agile-development

agile-development is a skill for Claude Code from serac-labs/serac. It costs 68 tokens per session (2,111 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide to ServiceNow Agile Development 2.0, a work-management module for teams, sprints, epics, stories, and scrum tasks. A sprint is a fixed period for completing work, and an epic is a larger piece of work split into stories.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to manage teams, team members, sprints, releases, epics, stories, points, assignments, and reports such as burndown, velocity, capacity, standups, and retrospectives.
Why use it?
It explains the module's specific records and accepted values, helping avoid confusing it with a general task tracker or ServiceNow's separate project-management module.

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

agile-development 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 1mo 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.

Agile Development 2.0

Sixteen tools on rm_* and pm_*. This is the plugin-provided Agile module (com.snc.sdlc.agile.2.0), not a generic task tracker — the tables are its own and the state values are numbers behind friendly labels.

Is the plugin even on?

Every table here comes from the plugin. If it is not activated, calls fail with "Invalid table", and the tools say so with the plugin id rather than passing the raw error through. Cheapest check — a read that needs no ids:

await snow_agile_sprint_query({ limit: 1 })   // touches rm_sprint

An instance without the plugin has none of this and no amount of retrying helps.

The model

rm_team          a scrum team, with a default velocity
  └── rm_team_member    one person on it, with a role
rm_sprint        a time box, optionally assigned to a team
rm_epic          a body of work spanning sprints
  └── rm_story        the unit of work. Points, state, assignee.
       └── rm_scrum_task   optional breakdown under a story
rm_release       groups sprints and epics for a ship date

Separately, pm_project / pm_project_task is PPM, a different product: waterfall-ish projects with a manager and dates. snow_create_project and snow_create_project_task write there. Do not mix them with the rm_* tables — a story is not a project task and nothing joins them.

Order of operations

Team → sprint → story. Every link is a reference lookup that fails if the target is not there yet.

// 1. team
const team = await snow_agile_team_manage({ action: "create", name: "Platform", velocity: 30 })
await snow_agile_team_manage({ action: "add_member", sys_id: team.sys_id,
                               member: "sam.patel", role: "scrum_master" })

// 2. sprint — the team is resolved by name or sys_id
await snow_agile_sprint_manage({ action: "create", name: "Sprint 24", team: "Platform",
                                 start_date: "2026-09-01", end_date: "2026-09-14", story_points: 30 })

// 3. stories, attached at creation or later
await snow_agile_story_manage({ action: "create", title: "Widen the assignment lookup",
                                story_points: 5, sprint: "Sprint 24", state: "Ready" })

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.
