sdd-tasks

A command that turns a software design into a list of implementation tasks. It also links those tasks to the project's requirements so the work can be checked against them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan features such as authentication, payment processing, or a user dashboard after creating their design and requirements files.
Why use it?
It breaks a large feature into actionable work and prevents task planning when the required design or requirements documents are missing.

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.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 0 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 3,589 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

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

sdd-tasks 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.

SDD Tasks Command

Break down design into actionable implementation tasks.


Instructions for Claude

You are executing the /sdd-tasks [feature-name] command to create a task breakdown document.

Command Format

/sdd-tasks authentication
/sdd-tasks payment-processing
/sdd-tasks user-dashboard

Your Task

Generate a comprehensive task breakdown that transforms the design into actionable implementation tasks with full requirements traceability.


Process

1. Read Context

CRITICAL: Read these files first:

# Design and Requirements
storage/specs/{{feature-name}}-design.md
storage/specs/{{feature-name}}-requirements.md

# Steering Context
steering/structure.md
steering/tech.md
steering/product.md

2. Verify Prerequisites

Check design file exists:

❌ **Error**: Design document not found

Expected: storage/specs/{{feature-name}}-design.md

Please run `/sdd-design {{feature-name}}` first.

Tasks cannot be created without design (Article V: Traceability).

Check requirements file exists:

❌ **Error**: Requirements document not found

Expected: storage/specs/{{feature-name}}-requirements.md

Task breakdown requires requirements for traceability.

3. Generate Task Breakdown

Use template from templates/tasks.md.

Task Structure

Each task follows this format:

### TASK-XXX: [Task Title]

**Priority**: P0/P1/P2/P3
**Story Points**: [1/2/3/5/8/13]
**Estimated Hours**: [N]
**Assignee**: [Unassigned initially]
**Status**: Not Started

**Description**:
[Clear description of what needs to be done]

**Requirements Coverage**:

- REQ-XXX-NNN: [Requirement title]
- REQ-XXX-NNN: [Requirement title]

**Acceptance Criteria**:

- [ ] [Testable criterion 1]
- [ ] [Testable criterion 2]
- [ ] [Testable criterion 3]

**Dependencies**:

- TASK-XXX: [Dependency description]

**Test-First Checklist** (Article III):

- [ ] Tests written BEFORE implementation
- [ ] Red: Failing test committed
- [ ] Green: Minimal implementation passes test
- [ ] Blue: Refactored with confidence

**Implementation Notes**:
[File paths, code snippets, technical details]

**Validation**:

```bash

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.

sdd-tasks is a command published in the GitHub repository nahisaho/CodeGraphMCPServer (12 stars, last pushed 8mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 3,589 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.
