vibe-spec-vs-code-audit

vibe-spec-vs-code-audit is a skill for Claude Code from mracal/vibe-engineering. It costs 34 tokens per session (485 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of vibe-spec-vs-code-audit, MIT.

A review skill that compares a written software specification with the code meant to implement it, then records differences between them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a specification is claimed to be implemented, or when you need to check whether code still follows a design document.
Why use it?
It finds cases where requirements and implementation have drifted apart after development or refactoring.

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-spec-vs-code-audit 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.

What it actually says

vibe-spec-vs-code-audit

Specs drift from code. Code drifts from specs. This skill catches the gaps.

When to Use This Skill

  • Implementation of a spec/design doc is claimed complete
  • After a major refactor that should still conform to a spec
  • During periodic compliance checks
  • When debugging unexpected behavior (maybe the code doesn't match the spec)

When NOT to Use This Skill

  • No spec or design doc exists (nothing to compare against)
  • The spec is explicitly marked as aspirational/future
  • Code was intentionally diverged with documented reasons

Steps

  1. Identify the spec — Find the specification document (design doc, PRD section, API spec, etc.)

  2. Identify the implementation — Find the code files that implement this spec

  3. Line-by-line comparison — For each requirement/section in the spec:

    • Find the corresponding code
    • Check: Does the code match the spec exactly?
    • If divergent: Record as a GAP
  4. Classify each gap:

    • ID: GAP-[section]-[number] (e.g., GAP-AUTH-001)
    • Type: Missing (spec says X, code has nothing) / Incorrect (spec says X, code does Y) / Extra (code has X, spec doesn't mention it)
    • Severity: Critical (breaks core functionality) / High (wrong behavior) / Medium (incomplete) / Low (cosmetic)
  5. Report:

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.
