milestones

milestones is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from alunduil/alunduil-chezmoi. It costs 51 tokens per session (1,055 once invoked), scanned A, original, 0BSD.

A guide for creating and managing GitHub milestones, which group issues toward a defined release, date, or project outcome.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding, naming, scoping, assigning, or closing a milestone and deciding which issues belong in it.
Why use it?
It helps teams choose clear milestone names and prevents milestones from becoming mixed-purpose labels or unordered task lists.

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

milestones 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 12d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 105 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Milestones

A milestone is a finite, scoped group of issues converging on a shipping or closing event. If it doesn't converge, it's a label.

Pick one axis per project

  • Release-anchored — name = the version it targets: v1.0.0, v1.1.0 (semver), or 1.0.0.0 (PVP). Best when the project ships releases. Pre-stable work collapses to one placeholder — v0.1.0 (semver) or 0.0.1.0 (PVP) — since those names already mean "not yet production-ready"; don't fan out across pre-1.0 versions.
  • Date-anchored — name = the calendar window: 2026-Q2, 2026-05, Sprint 23. Best when work is time-bounded.
  • Theme-anchored — name = the outcome: Auth overhaul, Public beta. Best for project phases not pegged to a release or window.

Don't mix axes within one project — v1.1.0 and 2026-Q2 and Auth overhaul together leaves contributors guessing where to file. Pick one and inherit it for the next milestone.

Description: outcome, not inventory

The description states the user-visible outcome the milestone delivers — present-tense, the way you'd phrase an OKR objective. Issues are the actions; the milestone is what those actions add up to.

  • Outcome-shaped: "Auth flows can be configured without code changes." "Cold-start latency under 200ms on the free tier."
  • Not outcome-shaped: "Refactor auth middleware." (That's a task — file as an issue.) "All v1.1 work." (Restates the title — adds nothing.) A list of issue links. (Readers can see those.)
  • Optional: a short non-goals line to bound scope.

The description is the contract the convergence test runs against — "does closing this issue advance this outcome?"

When not to use a milestone

  • Categorical tag (area, type, priority) → label.
  • Ongoing planning surface across many issues → Project board.
  • Ad-hoc "see also" between two issues → plain #N mention or the issue-links skill.

Due dates

  • Release- / date-anchored: set the due date to the release date or window end. Slipping the date is fine; missing data is worse than imprecise data — the rollup needs a horizon.
  • Theme-anchored: skip unless there's a real deadline.

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.

milestones is a skill published in the GitHub repository alunduil/alunduil-chezmoi (2 stars, last pushed today), licensed 0BSD. It adds 51 tokens to every session and 1,055 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
