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

todo 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 — 240 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.

Step 0 — Immediate Output

Before ANY tool calls, display this banner:

╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║  PLAN-BUILD-RUN ► TODO                                       ║
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

Then proceed to Step 1.

/pbr:todo — Persistent File-Based Todos

Why File-Based

Native Claude Code Tasks are session-scoped — they vanish when the conversation ends. Plan-Build-Run todos are individual .md files in .planning/todos/ that persist across sessions, context resets, and compactions.

Subcommands

Parse $ARGUMENTS to determine the subcommand:

add <description>

  1. Run the CLI to create the todo:

    pbr-tools todo add "{description}"
    

    This handles NNN generation, slug creation (via slug-generate internally), duplicate detection, and file creation. If the CLI fails, display a branded ERROR box and stop.

  2. Parse the CLI JSON output to extract the created file path, NNN, and slug for the confirmation display.

  3. CRITICAL -- DO NOT SKIP: Update STATE.md Pending Todos section

    If the Write fails, display:

    ╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
    ║  ERROR                                                       ║
    ╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
    
    Failed to write todo file.
    
    **To fix:** Check that `.planning/todos/pending/` exists and is writable.
    
  4. Confirm with branded output:

╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║  PLAN-BUILD-RUN ► TODO ADDED ✓                               ║
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

**Todo {NNN}:** {description}

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.

todo is a skill published in the GitHub repository SienkLogic/plan-build-run (19 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 16 tokens to every session and 1,790 once invoked, about $0.0001 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 2026-09-03.
