init-preferences

An interactive setup wizard for configuring defaults and behavior used by project commands and development workflows.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to set or reset command modes, interface preferences, CI/CD defaults, parallel development settings, prototype options, testing options, and database migration safety preferences.
Why use it?
It prevents you from repeatedly choosing the same settings for automation, Git worktrees, prototypes, tests, migrations, and other workflows.

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.

Made for: Claude Code.

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

init-preferences 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 — 848 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

What it configures:

  • Command default modes (/epic, /tasks, /init-project, /run-prompt)
  • UI preferences (usage stats, last-used recommendations)
  • Automation behavior (CI/CD defaults)
  • Git worktree preferences (parallel development)
  • Prototype workflow preferences
  • E2E and visual regression testing (v10.4)
  • Database migration safety (v10.5)
  • Perpetual learning system

Output:

  • Creates/updates .spec-flow/config/user-preferences.yaml
  • Provides configuration summary
  • Shows example commands using new preferences

Flags:

  • --reset: Reset all preferences to defaults (interactive confirmation)

If $ARGUMENTS contains "--reset":

  1. Read existing preferences to show what will be reset

  2. Use AskUserQuestion to confirm:

    Question: "Reset all preferences to defaults?"
    Options:
      - "Yes, reset everything" - All preferences will be set to defaults
      - "No, keep current preferences" - Cancel reset operation
    
  3. If confirmed:

    • Copy .spec-flow/config/user-preferences.example.yaml to .spec-flow/config/user-preferences.yaml
    • Display: "✓ Preferences reset to defaults"
    • End command
  4. If cancelled: End command

This wizard will help you configure default behavior for Spec-Flow commands.

Your preferences are saved to: .spec-flow/config/user-preferences.yaml

You can always:
- Re-run this wizard to update preferences
- Edit the config file directly
- Override preferences with command-line flags
- Reset with: /init-preferences --reset

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.
