scout-work

scout-work is a command for Claude Code from Raven-Scout/Scout. It costs 47 tokens per session (1,735 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An interactive task session that reads today's unchecked action items, suggests a next step with draft content, and waits for your approval before acting.

In plain words
What is it for?
Review and complete today's action items one at a time. Use it when you want the agent to prepare work but you to approve each action.
Why use it?
It keeps work in one conversation and prevents messages, meetings, pull-request merges, or other externally visible actions from happening without your consent.

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.

Fable 5.1 $0.00047 $0.01735
Opus 5.5 $0.00019 $0.00694

Security

Grade A, and why

scout-work 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 158 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Scout Work Session

Run an interactive Scout work session to knock items off today's action items list.

Unlike /scout-briefing, /scout-consolidation, /scout-dream, and /scout-research (which run as background processes), this runs in the current conversation. You present actionable items one at a time with a recommended action ready to go, and wait for approval before executing.

The goal: the user decides, Scout drafts and executes. Never send a message, merge a PR, create a meeting, or take any externally-visible action without explicit approval.

Phase 1: Load & Filter

  1. Get today's date in the user's timezone. Read scout-config.yaml for the timezone field (default America/New_York if missing):

    TZ=<timezone> date '+%Y-%m-%d'

  2. Read today's action items file: <SCOUT_DIR>/action-items/action-items-YYYY-MM-DD.md

    • If it doesn't exist, tell the user: "No action items file for today. Run /scout-briefing or /scout-consolidation first to generate one."
    • Stop here if no file.

  3. Parse the file and collect all unchecked items (- [ ]) from these sections:

    • 🔴 Urgent / Time-Sensitive
    • 🟡 To Do
    • Personal

  4. Skip items from the 🟢 Watching section — those are monitoring, not actionable.

  5. Skip items explicitly described as blocked by another item (e.g., "Blocked by PROJ-2630", "Waiting on Legal review").

  6. Present a numbered summary:

    Found N actionable items:
- X urgent
- Y to do
- Z personal

Ready to start?

Wait for the user to confirm before proceeding.

Phase 2: Work Loop

Process items in priority order: Urgent first, then To Do, then Personal.

For each item, do the following:

Step 1: Triage — classify the action type

Use the user's connected tools to determine what kind of action this is. The matrix below is a starting point — use judgment when an item spans multiple categories.

Type Tools to use Signals in the item
GitHub gh CLI (pr view, pr merge, pr review) PR #, merge, reviewer, CI, GitHub URL
Slack Slack MCP (slack_send_message, slack_read_channel, etc.) Slack DM, reply, post, thread, channel name
Calendar Google Calendar MCP (create_event, list_events) Schedule, meeting, invite, calendar
Linear Linear MCP (save_issue, get_issue) Linear issue ID, status update, create issue
Email Gmail MCP (create_draft, send_message) Email, reply, draft, follow-up with an email address
Research WebSearch, WebFetch Research, look up, find out, investigate, compare
Compound Multiple of the above Item needs several steps in sequence

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.
