spec-create

spec-create is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from maurigre/mgr-method. It costs 137 tokens per session (2,564 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A specification workflow for evolving a project that has already been initialized. It turns a feature, bug-fix, or refactoring brief into requirements, a technical design, and a task plan, with approval checkpoints.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan changes to an existing project, review the proposed requirements and design, and break approved work into implementation tasks.
Why use it?
It helps prevent implementation from starting before the requirements and design are agreed. It also organizes the handoff to implementation after approval.

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

spec-create 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 3d 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.

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.
