ultrawork

ultrawork is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zereight/gitlab-mcp. It costs 35 tokens per session (319 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for running independent tasks at the same time with multiple AI agents. It includes guidance for splitting work, choosing models, and checking the combined result.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for parallel code changes, research or analysis tasks, and other work that can be divided into independent parts, followed by builds, tests, or other verification.
Why use it?
It reduces waiting when a request contains separate tasks that do not depend on one another. It also helps avoid parallelizing steps that must happen in order.

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

ultrawork 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 4d 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

Ultrawork

Parallel execution engine that runs multiple agents simultaneously for independent tasks. Component mode -- provides parallelism and smart model routing but not persistence or verification loops.

When to Use

  • Multiple independent tasks can run simultaneously
  • Need to delegate work to multiple agents at once

When NOT to Use

  • Need guaranteed completion with verification → use /ralph (includes ultrawork)
  • Full autonomous pipeline → use /omg-autopilot (includes ralph which includes ultrawork)
  • Only one sequential task → delegate directly to @executor

Relationship

ralph (persistence wrapper)
 └── includes: ultrawork (this skill)

omg-autopilot (autonomous execution)
 └── includes: ralph
     └── includes: ultrawork (this skill)

Steps

  1. Classify tasks by independence: parallel vs dependent
  2. Fire independent tasks simultaneously via @executor
  3. Run dependent tasks sequentially after prerequisites
  4. Background long operations (builds, installs, tests)
  5. Verify when all tasks complete (build passes, tests pass)

Execution Policy

  • Fire ALL independent tasks simultaneously
  • Run builds/tests in background
  • Match task complexity to appropriate model routing

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.
