requirements-engineering

requirements-engineering is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zeeshanhanif/agentic-sdlc-kit. It costs 212 tokens per session (2,887 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A structured requirements-gathering workflow for the first stage of software development. It produces an SRS, or Software Requirements Specification, with numbered and testable requirements.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to interview stakeholders, enumerate functional and non-functional requirements, and create the reference document for later design and planning.
Why use it?
It turns broad feature ideas into a complete specification before architecture and interface design begin. It also prompts for standard details that users may forget, such as password recovery or session expiry.

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

requirements-engineering 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 5d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 237 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Requirements Engineering

This skill produces the traditional, structured requirements specification that sits at the very front of the SDLC — upstream of architecture and UX. It is deliberately a detail phase: its job is to capture every requirement comprehensively, so that the documents it produces become the single source of truth the design and planning skills downstream consume.

Two principles define it:

  1. Exhaustive enumeration, not transcription. When a capability area comes up, the skill does not merely record what the user mentions. It proactively proposes the full set of standard sub-requirements for that area and has the user confirm, extend, or remove them. "User authentication" is never one line — it expands into sign-up, sign-in, email verification, forgot password, reset password, change password, logout, session expiry, account lockout, rate limiting, and so on. The requirement-catalog.md reference is the engine for this. The same discipline applies to non-functional requirements.

  2. Structured and traditional. The output is a formal SRS in the ISO/IEC/IEEE 29148 (IEEE 830) lineage — numbered, uniquely-identified, testable requirements — not an agile backlog. Whatever the SRS calls a unit (function / feature) is fine; epic and feature slicing is deliberately deferred to the downstream implementation-planning skill. This skill owns the problem space, comprehensively.

Because a full requirements interview is long, the skill checkpoints its work incrementally and can resume after an interruption — see Phase 0 and references/checkpointing.md.

Inputs

This is the first skill in the pipeline, so it has no upstream document to consume — it elicits from the user. If the user has an existing brief, notes, or partial requirements, ingest them first and treat them as raw input to confirm and expand, not as finished requirements.

Outputs

Three files (three logical documents), all markdown, written to docs/.

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.
