kb-tracker-workflow

kb-tracker-workflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from wlfghdr/agentic-kb. It costs 52 tokens per session (2,012 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide for managing knowledge-base records in a project tracker such as GitHub Issues. It explains which system should own decisions, tasks, feature requests, and roadmap items.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create or update tracker items, audit them, connect pull requests, and move file-based records into the tracker when needed.
Why use it?
It prevents duplicate or conflicting records and keeps operational status separate from longer-term notes and evidence.

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

kb-tracker-workflow 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 5d 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.

Skill: KB Tracker Workflow

This repo uses tracker-backed KB primitives and the generic GitHub governance profile. The tracker is the canonical operational home for the primitive families declared in .kb-config/layers.yaml under primitive-storage.

This skill is the local operating manual for issues, projects, labels, PRs, and tracker-backed KB artifacts. It keeps agents aligned with the repository's GitHub rules before CI has to reject a PR.

Source-of-Truth Boundaries

  • KB files own synthesis, evidence, reports, durable context, and file-backed primitives.
  • Tracker items own operational state for every primitive family configured as mode: tracker.
  • Hybrid primitives start in files and move to tracker ownership when they cross the configured sharing boundary.
  • Pull requests own proposed repository changes and must link the issue or tracker item that explains why the change exists.
  • Delivery systems outside GitHub may own execution state; link to them instead of copying their status into GitHub.

Never leave two active records pretending to own the same decision, task, feature, or roadmap item.

Required Preflight

Before creating or updating any tracker item:

  1. Read .kb-config/layers.yaml.
  2. Find the active layer.
  3. Read connections.trackers[] and primitive-storage.
  4. Identify whether the requested primitive is files, tracker, or hybrid.
  5. Search existing KB files and tracker items for duplicates when tools are available.
  6. Show the proposed mutation and wait for explicit confirmation.

Before changing repository files for non-trivial work:

  1. Identify the linked issue or explain the small exception.
  2. Check native issue type, project membership, milestone, assignee, and status when the repo config requires them.
  3. Check parent/sub-issue placement when workstream parents are configured.
  4. Confirm the PR will use a closing keyword when it completes the issue.
  5. Identify validation commands and governed-doc or changelog impact before editing.

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.
