What it does

Technical Change Tracker is an agent skill from sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills. Track code changes with structured JSON records, state machine enforcement, and AI session handoff for bot continuity

Its SKILL.md is about 560 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 Agent Workflows, covering Session handoff. The repository describes itself as: AAS Core is the local, agent-first control plane for complete catalog discovery, agent-owned selection, stack validation, and planning, backed by 2,400+ agentic skills. Includes… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Session handoff

Example prompts

  • “/technical-change-tracker”

Requirements

  • Python 3

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ec02547. 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.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • github.com

    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

Technical Change Tracker loads about 559 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 36 tokens; SKILL.md has 228 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~36
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~559

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.

Technical Change Tracker

Overview

Track every code change with structured JSON records and accessible HTML output. Ensures AI bot sessions can resume seamlessly when previous sessions expire or are abandoned.

When to Use This Skill

  • Use when you need structured change tracking across AI coding sessions
  • Use when a bot session expires mid-task and the next session needs full context to resume
  • Use when onboarding a project with undocumented change history

How It Works

State Machine
planned -> in_progress -> implemented -> tested -> deployed
             |
             +-> blocked
Commands

/tc init | /tc create | /tc update | /tc status | /tc resume | /tc close | /tc export | /tc dashboard | /tc retro

Session Handoff

Each TC stores: progress summary, next steps, blockers, key context, and files in progress — so the next bot session picks up exactly where the last left off.

Non-Blocking

TC bookkeeping runs via background subagents. Never interrupts coding work.

Features

  • Structured JSON records with append-only revision history
  • Test cases with log snippet evidence
  • WCAG AA+ accessible HTML output (dark theme, rem-based fonts)
  • CSS-only dashboard with status filters
  • Python stdlib only — zero external dependencies
  • Retroactive bulk creation from git history via /tc retro

Limitations

  • Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
  • Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
  • Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
