taskbar-hero

taskbar-hero is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from leonardosilvamelosantos/taskbar-code. It costs 14 tokens per session (276 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A procedure for starting the Task Bar Hero Code desktop widget on Windows. It checks whether the widget is already running and requires Python 3 with Tkinter.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to launch the widget, confirm that it stays running, and inspect its log when startup fails.
Why use it?
It avoids starting a duplicate widget process and helps diagnose cases where the program closes immediately or Python is unavailable.

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

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

taskbar-hero 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 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.

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.

What it actually says

Inicie o Task Bar Hero Code:

  1. Verifique se ja existe um processo pythonw.exe/python.exe com ticker.pyw na linha de comando (ex. via Get-CimInstance Win32_Process no PowerShell). Se existir, avise o usuario que o widget ja esta rodando e pare — nao inicie uma segunda instancia (o ticker.pyw tem uma guarda de mutex que impediria de qualquer forma, mostrando um popup "ja esta em execucao").
  2. Caso contrario, rode:
    pythonw.exe "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/ticker.pyw"
    
  3. Confirme que o processo continua de pe um segundo depois (se encerrar sozinho, leia ~/.claude/taskbar-hero/ticker.log para diagnosticar — mesmo procedimento do INSTALL.md deste repositorio).

Requisitos: Windows 10/11, Python 3.x com Tkinter. Se pythonw.exe nao for encontrado no PATH, avise o usuario e sugira instalar Python (ex. winget install -e --id Python.Python.3.12) antes de tentar de novo.

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.
