arn-spark-feature-extract

arn-spark-feature-extract is a skill for Claude Code from AppsVortex/arness. It costs 131 tokens per session (8,785 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided workflow for turning project material into a structured, prioritised feature backlog. A backlog is a list of planned product capabilities, ordered for future work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to identify and prioritise features, connect them to user journeys and validated designs, and maintain a local feature tracker.
Why use it?
Important details can be scattered across product, design, research, and prototype documents. This gathers them into a feature list that can feed later specifications and track dependencies.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; names the AskUserQuestion tool.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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

arn-spark-feature-extract 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 today.

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.

Arness Feature Extract

Extract a structured, prioritized feature backlog from all available project artifacts through guided conversation, aided by the arn-spark-product-strategist and arn-spark-ux-specialist agents (greenfield agents in this plugin) for feature analysis, prioritization, and UX flow analysis. This is a conversational skill that runs in normal conversation (NOT plan mode). The primary artifact is a feature backlog document that feeds into arn-code-feature-spec.

This skill bridges the greenfield pipeline into Arness's existing development pipeline. It takes all upstream artifacts -- product concept, architecture vision, spike results, style brief, static prototype validation (including showcase and debate reports), clickable prototype validation (including showcase, screen manifest, and debate reports), use cases (including postconditions, business rules, and debate reports), and visual grounding assets -- and distills them into a prioritized list of features with a local Feature Tracker for dependency management.

Each feature carries lean context (description, journey summary, UI behavior unique to the feature, validated components, use case references, debate insights, technical notes, acceptance criteria) with references to upstream UC documents. arn-code-feature-spec expands these references at spec time by reading the referenced UC documents directly.

Optionally, features can be uploaded as issues to the configured issue tracker (GitHub or Jira) for team visibility and tracking.

Prerequisites

At minimum, a product concept document should exist. Check in order:

  1. Read the project's CLAUDE.md for a ## Arness section. If found, check the configured Vision directory for product-concept.md
  2. If no ## Arness section found, check .arness/vision/product-concept.md at the project root

If a product concept is found: Read it as the primary source for feature extraction.

If no product concept is found: Ask the user: "No product concept found. I can extract features from your description of the product. What are the main things users should be able to do?"

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.
