prd-v06-technical-specification

prd-v06-technical-specification is a skill for Claude Code from mattgierhart/PRD-driven-context-engineering. It costs 128 tokens per session (3,441 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A technical specification workflow that defines the APIs and data models developers will build against. APIs describe how software communicates, while data models describe the information it stores and exchanges.

In plain words
What is it for?
Defining API endpoints, database schemas, request and response fields, validation rules, rate limits, and related data structures.
Why use it?
It turns earlier architecture, technology, user-flow, screen, and business decisions into concrete implementation contracts.

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

prd-v06-technical-specification 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 8d 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

Position in workflow: v0.6 Architecture Design → v0.6 Technical Specification → v0.7 Build Execution

Technical specification defines the contracts developers build against: API endpoints and data models. This is the bridge between architecture and implementation.

Consumes

This skill requires prior work from v0.3-v0.6:

  • ARC-* architecture decisions (from v0.6 Architecture Design) — System structure (monolith vs microservices) determines API organization; integration patterns guide webhook/adapter design
  • TECH-* Build items (from v0.5 Technical Stack Selection) — Technologies chosen define data model types (PostgreSQL requires relational schema; MongoDB requires document schema)
  • UJ-* user journeys (from v0.4 User Journey Mapping) — Journey steps determine API call sequences; value moments determine response contracts
  • SCR-* screen entries (from v0.4 Screen Flow Definition) — Screen data requirements determine API response shape; form submissions map to POST/PUT/PATCH endpoints
  • BR-* business rules (from v0.3 Commercial Model) — Business constraints enforced in API responses (rate limits, validation rules, field constraints)

This skill assumes v0.6 Architecture Design is complete with ARC- entries providing system structure.

Produces

This skill creates/updates:

  • API-* entries (API endpoint contracts) — REST/GraphQL endpoint specifications with request/response shapes, auth requirements, error codes, tied to UJ-/SCR- consumers and DBT- data sources
  • DBT-* entries (database schema contracts) — Data model specifications with fields, relationships, indexes, constraints, tied to API- accessors and BR- rules
  • Screen-to-API validation matrix — Verification showing every SCR-* has supporting API-* and every UJ-* step can be completed via API calls
  • API-to-Data validation matrix — Verification showing every API-* response field maps to DBT-* and every DBT-* is used by at least one API-*

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.
