Configurable Provider Base URLs

Configure custom base URLs for AI providers using environment variables like OPENAI_BASE_URL, enabling use of proxy services and alternative endpoints.

Minor Changes

  • #840 b40139c Thanks @Crunchyman-ralph! - Can now configure baseURL of provider with <PROVIDER>_BASE_URL

    • For example:
      • OPENAI_BASE_URL

  • #840 b40139c Thanks @Crunchyman-ralph! - Added comprehensive rule profile management:

    New Profile Support: Added comprehensive IDE profile support with eight specialized profiles: Claude Code, Cline, Codex, Cursor, Roo, Trae, VS Code, and Windsurf. Each profile is optimized for its respective IDE with appropriate mappings and configuration. Initialization: You can now specify which rule profiles to include at project initialization using --rules <profiles> or -r <profiles> (e.g., task-master init -r cursor,roo). Only the selected profiles and configuration are included. Add/Remove Commands: task-master rules add <profiles> and task-master rules remove <profiles> let you manage specific rule profiles and MCP config after initialization, supporting multiple profiles at once. Interactive Setup: task-master rules setup launches an interactive prompt to select which rule profiles to add to your project. This does not re-initialize your project or affect shell aliases; it only manages rules. Selective Removal: Rules removal intelligently preserves existing non-Task Master rules and files and only removes Task Master-specific rules. Profile directories are only removed when completely empty and all conditions are met (no existing rules, no other files/folders, MCP config completely removed). Safety Features: Confirmation messages clearly explain that only Task Master-specific rules and MCP configurations will be removed, while preserving existing custom rules and other files. Robust Validation: Includes comprehensive checks for array types in MCP config processing and error handling throughout the rules management system.

    This enables more flexible, rule-specific project setups with intelligent cleanup that preserves user customizations while safely managing Task Master components.

    • Resolves #338

  • #840 b40139c Thanks @Crunchyman-ralph! - Make task-master more compatible with the "o" family models of OpenAI

    Now works well with:

    • o3
    • o3-mini
    • etc.

  • #840 b40139c Thanks @Crunchyman-ralph! - Add better support for python projects by adding pyproject.toml as a projectRoot marker

  • #840 b40139c Thanks @Crunchyman-ralph! - - Git Worktree Detection:

    • Now properly skips Git initialization when inside existing Git worktree
    • Prevents accidental nested repository creation
    • Flag System Overhaul:
      • --git/--no-git controls repository initialization
      • --aliases/--no-aliases consistently manages shell alias creation
      • --git-tasks/--no-git-tasks controls whether task files are stored in Git
      • --dry-run accurately previews all initialization behaviors
    • GitTasks Functionality:
      • New --git-tasks flag includes task files in Git (comments them out in .gitignore)
      • New --no-git-tasks flag excludes task files from Git (default behavior)
      • Supports both CLI and MCP interfaces with proper parameter passing

    Implementation Details:

    • Added explicit Git worktree detection before initialization
    • Refactored flag processing to ensure consistent behavior
    • Fixes #734

  • #840 b40139c Thanks @Crunchyman-ralph! - Add Claude Code provider support

    Introduces a new provider that enables using Claude models (Opus and Sonnet) through the Claude Code CLI without requiring an API key.

    Key features:

    • New claude-code provider with support for opus and sonnet models
    • No API key required - uses local Claude Code CLI installation
    • Optional dependency - won't affect users who don't need Claude Code
    • Lazy loading ensures the provider only loads when requested
    • Full integration with existing Task Master commands and workflows
    • Comprehensive test coverage for reliability
    • New --claude-code flag for the models command

    Users can now configure Claude Code models with: task-master models --set-main sonnet --claude-code task-master models --set-research opus --claude-code

    The @anthropic-ai/claude-code package is optional and won't be installed unless explicitly needed.

Patch Changes

  • #840 b40139c Thanks @Crunchyman-ralph! - Fix expand command preserving tagged task structure and preventing data corruption

    • Enhance E2E tests with comprehensive tag-aware expand testing to verify tag corruption fix
    • Add new test section for feature-expand tag creation and testing during expand operations
    • Verify tag preservation during expand, force expand, and expand --all operations
    • Test that master tag remains intact while feature-expand tag receives subtasks correctly
    • Fix file path references to use correct .taskmaster/config.json and .taskmaster/tasks/tasks.json locations
    • All tag corruption verification tests pass successfully, confirming the expand command tag corruption bug fix works as expected

  • #840 b40139c Thanks @Crunchyman-ralph! - Fix Cursor deeplink installation by providing copy-paste instructions for GitHub compatibility

  • #840 b40139c Thanks @Crunchyman-ralph! - Call rules interactive setup during init

  • #840 b40139c Thanks @Crunchyman-ralph! - Update o3 model price

  • #840 b40139c Thanks @Crunchyman-ralph! - Improves Amazon Bedrock support

  • #840 b40139c Thanks @Crunchyman-ralph! - Fix issues with task creation/update where subtasks are being created like id: <parent_task>.<subtask> instead of just id: <subtask>

  • #840 b40139c Thanks @Crunchyman-ralph! - Fixes issue with expand CLI command "Complexity report not found"

    • Closes #735
    • Closes #728
