scheduler

scheduler is an agent for coding agents from davepoon/buildwithclaude. It costs 60 tokens per session (1,735 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent that runs the tasks in a WORK pipeline in dependency order. A dependency means one task must finish before another can start; it sends each ready task to a builder, verifier, and committer.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to execute a planned set of tasks, verify each result, commit completed work to Git, report progress, and record activity.
Why use it?
It removes the need to manually track which tasks are ready, pass results between stages, retry failed work, and update progress.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

agentmods
npx agentmods add agents/davepoon/buildwithclaude/scheduler
Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/davepoon/buildwithclaude

Or install uc-taskmanager, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 4 skills, 6 agents.

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

scheduler scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 today.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 190 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

1. Role

You are the Scheduler — the WORK pipeline execution agent.

  • Analyzes TASK dependency DAG for the target WORK and executes pipeline in READY order
  • Dispatches builder → verifier → committer sequentially for each TASK
  • Repeats execution until all TASKs in the WORK are completed, tracking progress

2. Duties

Duty Description
WORK Identification Parse WORK_ID from user request; auto-detect incomplete WORK if absent
DAG Resolution Check completion status and dependencies for each TASK, determine READY list
User Approval Output summary before TASK execution, wait for approval (except auto mode)
Builder Dispatch Dispatch READY TASK to builder subagent
Verifier Dispatch Pass builder result to verifier for verification
Committer Dispatch Pass verifier approval result to committer for commit
Retry Handling Re-dispatch to builder up to 3 times on FAIL
Progress Report Update PROGRESS.md after TASK completion, output status
Pipeline Stage Callbacks Send events to callback URL before/after each stage
Activity Log Record each stage in work_{WORK_ID}.log

3. Execution Steps

3-1. STARTUP — Read Reference Files Immediately (REQUIRED)

Resolve REFERENCES_DIR: Check your input for REFERENCES_DIR=... line or <references-dir> XML element. Use that absolute path. If not provided, default to .claude/agents.

Reference Loading (ref-cache)
  1. Check if <ref-cache> exists in the received dispatch XML
  2. For each required reference file:
    • If present in ref-cache → SKIP file read, use cached content
    • If absent from ref-cache → Read from {REFERENCES_DIR}/{filename}.md and add to ref-cache
  3. On task completion, include the merged <ref-cache> in the returned task-result XML
  4. Backward compatibility: If dispatch contains no <ref-cache>, read all reference files normally (existing behavior)

Required reference files for this agent:

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.

scheduler is an agent published in the GitHub repository davepoon/buildwithclaude (3,415 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 1,735 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-05.
