tech-spec

tech-spec is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from iurysza/android-use. It costs 33 tokens per session (882 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A technical-specification workflow for turning an agreed software change into an implementation-ready design. It describes interfaces, module boundaries, data flow, file changes, and focused test areas without implementing the change.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for architecture decisions and implementation handoffs, including tracing current code, comparing design options, documenting constraints, and defining test slices.
Why use it?
Implementation work can go wrong when the design leaves contracts, affected files, or testing responsibilities unclear. This creates a durable handoff based on the existing code and 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

tech-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 1mo 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.

Technical Specification

A tech spec is a typed architecture handoff. Types and call stacks define what changes; prose explains why.

This workflow is design-only. Do not implement. Write durable specs to ai-artifacts/specs/YYYY-MM-DD-<topic>.md unless the user or repository explicitly requires another location.

Choose the path

  • Convert context: use when conversation, docs, and code already define the problem and constraints.
  • Set up the goal first: use the setup-goal skill when important requirements, boundaries, or acceptance criteria remain unresolved.

Answer repository questions by inspecting the repository. Ask the user only for decisions.

Build the spec

1. Establish current state

Read relevant code, tests, docs, project instructions, domain vocabulary, and architectural decisions. Trace the existing entrypoint-to-effect flow.

Capture the problem, callers, goals, non-goals, constraints, invariants, affected systems, operational concerns, risks, and open questions. Do not invent missing requirements.

2. Compare real alternatives

Offer materially different designs. They should differ in ownership, interfaces, seam placement, call stack, runtime topology, or state model—not merely names.

For each option show:

  • domain and application types
  • public interfaces
  • module and adapter ownership
  • entrypoint-to-effect call stack
  • failure and cancellation behavior
  • persistence and transaction boundaries
  • testing seams
  • costs and risks

Choose the recommendation only after comparison.

3. Define contracts

Sketch every new or changed boundary in code:

type Input = { /* parsed application values */ };
type Output = { /* caller-visible result */ };
type ExpectedFailure = FailureA | FailureB;

interface Capability {
  execute(input: Input): Promise<Result<Output, ExpectedFailure>>;
}

Cover domain values, state variants, request/response shapes, parsers, functions, ports, adapters, records, events, and public APIs as applicable. State what may cross each boundary and what must remain private.

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.

tech-spec is a skill published in the GitHub repository iurysza/android-use (21 stars, last pushed 16d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 33 tokens to every session and 882 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-15.
