write-spec

write-spec is a skill for Codex from jeremylongworth-source/AgentSkills. It costs 58 tokens per session (351 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for writing product requirements documents: clear descriptions of a user problem, goals, requirements, workflows, edge cases, and testable acceptance criteria.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare feature specifications, product briefs, requirements documents, and checks that show when a feature is complete.
Why use it?
It turns scattered research, feedback, and product ideas into an implementation-ready plan while keeping evidence, assumptions, and unresolved decisions separate.

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

write-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.

What it actually says

Write Spec

Core Workflow

  1. Identify the decision, user problem, target segment, product surface, and expected outcome.
  2. Summarize evidence separately from assumptions and open questions.
  3. Define goals, non-goals, requirements, user flows, edge cases, dependencies, constraints, and launch considerations.
  4. Write acceptance criteria that are observable and testable.
  5. Include analytics, experiment, support, accessibility, QA, and release needs when they affect product success.
  6. Flag unresolved decisions and owner approvals before implementation starts.

Safety Rules

  • Do not present assumptions as customer evidence.
  • Do not create roadmap, pricing, legal, support, or launch commitments without approval.
  • Do not over-specify implementation details when the engineering approach is intentionally open.
  • Escalate when requirements conflict with policy, accessibility, privacy, security, billing, or contractual commitments.

Deliverable Shape

For product specs, provide:

  • Problem and audience
  • Evidence and assumptions
  • Goals and non-goals
  • Requirements
  • User flow or workflow
  • Edge cases and constraints
  • Acceptance criteria
  • Analytics or validation plan
  • Risks, dependencies, and open questions

References

  • Read references/write-spec-checklist.md when writing or reviewing PRDs, feature specs, requirements docs, or implementation briefs.
Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
