|
|
### Long-term Evolution
|
|
This task management suite will evolve to support both:
|
|
|
|
1. **Strategic Level (BMad Planning)**:
|
|
- BMad project/epic management through web interface
|
|
- Planning document management (PRDs, architecture, research)
|
|
- BMad workflow methodology tracking
|
|
|
|
2. **Tactical Level (Task Master Replacement)**:
|
|
- Granular task management with full web UI
|
|
- All current Task Master CLI functionality via web interface
|
|
- Real-time collaboration and progress tracking
|
|
|
|
### Migration Path
|
|
- **Phase 1-2**: Build tactical task management (current scope)
|
|
- **Phase 3**: Add BMad strategic planning management
|
|
- **Phase 4**: Unified web interface for both strategic and tactical levels
