Todo Command
Simple /todo command that manages a session todo list within Claude Code — add, complete, and list tasks inline without leaving your coding flow.
todo-slash-command
A .claude slash command to manage a simple todo list in your project's root directory, without having to leave Claude Code! Todos are stored in todos.md at your project root and automatically numbered for easy reference.
Inspiration
You ever been in the midst of a vibe-session and thought, "Oh, I need to fix the padding on that button". Well, no need to even leave the claude interface. Just use this /todo slash-command to create and manage a simple todo list for your project, from within your project.
Once the todos.md file is created in your project's root directory, you can probably even just tell claude to add to it without having to use the slash-command, but the slash-command provides some nifty commands for your benefit.
