mdt

mdt is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from andkirby/markdown-ticket. It costs 96 tokens per session (655 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill for running the MDT Markdown Ticket workflows and creating their ticket or architecture decision record files. An architecture decision record is a written record of an important technical choice.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when creating or updating MDT change requests or decision records, or when running workflows for requirements, behavior scenarios, architecture, tests, tasks, implementation, audits, or technical debt.
Why use it?
It tells the coding agent which workflow instructions and output formats to follow, so generated project artifacts stay 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

mdt 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 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/enforce-tasks.sh, scripts/gen-tasks-status.sh, scripts/update-task-status.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Mdt

Overview

Execute the MDT workflow system and generate CR artifacts exactly as specified by the MDT prompt set. Use the references in this skill for authoritative formats, steps, and file locations.

Quick Start

  1. Identify the requested command (e.g., /mdt:requirements, /mdt:architecture, /mdt:tasks).
  2. Load the matching command file from commands/.
  3. Use references/README.md only when you need extra implementation guidance.
  4. Respect {TICKETS_PATH} from .mdt-config.toml if not provided by context.

Core Rules

  • Always follow the exact output locations and formats from the command file.
  • If a command supports --prep or --part, detect from user arguments; if unclear, ask.
  • Do not invent new sections or formats; mirror the referenced templates.

Runtime Compatibility

  • Use built-in Codex agents via spawn_agent (default, worker, explorer) when a command requires subagents.
  • Treat files in agents/*.md as prompt contracts/templates for those spawned agents.
  • Do not assume a skill-local .mcp.json is auto-loaded by the host session. Use MCP tools available in the active runtime.

Reference Map

  • commands/*.md: Authoritative prompt for each /mdt:* command.
  • references/README.md: Supplemental reference docs and templates.
  • agents/*.md: Subagent role contracts for orchestrated implementation flows.

Command Files

Load only the file you need:

  • /mdt:ticket-creationcommands/ticket-creation.md
  • /mdt:requirementscommands/requirements.md
  • /mdt:bddcommands/bdd.md
  • /mdt:assesscommands/assess.md
  • /mdt:poccommands/poc.md
  • /mdt:domain-lenscommands/domain-lens.md
  • /mdt:domain-auditcommands/domain-audit.md
  • /mdt:architecturecommands/architecture.md

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.
