task-creation

task-creation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from xobotyi/cc-foundry. It costs 50 tokens per session (3,227 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill for writing and reviewing work items in an issue tracker, with a defined reader, verified claims, a change location, and acceptance criteria.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps create actionable issues for human developers or coding agents and review whether their contents are supported by the system.
Why use it?
It prevents tickets from being too vague to implement or from asserting details that were never checked.

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

task-creation 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 yesterday.

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

A work item has one reader, and the two possible readers pay opposite costs. A human implementer picks the item up later and pays for volume: unstructured and over-long prose is what developers name among the problems that most delay a fix. An autonomous agent is handed the item directly and pays for absence: a large share of real issues are underspecified for one, and naming the files a change touches is the single largest measured lift in its success rate. The opposite costs — over-specification to an agent, under-specification to a human — are not established, so no rule here trades on them. Establish which reader the item is for, and let that decide what goes in.

Write only what was run or read. Completing a missing section trades absence for error: the item stops failing for what it omits and starts failing for what it asserts, and a machine writer buys structural completeness while reproducibility barely moves. Completeness is not accuracy. Plausibility survives a style checklist, so the check is verification against the system — run the path, read the code, capture the output — and whatever could not be verified is marked as such inside the item.

A filed item cannot answer a question. Interrogating a human recovers most of what underspecification costs, and a model cannot reliably tell an underspecified task from a complete one. Two consequences hold together: everything the implementer needs is front-loaded, because the queue has nobody to ask, and the writer cannot trust its own judgement that the item is complete, which is what the approval gate is for.

Establish the reader before drafting

  • The human implementer is the default reader. Write for a person picking the item up later, including when the assignment is unknown.
  • Select the agent reader only on a signal that the work goes to an agent — an explicit assignment to a coding agent, an AFK classification in a task breakdown, or a queue an agent drains. Absent one of those, the reader is the human implementer. The AFK and HITL classification itself belongs to tasks.
  • The readers differ on volume, never on truth. Nothing in the reader decision licenses an unverified claim for either one.

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.

task-creation is a skill published in the GitHub repository xobotyi/cc-foundry (20 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 50 tokens to every session and 3,227 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-04.
