tasks is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from TonyCasey/lisa. It costs 36 tokens per session (406 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A task-management helper that creates, loads, and summarizes shared tasks through Graphiti, a system for storing connected project information.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to list tasks, add tasks with statuses or tags, view task progress, and work with a project-specific task group.
Why use it?
It keeps tasks available to different coding agents and can use a local cache when the main storage service is unavailable.

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

tasks 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.

What it actually says

Purpose

Model-neutral helper to add/list tasks in Graphiti MCP so any agent can keep a shared task board.

Triggers

Use when the user says: "add a task", "list tasks", "load tasks", "task status".

How to use

  1. List: lisa tasks list --cache [--group <id>] [--limit 20] [--all|--since today]
  2. Add: lisa tasks add "<task text>" [--status todo|doing|done] [--tag foo] [--group <id>] --cache
  3. Defaults: reads ${GRAPHITI_ENDPOINT} from .lisa/.env (written by init); group ID is automatically derived from the project folder path. List defaults to --since today unless --all or --since is provided.
  4. Cache fallback: writes/reads cache/tasks.log when --cache is passed, returning last cached result on MCP failure.
  5. Keep prompts model-neutral; models only orchestrate CLI commands and summarize JSON output.

I/O contract (examples)

  • List: { status: "ok", action: "list", tasks: [...] }
  • Add: { status: "ok", action: "add", task: { text, status, group } }
  • Fallback: { status: "fallback", error, fallback: <cached object> }

Cross-model checklist

  • Claude: concise instructions; avoid role tokens; keep outputs small.
  • Gemini: explicit commands and minimal formatting.

Notes

  • All commands use the lisa CLI binary — no scripts to run directly.
  • Tasks are stored via Graphiti MCP add_task/list_tasks.

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.
