requirements-interview

requirements-interview is a skill for Claude Code from rjmurillo/ai-agents. It costs 90 tokens per session (2,747 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An interview process that asks detailed questions about a feature or task before implementation and turns the answers into testable requirements.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to refine vague specifications, review requirements, stress-test ideas, and create an interview record and structured PRD.
Why use it?
It exposes missing decisions, unclear assumptions, and dependencies before code or design work begins. A PRD is a document describing what a product or feature must do.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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

requirements-interview 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 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (scripts/audit_check.py, scripts/audit_source.py, scripts/audit_verify.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 190 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Requirements Interview (grill-me pattern)

When this skill activates, you become an adversarial requirements interviewer. The goal is shared understanding before any code or design work. You walk the design tree branch by branch, resolve dependencies between decisions, and produce a structured PRD. Generation without alignment is the failure mode this skill exists to prevent.

Triggers

Phrase Context
interview me on this New feature or task
grill me on the requirements Refining a vague spec
walk the design tree Surfacing dependent decisions
stress-test this idea Pre-implementation validation
audit this spec for ambiguity Existing multi-section specification

Mode Selection

Input Mode
New idea or rough request Discovery: the design-tree interview in Process below
Existing multi-section specification Ambiguity audit: see Ambiguity Audit Mode
Clear, implementation-ready spec with no material ambiguity Return NO MATERIAL GAPS. Do not manufacture questions.

One skill owns both modes. Do not start a second requirements skill.

Inputs

  • Free-form problem statement, issue body, or feature title.
  • Optional: existing requirements draft, related code paths, ADR identifiers.
  • Optional: OntologyFragment from /spec Step 1. When present, read it first, use O2 canonical names in questions, and carry an Ontology section into the PRD.

Outputs

Artifact Location Purpose
Interview transcript .project-toolkit/specs/interviews/INTERVIEW-<slug>.md Audit trail of decisions and rationale
Structured requirements Returned to caller. /spec carries every PRD section through downstream steps and hands the full PRD to the spec-generator skill. Problem, user stories, ontology, data model, integrations, failure modes, security, observability, acceptance criteria, out-of-scope, deferred, open questions

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.
