What it does
Ss Spec is an agent skill from Serial-Studio/Serial-Studio. Phase 1 of Serial Studio's spec-driven workflow: capture WHAT a feature must do and WHY, with no implementation detail. Use to start any non-trivial or multi-file feature — "spec this out", "write a spec", "start a feature", "let's spec-drive X". Produces doc/claude/specs/NNNN-slug/spec.md and gates on human approval before /ss-plan.
Its SKILL.md is about 770 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Development, covering Spec-driven development and PRD writing. The repository describes itself as: Open-source telemetry dashboard. Supports UART, BLE, MQTT, Modbus, CAN Bus and more.
When your agent uses it
- Start any non-trivial
- Multi-file feature — spec this out
- Start a feature
- Lets spec-drive X
Example prompts
- “spec this out”
- “write a spec”
- “start a feature”
- “/ss-spec”
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Pick the number and slug. The next number is max(existing) + 1, zero-padded to four
- Ground yourself first. Skim the relevant doc/claude/ sub-doc(s) for the area so the
- Create the directory and copy the template
- Write the spec into every section: Problem/Motivation, Goals, Non-Goals, Requirements
- Resolve ambiguity before finishing. Where a requirement is genuinely the maintainer's
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 34c87a4. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
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.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Ss Spec loads about 766 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 326 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.
Safety
Auto-check passed
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.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 326 words (~766 tokens).
“Capture the WHAT and the WHY. No file paths, class names, signal wiring, or algorithm choices — those belong to /ss-plan. A spec that leaks implementation pre-commits the design before it has been reviewed. See doc/claude/spec-driven.md for the full workflow…”

How do I install Ss Spec in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add Serial-Studio/Serial-Studio --skill ss-spec -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/ss-spec in Serial-Studio/Serial-Studio) into .claude/skills/ss-spec in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Ss Spec in Codex?
Run `npx skills add Serial-Studio/Serial-Studio --skill ss-spec -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/ss-spec in Serial-Studio/Serial-Studio) into .agents/skills/ss-spec in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Ss Spec in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add Serial-Studio/Serial-Studio --skill ss-spec -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/ss-spec, .gemini/skills/ss-spec, .github/skills/ss-spec and .opencode/skills/ss-spec in your project.
What does Ss Spec need to run?
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Ss Spec is instructions for the agent only.
Does Ss Spec access the network?
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.
Is Ss Spec safe to install?
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.

Ss Spec has a licence file (the repository's licence) that doesn't match a standard licence. Read it on GitHub before reusing the skill.
How many tokens does Ss Spec use?
About 766 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 3.1k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
