Standardized task management in VS Code

Keep the whole team on the same page. Committing the configuration to .vscode/mcp.json ensures everyone has access to `create_task` and `list_tasks` in their environment. Your team stops guessing about priorities. The AI uses these tools to keep everyone’s workload transparent and aligned with the project goals.

Real-time schedule awareness for engineers

Stop overcommitting yourself. Use `get_schedule` to let your agent see your actual daily availability before you start a long coding sprint. It keeps your calendar realistic. By checking your current tasks, the agent avoids scheduling meetings over your deep-work blocks.

Manage workspace tasks from the terminal

Control your project structure without leaving your editor. Run `list_workspaces` to see where you are logged in and switch your focus between different team goals. Everything stays organized. You can use `update_task` to adjust progress as you push your code, keeping your project status live for your team.
