Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00046 | $0.00320 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00023 | $0.00160 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00064 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00032 |
Grade A, and why
task-decomposer 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.
What it actually says
Task Decomposer
Overview
Break the approved spec and architecture into a small, reviewable task plan for disciplined implementation.
If the work targets a released contract or a new deployed contract version, include compatibility, cutover, and off-chain follow-up tasks instead of treating the change as code-only implementation.
Start Here
Use ../../assets/task-plan-template.md as the output shape.
Write the result to docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-<topic>-tasks.md.
Workflow
- Confirm both the spec and architecture artifacts exist.
- Split work into dependency-ordered tasks with clear handoff points.
- Attach explicit verification steps and review checkpoints to each task.
- Make gtest expectations and artifact updates part of the task order.
- If the work changes a released contract surface, add explicit tasks for compatibility review, generated-client updates, and frontend/indexer cutover where relevant.
- Record rollback notes for risky or stateful changes.
Guardrails
- Keep tasks small enough for TDD and frequent commits.
- Do not merge planning, coding, and validation into one step.
- Make prereqs explicit instead of relying on tribal knowledge.
- Keep the plan executable from the artifact chain alone.
- Do not hide release and compatibility work inside a generic “update contract” task.
What ships with it
3 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.
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.

task-decomposer is a skill published in the GitHub repository gear-foundation/vara-skills (17 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 46 tokens to every session and 320 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.
