hud is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mrzhangguoguo/oh-my-workbuddy. It costs 55 tokens per session (663 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to checking the live status of long-running or multi-step work using WorkBuddy’s task list and saved memory.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect task progress, review dependencies and notes, and track work that continues across sessions.
Why use it?
It shows where work stands, what is blocked, and what has finished without needing a separate status program.

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

hud 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 11d 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 hud. OMX runtime conventions ($macro invocation, omx CLI, .omx/ state directory) are replaced with WorkBuddy idioms (Skill tool, Agent tool, task list, .workbuddy/memory).

HUD (progress inspection)

In OMX, the HUD was a TUI statusline plus an omx hud CLI that read .omx/state/* files. WorkBuddy has a built-in status display — there is no separate HUD to configure, and no .omx/ state to read. This skill is a short guide to inspecting progress using WorkBuddy-native surfaces.

How to inspect progress

1. Task list (primary, real-time)

The task list is the canonical "HUD" for any multi-step or autonomous work.

  • Use TaskList to see every tracked task with its status (pending / in_progress / completed / deleted) and owner.
  • Use TaskGet on a specific task id to see its full description, dependencies (blockedBy), and any notes.
  • Use TaskUpdate to flip a task to in_progress or completed as work advances.

This replaces OMX's "modes / turns / activity" HUD entirely — each workflow phase is a task row you can watch update live.

2. Memory (durable, cross-session)

For state that must survive across sessions or be summarized for the user, append to:

.workbuddy/memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md

Use this for: last completed milestone, current phase, open decisions, and handoff notes. It is the durable analogue of OMX's .omx/state/*.json.

3. Built-in status display

WorkBuddy's own UI already shows model, current directory, and session context. No configuration (no config.toml [tui] status_line, no .omx/hud-config.json) is needed or available.

Color / severity heuristic

When summarizing progress for the user, reuse a simple traffic-light convention:

  • Green — on track / healthy.
  • Yellow — caution (e.g. a task >70% through its budget, or a slow step).
  • Red — blocked / critical (a task is blocked, or a step failed).

What this skill does NOT do

  • It does not run any omx hud command (no such command exists in WorkBuddy).
  • It does not read or write .omx/ state (that directory does not exist here).

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.

hud is a skill published in the GitHub repository mrzhangguoguo/oh-my-workbuddy (2 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 55 tokens to every session and 663 once invoked, about $0.0003 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.
