Open a task, go on with a task, switch tasks, raise the tier of a task. Use it first when the user wants files produced or changed (RCA, design, development plan, development, tests, knowledge base update); also when the user says "go on with task X", "switch to task X" or "this task has to change the repository now". Ask with numbered options until things are clear, then run harness task new, task open or task upgrade. To fork a task, use harness-task-fork. Keywords: my task, new task, open…

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

# My task

One task, one folder. The folder is `.workspace/sandbox/tasks/<task name>/`, and the `TASK.md` in it lets any new session go on with the work. This skill only asks until things are clear and runs the commands; the CLI makes the folder and the files.

## When to Use This Skill

- The user wants you to produce or change files, and this session has no task yet.
- The user wants to go on with an existing task, or to switch from one task to another. Pick the task up even when the user only asks "how far is that task": without that, this session is not under the task rules, and independent checks cannot be used.
- A task grew halfway: it was only Q&A or an RCA, and now it has to change a target repository.

Do not use it for plain Q&A that writes nothing.

## Prerequisites

- The session id: the rules at the top of every prompt have a line "Current session id". Use it as written for `--session-id`.
- Every command is `harness <command>`.

## Step-by-Step Workflows

### 1. See which tasks there are

Run `harness task list`. It costs the user no time, and the output has each task's name, kind, tier and what it waits for.

### 2. Ask the user, all at once
…

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add smars-bin-hu/copilot-agentic-harness/harness-my-task@sha256:4415ab9942ffcbd4

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261102.1137100, 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.
