Recipe Taskmaster GitHub Project Management Summary

Implementation Overview

We have successfully created a comprehensive GitHub project management system for the Recipe Taskmaster feature using GitHub Projects v2 and Just recipes. This system provides seamless integration between local development and cloud-based task tracking.

What Was Accomplished

1. GitHub Project Setup

• Created GitHub Project: "Recipe Taskmaster - MVP3 Sprint 2"
• Project URL: https://github.com/users/BasalGanglia/projects/11
• Configured authentication with proper 'project' scope

2. Custom Fields Created

• Priority: Low, Medium, High, Critical
• Recipe Type: Discovery, Task Breakdown, Ingredient Mgmt, Timer, API, UI, Analytics, Testing, Security, Documentation
• Cooking Time: Short (<30min), Medium (30-60min), Long (>60min)
• Difficulty: Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced
• AI Log: Text field for AI-generated insights

3. Just Recipe Integration

Added comprehensive GitHub project management recipes to the justfile:

Core Commands

• just gh-project-view - Open project in browser
• just gh-project-list - List all tasks in terminal
• just gh-task-report - Generate progress report
• just gh-task-export [json|csv] - Export tasks for AI analysis

Task Management

• just gh-task-create - Create new task
• just gh-tasks-batch-create - Batch create multiple tasks
• just gh-task-status - Update task status
• just gh-task-priority - Update task priority
• just gh-task-assign - Assign task to developer
• just gh-task-ai-log - Add AI analysis log

Utility Commands

• just gh-task-sync - Sync tasks to local JSON file
• just gh-task-menu - Interactive management menu

4. Tasks Created

Successfully created and added to the project:

• Task 46: TDD Setup for Recipe Taskmaster
• Task 47: Define Recipe Data Models (TDD)
• Task 48: Implement Recipe Discovery Engine (TDD)

5. Documentation

Created comprehensive guides:

• Recipe_Taskmaster_GitHub_Management_Guide.md - Complete usage guide
• justfile - Updated with 15+ new GitHub project recipes

Architecture Benefits

1. Local-First Development

• All operations available via command line
• No need to leave terminal/IDE
• Batch operations for efficiency

2. AI-Friendly Design

• JSON export for AI processing
• Structured data with custom fields
• AI log field for capturing insights

3. Team Collaboration

• Cloud-based tracking via GitHub Projects
• Standard GitHub issue integration
• Assignment and status tracking

4. Automation Ready

• Scriptable via Just recipes
• GitHub CLI integration
• Ready for CI/CD integration

Current Project Status

Recipe Taskmaster Progress Report
=================================

Status: Todo
Count: 3
Tasks:
  - Task 46: TDD Setup for Recipe Taskmaster
  - Task 47: Define Recipe Data Models (TDD)
  - Task 48: Implement Recipe Discovery Engine (TDD)

Next Steps

1. Complete Task Creation: Add remaining tasks (49-60) to the project
2. Start Implementation: Begin with Task 46 - TDD Setup
3. Regular Updates: Use just gh-task-status to track progress
4. AI Integration: Use just gh-task-ai-log to capture AI insights
5. Team Onboarding: Share the management guide with team members

Key Commands Reference

# Quick start
just gh-project-view        # Open in browser
just gh-project-list        # View all tasks
just gh-task-menu          # Interactive menu

# Task management
just gh-task-create "Title" "Description"
just gh-task-status 1 "In Progress"
just gh-task-priority 1 "High"

# AI workflow
just gh-task-export json > tasks.json
just gh-task-ai-log 1 "AI analysis results"
