Preflight Checklist

  • I have searched existing requests and this feature hasn't been requested yet
  • This is a single feature request (not multiple features)

Problem Statement

This amazing new world of the riff-and-refine workflow we currently find ourselves in (where the scope of an "idea" shifts/expands/contracts as we chat within a session) would make a live, editable task list in the panel incredibly useful. I know we have this inline but to be able to see things get added, crossed off, reprioritised in real time as the conversation evolves would be lovely.

Proposed Solution

Add TodoWrite items in the right-hand Tasks pane.

TL;DR

Implementing a live, editable task list in the right-hand Tasks pane could enhance the riff-and-refine workflow by allowing real-time updates and visibility of task additions, completions, and prioritizations.

Guidance

  • Consider integrating TodoWrite items into the Tasks pane to achieve the desired live editing functionality.
  • Evaluate the current architecture of the Tasks pane to determine the feasibility of adding dynamic, real-time updates.
  • Assess the potential impact on user experience and workflow efficiency to prioritize the development of this feature.
  • Investigate existing solutions or libraries that provide similar live editing capabilities to inform the implementation.

Notes

The proposed solution seems to focus on enhancing the user experience within the riff-and-refine workflow, but specific technical details about the current implementation and potential challenges are not provided.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Implement a basic version of the live task list using existing TodoWrite functionality, and then refine it based on user feedback and technical feasibility.
