spec-compliance

spec-compliance is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from paruff/uFawkesAI. It costs 23 tokens per session (463 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A check that compares a build and its supporting files with a written specification. It reviews both required behaviour and non-functional requirements such as performance, scaling, availability, and security.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to compare specification.md with code, manifests, and pipelines, then record unmet requirements and deviations.
Why use it?
It exposes missing, incomplete, or extra implementation work before the build is accepted.

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-compliance 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.

What it actually says

Skill: Specification Compliance Validation

Load trigger: "load spec-compliance skill" > DORA: Cap 1 (AI Policy) Token cost: Low

Purpose

Verify that the build output satisfies the specification.

Responsibilities

  • Compare implementation to functional requirements
  • Compare implementation to non-functional requirements
  • Identify missing or incomplete features
  • Identify deviations from the specification

Inputs

  • specification.md
  • Build output (code, manifests, pipelines)

Outputs

  • spec-compliance.json

Validation Rules

Functional Requirements

  • Each functional requirement has a corresponding implementation
  • Implementation matches the requirement's intent
  • No extra features added without spec justification
  • Edge cases from spec are handled

Non-Functional Requirements

  • Performance requirements met (response times, throughput)
  • Scalability requirements addressed
  • Availability requirements addressed
  • Security requirements implemented

Completeness

  • No requirements skipped
  • No partial implementations
  • No placeholder or stub implementations left in place

Deviation Tracking

  • Any deviation from spec is documented
  • Deviation has justification
  • Deviation does not violate core requirements

Output Format

{
  "skill": "spec-compliance",
  "status": "pass | fail",
  "requirements": [
    {
      "id": "REQ-001",
      "description": "Requirement description",
      "status": "pass | fail | partial",
      "implementation": "How it was implemented",
      "notes": "Any deviations or issues"
    }
  ],
  "missing": [],
  "deviations": []
}

Success Criteria

  • Build output fully satisfies the specification
  • All requirements accounted for
  • Deviations documented and justified

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.

spec-compliance is a skill published in the GitHub repository paruff/uFawkesAI (2 stars, last pushed 19d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 23 tokens to every session and 463 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
