build-mvp

build-mvp is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from BuildGreatProducts/builder-os. It costs 168 tokens per session (1,050 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A build workflow for completing an app from BuilderOS planning documents, including a product roadmap, technical requirements, design rules, and product strategy.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement all tasks in a product repository's roadmap until the planned MVP is built.
Why use it?
It removes the need to decide which planned task to implement next or which project documents to read. It follows the roadmap in order and stops if required planning documents are missing.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • low Excessive Agency · line 34
    Skill's behavior or capabilities extend beyond its stated purpose. Scope creep allows an agent to perform actions unrelated to its documented functionality, increasing the attack surface.
    Fix: Limit the skill's scope to its documented purpose. Remove instructions that enable the agent to perform actions outside its stated functionality.

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

build-mvp 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 10d 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 — 44 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Build MVP

Build the complete app by executing every task in docs/product-roadmap.md, in order, until all tasks are checked off.

Setup

Read docs/product-roadmap.md first — it is the source of truth for what to build and in what order. docs/prd.md is the technical spec behind it; docs/design.md holds the visual design tokens; docs/product-vision.md holds the product strategy. Do not load these documents wholesale — each phase lists the specific Reference sections to read, plus whatever a task's Notes line points to. If docs/product-roadmap.md or docs/prd.md is missing, stop and tell the user to run the Product Planner skill first (part of BuilderOS: https://github.com/BuildGreatProducts/builder-os).

Work loop

Repeat until every task in the roadmap is complete:

  1. Find the first unchecked task (- [ ]). Tasks are ordered intentionally — never skip ahead.
  2. Read what the task needs — its Files and Notes lines, plus the current phase's Reference sections if not yet read this session.
  3. Implement the task exactly as specified — file paths, package names, and config values are deliberate. Follow the repo's CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md guidelines: simplest implementation that satisfies the task, no speculative features, surgical changes only.
  4. Test and verify before moving on. Run the verification step at the end of the task's Notes, run the app, run existing tests, and add tests for new logic. If verification fails, fix it first — never mark a failing task complete or start the next task with the app broken.
  5. Mark the task complete — change - [ ] to - [x] and update the header status line (**Status:** X/Y tasks complete, **Current Phase:** ...).
  6. At each phase boundary: run the app end to end and confirm the phase's Goal is true and demoable before starting the next phase. No git or GitHub actions here — version control happens once at the end, after every phase is complete.

Rules

  • The PRD's stack choices are final — implement them, never substitute alternatives.
  • Visual styling comes from docs/design.md tokens — never invent colors, type, or spacing. If docs/design.md doesn't exist, follow the roadmap's foundation-phase guidance: prompt the user to run the Design System skill before styling work begins.
  • If a task is ambiguous or conflicts with the PRD, check the PRD section it references; if still unclear, ask one specific question rather than guessing.
  • If necessary work isn't covered by any task, surface it and propose adding a task — don't silently expand scope.
  • Keep going until **Status:** Y/Y tasks complete: every task checked, every phase verified, the magic moment working end to end.
  • No git or GitHub actions (init, commits, branches, pushes, PRs) until every phase is complete — version control is the wrap-up step, not part of the work loop.

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.
