task-lessons

A lesson-management skill that reads and applies reusable preventive rules from tasks/lessons.md. It can also maintain those lessons when explicitly allowed to write them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when starting substantial work, resuming an interrupted task, changing an active request, or responding to a user correction.
Why use it?
It keeps known mistakes from being repeated and stores them in the right place instead of mixing them with task-specific notes or project rules.

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

task-lessons 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/lessons.js), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 139 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Prevent Repeated Mistakes

Use tasks/lessons.md as the canonical current set of reusable preventive controls. A Lesson is learned only when it changes future behavior: matching work recognizes its Trigger, follows its Rule, and satisfies its Check. Recording, displaying, or reading one is not completion.

Boundaries

Route information to its proper owner. Prefer eliminating the failure or enforcing prevention in source, schema, types, tests, lint, CI, or a mandatory workflow when that can work without Agent judgment. A Lesson is the last-mile behavioral control for the judgment that remains; never use one as a substitute for an enforceable invariant.

  • Reusable, judgment-dependent workspace prevention rules belong in tasks/lessons.md.
  • Task-specific decisions, progress, results, and evidence belong in the owning task record.
  • Stable workspace structure and relationships belong in tasks/context.md.
  • Cross-workspace preferences or persistent directives belong in the applicable global rule mechanism.
  • Procedures belong in an SOP or runbook.
  • Speculation, secrets, duplicates, and one-off details are not stored.

Routine lesson maintenance does not create a task record.

Admission Gate

Store or retain a Lesson only when every condition holds:

  1. Reusable: the correction prevents a class of mistakes beyond the current task.
  2. Preemptive: an Agent can recognize the Trigger before the failure recurs.
  3. Preventive: the Rule directly changes behavior and blocks the failure mechanism rather than patching one symptom.
  4. Verifiable: the Check can show that the preventive control covers the relevant scope.
  5. Last-mile: stronger mechanical enforcement does not fully remove the need for Agent judgment.
  6. Correctly routed: Lessons is the right carrier under the boundaries above.

If a stronger control fully removes the judgment, use or propose it through the appropriate owning task and choose No-op for Lessons. If judgment remains, record only the residual behavior.

What ships with it

4 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.

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.

task-lessons is a skill published in the GitHub repository SSBun/csl-agent-kit (10 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 90 tokens to every session and 1,908 once invoked, about $0.0005 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.
