tracking-todos SKILL.md skillA
This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.
tracking-todos from oaustegard/claude-skills is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add oaustegard/claude-skills/tracking-todos@v0.1.0Pins v0.1.0 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Maintain a structured task list for the current session. Use proactively when a request requires 3+ distinct steps, the user provides multiple items, or complex work benefits from explicit progress tracking. Storage persists via Muninn config across container death. Adapted from Claude Code's TodoWrite tool.
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
# Tracking Todos
Maintain a structured, persistent task list while working through multi-step requests. Track progress explicitly, mark completion honestly, and make the plan visible to Oskar.
## When to Use
Use proactively when:
- Request requires 3+ distinct steps or actions
- User provides multiple tasks (numbered, comma-separated, or a list)
- Work spans multiple tool calls, file edits, or research phases
- Non-trivial planning would otherwise happen implicitly in your head
- User explicitly asks for a todo list
Skip when:
- Single, straightforward task
- Purely conversational or informational exchange
- Task completes in <3 trivial steps
- Quick fact lookup or recall
When in doubt, use it. Being explicit about multi-step plans makes failure modes visible.
## Schema
Each todo has exactly three string fields:
- `content` — imperative form ("Run tests", "Fix auth bug")
- `status` — one of: `pending`, `in_progress`, `completed`
- `activeForm` — present continuous ("Running tests", "Fixing auth bug")
Both `content` and `activeForm` are required for every todo. The activeForm is what gets shown while a task is executing.

How to install
mdr add oaustegard/claude-skills/tracking-todos@sha256:009fa14e48b38c4aThe line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, 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.
