gardener-tasks

gardener-tasks is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from cloudflare/computer. It costs 47 tokens per session (3,764 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for creating and changing Gardener tasks, which are AI maintenance jobs run by GitHub Actions. Each task states when it runs, what information it may read, and which changes it may make.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before creating or editing a task under .gardener/, especially when defining its instructions, permitted tools, or permitted changes.
Why use it?
It helps keep automated maintenance within declared limits and prevents editing generated files that should be recreated by Gardener. It also explains how to generate the related workflow files.

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

gardener-tasks 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 3d 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 — 266 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Gardener tasks

Gardener runs AI maintenance tasks on this repository from GitHub Actions. Each task is one Markdown file: YAML frontmatter says when it runs, what the model may read, and exactly which changes it may make; the body is the model's instructions. A planning job runs the model with only the declared tools and lets it propose only the declared effects. A separate job then applies those proposals. Nothing outside the declaration is possible, whatever the instructions say.

Files

Workflow

  1. Create .gardener/tasks/<dir>/TASK.md. Start from the template below or an existing task.
  2. Run npx @scuffi/[email protected] generate from the repository root (or the repository's own package.json script, if it has one). Use this exact version: a different one produces files the pull request's Check tasks check rejects.
  3. Fix every error generate prints and read its warnings. Repeat until it succeeds.
  4. Commit the TASK.md, .gardener/gardener.lock.json and the .github/workflows/gardener-*.yml changes together. When they reach the default branch, the sync workflow enables the task.

To change a task, edit its TASK.md and run generate again. To remove one, delete its directory and run generate. Never hand-edit generated files.

Read the issue and the code it mentions. If it is missing reproduction steps, expected behaviour or
a version, propose one `issue.comment.create` asking for exactly what is missing. Otherwise
propose nothing. Then finish.

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.
