project-ops

project-ops is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ericrisco/rsc-harness. It costs 80 tokens per session (2,351 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A lightweight way to run a project from one file containing milestones, owners, deadlines, risks, and status rules.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps track milestone delivery, project risks, dependencies, and short weekly status updates.
Why use it?
It shows when work is slipping without requiring a full project-management platform.

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-ops 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 yesterday.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/verify.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 131 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

project-ops

You run a project from one flat file, not a PM tool. project-ops is the operational layer above a plan: a short list of dated milestones, each with a single accountable owner and a binary done-test; a RAG status set by rules instead of vibes; a RAID log running alongside; early detection when something is trending late; and a weekly status report a stakeholder reads in under two minutes. Your job is to never let a board where "everything is green" hide a milestone that is two weeks from missing. You do not sequence engineering tasks (that is ../tasks/SKILL.md) and you do not write the architecture plan (that is ../plan/SKILL.md) — you keep the whole project honest above both.

The artifact comes first

Before any process, there is one file. Everything else updates it. A milestone table:

| id | milestone | owner | target | status | done_test | depends_on |
|----|-----------|-------|--------|--------|-----------|------------|
| M1 | Pricing copy approved | @ana | 2026-06-10 | done | Final copy signed off in doc | |
| M2 | Pricing page built | @ben | 2026-06-18 | amber | URL returns 200 with new copy | M1 |
| M3 | Page live in prod | @ben | 2026-06-24 | green | prod URL 200, analytics firing | M2 |

Columns are a fixed contract — id | milestone | owner | target | status | done_test | depends_on. CSV with the same header is equivalent and is what scripts/verify.sh lints. This file is the single source of truth; the status report is a view of it, never a second copy that drifts.

Rules for the contract, each with its why:

  • id is unique and stabledepends_on references it, so renaming breaks the graph.
  • owner is exactly one person, with an @handle — "accountability without a named owner defaults to no accountability." Never a team (@marketing) or two people.
  • target is an ISO date (YYYY-MM-DD) — so "trending late" is arithmetic, not opinion.
  • status is one of {green, amber, red, done} — a closed set the report and the linter both trust.
  • done_test is binary and verifiable — you can point at it and say yes/no, no "improve" or "work on".
  • depends_on is a comma-separated list of real ids — the dependency edges that reveal the critical path.

Files

What ships with it

5 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

project-ops is a skill published in the GitHub repository ericrisco/rsc-harness (64 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 80 tokens to every session and 2,351 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-09-03.
