spectre-prototype

spectre-prototype is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from joenandez/spectre. It costs 54 tokens per session (1,252 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for creating one self-contained HTML prototype to clarify an idea, test user flows, or preview an interface before planning or production coding.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create mockups from UX or scope documents, explore rough layouts, validate flows, and render documented screens and interactions.
Why use it?
It makes unclear screens and interactions easier to inspect early, when changes are cheaper and before a multi-file application is built.

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

spectre-prototype 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 2d 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.

prototype

Purpose

Produce one HTML prototype at {FEATURE_ROOT}/prototypes/{slug}_{MMDDYY}.html. The primary owns it; agents provide evidence only.

Inputs

  • $ARGUMENTS: feature root/name or descendant, description, optional --explore; markers FROM_UX=true, FROM_KICKOFF=true.
  • Read existing concepts/scope.md, specs/prd.md, ux.md, then legacy specs/ux.md fully before questions.
  • Silently read repo-root product.md when present, plus design.md or fallback design/design.md; apply them; do not mention missing files.
Mode Signal Fidelity Contract
post-ux complete ux.md: Screens, Layouts, Components, Interactions, States, Content high render faithfully; exact documented copy; no invented screens
flows-only ux FROM_UX=true or flows without complete Stage 2 mid preserve approved flows; choose UI details
explore --explore low, grayscale/layout-only visualize an unvalidated concept
post-scope scope, no UX mid validate scope
standalone no artifact mid establish what to prototype

Working Set

  • Reuse a managed FEATURE_ROOT only when explicit/current-thread evidence ties it to this work (physical directory wins; never branch/recency/lifecycle/scans); distinct work ignores ambient roots. Otherwise, including on collision, standalone MUST first load and follow Skill(spectre-feature-root) through DONE; orchestrated calls escalate. Keep writes beneath it and pass it unchanged.
  • Repair stale feature/root metadata in artifacts this workflow touches.

Outputs + DONE

The single HTML file contains:

  • <!DOCTYPE html>, viewport metadata, inline CSS, and inline end-of-body JavaScript.
  • A top-of-head comment beginning Feature: and Feature Root:, followed by Fidelity, Generated, Flow covered, Screens/states, Visual anchor, Source spec, Key assumptions, post-UX Filled assumptions, NOT included, and Next step.
  • A design-token comment for Primary, Accent, Surface, Text, Font, Border-radius, Spacing, mirrored as :root custom properties.
  • If multi-screen, vanilla-JS display:block/none navigation; one ordered <section> per screen, each with happy path plus an empty, error, or loading state.

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.
