cdkd: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/work-issues/SKILL.md

work-issues is a skill for Claude Code from go-to-k/cdkd. It costs 104 tokens per session (1,763 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A workflow for taking already-filed GitHub issues from triage through a verified release. It coordinates safe work on several non-overlapping issues and uses issue comments to claim them before editing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to select suitable open issues, claim them, fix and verify the bugs against real AWS services, merge the changes, publish a release, and install the updated build.
Why use it?
It reduces duplicate work between agents and keeps bug fixes moving through implementation, testing, merging, releasing, and rebuilding.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: argument-hint in frontmatter. Also seen: mentions subagents; mentions AGENTS.md.

This is go-to-k/cdkd's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on cdkd 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 cdkd 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

work-issues 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 18d 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 — 119 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Work Filed Issues

Drive as many OPEN issues as the run can carry to merged, released, installed fixes. The differentiator over "fix issue #N" is safe, collision-free PARALLELISM.

The golden rule: decide the set FIRST, claim it on the issues, THEN edit. The issue comment is the lock — it is what stops two agents fixing the same thing and colliding on the same file.

Launch mode: main checkout, or already inside a worktree

The flow creates one worktree per lane — right from the MAIN checkout, wrong when the launch location is ALREADY a linked worktree (an Orca/ADE workspace, a stray cd): git worktree add then NESTS one, and deleting the outer workspace takes the inner directory and its uncommitted work with it.

The PARENT computes which case applies BEFORE stage 0: read references/launch-mode.md and run the probe it holds (the ONLY copy).

  • Before stage 0, because §2's collision scan consumes the answer: IN-PLACE its relative .claude/worktrees/<w> paths resolve to nothing and the scan reports an empty board, reading as "no competing agents".
  • In the PARENT, because stages 0–3 go to a read-only subagent whose return payload carries no git state, so an answer computed there never reaches the party running git worktree add.

State all five printed values — MODE, which is MAIN-CHECKOUT or IN-PLACE, plus LANE_TREE, MAIN_CHECKOUT, LAUNCH_BRANCH (the branch §9 puts back; empty if launched detached) and ORIGIN (not go-to-k/cdkd means a fork run) — in the opening report, written after the probe and before any lane starts, and pass them into the triage dispatch and every lane dispatch. That report is their only recorded copy.

IN-PLACE changes the collision scan's paths, the claim, the branch recipe, the cleanup step, how main is reached, and where the retro branch is created; references/launch-mode.md maps each consequence to the stage that fires it.

How this skill is packaged (read this before stage 0)

This file is a thin orchestrator; the procedure lives in per-stage files under references/. Reading the stage file at stage entry is MANDATORY — the summaries below are not executable on their own. A bare §N points into the file that holds that section.

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.
