mcp-cli: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/board-overview/SKILL.md

board-overview is a skill for Claude Code from theshadow27/mcp-cli. It costs 44 tokens per session (770 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A process for reviewing open GitHub issues, grouping related work into themes, and writing a sprint file. A sprint is a short, focused period of planned development work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to decide what to work on next, assess the health of an issue board, and prepare context for an orchestrated sprint.
Why use it?
It turns a long issue list into a clearer view of priorities, dependencies, stalled work, and related tasks.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/.

This is theshadow27/mcp-cli's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on mcp-cli itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything mcp-cli configures →

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

board-overview 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 6d 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 — 101 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Board Overview

Analyze the open issue board, identify themes and arcs, and write a sprint file the orchestrator can use for strategic planning.

Step 1: Read the Board

Fetch all open issues:

gh issue list --state open --json number,title,labels,body --limit 200

Also fetch recently closed issues (last 2 weeks) for completed-arc detection:

gh issue list --state closed --json number,title,labels,closedAt --limit 50

Step 2: Identify Arcs

Group issues into thematic arcs based on:

  • Feature area: which package or subsystem they touch (daemon, CLI, control, core, auth, config, testing, docs, orchestration/skills)
  • Dependency chains: issues that must be done in sequence (look for "Related", "Depends on", "Blocks" in bodies)
  • Natural work sequences: issues that share context and are more efficient to do together

An arc is a cluster of 2+ related issues. Standalone issues that don't fit an arc go under "Ungrouped".

Step 3: Assess Each Arc

For each arc, determine:

  • Status: active (has open issues), completed (all issues closed recently), stalled (open issues but no recent activity)
  • Ready issues: which issues in the arc can be picked up now (no unresolved dependencies, no needs-clarification label)
  • Blocked issues: which are waiting on other issues or human input
  • Suggested ordering: dependency-respecting sequence for implementation

Step 4: Write the Sprint File

Write or update .claude/arcs.md with the following structure:

# Board Overview

> Auto-generated by /board-overview on YYYY-MM-DD. Do not edit manually.

## Active Arcs

### Arc Name
_N open issues, M ready_

| # | Title | Status | Dependencies |
|---|-------|--------|--------------|
| 123 | Issue title | ready | — |
| 124 | Another issue | blocked | #123 |

### Another Arc

## Ungrouped Issues

| # | Title | Labels |
|---|-------|--------|

## Recently Completed Arcs

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.
