What it does
Task Planning is an agent skill from dxos/dxos. Use when work spans multiple steps, phases, or sessions, when resuming a task started earlier, when the user asks for a plan/roadmap/progress tracking, or when they use the /dxos:project command (any verb — list, tasks, new, end, track, hydrate, resume). Covers the project registry, maintaining a durable TASKS.md + DESIGN.md per work-stream, and checkpointing/reloading project state across sessions and PRs.
Its SKILL.md is about 2.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `TASKS.md`).
It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Planning and Design tokens. The repository describes itself as: TypeScript implementation of the DXOS protocols, SDK, toolchain and Composer.
When your agent uses it
- Work spans multiple steps
- Resuming a task started earlier
- The user asks for a plan/roadmap/progress tracking
- They use the /dxos:project command (any verb — list
Example prompts
- “/task-planning”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- At task start — read the existing TASKS.md (if any) to reload state;
- As you work — check off - [x] in the same change that completes the
- When parking a task — leave a one-line status note on the item (what's
- Before claiming done — reconcile TASKS.md against reality: every checked
- Commit it — TASKS.md is committed alongside the work it tracks. Do not
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit f0fc12a. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
git
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
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 Planning loads about 2.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 107 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,189 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,189 words (~2,459 tokens).
“TASKS.md at the root of the unit of work you are actively in — usually a package, or the directory you're working in when there is no package (e.g. a skill, a hook, a script) — is the durable, committed…”
