dotclaude: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/to-tasks/SKILL.md

to-tasks is a skill for Claude Code from akapet00/dotclaude. It costs 56 tokens per session (1,803 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planning tool that turns PLAN.md, and optionally RESEARCH.md, into TASKS.md, a step-by-step task list for an autonomous coding loop.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after creating a project plan to produce an implementation checklist, while checking the available project commands and existing task files first.
Why use it?
It separates planning from implementation so the coding agent receives clear, manageable tasks instead of a broad project description. It only runs when explicitly requested with /to-tasks or to-tasks.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: disable-model-invocation in frontmatter. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions AGENTS.md.

This is akapet00/dotclaude's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on dotclaude itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything dotclaude configures →

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

to-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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 211 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

TO-TASKS

Turn PLAN.md (and optional RESEARCH.md) into a TASKS.md the autonomous loop can execute one task at a time.

Do not implement anything in this phase. Do not write PRD-style narrative — this is a task list. Stay agent-agnostic: refer to "the coding agent" or "the autonomous loop", never a specific assistant.

High-level overview

  1. Locate inputs: PLAN.md (required), RESEARCH.md (optional).
  2. Study them end to end.
  3. Ask only the critical clarifying questions if real ambiguity remains.
  4. Discover project commands and conventions. Ask only if undiscoverable.
  5. Write TASKS.md to the project root unless I specify otherwise. Include only sections with real content.

Step 1 — Locate inputs

Look for PLAN.md and RESEARCH.md in the project root or the location I specified.

If PLAN.md is missing, stop and ask me to create it. If TASKS.md already exists, see Existing TASKS.md below — never overwrite silently.

Step 2 — Minimal clarification

Read both inputs end to end. Ask questions only if one of these is genuinely unclear:

  • Objective — what problem this solves
  • Work type — feature, refactor, research, migration, etc.
  • Constraints — time, compute, scope
  • Verification — how "done" is checked

One round of questions, max. If everything is clear, skip questions and proceed.

Step 3 — Discover commands and conventions

Determine lint, type-check, test, and run commands plus the tech stack. Use this priority order:

  1. CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md in the project root — authoritative if present.
  2. Project config files:
    • pyproject.toml — [tool.ruff], [tool.pytest], [project.scripts]
    • package.json — the scripts section
    • Makefile — targets like lint, test, check, run
    • Cargo.toml, go.mod, or other language-specific configs
    • .github/workflows/*.yml — CI steps often reveal canonical commands
    • README.md — frequently documents run/test/lint
  3. Ask me if commands cannot be determined from the above. If I answer verbally and no AGENTS.md exists, suggest I add one for future sessions.

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.
