Getting it into your agent
This one installs as part of its plugin. Adding the marketplace and installing the plugin brings it with everything else the plugin ships.

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 | $0.00057 | $0.03708 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00023 | $0.01483 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00742 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00371 |
Grade A, and why
claude-code-tasks 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 2mo 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.

Claude Code Tasks Reference
This skill is a shared reference for Claude Code's 6 Task Management tools. Load it when your skill or agent needs to create, manage, or coordinate tasks.
The tools serve two distinct purposes:
- Structured tracking — TaskCreate, TaskGet, TaskList, TaskUpdate — for organizing work items, tracking progress, managing dependencies, and coordinating agents
- Background execution — TaskOutput, TaskStop — for monitoring and controlling background processes (shells, agents, remote sessions)
Both share the task ID namespace but serve different operational needs.
This reference covers:
- Complete tool parameter tables for all six Task tools
- Status lifecycle, transition rules, and completion rules
- Naming conventions (subject vs. activeForm)
- Dependency management with DAG design principles
- Metadata conventions for categorization and tracking
For deeper content, load the reference files listed at the end of this document.
TaskCreate
Creates a new task. Returns the created task object with a system-assigned id.
Use TaskCreate for complex multi-step tasks (3+ distinct steps), plan mode tracking, or when the user provides multiple tasks or requests a todo list. Skip it for single straightforward tasks or trivial work completable in under 3 steps.
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
subject |
string | Yes | Short imperative title for the task (e.g., "Create user schema"). Displayed in the task list UI. |
description |
string | Yes | Detailed description including context and acceptance criteria. Supports markdown. |
activeForm |
string | No | Present-continuous description shown while the task is in progress (e.g., "Creating user schema"). Displayed in the task list UI during execution. Falls back to subject if omitted. |
metadata |
object | No | Key-value pairs for categorization and tracking. Keys and values are strings. Common keys documented in the Metadata Conventions section below. |
What ships with it
2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

claude-code-tasks is a skill published in the GitHub repository sequenzia/agent-alchemy (45 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 57 tokens to every session and 3,708 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-30.
