quick

A guided workflow for taking a small software change from brainstorming through implementation, checking, review, and integration. It requires the user to confirm before moving between stages and keeps related design or plan files with saved work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Discussing an idea, isolating workspace changes, documenting decisions, implementing a change, verifying it, reviewing the result, and integrating the finished work.
Why use it?
It provides a repeatable development path for small changes without requiring a separate planning stage.

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

quick 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 106 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/quick Workflow

This command runs a shortened development cycle for small-scoped changes in this repository. It keeps the /full_cycle flow's brainstorming, workspace isolation, documentation, implementation, verification, review, and integration phases while omitting the separate plan creation and its review. Follow these steps and require explicit user confirmation before advancing to the next stage.

Deliverable Saves

Whenever this workflow saves a deliverable, also save any corresponding design/plan files in the same change so the artifact and its rationale stay together.

Workflow File Edits

Do not edit workflow files unless the user's current request explicitly asks to change a workflow file or workflow behavior. A workflow path alone can select the workflow context; it is not permission to edit that file. For example, update commands/plan.md ... permits editing the workflow, while commands/plan.md add a feature ... to the app does not.

Configuration

<KEY> placeholders in this workflow (for example <PLAN_PATH_PATTERN>) resolve from the Herdrpowers Configuration section of the repository's instruction files (CLAUDE.md / AGENTS.md). If that section is missing, run the pack's init workflow first: /herdrpowers:init on Claude Code plugin installs, or commands/init.md otherwise.

Orchestration

/quick skips the plan, not the independence. The final review goes through the orchestration skill via a reset-backed submit, with using-herdr-sibling-panes as the transport.

Resolve the repository's assignments and review gates as orchestration describes before the first delegation: .herdrpowers/config.yaml first, then orchestration/roles.yaml for anything it omits. A gate set to enabled: false is skipped and named in the final report.

Routing comes from assignments:, not from this file, and the resolved YAML is the source of truth for every default. The scoped implementation may run in the orchestrator pane — the change is small by definition — or go to the pane its complex-coding / simple-coding assignment names. test-authoring, chores, and verification follow their assignments. The final-branch-review assignment resolves to any idle pane of its role's agent type(s) via a reset-backed submit — once per entry when its role binds to a list of agent types.

  • In-process subagents are not used for workflow work, and the Agent tool is not dispatched for it — with one exception: a review task whose resolved mode is orchestrator runs in a fresh subagent the orchestrator spawns.

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.

quick is a command published in the GitHub repository transparent-pegasus/herdrpowers (11 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 12 tokens to every session and 2,298 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.
