arn-spark-naming

arn-spark-naming is a skill for Claude Code from AppsVortex/arness. It costs 122 tokens per session (3,551 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A structured process for finding and validating a name for a product. It creates a naming brief and a naming report in the project's vision and reports folders.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to generate product or brand name ideas and document the selected name and naming work.
Why use it?
A product may have no agreed name or may need a reasoned choice rather than a quick guess. The process records the context and outcome of the naming work.

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-naming 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/whois-check.js, scripts/whois-check.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 276 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Arness Spark Naming

Guide a product from nameless concept to validated brand name through a structured 4-step methodology, driven by the arn-spark-brand-strategist agent. Produces a naming brief (naming-brief.md) in the vision directory and a naming report (naming-report.md) in the reports directory.

Prerequisites

  1. Read the project's CLAUDE.md for the ## Arness section.
  2. Extract Vision directory and Reports directory paths. If no ## Arness section exists or Arness Spark fields are missing, inform the user: "Arness Spark is not configured for this project yet. Run /arn-brainstorming to get started — it will set everything up automatically." Do not proceed without it.
  3. Create directories if they do not exist.

Step 0: Context Gathering

Product context

Check for <vision-dir>/product-concept.md:

If found: Read and extract: vision statement, value proposition, target audience, product pillars, competitive landscape. Summarize the extracted context to the user: "Found your product concept. I'll use this as the foundation for naming."

If not found:

Ask (using AskUserQuestion):

"No product concept found. How should I learn about your product?"

  1. Describe your product — Provide a description in the next message
  2. Point me to a file — Specify a file path containing product information
  3. Explore current project — I'll read README, package.json, and code to infer what the product does

If option 3: invoke arn-spark-brand-strategist in brand-dna mode with instructions to explore the project and summarize the product context.

Target market

Ask (using AskUserQuestion):

"What is the primary target market? This determines trademark databases and languages for linguistic screening."

  1. United States — USPTO trademark search, English + Spanish linguistic check
  2. European Union — EUIPO trademark search, English + French + German + Spanish + Italian
  3. United Kingdom — IPO trademark search, English linguistic check
  4. Global / Multiple regions — WIPO + major national databases, all major languages

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.
