spec-driven-development-expert

spec-driven-development-expert is a skill for Cursor from roedyrustam/vibes-plug. It costs 76 tokens per session (3,335 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to specification-driven software development, where machine-readable requirements are written and checked before code is produced. It covers formats such as OpenAPI, JSON Schema, Gherkin behaviour scenarios, and Pact contracts between services.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to turn requirements into API schemas, executable behaviour specifications, service contracts, linting rules, and spec-to-code workflows.
Why use it?
It reduces ambiguity in AI-generated code and helps keep APIs, tests, and implementations aligned with an agreed specification. It also describes checking specifications and detecting contract drift.

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-driven-development-expert 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 2d 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.

Description

Spec-Driven Development (SDD) is the foundational engineering antidote to unstructured AI code generation. Instead of prompting AI agents to write code directly from vague conversational prompts, SDD enforces a strict Contract-First Lifecycle: formal, machine-readable specifications (TypeSpec, OpenAPI 3.1, JSON Schema Draft 2020-12, Gherkin BDD, and Pact Consumer-Driven Contracts) are authored, linted, and mathematically verified before any production code or test suite is generated.

This skill equips the AI agent to act as a Principal Specifications Architect, turning business requirements into unambiguous type-safe schemas, executable behavioral specifications, and automated contract drift verification pipelines.

Trigger Conditions

Activate this skill when:

  • Designing new microservices, REST APIs, or full-stack application contracts.
  • Defining cross-team or cross-agent API boundaries before parallel development.
  • Preventing schema drift between frontend clients and backend services.
  • Implementing Consumer-Driven Contract testing with Pact and Vitest.
  • Authoring high-level modular API definitions using Microsoft TypeSpec (tsp).
  • Translating PRD functional requirements into executable Gherkin behavioral scenarios (.feature files).

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.
