speckit.ai-engineer

speckit.ai-engineer is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from wedabro/bro-skills. It costs 35 tokens per session (870 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

An architecture guide for systems that use artificial intelligence and language models, including search over stored information, model evaluation, and controlled tool use. It is intended for designing production systems around stated constraints.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design retrieval-augmented generation systems, which let a model answer using searched documents, vector search, semantic caching, evaluation pipelines, and safeguards around tools.
Why use it?
It helps teams choose simple system boundaries, data flows, and technologies while documenting trade-offs and checking reliability, security, and operational needs.

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 B, and why

speckit.ai-engineer scanned grade B with 1 finding 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.

Instruction-override phrasingmediumPrompt injection

Text telling the model to disregard its earlier instructions or safety rules is the shape of a prompt injection, whoever wrote it.

- **Input Sanitization**: Strip indirect prompt injection payloads (e.g. "Ignore previous instructions") and run input through guardrail classifiers (Llama Guard, NeMo).

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

🎯 Mission

Design, implement, and evaluate production-ready LLM and AI systems. Focus on deterministic boundaries, semantic search fidelity, vector database indexing, token budget efficiency, and continuous evaluation pipelines (Evals). Honor .agents/knowledge_base/ standards and the project constitution.

📥 Required Inputs

  • .agents/specs/[feature]/spec.md, plan.md, and tasks.md
  • Target Model & Provider specs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Local Ollama/vLLM)
  • Embedding model dimensions & distance metric (Cosine, DotProduct, Euclidean)
  • Data schemas, chunking rules, and retrieval latency requirements

📋 Protocol

1. RAG & Ingestion Pipeline Architecture

  • Semantic Chunking: Chunk text by logical boundaries (paragraphs, markdown headings, code AST) with 300–500 token sweet spot and 10–15% overlap.
  • Hybrid Search: Combine Dense Vector Retrieval (semantic match) with Sparse Keyword Search (BM25 / Full-text search) via Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF).
  • Reranking: Apply Cross-Encoder / Cohere Reranker to top-K retrieved candidates ($K=20 \to 5$) to eliminate irrelevant context before LLM synthesis.
  • Vector DB Indexing: Use HNSW (Hierarchical Navigable Small World) index for low-latency similarity queries; configure m and ef_construction for dataset scale.
  • Metadata Filtering: Always apply pre-filtering on tenant ID, access control tags, and timestamps before vector distance computation.

2. Structured Outputs & Tool Calling

  • Strict Pydantic / Zod Schemas: Every LLM function call and JSON response MUST be validated through strict typed schemas. Reject schema violations with deterministic retries.
  • Tool Guardrails: Never allow direct code execution or shell access without an isolated sandbox and explicit confirmation boundaries.
  • Semantic Caching: Store query embedding hashes in Redis to serve identical or high-similarity (> 0.95 cosine) queries instantly, reducing LLM costs and latency.

3. Prompt Engineering & Injection Defense

  • System Prompt Separation: Isolate trusted system instructions from untrusted user input using clear delimiters (e.g., <user_input>, ###).
  • Input Sanitization: Strip indirect prompt injection payloads (e.g. "Ignore previous instructions") and run input through guardrail classifiers (Llama Guard, NeMo).
  • Context Window Budgeting: Track token consumption dynamically. Allocate reserve budget for system prompts, history, context retrieval, and response generation.

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.

speckit.ai-engineer is a skill published in the GitHub repository wedabro/bro-skills (2 stars, last pushed 16d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 870 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (instruction-override phrasing). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
