Tasks

Anthracode tasks — break work into trackable steps the agent plans, executes, and checks off across a session.

Tasks break a goal into trackable steps the agent plans and checks off.

When you give Anthracode a multi-step goal, it creates a task list. Each step is tracked, executed, and checked off as the agent works.

The current task list shows in the TUI. Tasks persist to .anthracode/tasks/ so they survive a restart.

Long-running work (dev servers, watchers, builds) can run in the background while you keep working. Manage them with the background process manager — pty_start, pty_exec, pty_read, pty_stop.
