project

A workflow skill that uses GitHub Issues as the shared project plan. It reads issue details from the current branch and records progress, decisions, commits, and pull requests there.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find the issue linked to a branch, review its checklist and comments, report progress, and close the issue when work is finished.
Why use it?
It keeps task context visible and versioned for the whole team instead of leaving plans in a local file or one agent session.

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

project 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 2d 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 — 196 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

GitHub Project Sync

Bridge between coding-agent sessions and GitHub Issues/Projects. Issues are the plan — agents read them for context and update them with progress.

Core Concept

GitHub Issues replace local PLAN.md files. Each issue contains:

  • Scope and constraints
  • Task breakdown (checkboxes)
  • Design decisions and rationale
  • Implementation notes (via comments)
  • Linked commits and PRs

This means project context is shared, versioned, and visible to every team member and their agents — not locked in local handoff files.

Actions

Check current issue (auto on session start)

Detect the current branch and find its linked issue:

# Get current branch
BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current)

# Extract issue number from branch name (e.g., feat/123-description, fix/42-title)
ISSUE_NUM=$(echo "$BRANCH" | grep -oE '[0-9]+' | head -1)

# Read the issue for context
if [[ -n "$ISSUE_NUM" ]]; then
  gh issue view "$ISSUE_NUM" --comments
fi

If an issue is found, present a brief summary:

  • Issue title and status
  • Task checklist progress (X/Y completed)
  • Most recent comment (latest context)
  • Assigned labels and milestone

Update issue with progress

After completing work or at session end:

# Add a progress comment
gh issue comment ISSUE_NUM --body "## Progress Update

### Completed
- [x] Task description
- [x] Another task

### Files Modified
- \`path/to/file.ts\` — description of change

### Notes
Any decisions made or context for next session.

### Next Steps
- [ ] Remaining work"

Check off tasks in issue body

When tasks from the issue body are completed:

# View current issue body, update checkboxes, edit
gh issue edit ISSUE_NUM --body "$(updated body with checked items)"

View project board status

# List issues assigned to you
gh issue list --assignee @me --state open

# List issues in a milestone
gh issue list --milestone "v2.0"

# List project items
gh project item-list PROJECT_NUM --owner ORG --format json

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.

project is a skill published in the GitHub repository darkroomengineering/cc-settings (42 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 45 tokens to every session and 1,290 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 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.
