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

obsidian-task-orchestration 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 10d 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.

Obsidian Task Orchestration

Drive multi-agent task workflows through an Obsidian vault. Tasks are markdown notes with structured YAML frontmatter. The vault is the single source of truth — no external database, no API. Agents read, claim, update, and complete tasks through MCP tools.

This skill covers three roles: Worker (claim and execute tasks), Manager (create projects, monitor progress, handle failures), and Assistant (vault queries, daily notes, organization). All roles share a context-first discipline: start every session by calling get_context.

Start Every Session Here

get_context()

This returns a structured briefing: active projects, in-progress work, pending tasks, blockers, failures, recent decisions, recent discoveries, and pinned context notes. Read it before doing anything else. If you're focused on a specific project:

get_context(project_id: "proj-2026-03-09-xyz789")

list_tasks Query tasks by filters status, priority, type, assignee, project, exclude_projects
claim_task Atomically claim a pending task task_id, assignee
update_task Update status, append to agent log task_id, status, log_entry
complete_task Mark done with deliverables task_id, deliverables, summary, status (completed/failed)
create_project Create project with sub-tasks title, description, tasks[] with depends_on_indices
get_project_status Rollup progress and blockers project_id

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.
