The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai).

Test report

Verdict: Tested · Works
Score: 9.6/10
Tested: Jul 15, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 10, 2026 · 4dd7ed0

Ran a real A/B: baseline produced one flat tasks.md checklist; following the skill produced a tasks/ tree with epic/story/bug/issue files, YAML frontmatter, dependency links, and an auto-generated INDEX.md — a genuinely more usable artifact for team tracking.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

What Create Task Files does

Exports planning tasks (from TodoWrite or a feature description) into a tasks/ directory of structured markdown files with YAML frontmatter, an auto-generated INDEX.md, and a README. Triggers on phrasing like "create tasks", "export tasks", "epic", "user story", or after a feature-planning step when the user wants file-based tracking.
