In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to define the work for a client engagement, including objectives, deliverables, tasks, deadlines, completion requirements, and out-of-scope items.
Why use it?
It prevents disagreements about what the project includes, excludes, and must deliver. It also provides a process for handling requested changes.

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

memstack-business-scope-of-work 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.

📐 Scope of Work: Defining project boundaries and deliverables...

Generates a formal Scope of Work document with objectives, deliverables, acceptance criteria, in/out scope definitions, work breakdown structure, milestones, and change request process.

Activation

When this skill activates, output:

📐 Scope of Work, Defining project scope and deliverables...

Then execute the protocol below.

Context Status
User says "scope of work" or "SOW" or "define scope" ACTIVE
User says "write SOW" or "project scope" or "scope document" ACTIVE
Defining formal project boundaries for a client engagement ACTIVE
Writing internal task lists (no formal scope needed) DORMANT: use Work skill
Writing a proposal (includes pricing/sales) DORMANT: use proposal-writer

Anti-patterns

Trap Reality Check
"The scope is obvious from the proposal" Proposals sell. SOWs define. Same project, different documents, different purpose.
"We don't need to list exclusions" Every scope dispute starts with "I assumed it was included." List what's OUT explicitly.
"Acceptance criteria slow us down" Acceptance criteria prevent "it's not what I wanted" after you've built it. They speed up delivery.
"We'll handle changes informally" Informal changes create informal expectations. Formal change requests protect the timeline and budget.
"Dependencies don't matter yet" Dependencies determine what blocks what. Discovering them mid-project causes delays. Map them upfront.

Protocol

Step 1: Define Project Objectives

Establish what success looks like at the highest level:

## 1. Project Objectives

### Primary Objective
[One sentence: what this project delivers and why it matters]

Example: Build a multi-tenant SaaS dashboard that enables [Client]'s customers
to manage their accounts, view analytics, and configure integrations, replacing
the current manual process that requires 3 support staff.

### Success Criteria
| Criteria | Measurement | Target |
|----------|------------|--------|
| Core functionality | All deliverables pass acceptance criteria | 100% |
| Performance | Page load time under 3 seconds | p95 < 3s |
| Reliability | Uptime during business hours | 99.5% |
| User adoption | Active users within 30 days of launch | > 50% of target audience |
| Support reduction | Decrease in support tickets for covered workflows | > 40% reduction |

Success criteria must be **measurable**. "The client is happy" is not a success criterion.
"Support tickets decrease by 40%" is.

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.
