planner-task-decomposition

planner-task-decomposition is a skill for Cursor from budagov-lab/DreamTeam. It costs 32 tokens per session (429 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planning workflow that turns a large development goal into epics, groups of related tasks, and assigns each group to a sub-planner.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for new goals, large features, task breakdowns, or reorganizing work after a meta-planner recommendation.
Why use it?
It keeps high-level planning separate from detailed task-file creation, making dependencies and ownership clearer.

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

planner-task-decomposition 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.

What it actually says

Planner Task Decomposition

CRITICAL: Planner Delegates to Sub-Planner

Planner MUST NOT create task files directly. Planner creates epic outline, then dispatches Sub-Planner via mcp_task for each epic. Sub-Planner creates task files.

Left/Right: When you need planning, call planner (NOT planner-sub). Planner will call planner-sub per epic.

When to Use

  • New goal or epic to implement
  • User requests task breakdown or planning
  • Meta Planner requests task resplitting

Workflow (Planner)

  1. Read context: .dreamteam/memory/architecture.md, .dreamteam/memory/summaries.md
  2. Break into epics — 5–50 blocks. Write .dreamteam/docs/epics/[goal-slug].md with epic titles + short descriptions.
  3. For each epicmcp_task with subagent_type: planner-sub, prompt:
    • "Expand epic N: [title + 5–10 line desc]. Create TXXX–TYYY. Dependencies: [Tprev]." (First epic: deps [].)
  4. After each Sub-Planner — Terminal: python -m dreamteam sync-tasks
  5. Return when all epics expanded. No task limit — system supports thousands of tasks.

What Sub-Planner Does (planner-sub)

  • Reads epic + ID range from Planner prompt
  • Creates task files in .dreamteam/tasks/
  • Returns "DONE. Created TXXX–TYYY (N tasks)."

Rules

  • No circular dependencies
  • Small tasks: 1–3 files per task, ~15–30 min each, single deliverable
  • Dependencies must reference existing task IDs
  • Planner never creates task_XXX.md — only Sub-Planner does

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.
