workpad

A skill for maintaining one work-notes comment on each issue, so background sessions can record progress and continue later.

In plain words
What is it for?
Finding or creating an issue workpad, updating its plan and validation notes, and resuming unfinished work.
Why use it?
It keeps ongoing issue work in one place and avoids scattering updates across multiple comments.

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

workpad 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 yesterday.

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.

workpad

バックグラウンドセッションが issue へ集約する作業ノート用コメントを管理するスキル。 issue ごとに ## Codex Workpad コメントを 1 つだけ維持する。再開時は同じコメントを読み直して作業を継続する。

Tracker の判定

操作先は tracker ごとに違う。作業中の repo の WORKFLOW.md frontmatter tracker.kind を読んで分岐する。works repo のみ agents/ai-native/WORKFLOW.md、それ以外は repo root の WORKFLOW.md に置かれている。読み取れない場合は linear として扱う。

以降の手順は tracker 共通の骨格で、具体的な操作だけを Tracker 別操作から引く。

前提

  • 対象 issue identifier (kind: linear なら MH-40kind: github なら #123) が文脈から既知
  • kind: linear は Linear MCP、kind: githubgh が利用可能

スコープ外

  • 別コメントへの分割書き込み。1 issue 1 ワークパッドで固定し、節ごとに別コメントを作らない
  • 他人のコメントへの上書き。自分が作成したコメントのみ再利用する

手順

1. 既存ワークパッドを探す

対象 issue のコメント一覧を取得し、次の条件をすべて満たすコメントを探す。

  • body## Codex Workpad で始まる
  • 作成者が自分自身
  • (kind: linear のみ) 未 resolve である。resolved は人間が意図的に閉じた印として扱い、再利用せず新規作成する

複数該当した時は最新の 1 件を採用し、残りを後段で言及せず放置する (履歴として保つ)。

2a. 既存ワークパッドを更新する

該当コメントが見つかった場合、そのコメント ID を指定して本文を上書きする。

更新内容は「直近の進捗」+「次に取る行動」を反映する。env stamp 行は再生成して上書きする (短い SHA や cwd が変わるため)。

2b. 新規ワークパッドを作成する

該当コメントが無い場合、下記テンプレに沿って本文を作り、issue へコメントを投稿する。

## Codex Workpad

<env-stamp>

### Plan

- [ ] step 1
- [ ] step 2

### Acceptance Criteria

- ...

### Validation

- 実行コマンドと結果

### Notes

- 設計判断のメモ

### Confusions

- 詰まったポイント、確認したい点

<env-stamp>host:abs-workdir@short-sha 形式で書く。例: mac-studio:/Users/hermes/ghq/github.com/MH4GF/claude-code@7cf89d5

  • ホスト名を hostname -s から取得
  • ワーキングディレクトリ絶対パスを pwd から取得
  • 短い SHA を git rev-parse --short HEAD から取得

Tracker 別操作

kind: linear

操作 手段
issue ID 解決 Linear MCP の issue 取得ツールを identifier で呼び id (UUID) を得る。以降の呼び出しはこの UUID を使う
自分の識別 Linear MCP の自身ユーザー取得ツールで得たアカウントと、コメントの user を突き合わせる
コメント一覧 Linear MCP のコメント一覧取得ツールを issue ID 指定で呼ぶ。resolvedAtnull のものだけ再利用対象
更新 Linear MCP のコメント保存ツールを id 指定で呼び本文を上書きする
新規作成 Linear MCP のコメント保存ツールを issue 指定で呼ぶ

kind: github

identifier #123123 が issue number。<repo>WORKFLOW.mdtracker.repo (owner/name)。

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.

workpad is a skill published in the GitHub repository MH4GF/claude-code (2 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 105 tokens to every session and 1,614 once invoked, about $0.0005 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 2026-08-31.
