Arguments: $ARGUMENTS Parse subtask ID to remove, with option to convert to standalone task. ## Removing Subtasks Remove a subtask and optionally convert it back to a standalone task. ## Argument Parsing - "remove subtask 5.1" - "delete 5.1" - "convert 5.1 to task" → remove and convert - "5.1 standalone" → convert to standalone ## Execution Options ### 1. Delete Subtask \`\`\`bash task-master remove-subtask --id=<parentId.subtaskId> \`\`\` ### 2. Convert to Standalone \`\`\`bash task-master remove-subtask --id=<parentId.subtaskId> --convert \`\`\` ## Pre-Removal Checks 1. **Validate Subtask** - Verify subtask exists - Check completion status - Review dependencies 2. **Impact Analysis** - Other subtasks that depend on it - Parent task implications - Data that will be lost ## Removal Process ### For Deletion: 1. Confirm if subtask has work done 2. Update parent task estimates 3. Remove subtask and its data 4. Clean up dependencies ### For Conversion: 1. Assign new standalone task ID 2. Preserve all task data 3. Update dependency references 4. Maintain task history ## Smart Features - Warn if subtask is in-progress - Show impact on parent task - Preserve important data - Update related estimates ## Example Flows \`\`\` /taskmaster:remove-subtask 5.1 → Warning: Subtask #5.1 is in-progress → This will delete all subtask data → Parent task #5 will be updated Confirm deletion? (y/n) /taskmaster:remove-subtask 5.1 convert → Converting subtask #5.1 to standalone task #89 → Preserved: All task data and history → Updated: 2 dependency references → New task #89 is now independent \`\`\` ## Post-Removal - Update parent task status - Recalculate estimates - Show updated hierarchy - Suggest next actions`, 'solo' );
