triage

triage is a skill for Claude Code from bartolli/kmd. It costs 212 tokens per session (3,917 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for sorting wiki user stories through states such as needs information, ready for an agent, ready for a human, or will not be fixed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to read and update story status and category, recommend the next state, and send underspecified stories back for clarification.
Why use it?
It shows which stories are sufficiently defined and which ones still need decisions or clarification before work can start.

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

triage 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 1mo 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.

Triage — Move Stories Through the State Machine

A small state machine over wiki story files. Lifts Matt Pocock's triage pedagogy onto the wiki's kind: story artifact.

Prerequisites

  • WIKI_SCOPE: <scope> declared in the project instructions. If missing, suggest /wiki.
  • At least one intent under projects/<scope>/intent/ or one story file under projects/<scope>/plan/<plan-name>/. With neither, suggest /to-stories.

Roles

Intents carry no triage labels; their state is status plus one outcome field ([[adr-intent-kind]]):

  • draft — filed, unread by triage
  • active — scheduled: accepted, story not yet written
  • archived with exactly one of promoted_to (story slug), dismissed (reason), fixed_by (regression test path)
  • superseded with superseded_by — merged into another intent, whose sightings absorbed the count

Stories carry two label roles.

Two category roles (story has exactly one):

  • bug — something is broken
  • enhancement — new feature or improvement

Five state roles (story has exactly one, lives in triage_state frontmatter):

  • needs-triage — story needs evaluation
  • needs-info — agent waits on user clarification (in a solo-operator context: the agent is blocked on a user decision)
  • ready-for-agent — fully specified, AFK-ready (an agent can pick it up with no human context)
  • ready-for-human — needs human implementation (judgment, external access, hardware, design review)
  • wontfix — will not be actioned

State transitions: an unlabeled or needs-triage story moves to needs-info, ready-for-agent, ready-for-human, or wontfix. needs-info returns to needs-triage once the user provides the missing input. The user can override at any time — flag transitions that look unusual and confirm before proceeding.

AI disclaimer (GH/GitLab mode only)

When WIKI_ISSUE_TRACKER is github or gitlab, every comment posted to the remote tracker during triage must start with:

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.
