What is triage-capture?

A capture tool for recording an unplanned idea, bug, or to-do in an intake queue for later review.

It is for filing triage items, ideas, or research requests in an organisation-wide queue, where they can later be reviewed and routed.

It prevents useful thoughts from being lost when they are not yet clear enough to become a planned task.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00123	$0.00802
Opus 5	$0.00062	$0.00401
Sonnet 5	$0.00025	$0.00160
Haiku 4.5	$0.00012	$0.00080

Security

Grade A, and why

triage-capture 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.

Triage capture

Overview

The formal path (brainstorm → spec → epic → tasks) is the preferred on-ramp, but most work arrives uncurated — a dog-walk epiphany, a "we should probably…", an "oh, don't forget". This skill is the lossless net: it turns that raw input into an intake issue with near-zero friction, so nothing is dropped. The issue sits in the org .github intake queue until triage-review routes it into the epic/task model.

When to use

Fire whenever the human wants to record something without stopping to plan it: "don't forget to…", "capture this idea", "note a todo", "file an issue for…", "remind me to…", or a stream-of-consciousness riff on an idea to revisit.

Workflow

Pick the kind. All intake is filed in the org .github (one org-wide queue — no per-repo choice); choose the --kind:
- triage — a problem, bug, or to-do not yet understood; needs diagnosis.
- idea — a spark or "what if we…"; a seed to expand into a feature/epic.
- research — an investigation meant to produce a reproducible result.
- When unsure, use triage.
Paraphrase. If the input was voice-to-text (run-on, casual, transcription glitches), rewrite the substance into clean prose for the title and body — never paste the raw transcript into a durable issue.
Write the body to a temp file (no heredocs) — a one-line problem statement and any context the human gave. Add a ## Why line if the intent isn't obvious from the title.
Create the issue:
```
vrg-triage-create --kind <triage|idea|research> \
  --title "<concise, specific title>" \
  --body-file <tmpfile>
```
vrg-triage-create applies the --kind label, files the issue in the org .github by default, and leaves it unlinked (no parent epic) — triage-review routes it into the epic/task model later. Extra labels are optional via --label.
Report the new issue URL and stop. Do not plan, scope, or start work — that is what triage-review and the formal path are for.
