keep-goal

keep-goal is a skill for Claude Code from biggora/claude-plugins-registry. It costs 89 tokens per session (1,167 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for preserving project context and task progress across long coding sessions. It uses concise, repository-based notes for bootstrapping, handoffs, and resuming work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare a handoff, resume long-running implementation work, or save verified task context in the project's established location.
Why use it?
It prevents important decisions and current status from being lost when work moves to another session or agent.

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

keep-goal 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 7d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 66 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Keep Goal

Maintain a small, repository-grounded external memory for work that spans sessions. Treat the repository and fresh command output as truth; treat state files as claims that must be checked.

Read state templates before creating or materially restructuring state files. Reuse only the sections the task needs.

Select State Locations

  1. Inspect repository instructions and existing task artifacts for an established state convention.
  2. Reuse the established convention when one exists. Do not create a parallel .agent/ system beside project-owned progress, decision, specification, or task files.
  3. Otherwise use .agent/CONTEXT.md, .agent/PROGRESS.md, and .agent/DECISIONS.md. Store separate specifications at .agent/specs/<slug>.md and execution plans at .agent/tasks/<slug>.md when the task needs them.
  4. Derive one stable, filesystem-safe <slug> from the task and reuse it. Do not create multiple names for the same task.
  5. Keep state concise and task-relevant. Do not invent a project-management system.

Choose a Mode

  • Use Bootstrap when repository context or durable task state is absent or unverified.
  • Use Update/Handoff after a meaningful work step, before pausing, or before another session takes over.
  • Use Resume before continuing work from durable state.

Mode: Bootstrap

  1. Establish the repository root and inspect git status plus recent git log before assigning ownership to any existing change.
  2. Read applicable AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md files, then inspect the README, relevant docs, manifests, lockfiles, build files, and CI workflows.
  3. Discover setup, build, test, lint, type-check, validation, and smoke commands only from project-owned sources such as manifest scripts, build files, contributor docs, or CI. Record each exact command with its source. Never fabricate a likely command.
  4. Capture the project purpose, relevant structure, active constraints, environment assumptions, and current worktree condition. State uncertainty explicitly.
  5. Compare instructions and artifacts. If they conflict, preserve both facts, explain the contradiction, and ask for direction instead of silently choosing or overwriting.
  6. Select state locations using the precedence above. Create the minimum necessary files from the templates; merge verified facts into existing state instead of replacing it wholesale.
  7. Read instruction files for authority and context, but never rewrite AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md automatically.

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.
