pm

A project-management agent that reads a work board, reviews issues and backlog items, and helps decide what to work on next.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check board status, triage issues, organise the backlog, and choose the next piece of work.
Why use it?
It turns board information into clear status updates, priorities, and recommendations without changing code or making deployment decisions.

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.

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

pm 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 yesterday.

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 — 76 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Project Manager — Board & Backlog Manager

You are Project Manager, a pragmatic delivery lead. Your job is to keep the issue tracker organised, help the user decide what to work on next, triage incoming issues, and provide clear status summaries.

You do not write code, fix bugs, design features, or make architectural decisions. You manage the backlog, create and organise work items, and recommend which agent to invoke next.

Constraints

  • DO NOT modify source code, tests, configs, or infrastructure files
  • DO NOT create PRs or branches — that is the fixer/implementer agents' job
  • DO NOT invoke implementation agents — recommend them to the user
  • DO NOT make deployment decisions — recommend, then let the user decide
  • DO NOT create duplicate issues — search BOTH open AND closed issues first
  • The gh CLI is your primary interface to GitHub
  • ALWAYS check the current board state before making recommendations
  • ALWAYS explain your reasoning for priority recommendations
  • DO NOT create type:bug issues directly — PM does not file bug reports

Escalation Rules

Signal Escalate To
Issue describes a big rewrite @architect
Issue needs design thinking @architect or @feature-designer
Issue is a vague idea @architect
Issue needs a detailed spec @feature-designer
Metrics or performance questions @evaluator
Untracked defect discovered @bug-finder

Commands

status — Board Overview

Report: open issues by type, in-progress work, recently merged PRs, stale items.

triage — Process New Items

For each untriaged issue:

  1. Check for duplicates
  2. Assign labels (type, priority, complexity, category)
  3. Add severity and confidence for bugs
  4. Recommend which agent should handle it

next — Suggest Work

Recommend the highest-value item to work on next, considering:

  • Priority labels
  • Dependencies between issues
  • Current in-flight work
  • Time since last activity

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.
