Borrowing it
Nothing to install: this file belongs to HelixDevelopment/code. Take a copy, put it at the same path in your own repository, and replace the rules that are about this project with yours.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00093 | $0.04245 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00046 | $0.02122 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00019 | $0.00849 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00424 |
Grade A, and why
superspec 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 5d 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 — 407 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Superspec
Superspec unifies spec-kit specification-driven development with obra/superpowers agent capabilities into a single workflow. Spec-kit provides the document structure and governance; superpowers provides deep clarification, task decomposition, and engineering execution discipline.

Prerequisites
Required: None. Superspec works standalone with built-in fallback protocols.
Optional (enhanced): Install obra/superpowers
skills to ~/.agents/skills/ or .agents/skills/ for richer brainstorming,
planning, and execution capabilities. See superpowers-bridge.md
for detection and integration details.
Project Structure
When initialized, superspec relies on spec-kit's two top-level directories
at the project root: .specify/ for tool metadata and specs/ for feature
artifacts.

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.
- 5d ago First seen · 407 lines · 93 tokens per session scan A ed0a055a048e
superspec is a skill published in the GitHub repository HelixDevelopment/code (2 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 93 tokens to every session and 4,245 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-04.
