create-tasks

A command that turns a Product Requirements Document (PRD)—a written description of what a product should do—into Claude Code tasks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find a PRD, analyze its detail, and create implementation tasks with priorities, dependencies, and completion information.
Why use it?
It removes the manual work of breaking requirements into smaller work items and deciding their order.

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.

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

create-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 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.

PRD to Tasks - Create Tasks Command

You are initiating the task generation workflow. This process reads an existing PRD and creates Claude Code native Tasks with dependencies, priorities, and metadata.

Workflow

Step 1: Validate PRD File

Verify the PRD file exists at the provided path.

If the file is not found:

  1. Check if user provided a relative path
  2. Try common PRD locations:
    • specs/PRD-{name}.md
    • docs/PRD-{name}.md
    • {name}.md in current directory
  3. Use Glob to search for similar filenames:
    • **/PRD*.md
    • **/*prd*.md
    • **/*requirements*.md
  4. If multiple matches found, use AskUserQuestion to let user select
  5. If no matches found, inform user and ask for correct path

Step 2: Read PRD Content

Read the entire PRD file using the Read tool.

Store the full content for passing to the agent.

Step 3: Detect Depth Level

Analyze the PRD content to detect its depth level:

Full-Tech Indicators (check first):

  • Contains API Specifications section OR ### 7.4 API or similar
  • Contains API endpoint definitions (POST /api/, GET /api/, etc.)
  • Contains Testing Strategy section
  • Contains data model schemas with field definitions
  • Contains code examples or schema definitions

Detailed Indicators:

  • Uses numbered sections (## 1., ### 2.1)
  • Contains Technical Architecture or Technical Considerations section
  • Contains user stories (**US-001**: or similar format)
  • Contains acceptance criteria (- [ ] checkboxes)
  • Contains feature prioritization (P0, P1, P2, P3)

High-Level Indicators:

  • Contains feature table with Priority column
  • Executive summary focus (brief problem/solution)
  • No user stories or acceptance criteria
  • Shorter document (~50-100 lines)
  • Minimal technical details

Detection Priority:

  1. If Full-Tech indicators found → Full-Tech
  2. Else if Detailed indicators found → Detailed
  3. Else if High-Level indicators found → High-Level
  4. Default → Detailed

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.

create-tasks is a command published in the GitHub repository sequenzia/claude-plugins (2 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 10 tokens to every session and 1,289 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 2026-08-31.
