neo-clarification

neo-clarification is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Benknightdark/neo-skills. It costs 41 tokens per session (711 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A requirements-clarification skill that turns vague complaints, fragmented notes, screenshots, or logs into structured specifications, acceptance criteria, and focused questions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to reconstruct context, identify affected system boundaries, analyze likely causes, and define clearer requirements.
Why use it?
It separates observed facts from expectations and exposes missing details before implementation begins.

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

neo-clarification 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/validate-requirements.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.

Requirement Clarification Specifications

Apply the Inversion & Generator Pattern. Follow this protocol strictly to translate raw, chaotic user complaints and screenshots into clean, structured system specifications.


1. Perceive Phase

  1. Information Extraction:

    • Carefully read the user's text and inspect any attached screenshots or logs.
    • Filter out emotional noise, frustrations, and blame.
    • Separate objective facts (what is currently happening or visible) from user expectations (what they wanted to accomplish).
  2. Identify System Boundaries:

    • Determine the scope, domain, and potential technical layers affected by the feedback (e.g., frontend rendering, network APIs, database states, permission groups).

2. Reason Phase

  1. Load Analysis Framework:

    • Always read the external analysis guide before starting your deduction: 5w1h-framework.md
  2. Context Reconstruction (5W1H):

    • Map the extracted facts to the 5W1H framework (Who, Where, When, What, Why, How).
    • Formulate logical hypotheses on the root causes of UI anomalies or system behaviors.
  3. Identify Gaps:

    • Pinpoint critical missing information (e.g., browser environment, specific action steps, parameters, error logs).
    • Prepare a list of clarifying questions to ask the user.

3. Act Phase

Generate a structured "Requirement Translation and Clarification Report" strictly in Traditional Chinese (Taiwan). Follow these steps:

  1. Load Output Template:

  2. Compile the Report:

    • Fill in the template using Traditional Chinese.
    • Context Restoration: Present objective facts concisely without emotional adjectives.
    • User Story: Use the strict format: "身為... 我想要... 以便於..."
    • System Requirements & Hypotheses: Highlight key rendering, API, and validation checkpoints for the development team.
    • Open Questions: List between 2 and 10 polite, precise, and constructive clarifying questions.

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.
