groove-utilities-task-create

groove-utilities-task-create is a skill for Claude Code from andreadellacorte/groove. It costs 16 tokens per session (699 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A task-creation action that adds a work item to the configured backend with a title, type, status, optional parent, and detailed description when needed. It returns the new task's ID.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create features, bugs, plans, or stage tasks, link them to a larger task when appropriate, and receive an identifier for later reference.
Why use it?
It gives task creation one consistent set of rules, including a default in-progress status and a requirement for enough detail on real work. It also avoids creating tasks when no backend is configured.

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

groove-utilities-task-create 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 9d 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.

Outcome

A task is created in the configured backend with a title, type, status, optional parent, and (for non-trivial tasks) a rich body. The task ID is returned for reference. This command is the single source of truth for how tasks are created — other skills (work compound, daily, etc.) that need to create tasks must follow this spec and call this skill rather than defining their own creation rules.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Task exists in backend with all required fields populated
  • Task ID is shown to user after creation
  • Non-trivial tasks (feature work, bugs, plans, stage tasks) have a rich body — never create with an empty body when the task represents real work or a stage
  • Parent is set when context suggests one (e.g. stage task under a daily or work epic)

Constraints

  • Read tasks.backend from .groove/index.md to determine backend
  • If tasks.backend: none, no-op with friendly message
  • If title not provided in arguments, ask user for title and type before proceeding
  • Infer parent from current context (open tasks, recent work) and confirm with user if ambiguous
  • Default status is in-progress (not todo) — tasks are created when work is being done
  • Do not auto-mark any task as completed during creation
  • Backend mappings:
    • beans: beans create "<title>" -t <type> --parent <id> -s in-progress; body via beans update <id> -d "<body>" or by editing the task file under .groove/tasks/ if the backend is file-based
    • linear: create issue via linear CLI or MCP with appropriate team/project
    • github: gh issue create --title "<title>" --body "<body>" --milestone <milestone>
  • Body (standard): For any non-trivial task, always supply a body. Use the backend's body/description field (or task file content). Standard body sections: Context (what work or session this task belongs to), Goal (what "done" means at a high level), Acceptance Criteria (checklist of concrete conditions), Links (to CHANGELOG, specs, learned files, or other artifacts). Omit a section only if it truly does not apply.
  • Type: Use the backend's types (e.g. beans: task, bug, feature, epic, milestone). Stage and bookend tasks (daily Start/End, work stages such as "YYYY-MM-DD, Compound — topic") use type task when the backend has no chore (e.g. beans).
  • Hierarchy: Set parent when the task is part of a larger unit (e.g. a daily, an epic). If the caller does not specify a parent, infer from context when possible.
  • Always echo the created task ID and title back to the user

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.
