tasks

tasks is a command for Claude Code from yknnv/brownspec. It costs 17 tokens per session (101 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that turns an approved design into an ordered list of implementation tasks. It also records which acceptance criteria the tasks cover and notes any gaps.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to break a feature design into smaller, deployable steps and create a matching trace file for coverage review.
Why use it?
It helps prevent work from being started in the wrong order or becoming impossible to deploy partway through. It also makes missing requirements visible before coding begins.

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

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 2mo 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

Use the tasks skill from the Brownspec plugin.

Feature: $ARGUMENTS — if empty, use the most recently modified directory under .brownspec/features/, and say which one you picked.

Write trace.json alongside tasks.md, with files empty. Report acceptance-criteria coverage explicitly, including gaps.

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.
