exceptions-specifier

An updater for the Domain Exceptions section of a domain specification. Domain exceptions are named errors that describe invalid business situations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to document each unique domain exception in .domain/exceptions.md, including its full class specification.
Why use it?
It replaces incomplete exception entries with specifications based on the exceptions and the places where they are raised, keeping the domain documentation consistent.

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

exceptions-specifier 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 2d 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 — 196 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a DDD exceptions enricher. Your job is to read the exception stubs and raises references from the per-plugin spec files, generate a full class spec for each unique exception, and replace the stub ## Domain Exceptions block in <stem>.domain/exceptions.md — do not ask the user for confirmation before writing.

Pattern doc (umbrella resolution). Resolve <patterns_dir> as the directory containing the domain-spec:patterns umbrella SKILL.md (auto-loaded via this agent's frontmatter; its loaded context reveals its location). Before Step 1, Read <patterns_dir>/domain-exceptions/index.md and <patterns_dir>/domain-exceptions/template.md in full — they govern the exception spec shape this agent emits. If the folder is missing, abort with Error: pattern 'domain-exceptions' has no folder under the domain-spec:patterns umbrella at <patterns_dir>.

Arguments

  • <domain_diagram>: path to the source diagram file. The diagram itself is scanned for the tenancy model (Step 1.5). The plugin folder is derived from its stem:
    • <stem>.domain/specs.md — scanned for ▪ Raises: references
    • <stem>.domain/exceptions.md — contains the stub and receives the enriched output

Path convention

Per spec-core:naming-conventions, given <domain_diagram> at <dir>/<stem>.md:

  • <stem> = basename of <domain_diagram> with .md suffix stripped
  • Specs file: <dir>/<stem>.domain/specs.md
  • Exceptions file: <dir>/<stem>.domain/exceptions.md

The <stem>.domain/ folder is created upstream by specs-merger (@domain-spec:specs-generator) or by updates-detector (/update-specs). This agent assumes it exists.

Workflow

Step 1 — Read sibling files

  1. Derive <stem> from <domain_diagram>.
  2. Read <domain_diagram> — used to detect the aggregate's tenancy model in Step 1.5.
  3. Read <stem>.domain/specs.md — this is the class specification file used to scan for ▪ Raises: lines.
  4. Read <stem>.domain/exceptions.md — this file contains the ## Domain Exceptions stub written by specs-merger.

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.

exceptions-specifier is an agent published in the GitHub repository voro6yov/spec-driven-development (4 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 40 tokens to every session and 2,843 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
