codexspec:checklist

codexspec:checklist is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Zts0hg/codexspec. It costs 27 tokens per session (1,320 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A generator for checklists that test whether software requirements are complete, clear, and consistent.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review product requirements, specifications, or change requests and turn quality standards into concrete checks.
Why use it?
It helps catch missing details and conflicting expectations before development begins. It can also use the project's documented quality rules when those rules exist.

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

codexspec:checklist 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 3d 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.

Requirements Quality Checklist Generator

Constitution Compliance (MANDATORY)

Before generating checklists:

  1. Check for Constitution File: Look for .codexspec/memory/constitution.md
  2. If Constitution Exists:
    • Load and read quality standards and project principles
    • Use constitution quality standards as baseline for checklist items
    • Include constitution-specific checklist items where relevant
  3. If No Constitution Exists: Use general best practices for requirements quality

Language Preference

Read .codexspec/config.yml. Two independent language controls apply (each falls back to language.output, then English):

  • Interaction language (language.interaction): language for all conversation with the user — questions, explanations, status messages, and codexspec CLI terminal output.
  • Document language (language.document): language for generated artifact files (requirements/spec/plan/tasks).

Converse in the interaction language and author artifacts in the document language. Apply the project's translation standard to both: translate by meaning (not word-for-word), keep English for terms with no good native equivalent, and write as if originally in that language.

Checklist Purpose: "Unit Tests for Requirements"

CRITICAL CONCEPT: Checklists are UNIT TESTS FOR REQUIREMENTS WRITING - they validate the quality, clarity, and completeness of requirements.

NOT for verification/testing:

  • ❌ NOT "Verify the button clicks correctly"
  • ❌ NOT "Test error handling works"
  • ❌ NOT "Confirm the API returns 200"

FOR requirements quality validation:

  • ✅ "Are visual hierarchy requirements defined for all card types?" (completeness)
  • ✅ "Is 'prominent display' quantified with specific sizing/positioning?" (clarity)
  • ✅ "Are hover state requirements consistent across all interactive elements?" (consistency)
  • ✅ "Are accessibility requirements defined for keyboard navigation?" (coverage)

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.
