intent-from-spec

intent-from-spec is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ijust/intent-planner. It costs 78 tokens per session (3,640 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only tool that reads a natural-language specification, such as a product requirements document, issue, notes, or voice transcript, and extracts possible goals, requirements, constraints, and unanswered questions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare intent-planning input from written specs, scribbles, or transcripts, including technical and security requirements.
Why use it?
It turns incomplete or informal descriptions into a structured list while clearly separating confirmed decisions from assumptions. It also exposes details the original text leaves unstated.

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

intent-from-spec 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 3d 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.

Core Mission

  • Success Criteria (success if achieved; the extract / check / sort / recap procedure detail is consolidated into Execution Steps, and only the outcomes are declared here):
    • Reads the natural-language text (a spec or fragmentary notes) read-only and extracts intent candidates for purpose, outcomes, capabilities, invariants, constraints, anti-direction, and implicit assumptions, marking them all as Assumptions (inferred intent) and never mixing them with canonical (confirmed intent) (Step 1–2. R1.1 / R1.2)
    • When the input is fragmentary notes / scribbles / a voice transcript, bundles the fragments by topic (clustering) and sorts them into "decided / undecided" before the 7-category extraction, presenting every bundle and mark with the inferred marker (without over-rewriting the person's words). For organized-document input this pre-stage does not trigger and the existing output structure is unchanged (C49, DR113)
    • Limits input to that spec text and does not use source code, execution traces, or test results as extraction input (R1.4). Picks up the spec's technical / security requirements without dropping them as Compass Invariants candidates, limiting their destination to Invariants (reflection into tech.md / design delegated downstream. R1.5 / R1.6)
    • When no spec text is provided as input, performs no extraction, asks the user for the spec to ingest, and stops (fail-fast. R1.3)
    • Reads the existing rulers (the inspection catalog in validate-checks.md and the common-core slots in decision-slots.md) against the spec and enumerates the unfilled items as gaps, showing in an observable form which category / slot each is the silence of, and presenting it as a hypothesis rather than a confirmed defect (R2.1 / R2.2 / R2.3). Does not stop processing while presenting; limits to warnings / awareness (same stance as drift-watch. R2.4)
    • Qualitatively sorts the extractions / gaps by load-bearing, presenting high distinctly from low. The judgment merely reads and copies the "front-load / defer door" column in decision-slots.md, and holds no mathematical solver, numeric score, or threshold (R3.1 / R3.2 / R3.3)
    • Summarizes "what was checked and what was left unfilled" as an omission recap, prompting reconfirmation (R4.1)
    • Treats only approved items as candidates for canonical promotion, retains unapproved items as Assumptions without discarding them, performs no auto-reflection, and delegates promotion to the user's manual copy (R4.2 / R4.3 / R4.4)
    • Limits output to derived artifacts under .intent/spec-ingest/, and never modifies any canonical .intent/*.md, application code, or the input spec (read-only. R5.2). Follows the intent-* naming convention and does not modify external spec tools or the kiro-* development environment (R5.6)

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.

intent-from-spec is a skill published in the GitHub repository ijust/intent-planner (5 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 78 tokens to every session and 3,640 once invoked, about $0.0004 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 2026-08-31.
