task-master.skeleton

A backlog prioritizer that scores unfinished tasks across four dimensions and orders them. A backlog is a list of work items; completed tasks are skipped.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to read open tasks, evaluate their details and dependencies, calculate their priority scores, and produce an ordered list for the next work.
Why use it?
It turns a large, mixed list of unfinished work into a reasoned order based on factors such as impact and risk.

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

task-master.skeleton 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.

Task Master — Backlog Oncelik Siralayici

Backlog'daki tum gorevleri 4 boyutlu puanlama ile degerlendirir ve oncelik sirasi olusturur. Kullanim: /task-master



Step 1 — Gorevleri Topla

backlog task list --plain

Tum gorevleri listele. Her gorev icin asagidaki bilgileri cikar:

  • ID
  • Baslik
  • Durum (To Do, In Progress, Done)
  • Oncelik (varsa)
  • Etiketler (varsa)
  • Bagimlilklar (varsa)

KURAL: "Done" durumundaki gorevleri ATLA. Sadece "To Do" ve "In Progress" gorevleri puanla.

Her gorevi detayli okumak icin:

backlog task <id> --plain

Step 2 — 4 Boyutlu Puanlama

Her gorevi 4 boyutta degerlendir (1-10 arasi):

2.1 — Etki (Impact) — Agirlik: x3

Gorev tamamlandiginda projeye ne kadar deger katar?

Puan Anlam
9-10 Kritik is fonksiyonu, olmadan proje calismaz
7-8 Onemli ozellik, kullanici deneyimini ciddi etkiler
5-6 Faydali iyilestirme, gorunur fark yaratir
3-4 Kucuk iyilestirme, "nice to have"
1-2 Kozmetik, minimal etki

2.2 — Risk (Risk) — Agirlik: x2.5

Bu gorev yapilmazsa ne olur?

Puan Anlam
9-10 Guvenlik acigi, veri kaybi riski, yasal sorun
7-8 Performans sorunu, kullanici kaybi riski
5-6 Teknik borc birikimi, bakim zorlugu
3-4 Kucuk teknik borc, ileride sorun olabilir
1-2 Risk yok, tamamen opsiyonel

2.3 — Bagimllik (Dependency) — Agirlik: x2

Baska gorevler buna bagimli mi?

Puan Anlam
9-10 5+ gorev buna bagimli, blocker
7-8 3-4 gorev bagimli
5-6 1-2 gorev bagimli
3-4 Dolayili bagimlilik var
1-2 Bagimsiz, hicbir sey etkilemez

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.
