workflow-classify

workflow-classify is a command for coding agents from sangrokjung/claude-forge. It costs 18 tokens per session (1,439 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that rates a coding task as small, medium, large, or extra-large and recommends a matching development workflow. The rating considers file count, new patterns, data models, infrastructure, and security changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
For deciding whether to implement a task directly or use steps such as planning, TDD, code review, verification, and pull-request preparation.
Why use it?
It helps choose enough planning, testing, review, and documentation for the size and risk of a change, so simple tasks do not receive an unnecessarily long process.

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

workflow-classify 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 4d 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 — 134 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Workflow Classify Command

Classify task size and recommend the appropriate pipeline. Use this before starting work to avoid over-engineering small tasks or under-preparing large ones.

Size alone doesn't tell you what to write down or how many independent eyes look at the change before it counts as done. rules/task-grade-routing.md maps each grade to a documentation and verification obligation, and the classification report below always prints both.

Classification Criteria

Size Criteria Pipeline
S Single file, no logic change Implement directly → /quick-commit
M 2-5 files, within existing patterns /plan/tdd/handoff-verify/commit-push-pr
L 5+ files or new patterns introduced Full pipeline with phased implementation
XL Data model, infrastructure, or security changes Full pipeline + security review

Pipelines by Size

S — Direct Implementation

(implement) → /quick-commit

M — Standard Pipeline

/plan → /tdd → /code-review → /handoff-verify → /commit-push-pr
  • Use /auto to run this automatically

L — Phased Pipeline

/plan (master, gated by planner's Restate Gate) → (human review)
  → [Per Phase]
    Phase N: /explore → /plan → /tdd → /code-review
  → /handoff-verify
  → /commit-push-pr
  • Each Phase should be M-sized (5-15 files max)
  • One session = one Phase (prevent context exhaustion)
  • Phase failure: manual rollback to Phase branch
  • There is no separate /plan-review command. agents/planner.md's Restate Gate already forces a one-sentence restatement and an explicit user confirmation before the master plan is handed off, so that gate stands in for the missing step above.

XL — Phased Pipeline + Security

(same as L, plus:)
  → /security-review (CWE + STRIDE, once after all phases)
  → /handoff-verify
  → /commit-push-pr

Sub-Phase Splitting (L/XL)

The key to L/XL tasks is splitting each Phase to M-size.

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.

workflow-classify is a command published in the GitHub repository sangrokjung/claude-forge (822 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 18 tokens to every session and 1,439 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
