bk-start is a skill for Claude Code from dandacompany/bluekiwi. It costs 66 tokens per session (5,294 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that starts a registered BlueKiwi workflow and runs its first step immediately. It can also resume a task or start a workflow with an initial prompt.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to select a workflow, start one by numeric ID or name, resume a task by ID, or provide initial context when launching the workflow.
Why use it?
It provides a defined way to begin or resume multi-step work instead of manually deciding which workflow and step to run.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: user-invocable in frontmatter. Also seen: names the AskUserQuestion tool; positional $N argument; mentions Claude Code.

Not installable: its command points at a path on the author’s own machine, so it runs nowhere else. The line is /Users/dante/workspace/project.

Good fit Use it to select a workflow, start one by numeric ID or name, resume a task by ID, or provide initial context when launching the workflow.

Getting it into your agent

There is no command for this one: it runs only inside a plugin, and the catalogue could not identify which plugin ships it. The source is linked below.

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

bk-start scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 9d 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 459 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Asking questions across runtimes: wherever this skill says AskUserQuestion, use your host runtime's native structured-question tool: AskUserQuestion (Claude Code), clarify (Hermes Agent), requestUserInput (Codex CLI), question (opencode). Always present the choices through that tool rather than plain prose. If the runtime has no such tool, list the options as numbered text and wait for the user's reply before proceeding.

BlueKiwi Workflow Start

Select a registered workflow, create a task, and immediately execute the first step.

Argument Handling

Parse the argument string with this precedence (first match wins):

Pattern Meaning Action
(none) No argument Fetch workflow list, ask user to select via AskUserQuestion. Also run Session Restore first.
#<taskID> (starts with #, rest numeric) Resume a specific task Skip workflow selection, jump straight to advance(task_id=N, peek=true) and continue that task
<digits> only Workflow numeric ID Skip the list UI, call start_workflow(workflow_id=N) directly
<name> :: <prompt> Workflow name/ID + initial context Match workflow by name or ID, pass everything after :: as context
<name> Workflow name match Fuzzy-match the workflow list, propose the best match as Recommended

The :: separator can combine with #<taskID> or <ID> forms too (e.g. /bk-start 42 :: review PR #77).

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.
