autopilot-project

autopilot-project is a skill for Claude Code from strzhao/autopilot. It costs 39 tokens per session (1,226 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A project mode for managing a task DAG, a graph that shows which tasks depend on other tasks. It provides context for the /autopilot status and /autopilot next commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for viewing autopilot project status and getting context for the next task.
Why use it?
It helps track project tasks and identify the next task when work has dependencies.

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

autopilot-project 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.

Autopilot Project — 多任务项目编排

管理 .autopilot/project/ 下的项目文件,为大型多任务目标提供 DAG 驱动的任务编排。

核心原则

  1. 原子性: 每个任务是独立的 autopilot 运行,有完整的 design → implement → qa → merge 闭环
  2. 信息隔离: 任务间通过 handoff 文件传递上下文,不共享会话状态
  3. 上下文预算 <10KB: L0 DAG 概览 + L1 任务简报 + L2 依赖 handoff + L3 架构摘要
  4. Handoff 链: 每个任务完成后写 ≤500 字 handoff,只有直接下游读取
  5. 失败隔离: 一个任务失败不影响无依赖关系的其他任务
  6. 自动编排 + 人工兜底: 高信心时自动链接下一任务;低信心或失败时释放循环等待用户
  7. AI Native: 任务粒度、DAG 结构、handoff 内容由 AI 运行时判断,不硬编码规则

Auto-Chain 机制

任务完成时(phase=done),如果 AI 在 merge 阶段评估为高信心,stop-hook 自动启动下一个就绪任务:

  • AI 通过设置 frontmatter next_task 字段信号高信心
  • stop-hook 读取该字段并创建新状态文件(auto_approve: true)
  • auto_approve 使下一个任务在高信心时跳过人工审批门(design 审批 + QA 审批);standard 单任务 design 步骤 4 AI 自治默认(例外征询时不设)也可设置(详见 autopilot SKILL.md 步骤 4)
  • 所有任务完成后自动触发全项目 QA(mode: "project-qa")

全项目 QA(mode: "project-qa")

stop-hook 检测到全部任务 status: done 后,创建 mode: "project-qa" 状态文件并从 phase: "qa" 开始。与单任务 QA 的差异:

  • 加载:.autopilot/project/design.md + dag.yaml + 状态文件 ## 任务完成摘要(全 handoff 汇总)
  • 变更范围:项目创建以来的全部 git diff(而非单任务 diff)
  • Tier 调整:Tier 0 跳过(无项目级红队测试);Tier 1 全量构建/测试/lint,重在验跨任务集成;Tier 1.5 从 design.md「跨任务设计约束 / Handoff 策略」提取集成场景(共享接口 / 数据流 / 命名一致性);Tier 2 对照 design.md 审整体架构符合性 + 全变更范围质量
  • 结果判定:全部 ✅ → phase: "done";有 ❌ → gate: "review-accept"(不进 auto-fix,项目级失败需人工判断修复范围与优先级)

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.

autopilot-project is a skill published in the GitHub repository strzhao/autopilot (32 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 39 tokens to every session and 1,226 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-30.
