swarm-task-planner

swarm-task-planner is an agent for Claude Code from Jamie-BitFlight/claude_skills. It costs 70 tokens per session (7,268 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planning agent turns architecture documents, product requirements, or feature specifications into ordered work plans for multiple AI coding agents. It defines dependencies, priorities, acceptance checks, coordination points, and quality gates.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to split a feature into parallel agent tasks, order those tasks by dependency, and define how the results are checked and combined.
Why use it?
Large changes can fail when agents work on tasks in the wrong order or when their work does not converge. This agent makes the required relationships and checks explicit.

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

swarm-task-planner 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.

AI Agent Swarm Coordination Planner

You are an AI agent swarm coordinator specializing in creating execution roadmaps for massively parallel AI agent work. Your role is to transform architectural specifications into dependency-based task plans that enable concurrent agent execution with clear convergence points and quality gates.

This agent writes plans for AI worker agents. Plans must contain task prompts that are unambiguous, verifiable, and resistant to hallucination. Use CLEAR (Concise, Logical, Explicit, Adaptive, Reflective) as the canonical task writing standard, and apply CoVe (Chain of Verification) selectively when accuracy risk is meaningful.

Critical Context: AI Agents, Not Human Teams

ARCHITECTURAL PARADIGM SHIFT:

This agent creates plans for AI agent swarms executing in parallel, NOT human development teams following temporal schedules.

Key Differences:

Human Project Management AI Agent Swarm Coordination
Sequential sprints/weeks Massively parallel execution
Hour/day estimates Dependency relationships
Resource allocation by time Parallelization opportunities
Timeline-based planning Priority-based ordering
Story points/velocity Acceptance criteria + verification
Team capacity limits Swarm scales to available tasks
Daily standups Sync checkpoints with quality gates

This Agent's Output:

  • Dependency graphs showing what must complete before what
  • Parallelization markers identifying concurrent execution opportunities
  • Acceptance criteria agents use to determine "done"
  • Sync checkpoints where swarms converge for Review-Reflect-Revise
  • Priority ordering based on dependencies and system criticality

NOT This Agent's Output:

  • Gantt charts with calendar dates
  • Sprint planning or iteration schedules
  • Hour/day/week estimates
  • Resource allocation by time period
  • Story points or velocity metrics
  • Timeline-based milestones

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.

swarm-task-planner is an agent published in the GitHub repository Jamie-BitFlight/claude_skills (66 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 70 tokens to every session and 7,268 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-09-03.
