continue is a skill for Claude Code from SienkLogic/plan-build-run. It costs 19 tokens per session (3,108 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An automation command that finds and performs the next logical step in a project workflow.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps resume planning, building, or verification work and stops when it reaches a checkpoint, error, or missing verification.
Why use it?
It reduces the need to inspect project status and decide manually what should happen next.

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

continue 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 248 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

STOP — DO NOT READ THIS FILE. You are already reading it. This prompt was injected into your context by Claude Code's plugin system. Using the Read tool on this SKILL.md file wastes ~7,600 tokens. Begin executing Step 1 immediately.

/pbr:continue — Action-Oriented Resumption

You are running the continue skill. Unlike /pbr:progress which shows the dashboard and suggests the next action, /pbr:continue determines and EXECUTES the next logical step automatically. Stops safely at milestones, checkpoints, errors, and verification gaps.

This skill runs inline and may delegate to other skills via Task().


Step 0 — Immediate Output

Before ANY tool calls, display this banner:

╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║  PLAN-BUILD-RUN ► NEXT STEP                                  ║
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

Then proceed to Step 1.

Context Budget

Reference: skills/shared/context-budget.md for the universal orchestrator rules.

Additionally for this skill:

  • Minimize state reads — read only STATE.md lines 1-20 to determine next action
  • Delegate execution to the appropriate skill via Skill() or Task()
  • At context >= 500k (context_window_tokens >= 500000): Read full ROADMAP.md (already required), glob phase frontmatters, read PROJECT.md out-of-scope section. Total additional reads: ~10-30 small frontmatter reads.
  • At context < 500k (context_window_tokens < 500000): No change — reads only STATE.md lines 1-20 as before.

Core Principle

Do, don't ask. Read STATE.md, determine the next action, and execute it. The user wants hands-off forward progress.


Flow

Step 1: Read State

Parse $ARGUMENTS:

  • If --auto is present in $ARGUMENTS: set auto_mode = true. Log: "Auto mode enabled — passing --auto to delegated skills"
Argument Meaning
--auto Pass --auto flag to all delegated skills, increase consecutive chain limit from 6 to 20

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.
