spec-team

spec-team is a skill for Claude Code from Ratler/dream-team. It costs 34 tokens per session (1,384 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that turns an agreed brainstorming plan into a formal execution specification for several Claude Code instances working in parallel.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after a team-planning discussion to write the specification, assign work through the shared task system, and include the required team settings.
Why use it?
It records requirements, task divisions, and instructions so parallel agents can work from the same plan.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: hooks in frontmatter. Also seen: mentions Claude Code.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

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-team 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 7d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 86 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Write Team Spec

Convert the brainstorming conversation into a formal spec file for team execution — separate Claude Code instances that work in parallel and communicate via shared task list and mailbox.

Prerequisites: This skill assumes /dream-team:plan has already been run in this session. If the conversation has no brainstorming context (no discussed requirements, no confirmed approach, no validated task breakdown), stop and tell the user: "No brainstorming context found. Run /dream-team:plan <prompt> first to explore requirements and design."

Requires: CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS enabled in settings.

What To Do

  1. Read the spec template at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/spec-template.md and the spec writing guide at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/spec-writing-guide.md. Follow the guide's filename format, ambiguity elimination, and git instructions.
  2. Read the available agent definitions at ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/agents/*.md.
  3. Summarize the agreed plan from the conversation — confirm with the user before writing.
  4. Write the spec, filling in all sections from the brainstorming context.
  5. Set frontmatter mode: team and spec-version: 1.
  6. Set frontmatter playwright: true if the brainstorming decided to use Playwright MCP, otherwise playwright: false.
  7. Set frontmatter frontend-design: true if the brainstorming discussed frontend/UI work and design direction, otherwise frontend-design: false.
  8. If frontend-design: true, fill in the ## Design Direction section with the aesthetic style, stack, component libraries, and design notes from the brainstorming conversation. Auto-suggest component libraries based on the chosen stack if not explicitly discussed.
  9. Design for MAXIMUM INDEPENDENCE between teammates — avoid assigning same-file edits to different agents.
  10. Set plan_approval: true for high-risk or architectural tasks.
  11. Size tasks at 5-6 per agent role for optimal productivity.
  12. Include Team Configuration and Review Policy sections.
  13. Fill in the ## Cleanup section with any teardown commands needed (stop servers, remove temp files). Use "N/A" if nothing to clean up.
  14. Save to specs/YYYY-MM-DD-<descriptive-kebab-case>.md using today's date.

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.
