intake

intake is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jstoup111/ai-conductor. It costs 48 tokens per session (4,196 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A GitHub issue writer for reporting a problem, its impact, evidence, and the observable result expected after it is fixed. It can also pass findings from an automated workflow into later engineering work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to file intake issues for bugs, ideas, or observations that need to enter the project's decision and debugging process.
Why use it?
It gives an engineer enough factual context to start investigating without forcing an unverified solution.

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

intake 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 19d 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 — 356 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Purpose

Authors high-quality intake issues: the write-side twin of /composer's claim side. An intake issue decides WHAT (the problem, its impact, its evidence) and highlights OUTCOMES (what must be observably true when it's fixed). The engineer's DECIDE phase owns HOW. A great intake issue lets a zero-context engineer start debugging immediately — from the evidence in the issue alone — without anchoring them to the filer's first idea of a fix.

This skill applies whether the filer is the operator (from chat or phone) or an agent filing on the operator's behalf (halt monitor, follow-up proposals, bugs discovered mid-build). GitHub's intake issue form (.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/intake.yml) scaffolds the same shape on web/mobile; anything filed via gh issue create must follow it by hand — this skill is how.

The Intake Shape

Four sections. Three are required.

Section Required Contents
Observed yes Evidence of the problem — verbatim artifacts, not narrative
Impact yes One line minimum: who or what hurts, how often, what it costs / unblocks
Desired outcome yes Observable behavior that must hold afterward
Hypotheses no The filer's guesses about HOW — explicitly labeled as guesses

Practices

1. Gather Evidence First — While Context Is Warm

Collect concrete artifacts before writing a word of prose. Evidence is cheapest at the moment of observation; an hour later the logs have rotated and the repro is fuzzy.

Collect whichever of these exist:

  • Exact commands + verbatim output. Copy the real invocation and the real output, trimmed to the relevant lines. Never paraphrase an error message — the exact string is what the engineer will grep for.
  • Log excerpts with their source path and timestamp. e.g. .daemon/daemon.log, monitor.log, CI run URLs. Include a few lines of surrounding context, not just the one scary line.
  • Precise references. file:line, commit SHAs, PR/issue numbers, run IDs. These are evidence, and always welcome — a file path cited as proof is not a "how".
  • Reproduction steps. The minimal sequence a zero-context reader could run to see the problem. State what you expected vs what happened.
  • Frequency and scope data. How many times, since when, how widespread — a grep count, a ledger scan, "3 of the last 5 daemon runs". Turns anecdote into signal.
  • Environment facts when plausibly relevant: versions, branch, config values.

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.

intake is a skill published in the GitHub repository jstoup111/ai-conductor (7 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 48 tokens to every session and 4,196 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-31.
