Example prompts

  • “/spk-mission-tasks”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Use /spec-kitty.tasks for the default path.
  2. Use /spec-kitty.tasks-outline, /spec-kitty.tasks-packages, and
  3. Keep package boundaries reviewable: each WP should have a clear scope,
  4. If WPs are too broad for implementation/review lanes, split before runtime

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e533131. 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

    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

Spk Mission Tasks loads about 200 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 32 tokens; SKILL.md has 81 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~32
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~200

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.

Use this skill when converting a plan into executable tasks or work packages.

Flow

  1. Use /spec-kitty.tasks for the default path.
  2. Use /spec-kitty.tasks-outline, /spec-kitty.tasks-packages, and /spec-kitty.tasks-finalize when staged work-package authoring is enabled.
  3. Keep package boundaries reviewable: each WP should have a clear scope, dependencies, verification, and expected files or systems.
  4. If WPs are too broad for implementation/review lanes, split before runtime execution begins.

Reviewability Standard

A reviewer should be able to approve or reject each WP independently.
