🚀 Built an AI Task Decomposer: From "Launch a SaaS" to Atomic Actionable Tasks
Hi guys, I built AtomicFlow - An AI system that takes any high-level idea and recursively breaks it down into atomic, actionable tasks. Quick Example Input: "Creating a customer acquisition system for my AI automation agency" Output: - Complete task hierarchy (automatically decomposed to the right level) - Each atomic task with 30min-8h time estimates - Smart priority scoring (1-10) - Dependency mapping (what blocks what) - Rich metadata (tags, categories, confidence levels) - Ready-to-import formats for Google Sheets, ClickUp, Notion, Airtable Key Features ✅ Language-agnostic - Works in any language, outputs in the same language✅ AI decides depth - No arbitrary limits, stops when tasks are truly atomic✅ Universal exports - One API call → multiple formats✅ Transparent reasoning - AI explains every decision (why atomic, time estimates, priorities)✅ Dependency detection - Automatically identifies task relationships How It Works Built with n8n + OpenRouter: 1. You send an idea (any language) 2. AI analyzes and decides: "atomic or decompose?" 3. Non-atomic tasks spawn 3-7 children 4. Process continues until queue is empty 5. Returns structured JSON with everything you need The AI doesn't just split randomly - it follows strict atomicity rules: - One person can execute it - Clear deliverable (verifiable "done") - 30min-8h time window - No further strategic thinking needed Current State ✅ It works. Reliably. ⚠️ But it's painfully inefficient: - Burns through API tokens like crazy - Queue-based processing is sequential (slow) This was a Saturday night prototype to demonstrate the concept. Mission accomplished, but it needs serious optimization before being production-ready. The prototype is rough, but the core concept works. Tech Stack: n8n, OpenRouter, JSON processingStatus: Working prototype, needs optimizationExport formats: Google Sheets, ClickUp, Notion, Airtable 📎 Files Included Drop a comment if you want to try it or have thoughts on where this should go! 🙏
