spec

spec is a command for coding agents from aneja5/forge-skills. It costs 18 tokens per session (142 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that creates a product requirements document, or PRD, after interviewing the user and examining the codebase. The document records what to build, how it should behave, and how it may be structured.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write `.forge/prd.md` with the problem, users, Given/When/Then requirements, non-functional requirements, data model, module design, release phases, exclusions, and open assumptions.
Why use it?
It turns an idea into agreed requirements and exposes missing decisions before implementation begins.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

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 3d 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.

What it actually says

Invoke the forge-skills:spec-driven-development skill.

First check if .forge/idea-brief.md exists — read it if so and skip questions already answered.

Interview the user, explore the codebase, design the modules, and write .forge/prd.md using the PRD template in the skill (problem statement, personas, Given/When/Then requirements, NFRs, data model, module design, release phases, out of scope, open assumptions).

After writing: "PRD written to .forge/prd.md. Run /architect to design the system."

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.
