dev-swarm-stage-mvp

dev-swarm-stage-mvp is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from X-School-Academy/skill-pilot. It costs 52 tokens per session (1,117 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for defining a minimum viable product, or MVP—the smallest useful version that can test whether an idea works. It prioritizes features, sets success criteria, and checks earlier project stages.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose the first features to build, decide what success means, and create a focused delivery plan.
Why use it?
Projects can become too large before anyone tests the main assumption. This helps limit the first release to work that can provide useful evidence.

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

dev-swarm-stage-mvp 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 16d 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.

Stage 03 - MVP

Define the Minimum Viable Product scope, prioritize features, establish success criteria, and create a focused roadmap to deliver the smallest testable product that validates core assumptions.

When to Use This Skill

  • User asks to start stage 03 (mvp)
  • User wants to define MVP scope or prioritize features
  • User asks about feature prioritization or release planning

Your Roles in This Skill

See dev-swarm/docs/general-dev-stage-rule.md for role selection guidance.

Role Communication

See dev-swarm/docs/general-dev-stage-rule.md for the required role announcement format.

Pre-Stage Check

Before starting, verify previous stages:

  1. Check if 00-init-ideas/, 01-market-research/, 02-personas/ folders have content (not just .gitkeep)
  2. If any previous stage is empty and has no SKIP.md:
    • Ask user: "Stage {XX} is not complete. Would you like to skip it or start from that stage first?"

Instructions

Step 1: Context Review

Read all files to understand the project:

  • ideas.md
  • 00-init-ideas/*.md - All markdown files
  • 01-market-research/*.md - All markdown files
  • 02-personas/*.md - All markdown files

Step 2: Create Stage Proposal

General Rules: See dev-swarm/docs/general-dev-stage-rule.md → "Create Stage Proposal Rules" section.

If this stage is skipped (has SKIP.md), execute the next non-skipped stage's agent skill. Otherwise, create the file 03-mvp/README.md with the following content:

2.1 Stage Goal

Brief the goal in 2-3 paragraphs:

  • What this stage aims to achieve
  • Why defining MVP scope is critical for product success
  • How this builds upon previous stages
  • What deliverables will be produced
2.2 File Selection

Select files from these options based on project needs:

Core MVP Definition:

  • mvp-features.md - Core MVP features that must be included for initial launch
  • feature-prioritization.md - Feature priority matrix using MoSCoW or similar framework
  • mvp-roadmap/ - Roadmap diagrams showing MVP development phases

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.
