Description

Task listing was incorrectly fetching README.md and showing it as a broken task due to overly broad file patterns in utility functions. The issue was causing non-task markdown files to appear in task lists and fail parsing, creating a confusing user experience.

Acceptance Criteria

• [x] README.md files are no longer picked up by task listing functions
• [x] Task utility functions use specific 'task-.md' pattern instead of broad '.md' pattern
• [x] Existing task functionality remains unaffected
• [x] All task listing operations (active, drafts, archived, completed) use consistent patterns

Implementation Notes

Fixed by updating task-path.ts utility functions to use specific 'task-.md' pattern instead of broad '.md' pattern. This ensures only actual task files are discovered by the task management system while excluding README.md and other documentation files.
