haiku-quick

haiku-quick is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from gigsmart/haiku-method. It costs 18 tokens per session (586 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A quick mode for handling a small coding task in one workflow stage. It can ask one clarifying question when the request is unclear and then starts the task in the most suitable work area.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for focused tasks such as a small bug fix or a minor code change.
Why use it?
It reduces the setup needed for simple requests while still resolving basic ambiguity before work begins.

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

haiku-quick 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 4d 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 — 28 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Quick Mode

A quick task is a regular intent in quick mode (single-stage). The workflow engine's elicitation chain handles studio + stage selection; the only difference vs /haiku:haiku-start is that mode is locked to quick (skipping the mode-elicit step).

Process

  1. Prelaborate briefly. If the task description is vague, ask ONE clarifying question via AskUserQuestion with options[]. Otherwise skip.
  2. Create the intent with haiku_intent_create:
    • title: 3–8 words, ≤80 chars, single line. NOT a truncated description. Good: "Fix login button padding". Bad: "Fix login button padding on mobile because…"
    • description: 2–5 sentences of context.
    • studio_candidates (REQUIRED): the 2–4 studios that best fit, from haiku_studio_list. Fetch the list, pick the closest matches, pass their canonical names. The tool rejects the call without it (and tells you to fetch the list and retry).
    • Do NOT pass mode or stages — engine-managed. The tool will reject them.
  3. Drive the lifecycle by calling haiku_run_next { intent: "<slug>" }. The workflow engine routes to select_studio first; the agent calls haiku_select_studio.
  4. After studio is selected, the engine routes to select_mode. Call haiku_select_mode { intent: "<slug>", options: ["quick"] } — passing options: ["quick"] locks the mode without showing the picker (this is the only thing that distinguishes /haiku:haiku-quick from /haiku:haiku-start).
  5. The engine then routes to select_stage. Call haiku_select_stage { intent: "<slug>" } — this elicits a single stage from the studio's stage list.
  6. Drive forward. Each subsequent haiku_run_next advances through the pre-stage intent review and into the chosen stage.

Guardrails

  • If the task needs multiple stages, stop and suggest /haiku:haiku-start instead — don't cram it into a single stage.
  • The agent NEVER passes mode or stages directly to haiku_intent_create. Both are engine-controlled.
  • The user picks the stage via haiku_select_stage's elicit — the agent does not pre-fill it unless the user already explicitly chose one in conversation, in which case pass options: ["<chosen-stage>"].

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.

haiku-quick is a skill published in the GitHub repository gigsmart/haiku-method (24 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 18 tokens to every session and 586 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
