chore: Enhanced Task Implementation Capabilities of Cursor. (#40774)

## Description
- Introduced task-list.mdc for guidelines on creating and managing task
lists in Markdown format, detailing structure and maintenance practices.
- Added TASKS.md to .gitignore to prevent tracking of project-specific
task files.



Fixes #`Issue Number`  
_or_  
Fixes `Issue URL`
> [!WARNING]  
> _If no issue exists, please create an issue first, and check with the
maintainers if the issue is valid._

## Summary by CodeRabbit

- **Documentation**
- Introduced a new guideline document outlining best practices for
creating and maintaining task lists in Markdown files, including
structure, maintenance, and AI usage instructions.
- **Chores**
- Updated the `.gitignore` file to exclude `TASKS.md` from version
control, ensuring project-specific task files are not tracked.

+# Task List Management
+
+Guidelines for creating and managing task lists in Markdown files to track project progress
+
+## Task List Creation
+
+1. Create task lists in a markdown file (in the project root):
+   - Use `TASKS.md` or a descriptive name relevant to the feature (e.g., `ASSISTANT_CHAT.md`)
+   - Include a clear title and description of the feature being implemented
+
+2. Structure the file with these sections:
+   ```markdown
+   # Feature Name Implementation
+   
+   Brief description of the feature and its purpose.
+   
+   ## Completed Tasks
+   
+   - [x] Task 1 that has been completed
+   - [x] Task 2 that has been completed
+   
+   ## In Progress Tasks
+   
+   - [ ] Task 3 currently being worked on
+   - [ ] Task 4 to be completed soon
+   
+   ## Future Tasks
+   
+   - [ ] Task 5 planned for future implementation
+   - [ ] Task 6 planned for future implementation
+   
+   ## Implementation Plan
+   
+   Detailed description of how the feature will be implemented.
+   
+   ### Relevant Files
+   
+   - path/to/file1.ts - Description of purpose
+   - path/to/file2.ts - Description of purpose
+   ```
+
+## Task List Maintenance
+
+1. Update the task list as you progress:
+   - Mark tasks as completed by changing `[ ]` to `[x]`
+   - Add new tasks as they are identified
+   - Move tasks between sections as appropriate
+
+2. Keep "Relevant Files" section updated with:
+   - File paths that have been created or modified
+   - Brief descriptions of each file's purpose
+   - Status indicators (e.g., ✅) for completed components
+
+3. Add implementation details:
+   - Architecture decisions
+   - Data flow descriptions
+   - Technical components needed
+   - Environment configuration
+
+## AI Instructions
+
+When working with task lists, the AI should:
+
+1. Regularly update the task list file after implementing significant components
+2. Mark completed tasks with [x] when finished
+3. Add new tasks discovered during implementation
+4. Maintain the "Relevant Files" section with accurate file paths and descriptions
+5. Document implementation details, especially for complex features
+6. When implementing tasks one by one, first check which task to implement next
+7. After implementing a task, update the file to reflect progress
+
+## Example Task Update
+
+When updating a task from "In Progress" to "Completed":
+
+```markdown
+## In Progress Tasks
+
+- [ ] Implement database schema
+- [ ] Create API endpoints for data access
+
+## Completed Tasks
+
+- [x] Set up project structure
+- [x] Configure environment variables
+```
+
+Should become:
+
+```markdown
+## In Progress Tasks
+
+- [ ] Create API endpoints for data access
+
+## Completed Tasks
+
+- [x] Set up project structure
+- [x] Configure environment variables
+- [x] Implement database schema
+```
