At a glance

Scores a bug, issue or task from severity, impact and likelihood on a 0-30 scale and maps the total to a P0 to P4 priority category with a suggested action.

  • Works in 5 steps: Receive Issue Attributes → Load Scoring Matrix → Calculate Total Score → …
  • Ranking a backlog of bugs by severity and likelihood
  • SKILL.md covers When to Use, Instructions, Error Handling and Examples, plus 2 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

The skill takes three inputs: severity (critical, high, medium or low), impact (breaking, major, minor or none) and likelihood (certain, likely, possible or unlikely). Points come from a scoring matrix: severity gives 10, 7, 5 or 2, impact gives 10, 7, 3 or 0, and likelihood gives 10, 7, 5 or 2. The total is their sum, from 0 to 30.

The total maps to a category. P0 covers 25 to 30 and means fix immediately, P1 covers 19 to 24 and belongs in the current sprint, P2 covers 12 to 18 and goes to the next sprint, P3 covers 5 to 11 and can wait until convenient, and P4 covers 0 to 4 and may not be worth fixing. The result is a structured JSON assessment with the score and category, and invalid or missing factors produce an error that lists the valid values. The scoring-matrix.json file holds the matrix.

When your agent uses it

  • Ranking a backlog of bugs by severity and likelihood
  • Assessing the risk of a security vulnerability
  • Deciding task order or how to allocate limited resources

Example prompts

  • “Score this bug as severity high, impact major, likelihood likely, and give me its priority category.”
  • “Prioritize these three open issues and tell me which one becomes P0.”
  • “A critical, breaking, certain bug just came in. What priority is it and what action is recommended?”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Receive Issue Attributes
  2. Load Scoring Matrix
  3. Calculate Total Score
  4. Determine Priority Category
  5. Return Scored Result

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8c3b576. 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 json).

    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

Priority Score Calculator loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 278 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

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 278 words (~1,035 tokens).

“Calculate numeric priority score and category for issues based on multiple factors.”
