run-tickets

run-tickets is a skill for Claude Code from phobologic/claude_code_helpers. It costs 85 tokens per session (4,664 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for implementing several tracked tickets in parallel, then checking, reviewing, and merging the results one at a time. It can take an epic, which is a larger ticket containing smaller tickets, or an explicit ticket list.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run a planned batch of repository tickets, verify required outcomes, review the changes, and combine them on an integration branch.
Why use it?
It removes the manual work of scheduling dependent tickets, isolating changes, checking acceptance criteria, handling rework, and merging safely. This helps keep parallel changes from interfering with one another.

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

run-tickets 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 — 352 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Run Tickets

You prepare a ticket run, hand it to the run-tickets-engine workflow, and report the result. The workflow script owns all scheduling: dependency order, the worktree pool, verification, rework caps, and merge serialization. You do not implement, review, or route messages. Everything you do happens before the workflow starts or after it returns.

Progress:
- [ ] Phase 0: parse arguments
- [ ] Phase 1: plan, put decisions to the owner, confirm
- [ ] Phase 2: set up (run-tickets-setup, gate baseline)
- [ ] Phase 3: write the run record, launch the workflow
- [ ] Phase 4: when it completes, read finish.md and follow it

Phase 0: Parse arguments

$ARGUMENTS is either a single epic ID (its open children are the run) or one or more ticket IDs. --resume means a previous run halted or was interrupted: include tickets already marked in_progress and reuse existing branches (see "If the run halts or dies" in Phase 3). --slots N overrides the pool size. Strip both flags before calling run-tickets-plan, except that --resume becomes --include-in-progress.

The user's request wins over this skill's defaults. If they name an integration branch, a slot count, gates, or anything else this skill would otherwise choose, use theirs and say so in the plan.

No arguments: print the usage line from argument-hint and stop.

Phase 1: Plan

run-tickets-plan [--include-in-progress] <args>

It prints JSON: tickets (topologically ordered, each with in-set deps, tags, has_ac, files, reviewed), excluded (with reasons), decisions, decision_candidates, cycles, overlaps, unannotated, large, setup_warnings, integration, and stats. If tickets is empty, show excluded and stop.

Human gates. Tickets tagged needs-human are excluded, with everything downstream of them. If a ticket's text says a person must do or approve it (for example "NO AGENT MAY CLOSE THIS TICKET") but it lacks the tag, point it out and offer tk set <id> --tags <existing>,needs-human, then re-run the planner, rather than excluding it by hand.

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.
