specify

A command that creates or updates a written feature specification from a natural-language description.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to start or revise feature specifications for web, iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter, or mobile-backend projects.
Why use it?
It turns an informal feature idea into a project specification while checking the project’s default platform first, which matters when requirements differ between web and mobile software.

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

specify 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.

User Input

$ARGUMENTS

You MUST consider the user input before proceeding (if not empty).

Outline

The text the user typed after /atomicspec.specify in the triggering message is the feature description. Assume you always have it available in this conversation even if {ARGS} appears literally below. Do not ask the user to repeat it unless they provided an empty command.

Given that feature description, do this:

  1. Platform Detection (CRITICAL - runs BEFORE all other steps):

    Platform context is essential for mobile apps and must be established first.

    a. Check registry for existing platform: Read specs/_defaults/registry.yaml and check for target_platform.primary

    b. If platform is found in registry:

    • Use that value as the Platform for this spec
    • Inform user: "Using platform from project defaults: [platform]"

    c. If platform is NOT found in registry:

    • Ask user with AskUserQuestion:
      What platform are you building for?
      - Web (browser-based application)
      - iOS (native iPhone/iPad app)
      - Android (native Android app)
      - React Native (cross-platform mobile)
      - Flutter (cross-platform mobile)
      - Mobile + Backend (mobile app with dedicated backend/API)
      - Backend-only (API / service with no user-facing frontend)
      
    • If user selects "Mobile + Backend":
      • Ask a follow-up AskUserQuestion:
        Which mobile framework will you use?
        - React Native
        - Flutter
        - iOS (native Swift/SwiftUI)
        - Android (native Kotlin/Compose)
        
      • Store the mobile framework choice in specs/_defaults/registry.yaml under mobile_framework
      • Set the Platform value to both (the registry's mobile_framework and backend.* fields provide the specifics)
    • If user selects "Backend-only":
      • Set the Platform value to Backend-only
    • Store the user's response for use in step 5

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.

specify is a command published in the GitHub repository Chappygo-OS/Atomic-Spec (10 stars, last pushed 9d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 13 tokens to every session and 4,419 once invoked, about $0.0001 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.
