requirements-dev

requirements-dev is a skill for Claude Code from ddunnock/claude-plugins. It costs 103 tokens per session (3,825 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A requirements-engineering skill for turning early project needs into formal, testable requirements. Requirements engineering is the process of defining what a system must do and how those statements will be checked.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write a requirements specification, traceability and verification matrices, registries, and optionally a ReqIF export for exchanging requirements.
Why use it?
It organizes needs, assumptions, sources, requirements, and verification methods so that each requirement can be traced back to its origin and checked later.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable.

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

requirements-dev 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 26 executable files (hooks/scripts/update-state-on-write.sh, scripts/assumption_tracker.py, scripts/check_tools.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 — 247 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Requirements Development (INCOSE GtWR v4)

Transform concept development artifacts into formal, INCOSE-compliant requirements through a structured three-phase pipeline with gate-controlled progression.

Deliverables

This skill produces three primary documents plus supporting registries:

Deliverable Format Content
REQUIREMENTS-SPECIFICATION.md Markdown All requirements organized by block and type
TRACEABILITY-MATRIX.md Markdown Bidirectional chain: source → need → requirement → V&V
VERIFICATION-MATRIX.md Markdown All requirements with V&V methods, criteria, status
*.reqif XML Optional ReqIF interchange export
JSON registries JSON needs, requirements, traceability, sources, assumptions, notes

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.
