board-column-flow

board-column-flow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from makifbaysal/tasktrooper. It costs 34 tokens per session (1,022 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A description of the task board's columns and the rules for moving work between them. It explains which stages belong to the architect, developers, QA, product manager, and human reviewer.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps report task status, follow the correct path from backlog to release, handle rejected work, and understand when a task is blocked by another task.
Why use it?
It prevents tasks from skipping required checks or being moved by the wrong person. It also distinguishes ordinary feature work, investigation work, and technical work with no user-facing change.

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

board-column-flow 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 8d 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.

Board Column Flow

Overview

The board has more columns than the PM acts in. Knowing which columns belong to the human, the architect, and QA keeps you from moving a task through a gate that isn't yours.

The columns

Two spines — a given task only passes through the columns its type needs:

task / bug:  backlog → todo → in_progress → code_review → ready_for_qa
             → in_qa → pm_uat → human_uat → done → released

analiz:      backlog → todo → in_progress → analiz_review → done → released

need_revision ← any gate that rejects (code_review, in_qa, pm_uat, human_uat, analiz_review)
              → back to in_progress' owner, then forward again from where it left

blocked ← parked here automatically while any blocked_by task is open
        → released automatically when the last one lands

task_type: "technical" (no user-facing behaviour) skips pm_uat — QA routes it straight to human_uat. need_revision is not a stage in the line — it is where every gate sends work back, and the PM is not dispatched there: act on a need_revision task only if the stakeholder raises it in chat. done → released is release-engineer's step, not yours.

Who owns each gate

Column Owner PM action?
backlog PM Yes — create tasks here by default; stakeholder prioritizes
todo assignee agent (auto) Move approved tasks here to start them
in_progress developer No
analiz_review human No — the human approves the architect's plan (→ done) or rejects it (→ need_revision)
code_review system-architect No — architect advances to ready_for_qa or need_revision
ready_for_qa QA (queue — QA takes it into in_qa) No
in_qa QA (testing in progress) No
need_revision developer / architect Not dispatched here; act only if the stakeholder asks in chat
pm_uat PM Yes — verify against AC by walking each flow yourself in the browser or on a device; QA's evidence is a cross-check, not a substitute (see pm-uat-review). Skipped for task_type: "technical".
human_uat stakeholder No — stakeholder reviews
done / released — Terminal; released per project convention, by release-engineer

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.
