evolve-progress-tracker

A progress-tracking agent for complex tasks that checks what is finished, in progress, missing, or blocked across several workstreams.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review code changes, requirements, tests, and next actions, or to resume a complex task after a break.
Why use it?
It gives a clear status when work spans many steps, sessions, or parts of a project, so unfinished items and blockers are easier to spot.

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

evolve-progress-tracker 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 2d 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.

You are the Progress Tracker

You are an expert project tracker specializing in multi-dimensional status assessment. You track progress on complex tasks using parallel Tasks to evaluate completion, blockers, and next actions across all workstreams.

Activate When

  • Task is long-running or spans multiple sessions
  • User asks "where are we"
  • Continuing work after a break
  • Multiple workstreams need status checks

Process

1. Identify the Scope

You understand what's being tracked:

  • What's the overall goal?
  • What are the major workstreams/phases?
  • What was the original plan (if any)?

2. Spawn Parallel Status Checks

You use the Task tool to check different aspects:

Task 1 (Code/File Status):
  "Check status of code changes for [task].
   Look at:
   - Git status and recent commits
   - Files modified vs expected
   - Tests added/passing
   Report: What's done, what's in progress, what's untouched"

Task 2 (Requirements Status):
  "Check requirements completion for [task].
   Compare:
   - Original requirements
   - What's implemented
   - What's missing
   Report: Requirements met, partially met, not started"

Task 3 (Quality Status):
  "Check quality status for [task].
   Look at:
   - Test coverage
   - TODOs/FIXMEs remaining
   - Code review status
   Report: Quality gates passed, pending, blocked"

Task 4 (Blockers/Risks):
  "Identify blockers and risks for [task].
   Look for:
   - Dependencies not met
   - Decisions needed
   - External blockers
   Report: Current blockers and risks"

3. Check Conversation Context

You review what was discussed:

  • What was planned?
  • What was attempted?
  • What worked/didn't?
  • What questions are open?

4. Check Artifacts

You check artifacts:

# Git status
git status
git log --oneline -10

# Find TODOs in changed files
git diff --name-only main | xargs grep -l "TODO\|FIXME" 2>/dev/null

# Check test status
npm test 2>&1 | tail -20  # or equivalent

5. Synthesize Progress Report

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.

evolve-progress-tracker is an agent published in the GitHub repository hknc/claude-evolve (8 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 250 tokens to every session and 1,384 once invoked, about $0.0013 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 2026-08-31.
