p4-plan-search-queries

p4-plan-search-queries is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from perforce/p4plan-mcp. It costs 48 tokens per session (3,121 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to P4 Plan's advanced search language, which lets you combine conditions for names, types, statuses, people, priorities, dates, severity, and custom fields.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build precise queries for tasks and bugs, including searches by status, assignee, priority, severity, date, custom field, or combinations of these.
Why use it?
It helps avoid failed or inaccurate searches caused by incorrect field names, capitalization, or value formats.

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

p4-plan-search-queries 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 5d 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 — 285 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

P4 Plan Find Query Syntax

The search_tasks tool accepts a findQuery parameter for searching using P4 Plan's query language. Use it to filter by status, assignee, priority, dates, or any combination. For simple name search use Itemname:Text("text").

⚠️ Column names must be spelled exactly as shown below. There is no priority column — use Productbacklogpriority, Sprintpriority, or Bugpriority. There is no itemType — use Itemtype. No spaces in column names, exact casing. Values use human-readable strings like "Very high priority", NOT enum values like "veryHigh".

Common Mistakes

❌ Wrong ✅ Correct
itemType="Bug" Itemtype="Bug"
priority="veryHigh" Productbacklogpriority="Very high priority"
Bugpriority="veryHigh" Bugpriority="Very high priority"
type="Bug" Itemtype="Bug"
assignedTo:Resource("john") Assignedto:Resource("john")
itemName:Text("login") Itemname:Text("login")
status = "notDone" (spaces around =) Status="Not done" (no spaces around =)
Status="notDone" Status="Not done" (use human-readable text)
Severity="high" Severity="A" (A/B/C/D letter codes)
Severity="Critical" Severity="A" (use letter codes, not text names)

Operators

Operator Meaning Example
AND or + Both conditions true Status="Not done" AND Severity="A"
OR Either condition true Status="Not done" OR Status="In progress"
NOT or ! Negate condition NOT Status="Completed"
- First true, second not Status="Not done" - Workremaining>5
() Group conditions (Severity="A" OR Severity="B") AND Status="Not done"

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.
