multitask-plan

A command that divides a development request into a plan for Codex workers without starting those workers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create a worker plan from a written request or plan file and set the maximum number of workers.
Why use it?
It lets you inspect and adjust the proposed work split before any parallel tasks begin.

Made for: Claude Code, Codex.

Per session 17 Skills are progressive disclosure: only the name and description are preloaded; the body loads when the skill is used.
When invoked 164 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

multitask-plan 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 2d 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.

What it actually says

Multitask Plan

Run the companion command directly. Do not inspect plugin source, scripts, or docs before running unless the user explicitly asks to debug the plugin.

Keep narration minimal: return the planned workers only. --workers means "up to this many workers", not exactly this many workers.

Run the splitter only and print the worker plan without spawning workers.

Examples:

node plugins/multitask/scripts/multitask-companion.mjs plan --workers 4 "Split the auth refactor into independent workers."
node plugins/multitask/scripts/multitask-companion.mjs plan --plan-file plan.md --workers 5 "Execute this plan."
Changes

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.

multitask-plan is a skill published in the GitHub repository nikuscs/codex-multitask (4 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 164 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
