Task #100: Task Number Audit & Standardization

Created: April 8, 2026
Created By: Chronicler #69 (The Surveyor)
Priority: P4 (Low - Address when issues arise)
Status: Open


Overview

During the mobile task index implementation, we discovered that many legacy tasks never had official task numbers assigned. We added task_number: to YAML frontmatter for 26 tasks that had documented numbers, but ~30 tasks remain unnumbered.

Current State

  • 57 total task folders in docs/tasks/
  • 26 tasks have task_number: in frontmatter
  • ~31 tasks are unnumbered legacy tasks

When To Address

Monitor for issues:

  • New tasks should ALWAYS include task_number: in frontmatter
  • If unnumbered tasks cause confusion, batch-assign numbers
  • If mobile task index sorting is problematic, prioritize this task

Standard for New Tasks

All new tasks MUST include in frontmatter:

---
task_number: XXX
status: open | blocked | complete
priority: P1 | P2 | P3 | P4
owner: Michael | Meg | Holly
created: YYYY-MM-DD
---

Next Available Task Number

Check highest existing number before creating new tasks:

grep -rh "^task_number:" docs/tasks/ | sort -t: -k2 -n | tail -1

As of April 8, 2026: Next available = #101

Archive Threshold

Per FFG-STD (established April 8, 2026 by Chronicler #69):

Archive if ≥50KB OR ≥4 files — otherwise delete.
