Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned arjenschwarz/agentic-coding at 3a876e8068.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

The next-task skill allows an AI agent to manage and prioritize a sequence of tasks. It helps break down larger goals into smaller, actionable steps and ensures that each task is completed before moving on to the next. This promotes efficient workflow and prevents agents from becoming overwhelmed by complex projects.

When to use it

  • Project Decomposition: When an AI agent needs to complete a project with multiple sub-tasks (e.g., building a website, writing a report).
  • Sequential Processes: For tasks that must be completed in a specific order (e.g., data cleaning followed by analysis, then visualization).
  • Workflow Automation: To automate a series of steps within a larger process, ensuring each step is executed correctly and in the right sequence.
  • Complex Goal Achievement: When an agent needs to achieve a complex goal that requires multiple intermediate actions.

Key capabilities

  • Task Sequencing
  • Prioritization
  • Workflow Management
  • Step-by-step execution

Example prompts

  • "Create a task list for building a simple blog."
  • "What's the next task I should focus on?"
  • "Mark 'design homepage' as complete and proceed to the next step."

Tips & gotchas

The skill requires clear definition of tasks upfront. Ambiguous or poorly defined tasks can lead to unexpected behavior or errors in execution.
