Break the @alkdev/taskgraph architecture specs into dependency-ordered implementation tasks across 8 component directories: setup, schema, error, graph, analysis, cost-benefit, frontmatter, api, and review. Each task has clear acceptance criteria referencing specific architecture docs. Three review tasks serve as quality gates at critical junction points (schemas-and-errors, graph-complete, complete-library). The dependency graph is validated acyclic with 9 topological levels enabling significant parallelism across independent work streams.

## Description
|
|
|
|
Implement `criticalPath` and `weightedCriticalPath` as standalone functions. `criticalPath` finds the longest path from sources to sinks using default edge weighting. `weightedCriticalPath` accepts a custom weight function for per-node weighting.
|
|
|
|
`criticalPath` can be implemented via topological order + dynamic programming (longest path in DAG). For unweighted, each edge has weight 1; for weighted, each node contributes a weight.
|
|
|
|
## Acceptance Criteria
|
|
|
|
- [ ] `criticalPath(graph: TaskGraph): string[]` — returns the longest path as an ordered array of task IDs
|
|
- [ ] `weightedCriticalPath(graph: TaskGraph, weightFn: (taskId: string, attrs: TaskGraphNodeAttributes) => number): string[]` — returns the path with the highest cumulative weight
|
|
- [ ] Both functions throw `CircularDependencyError` if graph is cyclic
|
|
- [ ] When multiple paths tie, returns any one of them (deterministic order preferred)
|
|
- [ ] Empty graph returns `[]`; single-node graph returns `[nodeId]`
|
|
- [ ] Unit tests: linear chain (the chain itself is critical path), diamond graph (tests path selection), weighted variant with diverse scope values
