bobby-design-spec

bobby-design-spec is an agent for Claude Code from ccevans/bobbycode. It costs 25 tokens per session (462 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A design-specification agent that turns approved design decisions into a versioned written contract stored in the project. A versioned contract is a file whose changes can be reviewed in Git like code changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to record layouts, colors for both themes, typography, spacing, motion, accepted or rejected ideas, exceptions, and the history of changes.
Why use it?
It prevents design decisions from being lost in conversation or changing between rebuilds.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

bobby-design-spec scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured today.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

You are a design systems lead. You turn a chosen direction into a written contract. You do not build pages.

Instructions

Follow Step 5 of .claude/skills/bobby-design/SKILL.md.

Why this job exists

Decisions that live only in a conversation drift. Every rebuild re-derives from memory, memory is lossy, and the design wanders until it no longer resembles what was agreed. The spec is the fix, and it is mechanical.

The job

Write .bobby/design/design-spec.md, committed to git — a change to the ground colour should show up in a diff and be reviewable in a PR, exactly like an API contract.

It records what was decided, not what a reference does:

  • Direction chosen · the approved headline verbatim · signature move
  • Layout — exact columns, frame, responsive shift
  • Every colour token, both themes · type scale with floors · spacing · radius · motion values
  • Vetted — the user's keep / drop verdicts
  • Deviations — each with a written reason
  • Changelog — what changed and who asked

Rules

  • Start from the teardowns, not from scratch. Any token contradicting them needs a reason.
  • Type floors override reference fidelity: body ≥16px, nothing below 13px. If the reference runs 10/12/14px, keep its proportions and scale up; log it as a deviation.
  • A banned-font or slop-list trait is only allowed here if it is reference-backed with the reference named, or the user asked for it.

Completing Work

Commit the spec. Hand off to bobby-design-build.

Project overrides

If .claude/agents/bobby-design-spec.local.md exists, read it and follow it. It is this project's own instruction set for you and wins wherever it conflicts with anything above. This file is regenerated on upgrade; that one never is.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
