requirement-enhancerIteratively enhance user requirements into clear, complete, actionable specifications through analysis and clarification.
Requirement Enhancer is an agent skill from ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE. Iteratively enhance user requirements into clear, complete, actionable specifications through analysis and clarification. Use when: (1) Users provide initial requirements that need refinement, (2) Requirements are vague, incomplete, or ambiguous, (3) Creating formal specifications from informal descriptions, (4) Identifying missing constraints, edge cases, or acceptance criteria, (5) Clarifying assumptions and implicit dependencies, or (6) Preparing requirements for design, implementation, or verification…
Its SKILL.md is about 2.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/analysis_framework.md` and `references/examples.md`).
It sits in Product & Project Management, covering User stories and Requirements gathering. 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.
6 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 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.
Requirement Enhancer loads about 2.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~7.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 155 tokens; SKILL.md has 775 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.

Analyze the requirement across multiple dimensions:
Clarity: Identify vague terms, ambiguous language, undefined metrics Completeness: Find missing functional/non-functional requirements, edge cases Consistency: Detect conflicts, contradictions, terminology issues Feasibility: Note technical concerns, resource constraints Testability: Check for measurable acceptance criteria
Categorize issues by severity:
🔴 Critical: Core functionality undefined, conflicting requirements 🟡 Important: Missing constraints, unclear scope, vague metrics 🟢 Minor: Terminology inconsistencies, formatting issues
Ask targeted clarification questions:
For ambiguity: "What exactly does [vague term] mean in measurable terms?" For incompleteness: "What should happen when [edge case]?" For conflicts: "How do requirements X and Y work together?" For missing details: "What are the [performance/security/usability] requirements?"
Use the AskUserQuestion tool to present questions clearly.
Based on user answers:
Add standard practices when applicable:
For authentication: Password requirements, session management, rate limiting For APIs: Error codes, versioning, rate limits, documentation For data processing: Validation, error handling, performance bounds For web apps: Browser compatibility, accessibility, security (OWASP)
Label enrichments as [STANDARD PRACTICE] or [BEST PRACTICE].
Organize enhanced requirement in clear sections:
## [Requirement Name]
### Overview
[Brief description preserving original intent]
### Functional Requirements
[Detailed functional requirements with IDs]
### Non-Functional Requirements
[Performance, security, usability, etc.]
### Acceptance Criteria
[Testable criteria in Given/When/Then format]
### Assumptions
[Explicit list of assumptions with labels]
### Edge Cases
[Identified edge cases and expected behavior]
### Constraints
[Technical, business, regulatory constraints]
### Out of Scope
[Explicitly excluded items]For detailed analysis dimensions and patterns, see analysis_framework.md.
Key areas to analyze:
Vague: "The system should be fast" Enhanced: "The system MUST respond within 200ms for 95% of requests"
Vague: "The system should support users" Enhanced: "The system MUST support at least 10,000 concurrent users"
Vague: "Users can edit documents" Enhanced: "Authenticated users with 'Editor' role can modify content of documents they own"
Vague: "Backup data regularly" Enhanced: "Perform incremental backups every 6 hours, full backups daily at 2 AM UTC"
Vague: "If user is inactive, log them out" Enhanced: "After 30 min inactivity, warn user. After 35 min total, save work and log out"

Iteratively enhance user requirements into clear, complete, actionable specifications through analysis and clarification. Requirement Enhancer is an agent skill from ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE. Iteratively enhance user requirements into clear, complete, actionable specifications through analysis and clarification.
Requirement Enhancer fits situations like: users provide initial requirements that need refinement; requirements are vague; creating formal specifications from informal descriptions; identifying missing constraints.
Run `npx skills add ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE --skill requirement-enhancer -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/requirement-enhancer in ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE) into .claude/skills/requirement-enhancer in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE --skill requirement-enhancer -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/requirement-enhancer in ArabelaTso/Skills-4-SE) into .agents/skills/requirement-enhancer 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 requirement-enhancer -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/requirement-enhancer, .gemini/skills/requirement-enhancer, .github/skills/requirement-enhancer and .opencode/skills/requirement-enhancer in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Requirement Enhancer 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.
Requirement Enhancer 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 2.2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 8.8k 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 5.3k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Requirement Enhancer: User Story Writer (deanpeters/Product-Manager-Skills, 7.2k stars), PRD Development (deanpeters/Product-Manager-Skills, 7.2k stars), Feature Forge (Jeffallan/claude-skills, 12k stars) and Specification (citypaul/.dotfiles, 740 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
