aim-task

aim-task is a command for coding agents from phuonghx/aim-cli. It costs 16 tokens per session (410 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A task-management command for AIM, a workspace tool that keeps project tasks in the repository with statuses, priorities, dependencies, assignees, and acceptance criteria.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create, list, view, edit, prioritize, assign, and complete tasks, including checking off their acceptance criteria.
Why use it?
It gives the project backlog a consistent place to track what needs doing and what is finished.

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

aim-task 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 yesterday.

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

Task Management & Tracker

List, view, create, edit, or check off tasks under the .ai-context/tasks/ directory to manage and observe project progress.

Instructions:

  1. If listing tasks is requested, run aim task list to check all tasks, assignees, and statuses.
  2. If finding the next actionable task is requested, run aim task next to see the next task based on priority and dependencies.
  3. If viewing a task is requested, run aim task view <id> to display its parameters, description, and acceptance criteria.
  4. If creating a task is requested, run the aim task create command:
    • aim task create "<title>" -d "<description>" --ac "<criteria1>" --ac "<criteria2>" -p [low|medium|high|urgent] -a [assignee] --parent [parent_id] --depends-on [dep_id]
    • Make sure acceptance criteria follow EARS syntax (WHEN/THEN, WHILE, etc.).
  5. If editing a task's status, assignee, or check/uncheck AC is requested, run the aim task edit command:
    • aim task edit <id> -s [todo|in-progress|in-review|blocked|done]
    • aim task edit <id> -a [assignee]
    • Mark AC index as completed (1-based): aim task edit <id> --check-ac <index>
    • Add/remove dependency: aim task edit <id> --add-dep <dep_id> or --remove-dep <dep_id>
    • Link spec/plan: aim task edit <id> --spec [path] or --plan [path]
  6. Ensure task progress is updated in the conversation's task.md checklist in the brain folder.

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.
