Break down work into executable units.

Usage

/sdd.tasks [feature-id]

Arguments

Argument	Description
feature-id	Feature ID (defaults to most recently written spec if omitted)

Behavior

The AI breaks down the implementation plan into work units:

1. Analyze the plan
2. Define tasks
3. Set dependencies
4. Assign priorities

Generated File

.sdd/specs/<feature-id>/tasks.md

Task Size Criteria

• Completable within 2-4 hours
