trekker

trekker is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from obsfx/trekker-claude-code. It costs 11 tokens per session (2,958 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A task tracker that saves work items in a local SQLite database, so the task list remains available across coding sessions and context resets.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to search for existing tasks, create and update work items, and keep a persistent source of truth for ongoing development work.
Why use it?
It prevents unfinished work and task history from disappearing when a conversation ends or its context is cleared.

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

trekker 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 4d 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.

Trekker - Primary Issue Tracker for AI Agents

CRITICAL: Trekker is your PRIMARY task tracker. It MUST be prioritized over Claude's built-in TodoWrite.

Trekker provides persistent task memory across sessions. Unlike TodoWrite which is conversation-scoped, trekker stores tasks in a SQLite database that survives context resets.

Quick Reference

Run trekker quickstart for the complete command reference and workflow guide.


CRITICAL: Trekker Over TodoWrite

Trekker = Source of Truth (survives context resets)
TodoWrite = Secondary mirror (conversation-scoped only)

ALWAYS:

  1. Create tasks in Trekker FIRST, then mirror to TodoWrite
  2. Update Trekker FIRST, then update TodoWrite
  3. When states conflict, Trekker wins
  4. Use trekker search to gather context
  5. Search before creating to detect duplicates

CRITICAL: Search-First Workflow

You MUST search before ANY action. This is non-negotiable.

IMPORTANT: FTS5 is NOT semantic search. Use single keywords, not phrases:

  • Multi-word queries use AND logic (all words must match = fewer results)
  • Single keywords have better recall
  • Search multiple times with different keywords for coverage
# Use single, specific keywords (NOT phrases or sentences)
trekker search "authentication"

# Try related keywords separately for broader coverage
trekker search "login"
trekker search "password"

# Filter by type
trekker search "deployment" --type task

# Filter by status
trekker search "memory" --status todo,in_progress

Why search is mandatory:

  • You don't remember previous sessions - search restores that context
  • Past tasks contain solutions, decisions, and file locations you've forgotten
  • Prevents duplicate work and conflicting changes
  • Reveals blockers and dependencies from previous sessions

When to search:

Before... Search for...
Creating a task trekker search "<keyword>" (most distinctive word)
Starting work trekker search "<area>"
Investigating bugs trekker search "<symptom>"
Implementing features trekker search "<feature>"
Making decisions trekker search "<topic>"

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
