project-intake is a skill for Claude Code from Abilityai/abilities. It costs 110 tokens per session (4,754 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An automated intake tool that turns actionable items from meetings, email, chat, or issue trackers into GitHub Issues. It removes duplicates by meaning and creates tasks with a standard goal, completion definition, context, and validation section.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it in meeting-summary workflows, scheduled jobs, and other automated pipelines to create or locate the correct project task and return its issue number.
Why use it?
It prevents action items from being lost across different communication tools and avoids creating multiple issues for the same request.

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

project-intake 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 6d 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.

Project Intake

ℹ️ First, set expectations: before anything else, print one short line with this skill's version and its most recent change — e.g. project-intake v1.6.1 — recent: arguments no longer break the config resolver. Then proceed.

Purpose

Route any actionable item from any source into the managed registry. This skill is headless — it never calls AskUserQuestion. It is called by domain skills, meeting-summary flows, crons, and composed pipelines. Output: the created or duplicate issue number.

This skill is the only sanctioned programmatic path for creating task issues. /project-task is for interactive human creation; /project-intake is for automated and composed creation.

Arguments

Argument Required Description
--project=<slug> yes Target project slug (from project:<slug> label, or an internal project's folder name)
--title="..." yes Plain imperative title for the actionable item
--source="..." yes URL or short description of origin (meeting link, email subject, Slack permalink, ticket URL)
--owner=<actor> no Accountable party. Defaults to the project's primary owner from the epic.
--priority=pN no p1/p2/p3. Inherits from epic if omitted.
--agent=<name> no Executing agent label if immediately assignable.
--waiting-on=<actor> no The item is parked on an actor outside the registry — applies waiting-on:<actor> and posts the ### Waiting on comment so the steward ages it and the operator sees it in "Your open loops" (standard §14b). Use this whenever intake captures "X owes us an answer".
--dod="item1|item2" no Pipe-separated DoD items. Default: single item derived from title.
--objective="..." no Objective text. Defaults to the title.
--context="..." no Additional context beyond the source link.
--state-news no Flag: item is project-state news, not a task. Post a one-line comment on the epic (return EPIC:#NN), or append it to an internal project's log.md (return PROJECT:<slug>).

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.
