feature-design-assistant is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from vadimcomanescu/codex-skills. It costs 36 tokens per session (290 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided process for turning a feature idea into a design document and implementation plan. It uses questions, repository review, solution options, risks, testing plans, and acceptance criteria.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when planning a new feature, designing architecture, or making a major codebase change.
Why use it?
It helps turn vague ideas into work that developers can implement and evaluate. It also keeps the scope, exclusions, and trade-offs visible.

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

feature-design-assistant 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 1mo 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

Feature Design Assistant

Turn ideas into implementable specs with clear scope, risks, and acceptance criteria.

Workflow

  1. Context: skim the repo for patterns, modules, and recent changes.
  2. Discovery: ask up to 4 questions per round.
  3. Design: propose a solution with trade-offs.
  4. Spec: write a short design doc with sections below.

Discovery Questions (examples)

  • Goal and primary users?
  • Scope and timeline constraints?
  • Which layers are touched (data, API, UI, infra)?
  • Quality bar (performance, security, reliability)?
  • Non-goals / out-of-scope?

Design Doc Template

  • Problem
  • Goals / Non-goals
  • Proposed solution (components, data flow)
  • Alternatives (and why rejected)
  • Risks / Open questions
  • Testing / rollout plan
  • Acceptance criteria

Guardrails

  • Keep scope tight; call out what is explicitly excluded.
  • Prefer existing patterns unless the user asks to change architecture.
  • If the change is large, propose a phased rollout.

References

  • Extended examples: references/examples.md
Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
