The sanctioned task-board mutator — add a queued task, start one (flips to in-progress and stamps the date, minting a dotted ID on pick-up), or mark an in-progress task done. The only blessed write to open-tasks.md.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# $ca-task — task-board writer The one blessed way to mutate `<project-root>/.codearbiter/open-tasks.md` (resolves D-1). Hand-editing the board is no longer the only path; this command keeps every entry schema-conformant and every transition dated. The board LOGIC lives in the pure `_taskboardlib` transforms; this command runs the thin writer `taskwrite.py` from the selected installed package. Before an authorized board mutation, read the installed helper card: [includes/helper-invocation.md](../../includes/helper-invocation.md) relative to this loaded skill. Set its loaded-resource input to the absolute path of this **loaded** command or skill, and select the literal relative helper `hooks/taskwrite.py`. Resolve and check that helper exactly once using the card, then run its interpreter-selection block for the current shell. Run from the intended project worktree so the writer targets that project's board. Do not switch to the plugin directory, use a root token from a hook environment in an ordinary tool call, or search source/cache copies. ## Verbs Always put `--` before user text (a desc or title) so a value beginning with `-` is not …

How to install
mdr add arbiterforge/codearbiter/ca-task@sha256:adb74c723791378dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261004.4a578c5, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
