update-reports

update-reports is a skill for Claude Code from voro6yov/spec-driven-development. It costs 61 tokens per session (540 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A catalogue of data formats for reports produced when specifications change across a software project. The reports describe changes in domain models, application services, and operations so other tools can process them.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when building or maintaining tools that detect specification changes and pass domain, application, or operations reports to other project layers.
Why use it?
It gives different parts of a project a shared structure for describing changes and their effects. This helps downstream tools understand what needs updating across layers.

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

update-reports 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 12d 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

Update Reports (spec-core)

The spec-update detector reports are the data contracts of the cross-layer update cascade that spec-core:update-specs orchestrates. Each layer's detector produces one; downstream layers parse them by these schemas. They are homed here in spec-core — next to the orchestrator — because they are consumed across plugin boundaries (a domain-diagram diff drives persistence, application, REST API, and messaging; the application-service and ops diffs drive REST API and messaging).

Each schema is a supporting file in a sibling folder; Read it by path. Only this index is auto-loaded by frontmatter — the per-layer docs are not.

Schema Path Produced by Describes
domain domain/index.md domain-spec:updates-detector <stem>.domain/updates.md — the class-grouped domain-diagram diff + stereotype→category footer
application-axis application/index.md application-spec:{commands,queries}-updates-detector <stem>.application/{commands,queries}-updates.md — the application-service diagram diff
ops ops/index.md application-spec:ops-updates-detector <stem>.application/ops-updates.md — the per-<op-name> ops-service diagram diff

Resolution. A consumer that auto-loads spec-core:update-reports via frontmatter resolves <update_reports_dir> as the directory containing this SKILL.md (its loaded context reveals its location), then Reads <update_reports_dir>/<layer>/index.md. Hard-fail on a missing path; never skip silently.

Not homed here. Each layer's own code-update report (<stem>.persistence/updates.md, <stem>.application/updates.md, <stem>.rest-api/updates.md, <stem>.messaging/updates.md) — the ## Affected Artifacts dispatch schema each plugin's update-code flow consumes — remains a plugin-private supporting file under that plugin's own patterns umbrella. Only the cross-consumed detector schemas live here.

Files

What ships with it

3 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.
