extract

extract is a command for Claude Code from fistasolutions/fista-spec-kit. It costs 16 tokens per session (900 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A codebase-extraction command scans an existing project and turns its routes, components, and APIs into structured SpecKit documents. These documents describe the current system so it can be reused or extended.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when onboarding a legacy project, merging an external repository, or creating a baseline specification for future work.
Why use it?
It reduces the manual work of understanding an unfamiliar or older codebase before adding features or combining projects.

Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: $ARGUMENTS substitution.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is /extract ./apps/web.

Good fit Use it when onboarding a legacy project, merging an external repository, or creating a baseline specification for future work.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

extract scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 2mo 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.

User Input

$ARGUMENTS

If provided, treat $ARGUMENTS as a path (e.g., ./src, ./apps/web, ./apps/api); otherwise default to ./src.

Goal

Convert an existing codebase into structured SpecKit artifacts by automatically scanning its components, routes, and APIs.
This creates a reusable baseline specification that can be extended through /specify, analyzed via /analyze, and executed with /implement.

Use this command when onboarding legacy projects, merging external repos, or preparing for feature expansion.


Inputs

  • path (string, default: ./src) — Root folder to analyze.
  • openapi (optional string) — Path to OpenAPI JSON if not in common locations.

Steps

  1. Resolve Path

    • Verify the provided $ARGUMENTS path exists.
    • Normalize slashes for cross-platform support.
  2. Discover Web Routes

    • Glob: app/**/{page,route}.{ts,tsx,js,jsx}
    • Extract friendly URLs:
      • Strip /app/ prefix and filename.
      • Normalize /index to /.
      • Keep dynamic [id] segments.
  3. Detect UI Components

    • Search under components/, ui/, and shared/ directories.
    • Identify component names from filenames.
  4. Collect API Endpoints

    • Try loading OpenAPI JSON from:
      • apps/api/openapi.json
      • public/openapi.json
      • <path>/openapi.json
    • Parse endpoint method, path, and summary.
  5. Generate Artifacts (Non-Destructive)

    • Create or update:
      • packages/specs/active/extracted/spec.yaml
      • packages/specs/active/extracted/inventory.md
      • packages/specs/active/extracted/tasks.md
    • Append rather than overwrite.
    • Include a timestamp for traceability.
  6. Summarize Findings

    • Count total routes, components, and API endpoints.
    • Display summary in output:
      ✅ Extracted 18 routes, 7 components, 5 API endpoints.

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.

extract is a command published in the GitHub repository fistasolutions/fista-spec-kit (2 stars, last pushed 1y ago), licensed MIT. It adds 16 tokens to every session and 900 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
