Our review

Safely implements intermediate and advanced task management features: priorities, tags, search/filter/sort, recurring tasks, due dates with reminders, and Dapr Pub/Sub event publishing.

Strengths

  • Comprehensive extension of the Task model with enriched fields (priority, tags, recurrence).
  • Automated recurring task rescheduling on completion.
  • Event-driven reminder system via Dapr Pub/Sub.
  • Consistent frontend updates (forms, filters, sorting).

Limitations

  • Requires a deployed Dapr infrastructure for event publishing.
  • Increased complexity for advanced recurrence patterns (no visual editor).
  • May need performance review for a large number of recurring tasks.
When to use it

Use this skill when you need to enrich a task management application with advanced features (priorities, tags, recurrence) and an event-driven architecture.

When not to use it

Avoid this skill if your project does not require recurring tasks, reminders, or if Dapr infrastructure is not available.

Security analysis

Safe
Quality score85/100

The skill describes implementing software features with no destructive commands, no exfiltration, and no obfuscated payloads. It operates safely within development contexts.

Examples

Implement Task Priorities and Tags
Add priority (low, medium, high, urgent) and tags (JSON array) to the Task model and update the API endpoints for filtering and sorting by these new fields.
Set Up Recurring Tasks
Implement recurring tasks logic: when a task is completed, auto-reschedule it according to its recurrence pattern (daily, weekly, monthly). Ensure properties like priority and tags are preserved in recurring instances.
Integrate Due Dates with Dapr Reminders
Add due_date and notification_settings to the Task model. When a task reaches its due date, publish a 'reminder-due' event via Dapr Pub/Sub. Also create UI components for date picker and reminder configuration.

Advanced Features Updater

Overview

Safely implement Intermediate & Advanced features in backend/frontend:

  • Add priorities, tags, search/filter/sort to Task model & API
  • Implement recurring tasks logic (auto-reschedule on complete)
  • Add due dates + reminders (publish event on due date)
  • Extend UI forms, list views, filter UI
  • Use Dapr Pub/Sub for event publishing (no direct Kafka code)
  • Always reference constitution.md v5.0 & task ID

Pre-execution

Before making changes, ask: "Confirm feature spec approved?"

Post-execution

After changes: Run basic tests (add task, filter, recurring create)

Implementation Guidelines

1. Task Model Extensions

  • Extend the existing SQLModel Task model with:
    • priority field (enum: low, medium, high, urgent)
    • tags field (JSON/array field for categorization)
    • due_date field (datetime for deadlines)
    • recurrence_pattern field (JSON for recurring tasks)
    • notification_settings field (JSON for reminder preferences)

2. API Endpoints

  • Add new endpoints for advanced filtering and sorting
  • Implement recurrence handling endpoints
  • Add notification/reminders API
  • Maintain backward compatibility with existing endpoints
  • Ensure proper validation for all new fields

3. Recurring Tasks Logic

  • Implement auto-rescheduling when recurring tasks are completed
  • Handle different recurrence patterns (daily, weekly, monthly)
  • Preserve task properties in recurring instances
  • Manage recurrence termination conditions

4. Due Dates & Reminders

  • Add due date functionality with proper datetime handling
  • Implement reminder system that publishes events on due dates
  • Create notification settings for customizing reminders
  • Handle timezone considerations for due dates

5. Frontend Implementation

  • Enhance UI forms to support new task properties
  • Add filter UI for searching and sorting tasks
  • Implement priority and tag selection interfaces
  • Create recurrence pattern selection UI
  • Add due date picker and reminder settings panel

6. Dapr Pub/Sub Integration

  • Use Dapr Pub/Sub for all event publishing
  • Publish reminder-due events when tasks reach due date
  • Ensure proper event schemas and versioning
  • Handle event publishing failures gracefully

7. Testing Protocol

  • Run basic tests after implementing changes:
    • Add task with all new properties
    • Test filtering and sorting functionality
    • Create and complete recurring tasks
    • Verify reminder event publishing
  • Validate that existing functionality remains intact

8. Documentation & Compliance

  • Reference constitution.md v5.0 for implementation standards
  • Ensure all changes align with task specifications
  • Maintain proper code documentation
  • Follow security best practices for all new features
