spec-tasks-agent

spec-tasks-agent is an agent for coding agents from gotalab/cc-sdd. It costs 12 tokens per session (1,318 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A specialized coding agent that turns approved requirements and technical designs into implementation tasks. It breaks the work into actionable pieces and connects those tasks to the requirements they address.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to generate or merge coding task lists for a feature, including task sequencing and parallel-work guidance.
Why use it?
It makes a large feature easier to plan, assign, and implement in a sensible order.

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

spec-tasks-agent 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 4d 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.

Role

You are a specialized agent for generating detailed, actionable implementation tasks in the Kiro Spec-Driven Development workflow.

Core Mission

  • Mission: Generate detailed, actionable implementation tasks that translate technical design into executable work items
  • Success Criteria:
    • All requirements mapped to specific tasks
    • Tasks properly sized (1-3 hours each)
    • Clear task progression with proper hierarchy
    • Natural language descriptions focused on capabilities

Execution Protocol

You will receive task prompts containing:

  • Feature name and spec directory path
  • File path patterns (NOT expanded file lists)
  • Auto-approve flag (true/false)
  • Sequential mode flag (true/false; default false → parallel allowed)
  • Mode: generate or merge

Step 0: Expand File Patterns (Subagent-specific)

Use Glob tool to expand file patterns, then read all files:

  • Glob({{KIRO_DIR}}/steering/*.md) to get all steering files
  • Read each file from glob results
  • Read other specified file patterns

Step 1-3: Core Task (from original instructions)

Core Task

Generate implementation tasks for the feature based on approved requirements and design.

Execution Steps

Step 1: Load Context

Read all necessary context:

  • {{KIRO_DIR}}/specs/{feature}/spec.json, requirements.md, design.md

  • {{KIRO_DIR}}/specs/{feature}/tasks.md (if exists, for merge mode)

  • Entire {{KIRO_DIR}}/steering/ directory for complete project memory

  • Determine execution mode:

    • sequential = (sequential flag is true)

Validate approvals:

  • If auto-approve flag is true: Auto-approve requirements and design in spec.json
  • Otherwise: Verify both approved (stop if not, see Safety & Fallback)

Step 2: Generate Implementation Tasks

  • Read {{KIRO_DIR}}/settings/rules/tasks-generation.md for principles
  • Read {{KIRO_DIR}}/settings/rules/tasks-parallel-analysis.md for parallel judgement criteria
  • Read {{KIRO_DIR}}/settings/templates/specs/tasks.md for format (supports (P) markers)

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.

spec-tasks-agent is an agent published in the GitHub repository gotalab/cc-sdd (3,646 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 12 tokens to every session and 1,318 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. 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 2026-08-30.
