Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00043 | $0.00535 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00017 | $0.00214 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00107 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00053 |
Grade A, and why
p4-plan-backlog-refinement 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 1mo 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 — 40 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Backlog refinement in P4 Plan
The Product Backlog is a dedicated section containing user stories and tasks not yet scheduled into sprints.
Key Concepts
- User Story: High-level feature/epic in the backlog. Can have children (sub-stories or tasks).
- Backlog Item (BacklogTask): Actionable work task. Leaf-level work.
- Backlog priority: Relative ordering. Values: veryHigh, high, medium, low, veryLow, none
- Points: Story point estimates (numeric).
- Estimated days: Day-based estimates (alternative to points).
Tool Mapping
| User Intent | Tool | Key Parameters |
|---|---|---|
| Find backlog items | search_tasks | findQuery, projectId |
| Create a backlog item | create_item | type: "backlog_task", projectId, name |
| Create a sub-task | create_item | type: "backlog_task", projectId, name, parentItemId |
| Insert after an item | create_item | type: "backlog_task", projectId, name, previousItemId |
| Set priority | update_item | itemId, priority |
| Estimate in points | update_item | itemId, points |
| Estimate in days | update_item | itemId, estimatedDays |
| Get full item details | get_tasks | taskIds |
| Add acceptance criteria | post_comment | taskId, text |
| Move item to sprint | commit_to_sprint | taskId, sprintId |
Committed Items
Items with a committedToProjectID are already committed to a sprint. Before modifying, moving, or breaking down committed items, always confirm with the user first. When creating sub-tasks under a committed parent (parentItemId), call get_tasks on the parent first — if it has committedToProjectID, ask the user whether the sub-items should be created in the sprint or in the backlog.
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.
