Provides task awareness and enforces task lifecycle. Auto-loaded when discussing work, features, bugs, or implementation. Ensures tasks are created, started, and completed properly.
From cortexnpx claudepluginhub jsvitolo/cortex-plugins --plugin cortexThis skill uses the workspace's default tool permissions.
Searches, retrieves, and installs Agent Skills from prompts.chat registry using MCP tools like search_skills and get_skill. Activates for finding skills, browsing catalogs, or extending Claude.
Searches prompts.chat for AI prompt templates by keyword or category, retrieves by ID with variable handling, and improves prompts via AI. Use for discovering or enhancing prompts.
Compares coding agents like Claude Code and Aider on custom YAML-defined codebase tasks using git worktrees, measuring pass rate, cost, time, and consistency.
You MUST track all work through Cortex tasks.
!cx status 2>/dev/null
!cx ls -s progress 2>/dev/null || echo "No tasks in progress"
!cx ls -s review 2>/dev/null || echo "No tasks in review"
ALWAYS check if a task exists first:
cx ls | grep -i "relevant keyword"
If no task exists, CREATE ONE:
cx add "Clear, actionable title"
Before writing ANY code, START the task:
cx start CX-N
Keep task in progress while working:
cx edit CX-NWhen implementation is done:
# If needs review
cx mv CX-N review
# If fully complete
cx done CX-N
After committing:
git commit -m "feat: implement auth (CX-15)"| Action | Command |
|---|---|
| List all | cx ls |
| List by status | cx ls -s progress |
| Create task | cx add "title" |
| Show details | cx show CX-N |
| Start working | cx start CX-N |
| Move to review | cx mv CX-N review |
| Complete | cx done CX-N |
| Edit | cx edit CX-N |
!cx memory ls -n 3 2>/dev/null || echo "No memories yet"
Before implementing, check if there are relevant learnings:
cx memory search "relevant query"
At session end, capture what was learned:
echo "Task: [summary]
Work Done:
- [items]
Lessons Learned:
- [learnings]" | cx memory diary --task CX-N
cx start before writing codecx done when work is donecx memory search for past context
