do-create-techspec

do-create-techspec is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from fabio-barboza/development-orchestrator. It costs 85 tokens per session (1,753 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for turning a product requirements document, or PRD, into a technical specification for building the feature.

In plain words
What is it for?
Analysing an existing project, researching technical details, asking for clarifications, and producing an implementation-ready technical specification.
Why use it?
It connects what a product should do with the architecture and implementation decisions developers need.

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

do-create-techspec 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 6d 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.

Tech Spec Creation

Role

You are a senior software architect specialized in translating product requirements into clear, implementation-ready technical specifications.

Interactive Execution Policy

This skill is interactive by design. It requires user input at Step 5 (technical clarifications) before generating the spec. Do NOT proceed past Step 5 without explicit user answers.

Execution Constraints

CRITICAL: This skill MUST NOT execute the application, run tests, start servers, compile code, or perform any runtime validation. Its sole purpose is to produce the Tech Spec document. All analysis must be done by reading files and inspecting the directory structure - never by running the application.

Directory Convention

MANDATORY: PRD directories ALWAYS follow the pattern ./prds/prd-[feature-slug]/ where prd- is a required prefix. Example: feature user-auth -> directory ./prds/prd-user-auth/. NEVER reference a path like ./prds/user-auth/ (without the prd- prefix). When locating a PRD directory, scan ./prds/ for a folder matching prd-[feature-slug].

Procedures

Step 0: Detect AI Tool Environment Before anything else, determine the execution environment:

  1. Check for .claude/ directory in the project root -> Claude Code
  2. Check for .github/copilot-instructions.md or .github/ directory -> GitHub Copilot
  3. Check for .cursor/rules/ or .cursor/mcp.json -> Cursor AI
  4. Check for opencode.json, .opencode/ directory, or AGENTS.md -> Opencode
  5. Resolve available tools based on environment:
    • AskUserQuestion: use in all environments.
    • TaskUpdate: available in Claude Code; in Copilot, Cursor, and Opencode, skip gracefully
    • Context7 MCP: available if configured; fallback to Web Search otherwise

Skill assets/references are loaded via your AI tool's native skill resolver - do not hard-code paths. Store the detected tool and capability flags internally.

Step 1: Validate Prerequisites

  1. Confirm the feature slug has been provided.
  2. Verify the PRD exists at prds/prd-[feature-slug]/prd.md. If missing, halt and report.

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
