omh-ralph-task

omh-ralph-task is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from witt3rd/oh-my-hermes. It costs 23 tokens per session (3,526 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A task-execution skill for an orchestrated workflow, where one agent is assigned a narrowly defined coding task. It requires working only in the assigned files, committing the result, and reporting what happened.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to carry out one scoped implementation task, follow its acceptance checks, create the required commit, and return the expected completion report.
Why use it?
It prevents parallel coding tasks from overlapping or giving the coordinator unreliable status updates. It also makes the task's changes and verification easier to track.

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

omh-ralph-task 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/verify-redaction-marker.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 192 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

omh-ralph-task — executor discipline

You are seeing this skill because an omh-ralph dispatcher (orchestrator) handed you a task envelope. You are the executor, not the dispatcher. Your job is narrow:

  1. Do exactly the task the envelope specifies, no more.
  2. Stay inside the file scope the envelope declares.
  3. Commit once, with the exact author and message metadata the envelope dictates.
  4. Report back in the shape the orchestrator expects.

The dispatcher trusts your report. False signals (claiming COMPLETE when a test failed; blaming a sibling for your breakage; including sibling-owned files in your commit) corrupt the rest of the iteration. Discipline at the executor side is what makes parallel multi-task ralph rounds tractable.

The task envelope contract

The orchestrator gives you, at minimum:

  • Project root + branch (where to work, which branch to commit on)
  • Commit author (e.g. <being-name> <being-email> (orchestrator-specified))
  • Files this task owns (the only files you may stage)
  • DO NOT modify (sibling tasks own these — read-only for you)
  • Acceptance criteria (the bar the orchestrator will verify against)
  • TDD instruction (whether to write failing tests first)
  • Commit metadata (exact git add invocation and exact commit message body)
  • Output expected (the report shape)

If any of these are missing or contradictory, ask the orchestrator before writing — don't infer your way through a missing constraint.

Lifecycle

1. Orient

  • Read the envelope twice. Note files-you-own AND files-others-own.
  • Verify branch + HEAD match what the envelope says: git status && git log -1 --oneline.
  • Read the required-reading list. The envelope tells you what design context matters.
  • Read the files-others-own only if you need them for context — never modify.

2. TDD when instructed

The envelope often says: "Author failing tests FIRST. Run. Watch them fail with real assertion errors."

This is not optional when stated. Sequence:

  1. Write the test file (or extend an existing one).
  2. Run it: uv run pytest <path> -q.
  3. Confirm RED with real assertion errors (not collection errors, not import failures).
  4. THEN modify the implementation.
  5. Run the new tests. Confirm GREEN.
  6. Run the full suite. Confirm no regressions.

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.
