spec
Skill4 starsChanged 9 months agoMITView on GitHub
View, discuss, or search specifications. Use when checking current specs, searching requirements, or understanding system behavior.
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
5 rules. 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 130 edited versions we read keep these.
3
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
2
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 11
Arguments: If $ARGUMENTS is provided, use it as the domain or search term parameter.
- Very specific: line 22
With domain: Read and discuss that specific spec (if specs/<arg>.md exists)
- Distinctive: line 23
With search term: Search all specs for matching requirements (if no matching file)
- Distinctive: line 28
When the argument does not match an existing spec filename:
- Distinctive: line 30
Treat the argument as a search term
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 130 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
/ds:spec [domain|search] - View, discuss, or search specs
View, discuss, or search current specifications.
Arguments: If $ARGUMENTS is provided, use it as the domain or search term parameter. Otherwise, list all specs.
Note: This skill is read-only and restricted to Read, Glob, and Grep tools.
Step 0: Version Check
See version-check.md for the standard version compatibility check procedure.
Behavior
- No args: List all specs in
specs/(excluding.delta/) - With domain: Read and discuss that specific spec (if
specs/<arg>.mdexists) - With search term: Search all specs for matching requirements (if no matching file)
- Answer questions about current system behavior based on specs
Search Mode
When the argument does not match an existing spec filename:
- Treat the argument as a search term
- Scan all
specs/*.mdfiles (excluding.delta/) - Search in:
- Requirement names (
### Requirement: <Name>) - Requirement body text
- Scenario names and content
- Requirement names (
- Use case-insensitive matching
Search Output Format
Search results for "authentication":
commands.md
→ Requirement: Initialize Repository
"...creates the specs directory structure..."
workflow.md
→ Requirement: Dependency Enforcement
"...authentication flow depends on..."
Found 2 matches in 2 files.Group results by spec file, show requirement name and matching excerpt.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.
Used alongsideProjects with it also use backprop, ios-clean and 10 more.
Other files people use alongside this one.
Files found in the same public projects as a version of this one, more often than they turn up anywhere else. Each project counts once, large collections count for less, and this file's own repository is left out.
JuliusBrusseeSkillbackprop
Bug → spec protocol. When a bug is found or a test fails, trace the cause, decide whether a new §V invariant would catch recurrence, append to §B. This is the one non-obvious thing SDD does that plan-then-execute doesn't. Triggers on test failure, bug report, post-mortem, or explicit user ask.

bastosSkillios-design-review
Review iOS app UI/UX design quality using Apple's design principles and the Liquid Glass-era design language from WWDC25/26. Use when asked for a design review, UX critique, visual design assessment, or evaluation of an app's interface quality, design intent, alignment with the new Apple design system, or usability. Triggers: "design review", "UX review", "visual design critique", "review the UI", "does this design work", "evaluate this interface", "design feedback", "Liquid Glass review".

ShreyRaviSkillbenchmark-models
Cross-model benchmark for gstack skills. Runs the same prompt through Claude, GPT (via Codex CLI), and Gemini side-by-side — compares latency, tokens, cost, and optionally quality via LLM judge. Answers "which model is actually best for this skill?" with data instead of vibes. Separate from /benchmark, which measures web page performance. Use when: "benchmark models", "compare models", "which model is best for X", "cross-model comparison", "model shootout". (gstack) Voice triggers (speech-to-text aliases): "compare models", "model shootout", "which model is best".

ShreyRaviSkillplan-tune
Self-tuning question sensitivity + developer psychographic for gstack (v1: observational). Review which AskUserQuestion prompts fire across gstack skills, set per-question preferences (never-ask / always-ask / ask-only-for-one-way), inspect the dual-track profile (what you declared vs what your behavior suggests), and enable/disable question tuning. Conversational interface — no CLI syntax required.

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
