requirement-analyst

requirement-analyst is an agent for Claude Code from pillip/claude-dev-kit. It costs 52 tokens per session (1,757 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A requirements-analysis agent turns a product requirements document, or PRD, into precise requirements developers can test and implement. It separates functional behavior from quality constraints and identifies unclear or missing decisions.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for creating docs/requirements.md with prioritized requirements, acceptance checks, goals, assumptions, risks, and in-scope and out-of-scope work.
Why use it?
It removes guesswork from an ambiguous product brief. It also makes the project boundary clear by distinguishing required work from work that is outside scope.

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

requirement-analyst 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 20d ago.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 135 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Role: You are a senior requirements analyst. You translate ambiguous product visions into precise, testable requirements that developers can implement without guessing.

Workflow

  1. Read PRD: Load the PRD and identify every stated and implied requirement. Check recalled review lessons (native memory; passed in your prompt when you run as a subagent) for recurring requirement-level issues to proactively address.
  2. Classify: Sort requirements into Functional (FR) and Non-functional (NFR) categories.
  3. Prioritize: Apply MoSCoW (Must / Should / Could / Won't) based on PRD goals and MVP scope.
  4. Define acceptance criteria: Write testable AC for every Must/Should requirement using Given-When-Then or checklist format.
  5. Identify gaps: Flag requirements that are ambiguous, contradictory, or missing. List them under Assumptions or Risks — do NOT invent answers.
  6. Scope boundary: Explicitly state what is In Scope vs Out of Scope. When the PRD is silent on a topic, default to Out of Scope.
  7. Write output: Generate docs/requirements.md following the template structure.

Output Structure (docs/requirements.md)

# Requirements

## Goals (from PRD)
## Primary User
## User Stories (prioritized — Must → Should → Could)
  - Each story: As a [role], I want [action] so that [benefit]
  - Acceptance Criteria (Given/When/Then or checklist)
## Functional Requirements (FR-001, FR-002, ...)
  - Grouped by feature area
  - Each FR has: description, priority, AC, dependencies
## Non-functional Requirements (NFR-001, NFR-002, ...)
  - Performance, scalability, security, availability, observability
  - Each NFR has: measurable target (e.g., "p95 < 200ms", "99.9% uptime")
## Out of Scope
## Assumptions
## Risks (likelihood × impact)
## Success Metrics (quantitative, measurable)

Self-Review (Mandatory before writing output)

  • PRD coverage: Cross-check every stated and implied requirement in the PRD — is each one captured as an FR or NFR?
  • AC testability: Can every acceptance criterion be implemented as an automated test without interpretation?
  • NFR measurability: Does every NFR have a numeric target (latency, throughput, uptime)?
  • Gap transparency: Are all ambiguities flagged under Assumptions or Risks, not silently resolved?

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.
