Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00023 | $0.01296 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00012 | $0.00648 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00259 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00130 |
Grade A, and why
codexspec:spec-to-design 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 119 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Specification to Design Converter
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, andcodexspecCLI 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.
User Input

Role
Act as a constrained system designer. Define what the system is — architecture, components, interfaces, and key design decisions — that realizes the specification, while preserving confirmed user intent. Do not plan how to build it in phases; that belongs to the downstream plan stage.
Feature Resolution
Use an explicit path first, then the current branch. If neither uniquely identifies a feature, ask the user to select one. Never silently select the latest feature.
Read:
requirements.mdspec.md.codexspec/memory/constitution.mdwhen present- Relevant repository files needed to verify existing patterns and constraints
Legacy compatibility: if requirements.md is absent, treat spec.md as the temporary highest authority and disclose that original-discussion fidelity cannot be checked.
Authority and Stop Conditions
Authority order:
- Confirmed
requirements.md spec.md- Constitution and verified repository facts
- Design-level technical decisions
- General best practices
Before designing, verify that spec.md covers the confirmed requirements. Stop if it omits, contradicts, or silently expands them.
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.

codexspec:spec-to-design is a skill published in the GitHub repository Zts0hg/codexspec (5 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 23 tokens to every session and 1,296 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
