What it does

Commandkit Tasks is an agent skill from neplexlabs/commandkit. Implement scheduled and dynamic jobs with @commandkit/tasks. Use for static task definitions, dynamic task creation, driver setup, and resilient job execution patterns.

Its SKILL.md is about 500 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 9 other files, including reference files (for example `README.md`, `references/00-filesystem-structure.md` and `references/01-plugin-and-driver-setup.md`).

The repository describes itself as: The discord.js meta-framework with features such as AI-powered command handler, analytics, feature flags, and more. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Static task definitions
  • Dynamic task creation
  • Resilient job execution patterns

Example prompts

  • “/commandkit-tasks”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

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

  1. Register tasks plugin.
  2. Configure and initialize driver.
  3. Add static tasks and optional dynamic creation APIs.
  4. Add idempotency, error handling, and cancellation support.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d771e6b. 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

    Ships script files (JavaScript), which the agent can run.

    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

Commandkit Tasks loads about 495 tokens when it runs, and up to ~2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 125 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
~495
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~2k

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.

CommandKit Tasks Plugin

Activation guidance

Use for recurring jobs, delayed reminders, and background processing flows.

Required filesystem expectations

  • plugin registration in commandkit.config.ts
  • static tasks in src/app/tasks/**
  • driver bootstrap module (for example src/bootstrap/tasks.ts)

Execution workflow

  1. Register tasks plugin.
  2. Configure and initialize driver.
  3. Add static tasks and optional dynamic creation APIs.
  4. Add idempotency, error handling, and cancellation support.

Guardrails

  • Keep tasks idempotent where retries are possible.
  • Validate dynamic task payload and schedule inputs.
