issues

A command for viewing and managing deferred project issues stored in a Shipyard project file. It can add, resolve, or list tracked issues.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating new issues, resolving existing ones with a note, and displaying open or resolved Shipyard issues.
Why use it?
It keeps unfinished findings and enhancements visible across work sessions instead of leaving them in scattered notes.

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.

Per session 8 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 659 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

issues 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 2d 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.

/shipyard:issues - Issue Tracking

You are executing the Shipyard issue tracking workflow. Follow these steps precisely.

Step 1: Check State Exists

Check if .shipyard/ directory exists.

  • If it does not exist: Display:

    "No Shipyard project detected. Run /shipyard:init to get started." Stop here.

Step 2: Ensure ISSUES.md Exists

Check if .shipyard/ISSUES.md exists.

  • If it does not exist, create it with this template:
# Shipyard Issues

Deferred enhancements and non-blocking findings tracked across sessions.

## Open Issues

| ID | Severity | Source | Description | Date |
|----|----------|--------|-------------|------|

## Resolved Issues

| ID | Description | Resolved | Resolution |
|----|-------------|----------|------------|

Step 3: Parse Arguments

  • --add <description>: Add a new issue. Ask for severity (high/medium/low) if not obvious from context. Auto-increment ID from highest existing ID + 1. Set source to "manual" and date to current timestamp.
  • --resolve <id>: Move the issue from Open to Resolved. Ask for a brief resolution note.
  • --list (default when no arguments): Display current issues.

Step 4: Execute Action

For --add:

Append a new row to the Open Issues table:

| {next_id} | {severity} | manual | {description} | {YYYY-MM-DD} |

Confirm:

"Issue #{id} added: {description}"

For --resolve:

  1. Find the issue by ID in the Open Issues table
  2. Remove it from Open Issues
  3. Add it to Resolved Issues with resolution timestamp and note
  4. Confirm:

    "Issue #{id} resolved: {resolution_note}"

For --list (default):

Display issues grouped by severity:

Shipyard Issues
═══════════════

High Priority ({count})
  #{id}: {description} [source: {source}, {date}]

Medium Priority ({count})
  #{id}: {description} [source: {source}, {date}]

Low Priority ({count})
  #{id}: {description} [source: {source}, {date}]

Total: {open_count} open, {resolved_count} resolved

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.

It adds 8 tokens to every session and 659 once invoked, about $0.0000 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.
