Set taskMode on each task, or use taskModeDefault for tasks that omit it:

{
id: 'kickoff',
name: 'Fixed Kickoff Event',
taskMode: 'manual',
startDate: '2026-04-20',
endDate: '2026-04-20',
duration: 0,
// other task fields
}

Automatic tasks are dependency-safe. Dragging, resizing from the start edge, or editing an automatic successor before its predecessor allows will clamp the effective schedule to the dependency-valid date.

Manual tasks keep authored dates. If the manual start violates an active dependency, the scheduler reports manual-dependency-violation and the row/bar renders a scheduling warning indicator.

When a manual task is placed at a date that violates an incoming dependency (e.g., starts before a FS predecessor finishes), the scheduler does not move the task. Instead, it:

  1. Records a manual-dependency-violation conflict.
  2. Displays a warning icon in the “Scheduling Warning” column.
  3. Highlights the task bar with warning styling.

This allows planners to maintain “best guess” or “negotiated” dates while still seeing where the logical project structure is broken.
