cancel

cancel is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mrzhangguoguo/oh-my-workbuddy. It costs 27 tokens per session (640 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for stopping the current WorkBuddy operation, including background processes and spawned agents, and returning control to the user. It also cleans up the task list while preserving unfinished work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when you want to cancel, stop, or abort the current workflow and leave unfinished work recoverable.
Why use it?
It provides a controlled way to halt active work without leaving misleading in-progress tasks or losing useful progress.

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

cancel 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 1mo 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 — 64 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Ported from oh-my-codex cancel. OMX runtime conventions ($macro invocation, omx CLI, .omx/ state directory) are replaced with WorkBuddy idioms (Skill tool, Agent tool, task list, .workbuddy/memory).

Cancel

The standard, safe way to stop whatever is currently running and exit cleanly.

WorkBuddy has no persistent "mode" state like OMX's .omx/state/*.json, so there is nothing to terminalize across sessions — but in-progress work within the current session can still be stopped. Use this skill whenever the user says "cancel", "stop", "abort", or asks to halt the current flow.

What It Does

  1. Stop background work. If any background shell command (started with run_in_background) is running, stop it with the TaskStop tool (or send its task_id).
  2. Stop spawned agents. If any Agent tool calls are still in flight, let them finish their current message or stop them; do not start new ones.
  3. Clear the task list. Mark every in_progress task as completed only if it is genuinely done; otherwise set it back to pending so it is not silently lost, or delete it. Do not leave phantom in_progress items.
  4. Preserve recoverable progress. Anything worth keeping (files written, decisions made) should already be on disk or in .workbuddy/memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md. Do not delete user files.
  5. Report and yield. Tell the user what was stopped and what (if anything) remains, then stop. Do not auto-continue into another workflow.

Usage

/cancel

Or say: "cancel", "stop", "abort".

Force / Full Reset

WorkBuddy sessions are stateless between turns, so a simple "stop" already resets the flow. Use --force / --all semantics only to also:

  • Clear all in-progress and pending tasks from the task list (not just the current one).
  • Remove any .workbuddy/memory scratch notes you created for this run if the user wants a clean slate.

Example:

/cancel --force

Notes

  • Safe by default: only the current session's in-flight work is affected; never touch unrelated files, other sessions, or global config.
  • Resume-friendly: written files and memory entries survive a cancel, so the user can pick up later without re-doing completed work.
  • No destructive deletion: cancelling never deletes the user's source, git history, or installed skills.

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.
