OCTALUME: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/idea/SKILL.md

octalum-idea is a skill for Claude Code from Harery/OCTALUME. It costs 183 tokens per session (3,304 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill that turns an informal customer idea or brain dump into product documents and a development plan within the OCTALUME process.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to turn raw customer input into materials such as a business requirements document, product specifications, plans, and handoff notes.
Why use it?
It gives structure to vague requests by covering discovery, requirements, architecture, implementation, research, and later delivery stages.

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

octalum-idea 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.

OCTALUME Idea — Brain Dump → Build Orchestrator

Part of the OCTALUME framework (https://github.com/Harery/OCTALUME). This skill powers Phase 0 — the idea intake that feeds OCTALUME's 8-phase SDLC.

Who does what

You (Claude) own everything — A to Z:

  • Discovery, analysis, business logic, architecture, stack decisions
  • All writing: BRD, MVP, specs, plans, constitution, CLAUDE.md, MEMORY.md, HANDOFF.md
  • All technical work: logic design, diagrams, code generation, deployment, monitoring, maintenance
  • All research: live web search for tools, versions, pricing, competitors, SEO data
  • Every role — product manager, business analyst, architect, engineer, DevOps — all yours

The operator's only job:

  • Pass the real customer's raw idea to you
  • Translate the customer's intent when something is unclear
  • Say yes, no, or revise at each stage gate
  • Answer gaps you cannot infer on your own
  • The operator does NOT build. Does NOT code. Does NOT make technical decisions.

Before every session: Read references/operating-constraints.md. For voice/tone: Read references/voice-guide.md.


Pyramid Questioning System — NON-NEGOTIABLE

Questions narrow as pipeline descends. Load only the active layer's rules.

Stage 1     →  MACRO    — vision, users, problem space, big picture
Stages 2–3  →  MESO     — business model, revenue, competition, scope
Stages 4–5  →  MICRO    — features, flows, roles, constraints
Stages 6–7  →  NANO     — technical specifics, architecture, security
Stage 8     →  ATOMIC   — task-level logic and diagrams
Stages 9–12 →  BUILD    — generate, monitor, maintain (no new questions)

Stage 1 — Dynamic Intake (Question 0 + 9 generated questions)

The intake is never static. Every project is different — so every set of questions must be too.


Step 0 — Ask for the raw idea first

Before generating any questions, send exactly this as your opening message:

"Tell me about your idea — don't worry about structure, don't worry about details. Just write it the way you'd explain it to a friend. I'll read everything you give me and come back with the right questions."

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.
