Sqlite Provider

Expected tables: tasks, task_dependencies, teams, sprints, intake_log.

If any table is missing, run the init script to auto-repair:

bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/init-db.sh "<dbPath>"

CRUD Operations

Create Task

sqlite3 "<dbPath>" "INSERT INTO tasks (title, description, acceptance_criteria, status, priority, executor, requires_review, execution_plan, working_directory, assignee) VALUES ('<title>', '<description>', '<criteria>', '<status>', '<priority>', '<executor>', <0|1>, '<plan>', '<dir>', '<assignee_json>'); SELECT last_insert_rowid();"

To get the generated ID, use:

sqlite3 "<dbPath>" "INSERT INTO tasks (title, status) VALUES ('<title>', 'Backlog') RETURNING id;"

IMPORTANT: Escape single quotes in values by doubling them: ' -> ''.

Update Task

sqlite3 "<dbPath>" "UPDATE tasks SET <field> = '<value>', updated_at = strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ', 'now') WHERE id = '<task_id>';"

For multiple fields:

sqlite3 "<dbPath>" "UPDATE tasks SET status = '<status>', agent_output = '<output>', updated_at = strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ', 'now') WHERE id = '<task_id>';"

Get Task

sqlite3 -json "<dbPath>" "SELECT t.*, GROUP_CONCAT(td.blocked_by_id) as blocked_by_ids FROM tasks t LEFT JOIN task_dependencies td ON t.id = td.task_id WHERE t.id = '<task_id>' GROUP BY t.id;"

Delete Task

sqlite3 "<dbPath>" "DELETE FROM tasks WHERE id = '<task_id>';"

Dependencies are automatically removed via ON DELETE CASCADE.

Manage Dependencies (Blocked By)

Add dependency:

sqlite3 "<dbPath>" "INSERT OR IGNORE INTO task_dependencies (task_id, blocked_by_id) VALUES ('<task_id>', '<blocker_id>');"

Remove dependency:

sqlite3 "<dbPath>" "DELETE FROM task_dependencies WHERE task_id = '<task_id>' AND blocked_by_id = '<blocker_id>';"

Querying Tasks

Use the query script for filtered queries with JSON output:

bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/query-tasks.sh \
  "<dbPath>" '<where_clause>' '<order_clause>'

Filter Recipes

All tasks (no filter):

bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/query-tasks.sh "<dbPath>"

Ready tasks:

bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/query-tasks.sh "<dbPath>" "t.status = 'Ready'"

Tasks by executor and status (single executor):

bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/query-tasks.sh "<dbPath>" "t.status = 'Ready' AND t.executor = 'cowork'"

Tasks by executor and status (multiple executors — for cli/claude-desktop environments):

bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/query-tasks.sh "<dbPath>" "t.status = 'Ready' AND t.executor IN ('cli','claude-desktop','cowork')"

Tasks assigned to current user:

bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/query-tasks.sh "<dbPath>" "t.assignee LIKE '%<user_id>%'"

In Progress tasks (for concurrency check):

bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/query-tasks.sh "<dbPath>" "t.status = 'In Progress' AND t.assignee LIKE '%<user_id>%'"

Sort by Priority then Due Date:

bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/query-tasks.sh "<dbPath>" "" \
  "CASE t.priority WHEN 'Urgent' THEN 1 WHEN 'High' THEN 2 WHEN 'Medium' THEN 3 WHEN 'Low' THEN 4 END ASC, t.due_date ASC"

Hierarchy Queries

Subtasks of a parent:

bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/query-tasks.sh "<dbPath>" "t.parent_task_id = '<parent_task_id>'"

Check if a task has children:

bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/query-tasks.sh "<dbPath>" "t.parent_task_id = '<task_id>'" | jq '.results | length'

Check if a candidate parent is itself a subtask:

bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/query-tasks.sh "<dbPath>" "t.id = '<candidate_parent_id>'" | jq '.results[0].parent_task_id'

If the result is non-null, the candidate is already a subtask and cannot be used as a parent (2-level limit).

Post-Processing (all queries)

• Blocked By resolved: Check that the blocked_by array is empty OR query each blocked_by task and confirm all have status = 'Done'.
• Sort (if not done in query): Priority — Urgent > High > Medium > Low; then by Due Date (earliest first).

Displaying Task Lists

bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/query-tasks.sh "<dbPath>" '<where>' '<order>' | \
  jq '[.results[] | {id, title, status, priority, executor, assignee, due_date, blocked_by: (.blocked_by | length | tostring) + " deps"}]'

Task Record Reference

When referring to a task in dispatch prompts and completion instructions, use:

• Task ID: the hex string ID from the id column
• Update instruction: "Run: sqlite3 <dbPath> \"UPDATE tasks SET agent_output = '<result>', status = 'Done', updated_at = strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ', 'now') WHERE id = '<task_id>';\""

On Completion Template

The following template is injected into dispatch prompts by executing-tasks. Placeholders are resolved at dispatch time.

Task ID: <task_id>
Database path: <db_path>

On completion:
1. Run: sqlite3 "<db_path>" "UPDATE tasks SET agent_output='<result>', status='Done', updated_at=strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ','now') WHERE id='<task_id>';"
   - If Requires Review = ON: set status to 'In Review' instead of 'Done'
2. On error: sqlite3 "<db_path>" "UPDATE tasks SET error_message='<error>', status='Blocked', updated_at=strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ','now') WHERE id='<task_id>';"

Pushing Data to View Server

After any task operation (create, update, delete), push fresh data to the local view server:

1. Fetch all tasks:

bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/query-tasks.sh "<dbPath>"

2. Format as TasksResponse and POST:

TASKS_JSON=$(bash ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/sqlite-provider/scripts/query-tasks.sh "<dbPath>" | jq -c '{tasks: [.results[] | {
  id, title, description, acceptanceCriteria: .acceptance_criteria, status, blockedBy: .blocked_by,
  priority, executor, requiresReview: .requires_review, executionPlan: .execution_plan,
  workingDirectory: .working_directory, sessionReference: .session_reference,
  dispatchedAt: .dispatched_at, agentOutput: .agent_output, errorMessage: .error_message,
  context, artifacts, repository, dueDate: .due_date, tags, parentTaskId: .parent_task_id,
  project, team, assignee, issuer, url: "", sprintId: .sprint_id, sprintName: null,
  complexityScore: .complexity_score, backlogOrder: .backlog_order
}], updatedAt: (now | strftime("%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ"))}')

curl -s http://localhost:3456/api/health -o /dev/null 2>/dev/null && \
  curl -s -X POST http://localhost:3456/api/data \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "$TASKS_JSON" -o /dev/null 2>/dev/null || true

View Server Field Mapping

Identity: Resolve Current User

Called by resolving-identity shared skill when active_provider = sqlite.

SQLite is local — no remote user system. Set:

• id <- "local"
• name <- $USER environment variable or "local"
• email <- null

Identity: Resolve Team Membership

If teams table has rows:

1. Query: sqlite3 -json "<dbPath>" "SELECT * FROM teams;"
2. Parse members JSON array for each team
3. Match by name (case-insensitive) against current_user.name
4. Set current_user.teams and current_team per the same logic as other providers

Identity: List Org Members

SQLite is local — return members from teams table if available, otherwise org_members: [].

sqlite3 -json "<dbPath>" "SELECT members FROM teams;" | jq '[.[].members | fromjson | .[] ] | unique_by(.name)'
