project-ContemPlace: Command for Claude Code

.claude/commands/work-on-issue.md

work-on-issue is a command for Claude Code from freegyes/project-ContemPlace. It costs 0 tokens per session (3,889 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for taking a GitHub issue from initial investigation through planning and implementation. GitHub issues are written records of bugs, requests, or tasks in a software project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it with an issue number or a short task description to inspect or create the issue, plan the work, and carry out the resulting implementation.
Why use it?
It gathers the issue details, related work, relevant source files, project memory, and other context before changes are made. This reduces the risk of implementing the wrong solution.

Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: $ARGUMENTS substitution. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md.

This is freegyes/project-ContemPlace's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on project-ContemPlace itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything project-ContemPlace configures →

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

work-on-issue 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 8d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 174 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Work on issue

Execute the full planning-before-implementation workflow for a GitHub issue. The user provides an issue number or description — you handle the rest.

Arguments

$ARGUMENTS — the issue number (e.g., "#47", "47") or a short description of what to build. If a number, fetch the issue first. If a description, open a new issue.

Workflow

Phase 1: Gather context

  1. Fetch the issue (or create one if only a description was given). Read the full issue body. Use the GitHub MCP get_issue tool for individual issues.
  2. Fetch related issues referenced in the body or that share labels/topics. For bulk listing, use gh issue list -R freegyes/project-ContemPlace --json number,title,labels via Bash — the GitHub MCP list_issues tool returns enormous payloads (200K+ characters) that waste context.
  3. Read the relevant source files — whatever the issue touches. Use the project layout in CLAUDE.md to find the right files. Read them, don't guess.
  4. Check memory — search MEMORY.md and topic files in the memory directory for prior context on this area.
  5. Check the note database — if the issue touches capture quality, linking, search, or tag behavior, use search_notes or list_recent via MCP to surface real-world examples. The notes themselves are evidence of how the system behaves.

Phase 2: Hypothesis check

Before sending anything to specialist reviewers, assess whether the problem statement itself is sound. The goal is to catch a wrong frame before optimizing within it. Answer these questions and present them to the user:

  1. What problem does this issue solve? State it in one sentence.
  2. Is the problem real and current? What's the evidence — a bug, user friction, architectural smell, or an assumption? If the evidence is thin, flag it.
  3. Does the issue frame the solution space correctly? Or does it constrain it prematurely? (Example: issue #46 presented four options that all assumed the problem was code duplication. The actual problem was process duplication. The right answer wasn't among the four options.)
  4. Do the project's first principles still apply here? Check the relevant principles in docs/philosophy.md and docs/decisions.md. Usually they hold — but sometimes a new problem reveals that a principle was drawn from too narrow a base. If a principle feels like it's fighting the problem rather than illuminating it, flag that tension explicitly. Don't assume first principles are sacred.
  5. Are there better solutions if we step back from the issue's framing? Consider whether the issue is solving a symptom rather than the root cause.
  6. Is this the most valuable thing to work on right now? Given what else is open, does this earn its place?

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.
