: Should we support agile/scrum features (sprints, story points, burndown)?

**Current Plan**: No - focus on developer-centric features

**Considerations**:
- Pro: Many teams use agile
- Con: Adds complexity, distracts from core value prop
- Con: Many existing tools already do this well

**Decision**: Defer to post-v1.0, use integration with existing tools

### Q3: Multi-Tenant Support?

**Question**: Should we support multiple organizations/teams?

**Current Plan**: Single-tenant (all users in same system)

**Considerations**:
- Pro: SaaS product potential
- Con: Added complexity (isolation, billing)
- Con: Not needed for open source ecosystem use case

**Decision**: Single-tenant for v1.0, evaluate multi-tenant demand later

### Q4: Mobile App?

**Question**: Should we build native mobile apps (iOS, Android)?

**Current Plan**: PWA with mobile-friendly web interface

**Considerations**:
- Pro: Better UX on mobile
- Con: Development overhead (2 platforms)
- Con: PWA provides good mobile experience

**Decision**: PWA for v1.0, evaluate native app demand later

### Q5: Non-Technical Task Support?

**Question**: Should we support non-technical tasks (marketing, sales, HR)?

**Current Plan**: No - focus on software development tasks

**Considerations**:
- Pro: Larger addressable market
- Con: Dilutes focus, different user needs
- Con: Many existing tools for general task management

**Decision**: Developer-centric for v1.0, expand later if demand exists

### Q6: Self-Hosting vs. SaaS?

**Question**: Should we offer self-hosted option, SaaS, or both?

**Current Plan**: Self-hosted (open source)

**Considerations**:
- Pro: Self-hosted appeals to open source community
- Pro: SaaS provides recurring revenue
- Con: SaaS requires infrastructure investment

**Decision**: Self-hosted for v1.0, evaluate SaaS demand later

### Q7: Task Templates?

**Question**: Should we support task templates (common task patterns)?

**Current Plan**: No - users create tasks from scratch

**Considerations**:
- Pro: Faster task creation for common patterns
- Con: Adds complexity to task creation flow
- Con: NLP parser should learn patterns automatically

**Decision**: Add templates in v1.1 based on user feedback

### Q8: AI Task Suggestions?

**Question**: Should AI suggest tasks to users (proactive recommendations)?

**Current Plan**: No - reactive (users create tasks)

**Considerations**:
- Pro: Proactive value, predicts needs
- Con: Might feel intrusive or annoying
- Con: Requires high confidence to be useful

**Decision**: Add in v1.1 as opt-in feature, gauge user response
