Summary

  • Expanded all 52 stub task descriptions in the registry from vague one-liners into detailed agent prompts with methodology, scope, and output format sections
  • Preserved the 3 existing detailed descriptions (TaskSkillGroom, TaskTDReview, TaskPIIScanner) unchanged
  • TaskGroomer now has a self-referential description enabling autonomous audit of task description quality

Details

Each expanded description follows the pattern established by the existing detailed descriptions and includes:

  • WHAT TO LOOK FOR / WHAT TO EXAMINE — specific things the agent should check
  • METHODOLOGY — numbered steps for the agent to follow
  • OUTPUT FORMAT — expected fields and structure for findings
  • SCOPE — boundaries on what not to do (where applicable)

Automated by nightshift

Each task description now includes specific methodology, what to examine,
output format, and scope boundaries - making them actionable instructions
for AI agents during plan-implement-review loops. Three previously
detailed descriptions (TaskSkillGroom, TaskTDReview, TaskPIIScanner)
are preserved unchanged. TaskGroomer now has a self-referential
description enabling future autonomous auditing of task quality.
