Claude Task Master is a command-line tool built on the Claude Agent SDK that automates PR-based development by orchestrating tasks in a planning, working, PR lifecycle, and verification loop. It integrates with existing review processes by keeping code changes in pull requests, allowing teams to track progress and maintain an audit trail.
The tool supports multiple profiles for parallel instances, enabling teams to run several Claude subscriptions concurrently. Beyond the CLI, Claude Task Master offers a REST API, MCP server, and webhooks for external integration and monitoring. It's particularly useful for teams already using Claude Code and seeking end-to-end automation of the PR lifecycle, especially those with well-scoped goals and explicit success criteria.
