ackit-workflow

ackit-workflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Cynrath/agent-context-kit. It costs 26 tokens per session (722 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for ACKit that organizes repository work around documentation, tasks, checklists, and evidence of completion. It allows one checklist item to be active at a time.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find or create repository tasks, implement one item at a time, run the task's tests, record results, check criteria, and make focused commits.
Why use it?
It prevents work from becoming untracked or expanding beyond the requested task, while keeping test results and completion notes auditable.

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

ackit-workflow 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.

ACKit Workflow

Activate for any repository work session so tasks stay auditable.

See task lifecycle for statuses, gates, and archive rules.

Steps

  1. Discover work with ackit task list / ackit task show <id>; active work lives in docs/tasks/active/ (completed work lives in docs/tasks/archive/ and is resolved by ID, never treated as open). If none matches, create one with ackit task create "<title>" [--intent INTENT-####] [--spec <path>] [--decision <path>] [--plan <path>] (never invent IDs).
  2. Keep exactly one [~] active checklist item; implement only that item; plan before code.
  3. For workflow-enabled tasks, honor the declared profile: ackit workflow set <id> --profile quick|standard|high-risk, ackit workflow show <id>, ackit workflow advance <id>, ackit workflow verify <id> --outcome pass|fail. Provide intentRef/specRefs/decisionRefs/planRef when the stage requires them; referenced files must exist on disk.
  4. Checkpoint long work: ackit checkpoint create <id> --next-objective "<text>", ackit checkpoint show <id>, ackit checkpoint validate <id>, ackit checkpoint export <id> [--out <file>]; resume with ackit task resume <id>.
  5. Link proof, do not assert it: ackit evidence sync <id>, ackit evidence verify <id> --criterion AC-001 --type test --ref "<proof>", ackit evidence validate <id>; independent check via ackit verification bundle <id> then ackit verification record <id> --verdict <file> / ackit verification show <id>; watch drift with ackit drift check <id> (ackit drift check-active at the pre-commit gate).
  6. Complete only through the composed gate: evidence complete, required verdict PASS/PASS_WITH_WARNINGS with zero blocking findings, stage complete, no unresolved fail attempt, no blocking drift. VERIFY failed -> completed is impossible without explicit ackit task complete <id> --force (tier2 boundary). Never mark [x] without command output in Completion notes.
  7. Archive after final evidence: ackit task archive <id> (bulk ackit task archive --completed [--dry-run] moves completed-only; pending/active/blocked never move). ackit task doctor reports TASK-COMPLETED-IN-ACTIVE for completed work left in active/.
  8. Gates before commit: ackit doctor, ackit task doctor, ackit scan --ci; run the task's own test plan and paste pass/fail counts into Completion notes; focused Conventional Commit, then immediately continue with the next dependency-ready task.

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.

ackit-workflow is a skill published in the GitHub repository Cynrath/agent-context-kit (14 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 26 tokens to every session and 722 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
