Tasuku

Agent-first task management for codebases. Designed for AI agents working alongside humans.

Why Tasuku?

• Pull over push: Agents query when needed, no constant context injections
• Parallel-safe: Per-file locking for multiple agents working simultaneously
• Minimal context: Only load what's needed for the current task
• Human-readable: Markdown files with YAML frontmatter, editable by hand
• Git-friendly: One file per task means clean diffs and fewer merge conflicts

Installation

go install github.com/iheanyi/tasuku/cmd/tk@latest

Or build from source:

git clone https://github.com/iheanyi/tasuku.git
cd tasuku && go build -o tk ./cmd/tk
sudo mv tk /usr/local/bin/

Quick Start

1. Initialize and integrate

cd your-project
tk init                    # Create .tasuku/ directory
tk mcp install             # Enable tk_* tools in your AI editor
tk hooks install           # Context at session start, reminders at end
git add .tasuku/           # Tasks travel with your code

Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot CLI, Codex, and OpenCode. Restart your editor after installing.

OpenCode Setup

For OpenCode users, Tasuku provides both MCP tools and a plugin system:

tk hooks install --opencode    # Install OpenCode plugin hooks
tk mcp install --tool opencode # Install MCP server config

The OpenCode plugin provides:

• session.created: Shows project context at session start
• session.idle: Reminds about running timers
• todo.updated: Checks for project-level tasks
• tool.execute.after: Captures learnings from bash/task execution
• message.created: Context surfacing and nudges

Copy opencode.json.example to opencode.json to get started.

2. Your AI agent now has access to

MCP Tools (40+ tools, see docs/mcp.md):

• tk_add / tk_list / tk_done - Task management
• tk_learn / tk_decide - Knowledge capture
• tk_context - Load full project state

Slash Commands (Claude Code with plugin):

• /tasuku:pickup - Select and start a task
• /tasuku:complete - Mark done, capture learnings
• /tasuku:reflect - Extract learnings from recent work

3. CLI and TUI for humans

tk task list                 # See all tasks
tk task add "New feature"    # Add a task
tk task start <id>           # Start working
tk task done <id>            # Mark complete
tk learn "insight"           # Record a learning
tk ui                        # Terminal UI (j/k to navigate, ? for help)

Data Format

Tasks are Markdown files with YAML frontmatter:

.tasuku/
├── tasks/task-id.md      # One file per task
├── archive/              # Archived tasks
├── context/
│   ├── learnings.md      # Recorded insights
│   └── decisions.md      # Architectural decisions
└── index.json            # Auto-generated for fast queries

Migration from Beads

tk migrate beads           # Convert .beads/ to .tasuku/
tk migrate beads --dry-run # Preview first
