Scope Task

Overview

This skill researches and scopes a single new task, then inserts it into an existing ROADMAP.md at the specified position. It follows the same discovery depth as project-init — web research, self-reflection, and user interview — but focused on one task rather than an entire project. The output is a properly formatted action item inserted into the roadmap, ready for do-task to implement.

Workflow

Step 1: Parse Arguments

Extract two pieces from the user's input:

• Task ID — numeric identifier in <phase>.<item> format (e.g., 2.5, 3.3)
• Task Title — the descriptive title following the ID (e.g., "Integrate Research into SPEC.md")

If either is missing or malformed, ask the user to provide the full invocation: /scope-task <phase.item> <Task Title>.

Step 2: Load Project Context
