Description
Description
The expand_task MCP tool's documentation and CLAUDE.md references suggest the CLI equivalent is task-master expand-task, but the actual CLI command is task-master expand. This causes failures when agents fall back to CLI for timeout-prone operations.
Steps to Reproduce
- Try
task-master expand-task --id 5 --tag "my-tag" - Command fails —
expand-taskis not a valid subcommand - Correct command:
task-master expand --id 5 --tag "my-tag"
Expected Behavior
Either:
- The CLI should accept
expand-taskas an alias forexpand, OR - Documentation/CLAUDE.md should reference the correct command
expand
Actual Behavior
The CLAUDE.md template (auto-generated by task-master init) contains multiple references to task-master expand-task which is not a valid command. The correct command is task-master expand.
Affected Documentation
In the generated CLAUDE.md, these lines reference the wrong command:
- "CLI: task-master expand-task --id X --tag Y"
- Multiple examples in the "Subtask Creation Guidelines" section
Environment
- Task Master version: 0.43.0
- Node.js version: v24.13.0
- Operating system: Ubuntu 24.04
- IDE: Claude Code CLI
