At a glance

The Atlas engine — turn any goal into a validated PRD and an executable, verified task graph.

  • The user types /prd:atlas
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Says I want to build
  • Asks for a PRD / task-driven build

What it does

Atlas is an agent skill from anombyte93/prd-taskmaster. The Atlas engine — turn any goal into a validated PRD and an executable, verified task graph. Brand-name entrypoint; a thin alias for the go orchestrator. Use when the user types /prd:atlas, says "I want to build", or asks for a PRD / task-driven build.

Its SKILL.md is about 170 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Product & Project Management, covering PRD writing. The repository describes itself as: Zero-config goal-to-tasks engine for Claude Code (the Atlas engine). Graded PRD validation, dependency-ordered task graph, evidence-gated execution. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user types /prd:atlas
  • Says I want to build
  • Asks for a PRD / task-driven build

Example prompts

  • “I want to build”
  • “/atlas”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Skill

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3a9756a. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Skill

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Atlas loads about 173 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 50 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~65
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~173

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

atlas (entrypoint alias)

This is the brand-name entrypoint for the Atlas engine. It holds no procedure of its own — immediately invoke the go orchestrator via the Skill tool (/prd:go).

go reads pipeline state and dispatches to the correct phase (SETUP → DISCOVER → GENERATE → HANDOFF → EXECUTE). Do not duplicate that routing here.

Questions about Atlas

What does Atlas do?

The Atlas engine — turn any goal into a validated PRD and an executable, verified task graph. Atlas is an agent skill from anombyte93/prd-taskmaster. The Atlas engine — turn any goal into a validated PRD and an executable, verified task graph.

When should I use Atlas?

Atlas fits situations like: the user types /prd:atlas; says I want to build; asks for a PRD / task-driven build.

How do I install Atlas in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add anombyte93/prd-taskmaster --skill atlas -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/atlas in anombyte93/prd-taskmaster) into .claude/skills/atlas in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Atlas in Codex?

Run `npx skills add anombyte93/prd-taskmaster --skill atlas -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/atlas in anombyte93/prd-taskmaster) into .agents/skills/atlas in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

Can I use Atlas in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add anombyte93/prd-taskmaster --skill atlas -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/atlas, .gemini/skills/atlas, .github/skills/atlas and .opencode/skills/atlas in your project.

What does Atlas need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Atlas is instructions for the agent only. Its frontmatter pre-approves these tools: Skill.

Does Atlas access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Atlas safe to install?
