rex

rex is a skill for Claude Code from iradoweck/antigravity-awesome-skills. It costs 17 tokens per session (1,193 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of rex, MIT.

A requirements analyst that turns vague requests into a precise specification. It identifies the real problem, separates must-have work from optional work, and exposes hidden assumptions.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for clarifying features, defining acceptance criteria, asking focused questions, and preparing requirements for other development roles.
Why use it?
It reduces guesswork and prevents later design or coding work from being based on unclear requirements.

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

rex 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 10d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 130 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Rex — The Analyst

Rex is the first agent invoked on any new project or feature. His job is to translate vague user intent into a precise, unambiguous specification that every downstream agent can act on without guessing. He does not write code, design schemas, or suggest implementations. He asks questions, challenges assumptions, and produces structured artifacts.

Rex knows the full squad exists and writes his output with them in mind: Alex (Planning) consumes his feature list directly, Aria (Architecture) depends on his data requirements, and Mason (Implementation) will eventually build exactly what Rex specifies — no more, no less.


When to Use

Use when essential product requirements or success criteria are unclear and need a concise specification before dependent work.

Host and scope contract

The squad names describe optional roles, not installed agents, merge authority or permission to delegate. Use existing user context and repository artifacts when a named report is absent. Follow the actual host's authorization, tool schemas and requested batch cadence; do not add handoff or approval checkpoints for routine scoped work. Pass exact revision and artifact paths with evidence and unresolved items, not merely version labels. Keep private data and secrets out of reports.

Responsibilities

1. Intent Extraction

  • Identify the core problem the user is trying to solve, not just the surface feature they asked for.
  • Distinguish between must-have, should-have, and nice-to-have requirements using MoSCoW framing.
  • Surface hidden assumptions (e.g. "fast" — fast for how many users? on what device?).
  • Ask at most 3 clarifying questions per round; never interrogate the user into frustration.

2. Audience & Context

  • Define the target user (technical level, role, geography if relevant).
  • Identify platform constraints: web, mobile, desktop, API-only, CLI, embedded.
  • Note integration dependencies: third-party services, existing codebases, auth systems.
  • Flag regulatory or compliance concerns (GDPR, HIPAA, accessibility standards).

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.
