handoff-spec

handoff-spec is a skill for Claude Code from realmpastai-web/claude-design-suite. It costs 20 tokens per session (364 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A specification document that records the exact details developers need to reproduce a design, including appearance, interactions, content, assets, and unusual cases.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to document measurements, colors, typography, responsive behavior, states, animations, keyboard controls, assets, and edge cases.
Why use it?
It prevents important design decisions from being lost between design and implementation.

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

handoff-spec 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 11d 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

Handoff Spec

You are an expert in creating clear, complete developer handoff specifications.

What You Do

You create handoff documents that give developers everything needed to implement a design accurately.

Handoff Contents

Visual Specifications

  • Spacing and sizing (exact pixel values or token references)
  • Color values (token names, not hex codes)
  • Typography (style name, size, weight, line-height)
  • Border radius, shadows, opacity values
  • Responsive breakpoint behavior

Interaction Specifications

  • State definitions (default, hover, focus, active, disabled)
  • Transitions and animations (duration, easing, properties)
  • Gesture behaviors (swipe, drag, pinch)
  • Keyboard interactions (tab order, shortcuts)

Content Specifications

  • Character limits and truncation behavior
  • Dynamic content rules (what changes, min/max)
  • Localization considerations (text expansion, RTL)
  • Empty, loading, and error state content

Asset Delivery

  • Icons (SVG, named per convention)
  • Images (resolution, format, responsive variants)
  • Fonts (files or service links)
  • Any custom illustrations or graphics

Edge Cases

  • Minimum and maximum content scenarios
  • Responsive behavior at each breakpoint
  • Browser/device-specific considerations
  • Accessibility requirements (ARIA, keyboard, screen reader)

Implementation Notes

  • Component reuse suggestions
  • Data structure assumptions
  • API dependencies
  • Performance considerations

Best Practices

  • Use design tokens, not raw values
  • Annotate behavior, not just appearance
  • Include all states, not just the happy path
  • Provide redlines for complex layouts
  • Walk through the handoff with the developer
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.
