timetracker

timetracker is a skill for Claude Code from AlpacaLabsLLC/skills-for-architects. It costs 81 tokens per session (2,226 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An evidence-based work-log helper that reconstructs project activities from dated plans, decisions, meetings, reports, and tasks. It records confirmed entries in a TIMELOG.md file.

In plain words
What is it for?
Preparing daily or weekly timesheets, answering what work was done, and adding manually confirmed durations to a project time log.
Why use it?
It helps create defensible time descriptions without guessing how many hours were worked.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill enumerates or reads other installed skills. Access to other skills' SKILL.md files or the skills directory reveals prompt instructions, capabilities, and secrets that should be invisible to peer skills.
    Fix: Remove all code or instructions that list or read other skills' files or directories. Skills should operate independently; cross-skill access is a privilege escalation.

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

timetracker 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 163 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/as:timetracker — Evidence-Based Manual Time Tracking

Harness note: use /as:<skill> on Claude Code and $<skill> on Codex. Resolve <skill-root> as the directory containing this loaded SKILL.md and <plugin-root> as the plugin root that contains skills/, and use equivalent native tools when host tool names differ.

Reconstruct defensible work descriptions from project evidence, ask the user for every duration, preview the proposed rows, and append confirmed entries to one project-level TIMELOG.md.

Usage

/as:timetracker today
/as:timetracker yesterday
/as:timetracker this week
/as:timetracker 2026-07-13 through 2026-07-17
/as:timetracker correct E0012: this was 1.5 hours, not 2.0

Hard rules

  1. Evidence suggests descriptions, never duration. Never infer hours, start or stop times, billing status, billable category, or completeness from artifact counts, commit counts, timestamp spans, modification times, task status, or meeting duration.
  2. Every duration comes from the user. Candidate rows always show a blank Hours field. Require a positive user-supplied decimal duration for every selected row before preview or append.
  3. Preview before mutation. Show the exact rows, including IDs, dates, decimal hours, descriptions, sources, and any correction reference. Append only after explicit confirmation.
  4. Append only. Never edit, delete, reorder, renumber, or reuse an existing entry. Corrections are new rows that reference the original entry.
  5. Keep permanent identity. IDs use E0001, E0002, and so on. Allocate the next ID as the highest parseable existing E-number plus one, including corrective entries.
  6. Cite the trail. Store project-relative Markdown source links. Preserve all distinct relevant sources when several artifacts support one description.
  7. Do not equate activity with a complete timesheet. Report the paths and evidence channels inspected. A quiet or unreadable source means unknown, not no work.
  8. Preserve malformed logs. If TIMELOG.md cannot be parsed reliably, report the problem and stop before mutation. Do not silently replace or repair it.

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.
