beads-workflow

beads-workflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from timequity/plugins. It costs 99 tokens per session (1,140 once invoked), scanned C, original, no licence file.

A workflow skill for projects that use beads, an issue tracker. It activates in a directory containing a .beads folder and guides starting work, choosing tasks, finishing work, and creating subtasks.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps inspect available tasks, choose the next task, mark work done, and create smaller follow-up tasks.
Why use it?
It keeps issue-tracker work aligned with the project instead of leaving task selection and completion undocumented.

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 C, and why

beads-workflow scanned grade C with 1 finding 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.

Hidden instructionshighPrompt injection

Directives inside HTML comments, invisible characters or bidirectional overrides are read by the model and not by the person reviewing the file.

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.
