A task-selection skill for the RIPDPI project. It finds work that is ready, ranks it by priority, checks for blockers, and starts the selected task in an isolated work area.

Use it to select, claim, and prepare the next available portfolio task while recording ownership and shared-file constraints.

It prevents the agent from choosing blocked work or assuming that unfinished parent tasks automatically block their children.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00017	$0.00157
Opus 5.5	$0.00007	$0.00063
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00003	$0.00031
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00016

Security

Grade A, and why

mdtask-next 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 yesterday.

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.

What it actually says

Select the next task

Run ./taskctl ready --json and rank by critical, high, medium, then low priority.
Confirm the task has no unresolved portfolio blockers and review its exact execution file with ./taskctl show <task-id>.
Declare file/module ownership and serialized shared-file lanes before parallel work begins.
Run ./taskctl start <task-id> --owner <role> and ./taskctl generate-board.
Execute through the relevant mdtask or OpenSpec skill in a dedicated worktree.

Do not auto-select blocked work or infer that a parent epic blocks its child.

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.
