speckit: Command for Claude Code

.claude/commands/_example-command.md

_example-command is a command for Claude Code from jmanhype/speckit. It costs 0 tokens per session (364 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A template for creating a custom slash command for an AI coding assistant. It shows how to accept user arguments and guide the assistant through research, planning, edits, tests, and cleanup.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it as a pattern when defining project-specific commands that analyze a codebase, make targeted changes, and verify the result.
Why use it?
It gives command authors a starting structure instead of requiring them to design the command format from scratch.

Command for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: $ARGUMENTS substitution. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths.

This is jmanhype/speckit's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on speckit itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything speckit configures →

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

_example-command 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 1mo 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

Example Custom Slash Command

This is a template for creating your own custom slash commands. Rename this file to your-command-name.md and customize it. Delete this file if you don't need it.

Usage

/project:example-command <your arguments here>

What This Command Does

This command template demonstrates the key features of custom slash commands:

  1. $ARGUMENTS - Captures everything after the command name
  2. Structured prompts - Guide Claude through specific steps
  3. Tool suggestions - Recommend specific tools for tasks

Command Prompt

Analyze and work on: $ARGUMENTS

Follow these steps:

  1. Understand the Request

    • Parse what the user is asking for
    • Identify key requirements and constraints
  2. Research the Codebase

    • Use Glob to find relevant files
    • Use Grep to search for patterns
    • Use Read to examine file contents
  3. Plan the Approach

    • Outline the steps needed
    • Identify potential challenges
    • Consider edge cases
  4. Implement Changes

    • Make targeted edits using Edit
    • Create new files only if necessary using Write
    • Run tests to verify changes
  5. Verify and Clean Up

    • Run linting and type checking
    • Ensure tests pass
    • Create a descriptive commit message

Notes

  • Commands in .claude/commands/ are project-specific
  • Commands in ~/.claude/commands/ are available globally
  • Use descriptive filenames: fix-github-issue.md, deploy-staging.md
  • The $ARGUMENTS keyword passes user input to the prompt
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.

_example-command is a command published in the GitHub repository jmanhype/speckit (26 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 364 tokens. 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 2026-09-01.
