Scopecraft Command

A powerful command-line tool and MCP server for managing Markdown-Driven Task Management (MDTM) files. Scopecraft helps you organize tasks, features, and development workflows with a structured approach.

Version 2.0: Now with two-state workflow (current/archive) and phase-based organization, parent tasks for complex features, and advanced subtask sequencing capabilities!

Key Features:

Works with any AI IDE (Cursor, Claude Desktop, etc.) via flexible project root configuration
Two-state workflow with phase-based task organization (current/archive + phase metadata)
Parent tasks with subtask sequencing and parallel execution
Supports MDTM format with TOML/YAML frontmatter
Provides both CLI and MCP server interfaces
Includes specialized Claude commands for feature development
Automated project type detection
Multi-project support with easy switching

Installation

Install from NPM

Global Installation (Recommended)

# Install globally with npm
npm install -g @scopecraft/cmd

# Or with yarn
yarn global add @scopecraft/cmd

# Or with bun
bun install -g @scopecraft/cmd

After installation, these commands will be available:

scopecraft / sc - CLI for task management
scopecraft-mcp / sc-mcp - MCP server (HTTP/SSE)
scopecraft-stdio / sc-stdio - MCP server (STDIO transport)

Using with npx (No Installation)

# Run CLI commands directly
npx @scopecraft/cmd sc task list
npx @scopecraft/cmd sc feature create "New Feature"

# Run MCP STDIO server
npx --package=@scopecraft/cmd scopecraft-stdio --root-dir /path/to/your/project

Install from Source

# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/scopecraft-ai/scopecraft-command.git
cd scopecraft-command

# Install dependencies
bun install

# Build project
bun run build

# Install globally
bun run install:global

Project Root Configuration

Scopecraft now works with any AI IDE! Configure your project root using one of these methods:

Quick Setup for AI IDEs

Cursor / Claude Desktop

# Start MCP server with your project
scopecraft-mcp --root-dir /path/to/your/project

Or add to your IDE's MCP configuration:

{
  "scopecraft": {
    "command": "scopecraft-mcp",
    "args": ["--root-dir", "/path/to/your/project"]
  }
}

Multiple Projects

Create ~/.scopecraft/config.json:

{
  "projects": {
    "frontend": { "path": "/projects/myapp/frontend" },
    "backend": { "path": "/projects/myapp/backend" }
  }
}

Then switch projects at runtime:

init_root /projects/myapp/backend

Configuration Methods

CLI Parameter: --root-dir /path/to/project
MCP Command: init_root /path/to/project
Config File: ~/.scopecraft/config.json
Environment: SCOPECRAFT_ROOT=/path/to/project

See Project Root Configuration Guide for detailed setup instructions.

Getting Started

# Initialize Scopecraft in your project
sc init

# Create your first task
sc task create --title "My first feature" --type feature

# List your tasks
sc task list

Quick Start

Basic Task Management

# List all tasks
sc task list
sc task list --current    # Show only active tasks  
sc task list --phase backlog  # Show backlog items by phase

# Create a new task (goes to current with phase=backlog by default)
sc task create --title "Implement user authentication" --type feature

# Update task status
sc task update TASK-123 --status "In Progress"
sc task start TASK-123    # Shortcut for marking as "In Progress"
sc task complete TASK-123 # Shortcut for marking as "Done"

# View task details
sc task get TASK-123

Parent Tasks (Complex Features)

# Create a parent task with subtasks
sc parent create --title "User Authentication" --type feature

# Add subtasks to a parent
sc parent add-subtask auth-05K --title "Design login UI"
sc parent add-subtask auth-05K --title "Implement API" --after 01-design

# View parent task with tree visualization
sc parent show auth-05K --tree

# Work with subtasks (use full path or --parent option)
sc task update current/auth-05K/02-impl-api --status "In Progress"
sc task complete 02-impl-api --parent auth-05K

Task Sequencing

# Make subtasks run in parallel
sc task parallelize 02-api 03-ui --parent auth-05K

# Reorder subtasks
sc task resequence auth-05K --from 1,2,3 --to 3,1,2

# Convert simple task to parent with subtasks
sc task promote simple-auth-05M --subtasks "Design,Build,Test"

Workflow Management

# Two-state workflow: current (with phases) → archive
sc task create --title "New feature"          # Creates in current/ with phase=backlog
sc task update new-feature-05A --status "In Progress"  # Status changes, stays in current/
sc task update new-feature-05A --phase active          # Change phase to active
sc task complete new-feature-05A              # Moves to archive/ when done

# Move parent tasks to archive when complete
sc parent move auth-05K archive

Environment and Session Management

Scopecraft provides integrated development environments and Claude session management.

Environment Commands

# Create or switch to task environment
sc env auth-feature-05A

# List active environments
sc env list

# Get environment path for shell integration
cd "$(sc env path auth-feature-05A)"

# Close environment when done
sc env close auth-feature-05A --force

Interactive Development (Work Command)

# Interactive task selection
sc work

# Work on specific task
sc work auth-feature-05A

# Work with additional context
sc work auth-feature-05A "Focus on security requirements"

# Resume previous session
sc work --session session-abc123

Autonomous Development (Dispatch Command)

# Autonomous execution in Docker
sc dispatch auth-feature-05A

# Execute in tmux session
sc dispatch auth-feature-05A --exec tmux

# Execute in specific mode
sc dispatch auth-feature-05A --mode implementation

# Resume autonomous session
sc dispatch --session session-xyz789

Composable Workflows

# Complete development workflow
sc task create --title "New feature" --type feature --phase backlog
sc env new-feature-05A
sc work new-feature-05A

# Or autonomous processing
sc dispatch new-feature-05A --exec tmux

Legacy Worktree Management

For compatibility with existing workflows:

# Start a task worktree
tw-start TASK-123

# Start a feature worktree
tw-feat-start FEATURE_auth

# List active worktrees
tw-list

# Finish and merge work
tw-finish TASK-123

Entity-Command Pattern

Commands follow an intuitive pattern:

<entity> <command> [options]

Entities:

task - Task management (simple and subtasks)
parent - Parent task management (folders with subtasks)
env - Development environment management (worktrees)
work - Interactive Claude development sessions
dispatch - Autonomous Claude execution
area - Area directories (organizational units)
workflow - Task sequences and status
template - Task templates

Examples:

# Task management
sc task list
sc task create --title "Feature X" --type feature

# Environment management
sc env feature-x-05A
sc env list

# Interactive development
sc work feature-x-05A

# Autonomous execution
sc dispatch feature-x-05A --exec tmux

# Legacy format (still supported)
sc list
