brief

brief is a skill for Claude Code from dkadts/landing-kit-building. It costs 41 tokens per session (644 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An interactive questionnaire that collects a project's requirements in nine brief files, starting with whether the design should prioritize desktop or mobile screens.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when starting a project, revising an existing brief, or choosing details such as the target niche, device priority, and content process.
Why use it?
It turns unspecified decisions into recorded answers before implementation, so later work has clear guidance about the audience, content, goals, and layout.

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

brief 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 9d 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 — 79 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/brief

Guides the user through the questionnaire. Fills brief/00-priority.mdbrief/08-content-pipeline.md.

When to use

  • Start of a new project (before any /build).
  • User prefers a dialog over filling .md files by hand.
  • Revising an existing brief.

Process

Step 1. Read existing files Read every brief/*.md. Determine which fields are filled, which are TBD.

Step 2. Ask the first — most important — question

Desktop-first or mobile-first?

This decides:
- Assembly order (down or up)
- Block composition
- Reference viewport (1920px or 390px)

Help to choose: <brief decision table from 00-priority.md>

Wait for an explicit answer. Save to brief/00-priority.md.

Step 3. Walk files 01-08 in order

For each file:

  • List TBD fields.
  • Ask one question at a time (do not batch 10 questions at once — user tires).
  • Use checklists where preset options exist.
  • Save the answer (Edit tool).

Step 4. Special attention — niche discovery

brief/01-business.md — niche section — critical for /copy-analyze. Do not accept "beauty" — narrow it to "men's Botox for CEOs 35-50 in Barcelona". Do not accept "clients" — narrow maturity (cold/warm/hot).

Step 5. After 07-interactive

If the user checked interactive blocks — offer to run /blocks immediately to configure.

Step 6. Final summary

Show brief completeness: how many fields LOCKED, how many TBD. If TBD remain — what to ask the client.

Rules of behavior

  • One field — one question. Do not batch.
  • Do not guess for the user. If unclear — clarify.
  • Use examples. "e.g. form submission → manager calls within 2 hours".
  • Save as you go. Not at the end. Otherwise if the session drops — everything's lost.
  • Respect status. If a field is already filled — do not re-ask, only clarify if needed.

What NOT to do

  • Do not start /design-lock until 01-business + 02-audience + 05-design are filled.
  • Do not suggest skipping 00-priority — it's critical.
  • Do not fill brief/copy-analysis.md — that's /copy-analyze.
  • Do not touch brief/blocks/*.md — that's /blocks.

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.
