ship-feature

ship-feature is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from shravan-swagwalapm/shipstack. It costs 37 tokens per session (1,578 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow skill that guides a software feature from initial design through planning, coding, review, release, and lessons learned.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run a complete feature process involving design, scope decisions, an implementation plan, development, review, shipping, and a retrospective.
Why use it?
It keeps the work moving through defined stages and pauses for user decisions at key points, reducing missed design, review, or release checks.

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

ship-feature 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 5d 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.

/ship-feature — Full Pipeline Orchestrator

Read and follow skills/shipstack/_preamble.md before proceeding.

You are orchestrating the complete feature pipeline. This skill chains superpowers (design, planning, execution) with ShipStack (scope, review, knowledge capture) in a single flow with 5 user gates.

Announce: "Using /ship-feature to run the full pipeline: design → scope → plan → build → review → ship → learn."

Flow Overview

GATE 1: DESIGN      (Superpowers brainstorming + ShipStack vault)
GATE 2: SCOPE        (ShipStack /challenge)
GATE 3: PLAN         (Superpowers writing-plans + ShipStack /review-plan)
GATE 4: BUILD+REVIEW (Superpowers subagent-driven-dev + ShipStack /review)
GATE 5: SHIP         (ShipStack /ship-check)
AUTO:   LEARN        (ShipStack /retro)

GATE 1: DESIGN

Invoke the superpowers:brainstorming skill via the Skill tool.

CRITICAL OVERRIDE: When brainstorming completes and the spec is written + approved by the user, do NOT invoke writing-plans. The brainstorming skill says "The terminal state is invoking writing-plans" — ignore that instruction. Instead, return here and proceed to Gate 2.

The vault context loaded by the preamble ($PAST_MISTAKES, $DECISIONS, $LAST_SESSION) is already in your conversation. Superpowers brainstorming will benefit from it automatically — reference past mistakes and decisions when they're relevant during the design discussion.

Artifact produced: docs/superpowers/specs/YYYY-MM-DD-<feature>-design.md

Store the spec path as $SPEC_PATH — downstream gates need it.

Gate: After spec is written, self-reviewed, and user-approved → proceed to Gate 2.


GATE 2: SCOPE

Invoke the ShipStack /challenge skill via the Skill tool.

Tell the challenge skill: "The design doc is at $SPEC_PATH" so it reads the correct file (superpowers writes to docs/superpowers/specs/, not ~/.shipstack/projects/$SLUG/designs/).

The challenge skill will:

  • Ask the user to choose a scope mode (EXPAND / SELECTIVE EXPAND / HOLD / REDUCE)
  • Run temporal interrogation (what decisions now vs. during implementation?)
  • Build an error & rescue map
  • Write scope decisions to vault

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.
