implementation-manager

implementation-manager is a skill for Claude Code from Jamie-BitFlight/claude_skills. It costs 64 tokens per session (2,235 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A task-state manager for feature implementation plans. It queries, claims, updates, and coordinates work items through their lifecycle.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect task status, manage dependencies, claim work, and coordinate a feature rollout.
Why use it?
It gives an implementation workflow a reliable way to track which tasks are ready, active, or complete.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: disable-model-invocation in frontmatter. Also seen: mentions subagents; mentions Claude Code.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

implementation-manager 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 3d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 5 executable files (scripts/get_task_context.py, scripts/implementation_manager.py, scripts/task_format.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Implementation Manager

Current Task Context

Available features (if in project with plan/ directory): !uv run "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/sam_schema/cli.py" plan list 2>/dev/null

Active task context (if any): !python3 -c "from dh_paths import context_dir; import os; cdir = context_dir(os.environ.get('CLAUDE_CODE_SESSION_ID', '')); files = list(cdir.glob('active-task-*.json')) if cdir.exists() else []; print(files[0].read_text() if files else 'No active task')" 2>/dev/null || echo "No active task"

A skill for querying and managing feature implementation tasks. Provides programmatic access to task status for orchestrators coordinating multi-step feature implementations.

SAM MCP Tool Usage

Use the configured provider's native interface for native state. In a Beads workspace, use bd directly for CRUD, readiness, claims/status, and dependencies. Use SAM MCP or the DH CLI adapter for structured SAM plans, task metadata, artifacts, dispatch, and validation that bd does not provide. See Beads and workflow usage.

Structured SAM Commands

list

List all features with tasks tracked in the project's plan/ directory:

uv run "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/sam_schema/cli.py" plan list

Output:

{
  "items": [
    {
      "plan_id": "P1",
      "feature": "prepare-host",
      "task_count": 8
    }
  ],
  "count": 1
}
status

Get detailed status for a specific feature:

uv run "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/sam_schema/cli.py" plan status --plan-address P1

Output:

{
  "feature": "prepare-host",
  "total_tasks": 8,
  "completed": 8,
  "in_progress": 0,
  "not_started": 0,
  "ready_tasks": [],
  "tasks": [
    {
      "id": "1.1",
      "name": "Add Data Models to shared/models.py",
      "status": "complete",
      "dependencies": [],
      "agent": null,
      "priority": 1,
      "complexity": "low"
    }
  ]
}
ready-tasks

Files

What ships with it

5 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.

Changes

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.

implementation-manager is a skill published in the GitHub repository Jamie-BitFlight/claude_skills (65 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 64 tokens to every session and 2,235 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-09-03.
