This PR implements the feature requested in issue #5693 to allow modes to disable task lists to reduce token usage.

Changes Made

  • Added disableTaskLists property to ModeConfig type schema
  • Updated tool description generation to conditionally exclude update_todo_list tool
  • Enhanced tool permission validation to respect the disableTaskLists setting
  • Added comprehensive test coverage

Technical Implementation

The implementation works by:

  1. Adding the optional disableTaskLists boolean to the Zod schema for mode configurations
  2. Checking this property in getToolDescriptionsForMode() and isToolAllowedForMode()

Testing

  • All existing tests continue to pass
  • New tests verify the functionality works correctly
  • Tests cover enabled, disabled, and undefined states

Usage

Mode creators can now add disableTaskLists: true to their mode configuration to disable task list functionality and reduce token usage.

Fixes #5693


Important

Adds disableTaskLists option to mode configurations to conditionally exclude task list tools, with comprehensive tests.

  • Behavior:
    • Adds disableTaskLists boolean to modeConfigSchema in mode.ts to allow disabling task lists in mode configurations.
    • Updates getToolDescriptionsForMode() in index.ts to exclude update_todo_list tool if disableTaskLists is true.
    • Modifies isToolAllowedForMode() in modes.ts to respect disableTaskLists setting.
  • Testing:
    • Adds tests in index.spec.ts and validateToolUse.spec.ts to verify disableTaskLists functionality for true, false, and undefined states.
    • Ensures built-in modes always include update_todo_list.
  • Misc:
