specd-explore

specd-explore is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jnerytech/specd. It costs 88 tokens per session (1,473 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A repository exploration workflow for a specd change, recording its scope, affected code, existing requirements, and gaps in explore/notes.md. specd is a command-line tool for managing structured changes, and a board is a task-tracking system.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before proposing or applying a change when you need to map the codebase, inspect requirements, or resolve the related board card.
Why use it?
It helps investigate a proposed change before writing or modifying code, while checking the required tool version and task information.

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

specd-explore 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 12d 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 — 151 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

specd-explore

Primeiro passo do ciclo explore → propose → apply → archive. Abre a change e produz o registro da exploração. Não escreve delta, não altera código, não transiciona nada no board.

Antes de qualquer coisa

specd --version

Se a versão for menor que a declarada em requires_specd, pare e diga qual está instalada e qual é necessária. Uma skill que segue contra uma CLI velha acaba reconstruindo à mão o que o comando ausente decidiria — que é exatamente o erro que ela existe para evitar.

1. Ler o modo do repositório

specd status --json

O modo vem da configuração, nunca da aparência do repositório:

  • [board] provider definido → modo com board
  • ausente → modo sem board

[board] card diz se toda change precisa declarar o card de onde nasceu: required (padrão onde há board) ou optional.

Nunca conclua "parece que aqui tem board". Isso é decidir o ciclo por semelhança, e o princípio no-guessing-on-conflict proíbe.

2. Estabelecer o escopo

Com board. Resolver a tarefa é obrigatório quando card = "required". Sem card resolvido não há change. Se a busca devolver mais de um candidato plausível ou nenhum, pare e pergunte pela ferramenta de pergunta do host, com os candidatos como opções — não escolha "o mais parecido" nem siga sem card.

Sem board. O escopo vem da descrição de quem roda a skill, e é registrado em explore/notes.md com a mesma cerimônia que uma issue teria. Escopo dito de boca e não escrito não sobrevive à próxima sessão (memory-is-ephemeral).

3. Abrir a change

O nome é kebab-case com prefixo de data: AAAA-MM-DD-escopo. Crie .specd/changes/<nome>/proposal.md com a frontmatter:

---
change: 2026-08-01-escopo
status: active
card:
  ref: "4821"
  url: "https://board.example/issues/4821"
---

card só entra quando existe card. Onde [board] card = "required", a camada schema do gate reprova a change sem ele.

4. Ler a spec efetiva

specd spec --json

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.
