list-tasks

A command that lists tasks from a TaskPlanner board, grouped by status. TaskPlanner is a task board stored in Markdown files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to see backlog, upcoming, in-progress, and completed tasks, with their IDs, priorities, and assignees.
Why use it?
It avoids opening and sorting the board manually when you need a quick overview of the work.

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

list-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.

What it actually says

List Tasks

Show the user a summary of all tasks in their TaskPlanner board.

Steps

Determine the absolute current repository root first and pass it as workspace_root on every MCP call.

  1. Call the taskplanner_board MCP tool with include_tasks: true to get the full board overview.
  2. Present the results to the user in a clear, readable format grouped by state (Backlog, Next, In Progress, Done).
  3. If the user asked for a specific filter (e.g. "show me P0 tasks" or "tasks assigned to me"), use the taskplanner_list MCP tool with the appropriate query or state parameter instead.
  4. Highlight any tasks in "In Progress" state — these are actively being worked on.
  5. Keep the output concise: show task ID, title, priority, and assignee. Omit full descriptions unless the user asks for details.
Changes

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.
