triage-tasks is a skill for Claude Code from AdrianV101/obsidian-pkm-plugin. It costs 27 tokens per session (1,230 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for reviewing open tasks in an Obsidian vault and changing their statuses in batches. It can focus on the current project or include tasks from every project.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find open project tasks, review them interactively, mark selected tasks complete or otherwise update their status, and clear stale work.
Why use it?
It turns scattered pending and active tasks into a reviewable list and makes status updates consistent.

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

triage-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 10d 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.

Triage Tasks — Surface and Batch-Update Open Vault Tasks

Runs interactively: fetch open tasks, show them numbered with completion hints, wait for user decisions, apply updates.

Step 1: Determine Scope

Detect the current project from CLAUDE.md:

Read("CLAUDE.md")  // look for: # PKM: <path>

Extract the vault project path from a line matching /^#\s+PKM:\s*(.+)$/m (e.g., 01-Projects/Obsidian-MCP).

Scope (check skill args first, then default):

  • Current project (default): use the detected project folder
  • All (if args contain "all" or no project detected and user chooses all): omit folder from queries

If CLAUDE.md has no # PKM: line and no scope was specified, ask:

"No project found in CLAUDE.md. Should I triage tasks across all projects, or a specific folder?"

Step 2: Fetch Open Tasks

vault_query({ type: "task", status: "pending", folder: "<project>", sort_by: "priority", sort_order: "desc" })
vault_query({ type: "task", status: "active",  folder: "<project>", sort_by: "priority", sort_order: "desc" })

Omit folder for all-projects scope. If both return empty, report "No open tasks found — all clear!" and stop.

Combine: active tasks first (priority-sorted), then pending (priority-sorted). Assign sequential numbers 1–N.

Step 3: Gather Completion Hints

Collect lightweight signals in two calls — not one call per task.

Activity log (check if any task was recently touched):

vault_activity({ since: "<date 30 days ago as YYYY-MM-DD>", limit: 100 })

Git log (look for commits related to task work):

Bash: git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree 2>/dev/null && git log --oneline --since="30 days ago" | head -50

If git rev-parse fails (not a git repo), skip git hints silently — don't surface an error to the user.

For each task, derive a hint from these results:

  • Task path appears in the activity log with a write tool (vault_update_frontmatter, vault_edit, vault_append): mark "recently updated"
  • Any word from the task's filename (≥ 4 chars, case-insensitive, split on -) appears in a commit message: mark "⚡ git commits"
  • Neither: no hint (omit hint entirely)

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.

triage-tasks is a skill published in the GitHub repository AdrianV101/obsidian-pkm-plugin (13 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 27 tokens to every session and 1,230 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.
