ledger-tasks-yylo

ledger-tasks-yylo is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mxyhi/ok-skills. It costs 57 tokens per session (771 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A task tracker that stores coding-project work inside the repository instead of only in a chat. It uses stable task IDs, dependencies, status evidence, and a list of tasks that are ready to start.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for creating or selecting work, marking tasks in progress or done, recording evidence, declaring blockers, and ordering parallel tasks.
Why use it?
It keeps task state reviewable and durable, so agents can sequence dependent work and record what changed and how it was tested.

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

ledger-tasks-yylo 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.

YYLO Ledger Task Management

Use this skill when a coding agent needs durable, reviewable task state that lives in the repository instead of a chat transcript. YYLO Ledger is the source of truth for task state; this skill teaches the working loop.

Adapted from the canonical ledger-tasks-yylo skill in yylo-dev/yylo-skills; see the upstream SKILL.md for the full CLI reference (archives, multi-directory merges, controller routing).

When to Use

  • Decide which task is safe to start next (ready = all blockers done)
  • Start assigned work and record an evidence receipt (mark in_progress --response)
  • Close a task with what changed and how it was tested (mark done --response --commit)
  • Declare dependencies between tasks before creating them
  • Sequence parallel work topologically (order --scores)

Workflow

  1. Pick work: yy ledger ready (or yy ledger list --status todo,in_progress).
  2. Inspect full state before any mutation: yy ledger get TASK_ID (includes resolved blocked_by and related tasks).
  3. Start: yy ledger mark in_progress --id TASK_ID --response "Starting: <plan>".
  4. Finish: yy ledger mark done --id TASK_ID --response "Done: <what> — tested <how>" --commit <sha>.
  5. If the task cannot proceed, keep the blocker explicit instead of closing it silently.

Core Commands

yy ledger create "Short, one-iteration task" --status backlog --tags feature,backend
yy ledger list --status todo,in_progress --limit 10
yy ledger search --tag backend --open
yy ledger get TASK_ID
yy ledger update TASK_ID --tags backend,urgent
yy ledger deps add --id TASK_ID --blocked-by BLOCKER1 BLOCKER2
yy ledger ready --tag backend
yy ledger order --scores
yy ledger archive TASK_ID        # soft delete, preserves data

Inline body markup is parsed on create/update, so dependencies can be declared in prose:

[blocked_by]TASK_ID[/blocked_by]     — this task waits on TASK_ID
[task_id]RELATED_ID[/task_id]        — cross-reference a related task

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.
