prioritize

prioritize is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from OdinMB/ops-workflow. It costs 29 tokens per session (1,014 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A task-ranking guide that selects two or three operations tasks from active plans and backlogs for autonomous work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to produce an ordered shortlist of tasks; it does not carry out the tasks.
Why use it?
It helps decide what deserves attention first by comparing expected impact, feasibility, and project goals.

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

prioritize 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 3d 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 — 116 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Ops Prioritize

Given a project's active plans, backlog, and goals, select 2-3 tasks for immediate autonomous execution. The output is a ranked shortlist with execution order — this skill does NOT execute them.

Context Required

You need the full project overview loaded (MEMORY.md, state, backlog, active plans) plus any newly identified work items from find-tasks.

Selection Criteria

Score each candidate task on these dimensions:

Impact (weight: high)

How much does completing this task move the project toward its goals?

  • High: directly advances a primary goal, unblocks other work, or fills a critical knowledge gap
  • Medium: advances a secondary goal, improves project quality, or creates useful reference material
  • Low: nice-to-have, minor cleanup, or distant from current priorities

Feasibility (weight: high)

Can an autonomous agent complete this task without human input or real-world actions?

  • High: pure research, writing, analysis, or knowledge management — all inputs are available
  • Medium: mostly feasible, but may need assumptions about preferences or priorities
  • Low: requires external information the agent can't access, real-world actions, or significant subjective judgment

Tasks with low feasibility should be skipped — they'll end up in the follow-up file anyway.

Independence (weight: critical)

Can this task be completed without depending on or conflicting with other selected tasks?

  • Tasks that modify the same files are NOT independent
  • Tasks where one's output is the other's input are NOT independent
  • Tasks touching different backlog areas, state files, or reference topics are usually independent

Independence is a hard constraint, not a gradient. If two high-impact tasks conflict, pick the higher-impact one and find an independent alternative for the second slot.

Effort (weight: moderate)

Prefer a mix of effort levels. A good batch might be:

  • 1 medium task (the main contribution of this cycle)
  • 1-2 light tasks (quick wins that keep momentum)

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.

prioritize is a skill published in the GitHub repository OdinMB/ops-workflow (7 stars, last pushed 16d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 29 tokens to every session and 1,014 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.
