codd-generate

codd-generate is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from yohey-w/codd-dev. It costs 54 tokens per session (1,351 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A staged design-document generator for a new project. It turns prepared requirements into related design documents in dependency order, with checks and a human review between stages.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after project initialization and requirements preparation to create requirement, system, and detailed design documents one wave at a time.
Why use it?
It helps prevent later design documents from being created before earlier decisions have been checked. It also checks document metadata and refreshes the dependency graph.

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

codd-generate 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.

CoDD Generate

Generate CoDD design documents one wave at a time, validate their frontmatter, refresh the dependency graph, and stop for human approval before advancing to the next wave.

This is for greenfield projects (requirements → design). For brownfield projects (existing code → design), use /codd-restore instead.

Usage

Use this skill after codd init and after requirement documents are ready. Generate only one wave at a time. Never auto-run the next wave without a human decision.

If you have an existing codebase with no requirements, use the brownfield flow instead:

  1. codd extract — reverse-engineer code structure
  2. codd plan --init — generate wave_config from extracted docs
  3. /codd-restore — reconstruct design docs from extracted facts

Wave Model

CoDD design generation follows dependency order. Documents in the same wave may be generated together, but later waves must wait until the previous wave is validated and reviewed.

  • Wave 1: requirement-only artifacts such as acceptance criteria and decisions
  • Wave 2: system-level design derived from requirements plus Wave 1 outputs
  • Wave 3: detailed design artifacts derived from approved system design
  • Wave 4+: later artifacts only after the previous wave is validated and approved

Auto Wave Config

Since v0.2.0a4, codd generate automatically generates wave_config from requirement documents if it's missing from codd.yaml. You no longer need to run codd plan --init manually before generating. The flow is:

  1. Write requirements in any format (plain text, markdown, etc.) and import with codd init --requirements <file> — CoDD adds frontmatter automatically
  2. Run codd generate --wave 2 — wave_config is auto-generated from requirements
  3. Design docs are generated in the correct dependency order

This means the only human input is the requirements. Everything else — wave_config, frontmatter, dependency declarations — is derived automatically.

Prerequisite Checks

Before every generation run, verify these conditions:

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.
