What it does

Tasker XML is an agent skill from mikeyobrien/rho. Create Tasker profiles and tasks via XML for Android automation. Use when adding new Tasker functionality, creating Intent Received handlers, or building automation that integrates with the rho.tasker extension.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.1k 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 Mobile. It works with Android. The repository describes itself as: An AI agent that stays running, remembers across sessions, and checks in on its own. macOS, Linux, Android. Built on Pi. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

Adding new Tasker functionality
Creating Intent Received handlers
Building automation that integrates with the rho.tasker extension

Example prompts

“/tasker-xml”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

Open Tasker app
For profiles: Long press PROFILES tab → Import Profile
For tasks: Long press TASKS tab → Import Task
Navigate to Download folder, select the XML file

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 073a3ee. 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 xml).
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

Tasker XML loads about 3.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 419 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~56
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~3.1k

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.

Result File Format

The rho.tasker extension expects results in this format:

app_name
~~~
x1,y1,x2,y2,...
~~~
id1,id2,...
~~~
text1|||text2|||...
~~~
error_message_or_empty

Use %aiapp, %aicoords(), %aiid(), %aitext() from AutoInput.

Tips

Action numbering: Actions use sr="act0", sr="act1", etc. Sequential.
Profile/Task IDs: Use unique IDs (100+) to avoid conflicts with existing Tasker config.
Intent extras: Variables from intent extras are automatically available with same name (e.g., %app_name from intent extra app_name).
Test incrementally: Start with a Flash action to verify the profile triggers, then add complexity.
Debugging: Add Flash actions to show variable values during development.
