nl-to-constraintsTransforms natural language requirements (user stories, verbal descriptions, business rules) into formal specifications and constraints.
Nl To Constraints is an agent skill from ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE. Transforms natural language requirements (user stories, verbal descriptions, business rules) into formal specifications and constraints. Use when converting informal requirements into structured, testable specifications with explicit constraints. Outputs in multiple formats including BDD-style Given-When-Then, JSON Schema, and structured plain text requirements documents.
Its SKILL.md is about 2.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files and assets (for example `assets/specification_schema.json` and `references/constraint_patterns.md`).
It sits in Product & Project Management, covering User stories and PRD writing. The repository describes itself as: A curated list of 180+ useful Claude Skills for Software Engineering and resources for customizing AI for SE workflows. The licence is Apache-2.0.
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4f38503. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are gherkin, json and markdown).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Nl To Constraints loads about 2.3k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 98 tokens; SKILL.md has 590 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

This skill enables you to:
Follow this process when converting natural language to specifications:
Read the natural language input carefully and:
Categorize each requirement by:
Use the constraint patterns in references/constraint_patterns.md to identify and classify constraints systematically.
For each identified constraint, extract:
Example:
Natural language: "Users must provide a valid email address when registering"
Extracted constraint:
Entity: User Registration
Category: Data
Severity: must
Formal expression: email MATCHES ^[a-zA-Z0-9._%+-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,}$
Validation method: Regex pattern matching on input
Error message: "Please enter a valid email address"Produce output in the requested format(s):
Structure test scenarios as:
Scenario: [Scenario name]
Given [precondition/context]
When [action or event]
Then [expected outcome]
And [additional expectations]Example:
Scenario: User registration with valid email
Given a new user on the registration page
When they enter email "user@example.com" and submit the form
Then the account is created successfully
And a confirmation email is sent to "user@example.com"
Scenario: User registration with invalid email
Given a new user on the registration page
When they enter email "invalid-email" and submit the form
Then an error message "Please enter a valid email address" is displayed
And the account is not createdUse the template in assets/specification_schema.json to structure output as:

# Requirements Specification: [Feature Name]
## Requirements
### REQ-001: User Registration [CRITICAL]
**Type**: Functional
**Description**: Users must be able to register with email and password
**Acceptance Criteria**:
- Email field accepts valid email formats
- Password must be at least 8 characters
- Confirmation email is sent upon successful registration
**Related Constraints**: CON-001, CON-002
## Constraints
### CON-001: Email Validation [MUST]
**Category**: Data Constraint
**Entity**: User.email
**Description**: Email must match valid email format
**Validation**:
- Pattern: ^[a-zA-Z0-9._%+-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,}$
- Method: Regex validation on input
- Error: "Please enter a valid email address"
## Test Scenarios
### TEST-001: Valid Registration
Given a new user on the registration page
When they enter email "user@example.com" and password "SecurePass123"
Then the account is created successfully
And a confirmation email is sentBefore delivering output:
When you encounter vague or ambiguous language:
Common ambiguity patterns (see references/constraint_patterns.md for complete list):
Example:
Natural language: "The system should process orders quickly"
Output:
⚠️ AMBIGUITY DETECTED
Requirement: Order Processing Performance
Issue: "quickly" is not quantified
Possible interpretations:
1. Process within 1 second (real-time requirement)
2. Process within 5 seconds (acceptable for web)
3. Process within 1 minute (batch-like processing)
Clarifying questions:
- What is the maximum acceptable processing time?
- What percentage of orders must meet this threshold?
- Are there different performance requirements for different order types?
Suggested constraint (pending clarification):
CON-XXX: Order processing time should be <= 5 seconds for 95% of ordersChoose output format(s) based on the use case:
When not specified, provide all three formats or ask which format is preferred.

Transforms natural language requirements (user stories, verbal descriptions, business rules) into formal specifications and constraints. Nl To Constraints is an agent skill from ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE. Transforms natural language requirements (user stories, verbal descriptions, business rules) into formal specifications and constraints.
Nl To Constraints fits situations like: converting informal requirements into structured; testable specifications with explicit constraints.
Run `npx skills add ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE --skill nl-to-constraints -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/nl-to-constraints in ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE) into .claude/skills/nl-to-constraints in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE --skill nl-to-constraints -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/nl-to-constraints in ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE) into .agents/skills/nl-to-constraints in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE --skill nl-to-constraints -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/nl-to-constraints, .gemini/skills/nl-to-constraints, .github/skills/nl-to-constraints and .opencode/skills/nl-to-constraints in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Nl To Constraints is instructions for the agent only.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Nl To Constraints is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 2.3k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 9.2k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 1.5k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Nl To Constraints: Ralph Tui Create Beads (subsy/ralph-tui, 2.5k stars), Ralph Tui Create Beads Rust (subsy/ralph-tui, 2.5k stars), Ralph Tui Create JSON (subsy/ralph-tui, 2.5k stars) and To Prd (ywwynm/EverythingDone, 144 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
