simple-task-management

A skill for turning specification documents, such as PRDs or technical designs, into organized task lists. It groups tasks under named missions and defines dependencies and acceptance criteria.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to break down product requirements, technical specifications, or design documents into independent, testable implementation tasks.
Why use it?
It turns broad requirements into smaller pieces of work that are easier to assign, track, and verify.

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

simple-task-management 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 2d 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.

Simple Task Management

Transform specification documents (PRDs, Technical Specifications, Design Documents) into structured task lists organized under named missions that can be executed systematically.

Core Workflow

1. Document Analysis

Parse the specification document to extract:

  • Explicit requirements: Stated features, functionality, acceptance criteria
  • Implicit requirements: Technical considerations, infrastructure needs, error handling
  • Constraints: Technology choices, performance requirements, compatibility needs
  • Scope boundaries: What is and isn't included in the specification

Read the source document thoroughly. Identify section headings, numbered requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, and technical specifications. Note any cross-references between sections.

2. Task Decomposition

Break requirements into atomic tasks with these characteristics:

Characteristic Description
Single responsibility Each task addresses one specific piece of functionality
Independence Tasks can be worked on without coordination where possible
Clear boundaries Well-defined start and end conditions
Testable Verifiable completion criteria exist

Decomposition process:

  1. Identify each distinct requirement in the specification
  2. Determine if the requirement is atomic or needs splitting
  3. Create task entries with unique IDs (TASK-001, TASK-002, etc.)
  4. Ensure each task maps to specific specification sections

3. Dependency Mapping

Identify blocking dependencies between tasks:

  • Blocking dependencies: Task B cannot start until Task A completes

Populate the dependencies array with task IDs this task depends on. Calculate blocked_by (incomplete dependencies) and blocks (tasks depending on this one).

4. Priority Calculation

Score and prioritize tasks based on:

  1. Dependency depth: Tasks unblocking many others rank higher
  2. Complexity: Use T-shirt sizing (XS, S, M, L, XL)
  3. Risk level: Higher uncertainty = higher priority (do risky things early)
  4. Business value: When indicated in specification

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.

simple-task-management is a skill published in the GitHub repository sequenzia/claude-plugins (2 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 72 tokens to every session and 1,320 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-31.
