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

kanban-tasks 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 10d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 5 executable files (scripts/kanban_cards_from_yaml.py, scripts/kanban-down.sh, scripts/kanban-status.sh, …), 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.

Kanban 任务管理 · 操作指南

底层是本仓库虚拟环境中以 editable 模式安装的 agentao-kanban(console scripts: kanban, kanban-mcp)。 所有命令必须用 uv run kanban …,不要直接 python -m kanban,也不要 pip install

心智模型(先看这里再动手)

  • 状态机:卡片在 INBOX → READY → DOING → REVIEW → DONE 中流转,外加旁路状态 BLOCKED。 唯一合法的状态写入者是 orchestrator;CLI 的 move 是给人/Claude 用的运营手段。
  • 板的位置kanban init 会在当前目录创建 .kanban/(项目根标记)和 workspace/board/(卡片 与事件文件)。从该目录或任意子目录运行 kanban … 都能自动找回这块板,不要带 --board
  • 执行器:默认 mock(离线状态机,CI 安全),加 --executor agentao 才会真正调用四个角色 sub-agent。除非用户明确要求"真跑",默认保持 mock
  • 写锁:所有写命令尊重 .daemon.lock。daemon 跑着的时候不要再用 --force 写卡(仅应急)。
  • 工作区铁律:板一旦由 kanban init 落到 workspace/board/,就不要把卡片相关材料散落到仓库根; 生成的笔记/数据按 AGENTAO.md §Workspaceworkspace/docs/workspace/data/ 等。

前置自检(开工前一次)

uv run kanban --help >/dev/null    # 确认 CLI 可用
uv run kanban doctor               # 板 + 环境体检(无板时会提示先 init)

如果 doctor 报 stale lock / 缺失目录,运行 uv run kanban doctor --fix

工作流

Step 1 — 把用户的需求拆成原子卡片

在动 CLI 之前,先在对话中用一个简短表格列出你打算建的卡,让用户确认或调整:

# title goal priority depends_on acceptance(关键 1-3 条)

拆卡原则(按本项目 AGENTAO.md 的 Code Review 思路:Survey → Classify → Prescribe → Verify):

  1. 原子性:一张卡 = 一个可独立完成、可独立验证的产出。"重构 X 模块"不是卡,"把 X.foo 拆成两个 纯函数并迁移调用点"才是卡。
  2. 依赖显式化:只有真依赖(B 必须等 A 的产出)才用 --depends。同主题不等于依赖。
  3. acceptance 是验收凭据:每张卡至少 1 条 acceptance,写成可被人/CI 直接判定通过/失败的语句 ("uv run pytest tests/foo 全绿"、"workspace/reports/x.md 存在且包含章节 …")。
  4. 优先级保守用:默认 MEDIUMCRITICAL 仅留给阻断其他卡或线上故障类。

Step 2 — 初始化(仅当 .kanban/ 不存在)

uv run kanban init                 # 干净起步:建 .kanban/ + workspace/board/
# 或带示例卡先看效果:
uv run kanban init --demo

如果用户说"先看看 kanban 怎么跑",跑:

uv run kanban init --demo
uv run kanban demo                 # 把 4 张示例卡推到 DONE
uv run kanban list

Step 3 — 建卡

每张卡用一条命令;--acceptance--depends 可重复:

uv run kanban card add \
  --title "把 ingest.py 拆成 reader/parser 两个纯函数" \
  --goal  "降低 ingest.py 圈复杂度并允许独立单测" \
  --priority MEDIUM \
  --acceptance "uv run pytest tests/ingest 全绿" \
  --acceptance "ingest.py 中无对全局状态的读写"

kanban-tasks is a skill published in the GitHub repository jin-bo/agentao (300 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 221 tokens to every session and 6,572 once invoked, about $0.0011 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
