prp-task-create

A planning command that turns a focused code change into an ordered task list with context, dependencies, examples, validation steps, and rollback guidance.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare a detailed implementation plan for a feature, fix, or refactor. It helps developers define prerequisites, core changes, integration work, and checks.
Why use it?
It reduces the chance of missing affected files, existing coding patterns, side effects, or tests before implementation begins.

Made for: Claude Code.

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

prp-task-create 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.

Analysis Process

  1. Scope Definition

    • Identify all affected files
    • Map dependencies
    • Check for side effects
    • Note test coverage
  2. Pattern Research

    • Find similar changes in history
    • Identify conventions to follow
    • Check for helper functions
    • Review test patterns
  3. User Clarification

    • Confirm change scope
    • Verify acceptance criteria
    • Check deployment considerations
    • Identify blockers

PRP Generation

READ Using TASK_PRP/PRPs/prp_task.md format:

Context Section

context:
  docs:
    - url: [API documentation]
      focus: [specific methods]

  patterns:
    - file: existing/example.py
      copy: [pattern to follow]

  gotchas:
    - issue: "Library requires X"
      fix: "Always do Y first"

Task Structure

ACTION path/to/file:
  - OPERATION: [specific change]
  - VALIDATE: [test command]
  - IF_FAIL: [debug strategy]
  - ROLLBACK: [undo approach]

Task Sequencing

  1. Setup Tasks: Prerequisites
  2. Core Changes: Main modifications
  3. Integration: Connect components
  4. Validation: Comprehensive tests
  5. Cleanup: Remove temp code

Validation Strategy

  • Unit test after each change
  • Integration test after groups
  • Performance check if relevant
  • Security scan for sensitive areas

User Interaction Points

  1. Task Review

    • Confirm task breakdown
    • Validate sequencing
    • Check completeness
  2. Risk Assessment

    • Review potential impacts
    • Confirm rollback approach
    • Set success criteria

Critical Elements

  • Include debug patterns
  • Add performance checks
  • Note security concerns
  • Document assumptions

Output

Save as: TASK_PRP/PRPs/{task-name}.md

Quality Checklist

  • All changes identified
  • Dependencies mapped
  • Each task has validation
  • Rollback steps included
  • Debug strategies provided
  • Performance impact noted
  • Security checked
  • No missing edge cases

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.

prp-task-create is a command published in the GitHub repository EchoingVesper/mcp-task-orchestrator (28 stars, last pushed 1y ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 517 tokens. 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.
