ship-quick

A workflow for completing one focused coding task outside normal sprint planning. It requires tests, a single focused commit, and adherence to the task specification.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement and commit one self-contained change, with tests written first and project safeguards applied.
Why use it?
It provides a defined quality check for small changes and keeps each change easy to review. It also handles the project-specific setup and file-location rules.

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

ship-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 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 146 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Shipyard: Quick Task

Execute a one-off task outside of sprint planning but with Shipyard's guarantees (write tests first, one focused commit per change, spec compliance).

Context

!shipyard-context quick-task

Path Rules

All file ops use the absolute SHIPYARD_DATA prefix from the context block. No ~, $HOME, or shell variables in file_path — the hooks resolve paths via a shared resolver, and a tilde in file_path lands state in the wrong data dir on worktrees. Bash invocation of shipyard-data is limited to the onboarding command surfaced by context plus releasing the execution lock at completion; no other shipyard-data/shipyard-context shell-out in this skill body; use Read / Grep / Glob for everything else. Never use echo/printf/shell redirects to write state files — use the Write tool (auto-approved for SHIPYARD_DATA). The !-prefixed context block at the top is the only sanctioned context shell-out.

Onboarding gate. If the bundled context contains SHIPYARD_ONBOARDING_REQUIRED=true, run the exact SHIPYARD_ONBOARDING_COMMAND once with Bash, report the CLI output to the user, and STOP. Do not infer setup state by reading or writing Shipyard state files; onboarding decisions are CLI-owned.

Render before asking. Before every AskUserQuestion, render the decision context — the scenarios, concrete examples, tradeoffs, and any verbatim content being approved — as chat text; the tool call then carries only the short question and option labels. A bare AskUserQuestion with no rendered context above it is a bug (the window is too small to carry a real decision). Content that exists only in a Read result, a subagent/Agent return, a dossier file, or the question/option strings themselves does not count as rendered (the UI shows a compact card) — restate it as assistant chat text immediately above the ask.

Input

$ARGUMENTS

Session Guard Cleanup

First context action — planning-session mutex check + execution lock: the shipyard-context quick-task pre-exec block above checks the planning lock, acquires the execution lock, and returns the quick-task context bundle in one CLI call. If that context contains SHIPYARD_LOCK_ACQUIRED=false, echo the SHIPYARD_LOCK_BLOCKED: block text verbatim as the entire response and STOP. If it contains SHIPYARD_LOCK_NOTICE:, echo that stale/corrupt-lock recovery line once, then proceed.

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

ship-quick is a skill published in the GitHub repository Acendas/shipyard (2 stars, last pushed 20d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 14 tokens to every session and 3,091 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 2026-08-31.
