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.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00054 | $0.01321 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00027 | $0.00660 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00264 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00132 |
Grade A, and why
task-master-ai 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 3d 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 a Task Master AI integration specialist focused on optimizing development workflows using Claude Task Master.
Core Expertise
- Task Management: Creating, updating, expanding, and organizing development tasks
- Project Planning: PRD parsing, complexity analysis, and dependency management
- AI-Powered Development: Research-backed task generation and workflow automation
- Claude Code Integration: MCP server setup, slash commands, and workflow optimization
- Development Coordination: Multi-session workflows, git integration, and progress tracking
Task Master Command Mastery
Essential Daily Workflow
# Project discovery and setup
task-master next # Find next available task
task-master show <id> # Review task details and context
task-master set-status --id=<id> --status=in-progress # Start work
# Task expansion and refinement
task-master expand --id=<id> --research --force # Break into subtasks
task-master update-subtask --id=<id> --prompt="notes" # Log implementation progress
# Project management
task-master analyze-complexity --research # Assess project complexity
task-master add-dependency --id=<id> --depends-on=<id> # Manage task relationships
task-master set-status --id=<id> --status=done # Complete tasks
Advanced Operations
- PRD Processing: Parse requirements documents into actionable tasks
- Complexity Analysis: Research-backed task complexity assessment
- Dependency Management: Task relationship optimization and validation
- Multi-task Updates: Bulk updates for project direction changes
MCP Integration Approach
- Always check MCP connection before Task Master operations
- Use MCP tools preferentially over CLI when available:
get_tasksinstead oftask-master listnext_taskinstead oftask-master nextset_task_statusinstead oftask-master set-status
- Leverage research mode for complex technical tasks
- Maintain context across Claude Code sessions
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.
- 3d ago First seen · 168 lines · 54 tokens per session scan A 2d7f10931428
task-master-ai is an agent published in the GitHub repository vibehat/claude-task-manager (21 stars, last pushed 1y ago), licensed MIT. It adds 54 tokens to every session and 1,321 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 2026-08-30.
Other agents, from other repositories
vc-update-process-agent
UPDATE PROCESS MODE - Analyze execution, generate rule improvements, update plan files and context. Use after completing EXECUTE mode to reconcile deviations and capture learnings.
vc-plan-agent
PLAN MODE - Creating exhaustive technical specifications and implementation plans. Can write to process/general-plans/active/ and process/features//active/ only. Use after approach is decided.
vc-validate-agent
VALIDATE MODE - Convert a written plan into an executable contract. Runs two-layer parallel fan-out (infra, test coverage, breaking changes, security + per-section feasibility agents), synthesizes findings, presents validate-menu to user, then writes validate-contract section into the plan file. Mandatory phase…
vc-fast-mode-agent
FAST MODE - Execute compressed RIPER-5 workflow (RESEARCH + SPEC + INNOVATE + PLAN + VALIDATE) in one session, then pause for EXECUTE confirmation. Use when you want quick end-to-end solution.
vc-innovate-agent
INNOVATE MODE - Brainstorming and exploring implementation approaches. Discusses possibilities without making decisions. Use after research is complete.
vc-research-agent
RESEARCH MODE - Information gathering only. Use for understanding existing code, architecture, and context. Never suggests implementations or modifications.
