A task-breakdown tool that turns a planned deliverable into small, ordered work items, with each item designed to be reviewed and tested separately.

Use it after planning a project to create implementation, research, design, or testing tasks for individual work sessions.

It makes a large piece of work easier to execute by showing dependencies and defining concrete units of progress.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00104	$0.01044
Opus 5.5	$0.00042	$0.00418
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00021	$0.00209
Haiku 4.5	$0.00010	$0.00104

Measured 26d ago against content hash 27eb0b44deb4, method: parsed. Prices are Anthropic first-party input rates as of 2026-10-07, from the pricing page.

Security

Grade A, and why

aid-detail 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 26d 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.

Detail — The Ultimate Breakdown

Break each deliverable from PLAN.md into small, sequential, testable tasks. Each task = one agent session = one reviewable unit = one human review.

⚠️ Pre-flight Checks

Check 1: Locate Work

If arg provided → use that work directory
If no arg → enumerate works cross-worktree: run bash .aid/runtime/scripts/works/enumerate-works.sh (main tree + every git worktree; never the local .aid/works/ glob, which is empty on master), taking each record's field-1 work_id
Single record → auto-select it
Multiple records → list them, ask user to choose
Zero records on any worktree → STOP. "No works found. Run /aid-describe first."

Locate + Enter the Work's Worktree

As soon as Check 1 resolves the work id and before Check 2 checks for .aid/works/{work}/PLAN.md, follow .aid/runtime/templates/downstream-worktree-entry.md to normalize <work-id> to its bare work-NNN branch name, locate the worktree (which always exits 0 and returns <path>\t<status>), and enter the returned path. Keep the defensive empty-path/non-zero backstop that stops rather than operate blindly — it should not fire against the real helper. Never create a new worktree — creation belongs to the work-starting skills only.

Check 2: Verify PLAN.md Exists

Check for .aid/works/{work}/PLAN.md
If missing → STOP. "No PLAN.md found. Run /aid-plan first."

Check 3: Verify Not in Plan Mode

✅ Default or Auto-accept edits → Proceed.
❌ Plan mode → STOP.

State Detection

State detection reads the files on disk, every run; nothing remembered from an earlier run counts as state.

No deliveries/delivery-NNN/tasks/task-NNN/DETAIL.md exists under .aid/works/{work}/ → FIRST-RUN
At least one deliveries/delivery-NNN/tasks/task-NNN/DETAIL.md exists → REVIEW
Tasks complete and grade ≥ minimum → DONE

Print the state-entry line and "you are here" map:

FIRST-RUN:

[State: FIRST-RUN] — No task files yet; begin proposing task breakdown per deliverable.
aid-detail  ▸ you are here
  [● FIRST-RUN ] → [ REVIEW ] → [ DONE ]

What ships with it

5 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
