Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.
Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill
The requirements-engineering skill provides a framework for AI agents to systematically analyze, document, and manage project specifications. It enables agents to break down complex user needs into actionable technical tasks and maintain structured requirement artifacts throughout the development lifecycle.
When to use it
- Translating vague stakeholder requests into detailed functional and non-functional requirements.
- Generating comprehensive checklists to ensure all project constraints are met before coding begins.
- Updating documentation dynamically as project scope evolves during iterative development.
- Validating that proposed solutions align with initial business goals and technical standards.
Key capabilities
- Systematic requirement elicitation and analysis.
- Structured documentation of functional and non-functional specs.
- Task decomposition based on defined constraints.
- Iterative refinement of project scope and deliverables.
Example prompts
- "Analyze this user story and generate a detailed requirements document including acceptance criteria."
- "Break down the feature request for 'user authentication' into specific technical tasks and prerequisites."
- "Review our current project requirements against these new compliance regulations and suggest necessary updates."
Tips & gotchas
This skill is most effective when paired with clear initial context about the project domain. Ensure you provide sufficient background information on existing constraints, as the agent relies on this data to generate accurate and relevant engineering specifications.
