convert-request-to-story

convert-request-to-story is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from usefulmove/enso. It costs 44 tokens per session (1,158 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A request-clarification workflow that turns vague instructions into separate, well-defined Enso stories with acceptance criteria and a verification plan.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for requests such as fixing a bug, adding validation, refactoring a system, or implementing OAuth when the desired outcome is not clearly stated.
Why use it?
It removes uncertainty about what should be built, what is in scope, and how to check the result.

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

convert-request-to-story 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 10d 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 — 140 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

When to Use

Load this skill automatically when a user request exhibits ANY of these patterns:

  • No explicit acceptance criteria: "Fix the bug" / "Add validation" / "Make it faster"
  • No scope boundaries: "Refactor the auth system" / "Clean up the codebase"
  • No verification plan: "Implement OAuth" / "Set up CI"
  • Imperative, not declarative: "Do X" instead of "X should work like Y"
  • Open-ended goals: "Improve the API" / "Make the dashboard look better"
  • Multiple unrelated tasks in one request

This skill is a workflow skill. Run it, then follow its output.


Workflow

Step 1: Decompose

Restate the user's intent. Break multi-part requests into atomic tasks. Create a separate story for each.

If the request contains multiple tasks:

Task 1: Implement Google OAuth login
Task 2: Add session timeout logic
Task 3: Write tests for auth flow

→ Create 3 stories. Do not combine them.

Step 2: Transform Each Task Into a Story

For each atomic task, fill out the enso story template by asking clarifying questions or inferring from context:

What to Ask the User
Vague Request Questions to Ask
"Fix the bug" "What is the error message? What file or page triggers it? What should happen instead?"
"Add validation" "On which input fields? What are the valid vs invalid values? Should errors stop submission or just warn?"
"Refactor X" "Why does X need refactoring? What tests should pass before and after? What behavior must NOT change?"
"Make it faster" "Which operation is slow? What speedup is acceptable? What's the current benchmark?"
"Implement Y" "What does Y do? Who uses it? What's the input/output contract? Are there existing examples to follow?"
What to Infer From Context

Some answers come from the codebase, not the user:

  • Existing style → match it
  • Existing test patterns → follow them
  • Existing architecture → grow incrementally
  • Build/test commands → read package.json, Makefile, CI config, or CLAUDE.md

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.
