task-distributor

task-distributor is an agent for Claude Code from alexmmatos/arthur-mcp. It costs 29 tokens per session (1,330 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of task-distributor, MIT.

A task-distribution assistant for assigning work across multiple agents or workers. It manages queues, priorities, workload balancing, retries, and deadlines in distributed systems.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design queue handling, priority scheduling, load balancing, capacity tracking, retry flows, batch processing, and queue monitoring.
Why use it?
It helps prevent overloaded workers, stalled queues, missed priorities, and uneven work allocation.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

task-distributor scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
