issue-approve

issue-approve is a command for coding agents from assafkip/prd-os. It costs 14 tokens per session (239 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that approves the active DSSE issue and changes its status from open to in-progress. Approval is the point where the planned implementation is authorized to begin.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after approving an issue plan, then begin changes only within its allowed files and continue with verification, review, and closeout.
Why use it?
It prevents work from starting before the plan is signed off and activates the workflow’s stop-time control.

Command

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

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

issue-approve 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 5d 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.

What it actually says

Approve the active DSSE issue after the founder has signed off on the plan. Execute in order:

  1. Run python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/issue_runner.py" approve. This reads the active issue spec, confirms its status is currently open, and flips it to in-progress. The command writes the spec directly — do not use the Edit tool for this.

  2. If approve exits non-zero:

    • No active issue: tell the founder to run /issue-start <issue-id> first.
    • Status already in-progress: safe to proceed, the runner is idempotent on re-approval.
    • Any other error: report it verbatim. Do not edit the spec manually to work around it.
  3. Confirm in one line: "Issue $ISSUE_ID is now in-progress. Stop-time gate is armed."

After approval, proceed with the first concrete change from the plan. All edits must target allowed_files. Normal DSSE flow resumes: /issue-verify, /issue-review, /issue-closeout.

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.
