vibe-gap-analysis

vibe-gap-analysis is a skill for Claude Code from mracal/vibe-engineering. It costs 36 tokens per session (1,358 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of vibe-gap-analysis, MIT.

A comparison of a project's written specifications and architecture against its actual code. It can be a quick structural check or a deeper audit across 17 areas.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before launching, when taking over a codebase, after a major refactor, or during a readiness review. It can inspect the whole project or selected audit areas.
Why use it?
It reveals missing, incomplete, or lost work before release or after a major refactor. It gives a clearer answer to whether the project is ready for production.

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

vibe-gap-analysis 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.

vibe-gap-analysis

Cynical gap analysis comparing specs/architecture to actual implementation. Three modes from fast to exhaustive. Works with any project that has architecture docs and implementation code.

When to Use This Skill

  • Before launching to production
  • After a major refactor to verify nothing was lost
  • When inheriting a codebase and need to assess completeness
  • Periodic production readiness audits
  • When stakeholders ask "how done are we?"

When NOT to Use This Skill

  • Greenfield projects with no specs yet (write specs first)
  • Simple bug fixes or feature additions
  • Frontend-only or design-only reviews

Usage

/vibe-gap-analysis              # Quick static (5 structural dimensions)
/vibe-gap-analysis --deep       # Full 17-dimension audit with parallel agents
/vibe-gap-analysis --dim N      # Single dimension deep-dive (1-17)
/vibe-gap-analysis --dim 1,4,9  # Multiple specific dimensions

Modes

Quick Static (default)

Fast, single-agent structural audit. No subagents dispatched.

  1. Read architecture/design docs in docs/ or similar
  2. Read implementation code in src/, internal/, lib/ etc.
  3. Compare implementation against architecture doc section by section
  4. Cover dimensions 1-5 (structural):
    • Dim 1: Spec Compliance — check specs against implementation
    • Dim 2: Backend Code Quality — test coverage, error handling, lint issues
    • Dim 3: Frontend Completeness — UI components, routes, test coverage
    • Dim 4: Deployment & Ops — deploy scripts, CI/CD, Docker, TLS
    • Dim 5: Architecture Integrity — design pattern compliance, component boundaries
  5. Produce structured gap report: component, expected status, actual status, % complete, action items
  6. Save to docs/plans/gap-analysis-$(date +%Y%m%d).md
  7. Commit with docs: gap analysis $(date +%Y%m%d)

Deep (--deep)

Full 17-dimension audit using parallel subagents. Exhaustive production readiness assessment.

Dispatch parallel agents (model: sonnet) in 3 rounds:

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.
