project-advisor

project-advisor is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from bks-lab/open-bridge. It costs 73 tokens per session (1,221 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A project-management skill that reads each project's YAML configuration files to apply its field values, rules, and status mappings. GitHub Projects and Azure DevOps Boards are tools for tracking work on software and other projects.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create issues, update project fields, check board health, set up projects, and validate governance.
Why use it?
It keeps issue and board changes consistent with the project's agreed rules instead of relying on memory or ad hoc choices.

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

project-advisor 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 5d 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 — 136 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Project Advisor

Governance layer for project management. Reads per-project configuration from workflow/projects/*.yaml to know field values, governance rules, and state mappings. Actual execution (creating issues, updating fields) goes through the github-projects-manager skill.

This skill is cross-cutting — applies to every repo that uses GitHub Projects or Azure DevOps Boards, not just The Bridge.

Project Registry

Configuration lives in workflow/projects/*.yaml. Each file defines one project:

  • Field values (status, priority, type, size, stage, etc.)
  • Governance rules (K/W/B levels, per-rule overrides)
  • State mappings (project status → normalized state for trackers)
  • Review comment templates
projects/
├── _schema.yaml              # Schema documentation
├── _template.yaml            # Blank template for new projects
├── examples/                 # Neutralized examples (CORE layer)
│   ├── operational.yaml      # Type A: management, coordination
│   ├── technical.yaml        # Type B: software development
│   ├── minimal.yaml          # Type C: workshops, experiments
│   └── ado-project.yaml      # Azure DevOps integration
└── {slug}.yaml               # Actual project configs (USER layer)

When creating issues or updating fields: always read the matching workflow/projects/{slug}.yaml first. Use the field values defined there — never hardcode emojis, status names, or priority values.

When This Skill Activates

  • User asks about project setup or structure
  • User wants to validate board health or check governance
  • Crew-advisor detects untracked work that should be an issue
  • After issue creation (verify governance rules were followed)

Decision Tree

User intent?
├─ "Set up a GitHub project"         → references/setup.md

├─ "Show board" / "What's active?"   → Board Overview (below)
├─ "Check board health"              → references/governance.md (R1-R7) + execution.md (jq queries)
├─ "Update issue status/fields"      → references/execution.md (CLI + GraphQL patterns)
├─ "Convert drafts to issues"        → references/execution.md (Draft-to-Issue section)
├─ "Add a new project"               → Create workflow/projects/{slug}.yaml from _template
└─ General project question           → Answer from governance.md + project config

What ships with it

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.
