  • Asks about their tasks

What it does

Task Management is an agent skill from Bevel-Software/Hexis. Simple task management using a shared TASKS.md file. Reference this when the user asks about their tasks, wants to add/complete tasks, or needs help tracking commitments.

Its SKILL.md is about 610 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 Productivity & Automation, covering Task management. The repository describes itself as: Centrally manage AI-agent skills, tools, context, permissions, and identity across your entire org. Self-hosted, Git-backed and MCP-native. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Asks about their tasks
  • Wants to add/complete tasks
  • Needs help tracking commitments

Example prompts

  • “/task-management”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 63cb327. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).

    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

Task Management loads about 607 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 47 tokens; SKILL.md has 315 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~47
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~607

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.

Task Management

Tasks are tracked in a simple TASKS.md file that both you and the user can edit.

File Location

Always use TASKS.md in the current working directory.

  • If it exists, read/write to it
  • If it doesn't exist, create it with the template below

First Run

On first interaction with tasks, if TASKS.md does not exist yet, create it and tell the user: "I've started your task list in TASKS.md. Ask for productivity-start to set up workplace memory too."

TASKS.md is personal: it stays in the agent's working directory, not in the shared knowledge base. Shared work (a team's project plan, a process) belongs in the knowledge base or the team's project tracker instead.

Format & Template

When creating a new TASKS.md, use this exact template (without example tasks):

markdown
# Tasks

## Active

## Waiting On

## Someday

## Done

Task format:

  • - [ ] **Task title** - context, for whom, due date
  • Sub-bullets for additional details
  • Completed: - [x] ~~Task~~ (date)

How to Interact

When user asks "what's on my plate" / "my tasks":

  • Read TASKS.md
  • Summarize Active and Waiting On sections
  • Highlight anything overdue or urgent

When user says "add a task" / "remind me to":

  • Add to Active section with - [ ] **Task** format
  • Include context if provided (who it's for, due date)

When user says "done with X" / "finished X":

  • Find the task
  • Change [ ] to [x]
  • Add strikethrough: ~~task~~
  • Add completion date
  • Move to Done section

When user asks "what am I waiting on":

  • Read the Waiting On section
  • Note how long each item has been waiting

Conventions

  • Bold the task title for scannability
  • Include "for [person]" when it's a commitment to someone
  • Include "due [date]" for deadlines
  • Include "since [date]" for waiting items
  • Sub-bullets for additional context
  • Keep Done section for ~1 week, then clear old items

Extracting Tasks

When summarizing meetings or conversations, offer to add extracted tasks:

  • Commitments the user made ("I'll send that over")
  • Action items assigned to them
  • Follow-ups mentioned

Ask before adding - don't auto-add without confirmation.
