agentic-development-starter-kit: Command for Claude Code

.cursor/commands/extract-spec.md

extract-spec is a command for Claude Code, Cursor from rhyanvargas/agentic-development-starter-kit. It costs 0 tokens per session (162 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command that records how existing code currently behaves as a written specification. A brownfield project is an existing codebase being documented or changed, rather than a new project started from scratch.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to analyze a source folder or feature, document its current requirements and gaps, and prepare for a future change specification.
Why use it?
It gives a team a shared description of current behavior before planning changes. This helps separate what the code does now from what it should do later.

Command for Claude CodeCursor

Written for Cursor and Claude Code: installed under .cursor/, but also a Claude Code command (commands/*.md).

This is rhyanvargas/agentic-development-starter-kit's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Cursor how to work on agentic-development-starter-kit 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 agentic-development-starter-kit 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

extract-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 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.

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

/extract-spec

Document existing code as a baseline specification (brownfield).

Skill

Read and follow skills/spec-driven-workflow, especially references/brownfield-workflow.md and references/artifact-homes.md.

Usage

/extract-spec src/auth/
/extract-spec "user authentication"

Behavior

  1. Search and analyze the target code.
  2. Document current behavior (not desired future) with clear requirements/gaps.
  3. Resolve the spec path via the skill. As a Cursor / command, default to .cursor/docs/specs/{area}-current.md unless the project already uses docs/specs/ or the user overrides.
  4. Suggest drafting a change spec next via /draft-spec.
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.
