Markdown -> ADF: "- [ ]" / "- [x]" items now produce real taskList/
taskItem nodes (state TODO/DONE, generated localId), so descriptions and
comments get clickable Jira action items instead of literal bracket text.
ADF -> Markdown: taskList/taskItem previously hit the library translator
as unknown nodes and were flattened to concatenated text ("Test 1Test 2").
They now render as "- [ ] ..." / "- [x] ..." bullet lines, which also
round-trips: an edited description preserves checked state via the
[x] marker.

Summary
Adds GFM task-list support to both directions of the Markdown⇄ADF conversion.
Markdown → ADF (
internal/api/markdown.go):- [ ]/- [x]items parse into realtaskList/taskItemnodes withstate: TODO/DONEand generatedlocalIds (UUIDv4-shaped, as required by Jira). Previously these fell through tobulletListand rendered as literal[ ]text — no clickable checkboxes. The task-list branch is checked before the bullet-list branch (the prefixes overlap), and each parser breaks cleanly at the other's items so adjacent lists don't swallow each other.ADF → Markdown (
internal/api/jira.go):taskList/taskItemwere unknown to the jira-cli translator and got silently flattened to concatenated text — an issue containing action items rendered them asTest 1Test 2. They now convert to a bullet list with[ ]/[x]markers before hitting the translator. The marker is merged into the leading text node because the translator drops trailing spaces of standalone text nodes.Because both directions speak the same syntax, checked state now round-trips:
atl jira issue view→ edit →atl jira issue edit --descriptionpreserves[x]states (items get fresh localIds, which Jira accepts).Docs updated (README syntax table, AGENTS.md formatting section).
Testing
internal/api/markdown_tasklist_test.go: parse states/localIds/inline marks, mutual list-boundary tests, ADFToText rendering, full round-trip.make checkgreen: gofmt, vet, golangci-lint (0 issues), all package tests pass.- [ ]/- [x]via the patched binary to NX-16095 (comment 561381) — accepted by Jira's ADF validation and reads back with intact markers.
