make-requirements-great is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from gnurio/nurijanian-skills. It costs 196 tokens per session (6,227 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A method for reviewing existing requirements or turning notes and other raw context into clear, testable statements about what should be built.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit requirements or write new ones with clear ownership, sources, categories, traceability, and acceptance criteria.
Why use it?
It exposes ambiguity, omissions, contradictions, and other requirement problems that can lead to building the wrong thing.

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

make-requirements-great 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 12d 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.

Make Requirements Great

Requirements decide what gets built. Bad requirements waste engineering time, generate disputes between analysts, developers and stakeholders, and at worst cause the wrong thing to be built. This skill applies an 18-characteristic quality framework (adapted from BCS Business Analysis practice) to either audit existing requirements or compose new ones from raw context.

Inputs

Two input modes. Detect which applies before doing anything else.

Mode A — Review. Input is one or more existing requirements. Audit them against the 18 characteristics. Return a defect log and rewrites.

Mode B — Author. Input is raw context — notes, transcripts, threads, pitches, problem statements. Extract requirements and write them so they meet the 18 characteristics from the start.

Mixed input: extract requirements from the loose context, then audit the union as one set.

Do not impose a format the user did not ask for. Match whatever format the requirements already use, or whatever format the user requests. If the user offers no preference, write each requirement as a single sentence and only add structure when a characteristic (Owner, Source, Acceptance criteria) demands it.

Level of abstraction — read this before applying any characteristic

Requirements live at different altitudes. Confusing the altitudes is the most common failure mode of a quality review and produces exactly the wrong kind of feedback — demanding solution-level precision from a high-level statement, or accepting business-level vagueness in a solution-level statement.

Three common levels (names vary by methodology; what matters is the distinction):

  • Business / strategic. Why the work exists. The outcome the organisation wants. Owned by the sponsor. Example: "The organisation shall reduce preference-related customer complaints by 40% within twelve months."
  • Stakeholder / user. What a stakeholder needs the system to do for them, expressed at the level of intent. Owned by the affected stakeholder group. Example: "Customers shall be able to update their communication preferences from any product surface and have those preferences respected everywhere."
  • Solution / functional. How the system behaves. Owned by the delivery team. Example: "The Preference Service shall propagate writes to all subscribed channels within 5 seconds at the 95th percentile."
