introducing cost telemetry for ai commands
β costs reported across ai providers
β breaks down input/output token usage
β calculates cost of ai command
β both CLI & MCP
we don't store this information yet
but it will eventually be used to power model leaderboards +++
2
knowing the cost of ai commands might make you more sensitive to certain providers
@ollama support uses your local ai endpoint to power @taskmasterai ai commands at no cost
β use any installed model
β models without tool_use are not ideal
β telemetry will show $0 cost
3
baseUrl support has been added to let you adjust the endpoint for any of the 3 roles
you can adjust this by adding 'baseUrl' to any of the roles in .taskmasterconfig
this opens up some support for currently unsupported ai providers like @awscloud @Azure
4
after parsing a PRD into tasks, using analyze-complexity asks ai to score how complex your tasks are and to figure out how many subtasks you need based on their complexity
task complexity scores now appear across task lists, next task, and task details views
