DYLA-ai: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/dev-tasks/SKILL.md

dev-tasks is a skill for Claude Code from Federico-Anastasi/DYLA-ai. It costs 42 tokens per session (3,058 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A procedure for breaking an approved software estimate into small developer tasks. It adds one to three assignable pieces of work under each estimate task in estimate.json.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after confirming an estimate to fill its developer-task sections. It expects project context and an existing estimate.json file.
Why use it?
It turns a high-level estimate into work that developers can pick up individually. It also stops the breakdown if the estimate has not been confirmed, avoiding work based on an unfinished plan.

Written for Claude Code: user-invocable in frontmatter. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents); mentions Codex.

This is Federico-Anastasi/DYLA-ai's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on DYLA-ai itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything DYLA-ai configures →

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

dev-tasks 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 10d 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 — 251 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/dev-tasks — Dev tasks

Produces the developer-level breakdown of a confirmed estimate. It does not create a new file: it fills the dev_tasks[] array of every task in projects/{project}/estimate.json (one schema, one hierarchy: epics -> tasks -> dev_tasks).

UX: chat stays conversational. The deliverable is never presented as a markdown table in chat — the user reads it in the viewer next to the chat, from estimate.json. In chat you discuss it in words, citing dev tasks by id and name (e.g. "E2.T3.D1, the request table"). The user does not type ids: every row in the viewer has a chat icon that sends you a ready-made [REFERENCE] — point them at that button when it is unclear which row they mean. When you cite a chapter of the brief, write [[brief:Chapter title]]: it renders as a clickable reference that opens the document at that point.


PROTOCOL

  1. Read context.md and estimate.json — is the estimate confirmed?
  2. If estimate.json does not exist: "Produce the estimate first with /estimate." STOP.
  3. If estimate.json exists but meta.status is not "confirmed": "The estimate is not confirmed yet. Confirm it with /estimate before breaking it down." STOP.
  4. If meta.dev_tasks_status is already present: ask in a questions block (see PHASE 2) whether to regenerate them or edit them
  5. Generate the dev tasks for every task (1-3 each, days summing EXACTLY to task.days)
  6. Write them into estimate.json one epic at a time (Edit, not a full rewrite), with meta.dev_tasks_status: "draft", then read the finished file back and reconcile it
  7. Present a conversational summary (BLOCKING — wait for confirmation or edits)
  8. On confirmation: set meta.dev_tasks_status: "confirmed"
  9. Update context.md

PHASE 1 — CHECK DEPENDENCIES

Read ALL of these before you go on:

  • the brief: projects/{project}/brief.json, or the input document (brief.md, or its extracted text under .extracted/ if it is a PDF or a Word file)
  • projects/{project}/docs/* — client documents (binaries have their text extracted under .extracted/)
  • projects/{project}/context.md
  • projects/{project}/data_model.json — if it exists
  • projects/{project}/estimate.json
  • knowledge/ — if the folder exists: naming conventions, house patterns, client specifics. If a convention matters and nothing there covers it, ask the user

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.
