Description

### Checks

- [x] I have searched [github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues](https://github.com/aws/amazon-q-developer-cli/issues?q=) and there are no duplicates of my issue

### Operating system

macOS 15.5.0 (24F74)

### Expected behaviour

Amazon Q Developer should include a built-in "todo" tool similar to Claude's implementation that helps users track and manage tasks during long-running projects. This would allow users to maintain focus on complex tasks without requiring third-party MCP integrations.

### Actual behaviour

Currently, users need to rely on third-party MCP integrations to get similar functionality, which requires additional setup steps.

> Claude code has an integrated "todo" tool that is exceptionally good at helping to keep the AI focused on what it needs to solve in long running tasks. While there is the potential of using third party mcps for this, it would be much better if this was integraetd into q developer straight up so people don't have to do these additional steps.

I understand you'd like to request a feature for Amazon Q Developer to include an integrated "todo" tool similar to what Claude offers. This would help users keep track of tasks in long-running projects without requiring third-party MCP integrations.
