This is a good idea. But the screenshots you have show lots of tasks in a project; how are you dispatching tasks (once planned) to an agent, and how are agents navigating the large number of markdown task content you're producing without blowing out their context budget?

For task dispatch I just ask Claude: please take over task 123.

Because of the embedded custom instructions Claude knows exactly how to proceed.

Since I never create too big tasks, what blows most context are actually the docs and the decisions markdown files.
