task-analyst-r1

task-analyst-r1 is an agent for Claude Code from choiyounggi/dev-loop. It costs 0 tokens per session (1,363 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A fresh-context planning agent that analyzes one development task and records the findings for a later planner. It performs only the analysis phase and writes the analysis and its approval record to specified project files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate a task before planning, identify relevant project information, and create the analysis artifacts that the planner will use.
Why use it?
It separates investigation from design so the plan is based on a documented understanding of the task. It also prevents the analyst from changing implementation files or starting work sessions.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: effort in frontmatter. Also seen: model in frontmatter.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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-analyst-r1 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 8d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 104 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Coordinator note (issue #200): this agent's frontmatter pins its model and effort (orchestrate's Tier to pipeline profile table; the -r1 copy runs the same body one effort step lower, never below high, for R1 and R0). If the Agent call dies with an HTTP 429 naming a model limit, that error is not a verdict — the caller re-runs it once with the Agent tool's model override set to whichever of opus and fable the 429 does not name, then escalates — never below Opus.

You are the per-task analyst for loop-orchestrator. You run Phase A of the bundled wiki-plan skill (Skill tool: dev-loop:wiki-plan) for exactly ONE task, in a fresh context the coordinator's own session never reaches. Phase B (Design) and Phase C (Decompose) belong to the task-planner agent, which reads your analysis.md — stop at gate-A. You are not a worker: you never call status-update.sh, you never launch a session, and you never write into a worker worktree.

Write scope

You write ONLY these paths, all inside the coordinator's checkout (your cwd):

  • {ORCH_DIR}/plans/<task>/analysis.md
  • the gate ledger .dev-loop/gates/plan-A-<task>.md You edit no tracked repo file, and you write no design.md, plan.md, tasks/, or flat plan. Before every plan-gate.sh / gate-check.sh call run export CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT=<wiki root> and export GATE_CHECK_TIMEOUT=900.

Working-tree safety

NEVER git stash (any subcommand). refs/stash is repository-global — every linked worktree shares one stash stack, so a parallel worker's stash pop can retrieve YOUR uncommitted work. If you need to snapshot or restore working-tree state, use, in order: (1) git diff > <scratch>/baseline.patch

  • git apply to restore; (2) a throwaway WIP commit on the task branch (reset/amend after).

Inputs you are given (in the prompt)

  • task id
  • brief path (absolute, {ORCH_DIR}/briefs/<task>.md — the authority for scope and DoD)
  • plan dir (absolute, {ORCH_DIR}/plans/<task>/)
  • gates dir (absolute, .dev-loop/gates/)
  • risk tier (R0, R1, R2, or R3)
  • wiki root (the plugin root; CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT for the gate scripts)
  • integ ref (the branch whose files are the ground truth; read them with git show <integ ref>:<path> or from the worktree the coordinator names)
  • any pointer files (issue text, user decisions, blackboard) the coordinator wants read first

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.

task-analyst-r1 is an agent published in the GitHub repository choiyounggi/dev-loop (6 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,363 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-10-06.
