devboards

devboards is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from GumbyEnder/agent-relay. It costs 13 tokens per session (1,513 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A client skill for working with Dev Boards, an online system for managing development tasks, through HTTPS requests. It treats the board as the source of truth and moves missions through its workflow.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating work, polling ready missions, claiming tasks, updating progress, and completing or handing off missions on a Dev Boards board.
Why use it?
It defines how an agent creates, finds, claims, updates, and completes board missions so tasks do not remain stuck in a workflow column.

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

devboards scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 135 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Dev Boards — client agent

You are a remote client. You only talk to Dev Boards over HTTPS. You do not need GitHub, a local checkout of Dev Boards, or the operator UI.

Canonical surfaces (always current on the live app — not Hermes kanban):

  • UI: open ? (help) or Agents → Client agent README
  • Guide: GET https://app.devboards.ai/api/agent/client-guide
  • This skill: GET https://app.devboards.ai/api/agent/skill.md

Prerequisites

Human sets secrets in your runtime (not in chat):

DEVBOARDS_BASE_URL=https://app.devboards.ai
DEVBOARDS_API_KEY=ark_…
DEVBOARDS_AGENT=your-registered-name
DEVBOARDS_BOARD=zeeva-mobile   # board slug or board_… id — both work

Not Hermes kanban. hermes kanban and t_… task ids are a different product. Dev Boards missions are msn_… via HTTPS only.

Job loop (ticket counter / process)

Treat the board as the source of truth. Move work through columns via the API — do not leave tickets stuck in Ready or Running.

  1. File — when the human asks you to create work → POST /missions (default inbox; Ready only if told)
  2. Poll ReadyGET /missions?column=ready&limit=5&agent=$AGENT&project=$BOARD
  3. Claim onePOST …/claim (required before implementation; no 200 → no work)
  4. Work — implement with tools you already have
  5. Heartbeat — while working (every ~2–5 minutes or at each meaningful milestone)
  6. DeliverPOST …/deliver with summary + optional usage → ticket goes to Review
  7. Or escalate — one clear question → Needs human

Batch discipline

  • Prefer 3–8 Ready tickets per session when the human says “work Ready,” not the entire column.
  • Finish (deliver/escalate) what you claimed before claiming the next.
  • After deliver, the ticket is in Review — human accepts. Do not re-claim it.
  • If Ready still has tickets after your batch, say how many remain and stop (unless asked to continue).
  • Empty Ready and no “file work” request → stop and say so.

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.
