Hoyeon requirements workflow for Codex. An agent skill from team-attention/hoyeon.

  • Works in 5 steps: Read the canonical skill file above… → Follow the Runtime Surface -> Codex… → Keep durable state changes Bash-first… → …
  • The user invokes $hoyeon-specify
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Hoyeon Specify is an agent skill from team-attention/hoyeon. Hoyeon requirements workflow for Codex. Use when the user invokes "$hoyeon-specify" or wants to turn an unclear goal into structured requirements.md for Hoyeon. This adapter loads the canonical specify skill and follows its Codex runtime surface.

Its SKILL.md is about 670 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Requirements-first Harness — derive, verify, execute. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user invokes $hoyeon-specify
  • Wants to turn an unclear goal into structured requirements.md for Hoyeon

Example prompts

  • “$hoyeon-specify”
  • “/hoyeon-specify”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Read the canonical skill file above before executing the workflow.
  2. Follow the Runtime Surface -> Codex section in that file.
  3. Keep durable state changes Bash-first through hoyeon-cli.
  4. Do not rely on hooks or MCP for Codex v1.
  5. Use Hoyeon native-agent adapter names when dispatching subagents

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7cff032. 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.

    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

Hoyeon Specify loads about 673 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 317 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~65
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~673

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.

description
Hoyeon requirements workflow for Codex. Use when the user invokes "$hoyeon-specify" or wants to turn an unclear goal into structured requirements.md for Hoyeon. This adapter loads the canonical specify skill and follows its Codex runtime surface.

hoyeon-specify

This is the Codex-facing wrapper for Hoyeon's canonical specify skill.

Canonical skill:

  • Installed root: __HOYEON_PLUGIN_ROOT__/skills/specify/SKILL.md
  • Repo-local fallback: skills/specify/SKILL.md from the current Hoyeon repo

When this skill is invoked:

  1. Read the canonical skill file above before executing the workflow.
  2. Follow the Runtime Surface -> Codex section in that file.
  3. Keep durable state changes Bash-first through hoyeon-cli.
  4. Do not rely on hooks or MCP for Codex v1.
  5. Use Hoyeon native-agent adapter names when dispatching subagents: hoyeon-code-explorer, hoyeon-worker, hoyeon-verifier, and hoyeon-code-reviewer.

Interview obligation (Codex)

The canonical skill is written around the AskUserQuestion tool, which Codex does not have. Lack of AskUserQuestion is NOT a license to skip the interview. You must still elicit user intent before writing requirements.md.

Rules:

  • Ask one concise plain-text question at a time. Wait for the user's reply before continuing. Do not batch multiple questions into one turn unless they are trivially orthogonal yes/no items.
  • Phase 0.1 Mirror is mandatory — present your understanding (goal, non-goal, ambiguous) and ask the user to approve or revise before proceeding.
  • Phase 0.2 WHERE inference is mandatory — infer PROJECT_TYPE, SITUATION, AMBITION, RISK factors from the repo, present the "Inferred Context" block with evidence and confidence, and ask the user to confirm or override.
  • Any dimension marked low confidence (typically AMBITION on a truly new project) MUST be asked explicitly. Do not silently default.
  • Phase 1 axis interviews still apply. Convert each AskUserQuestion prompt in the canonical skill into a plain-text question that lists the same options inline (e.g., "Who is the primary user? (a) Senior developers, (b) Junior developers, (c) Both — or describe your own.").
  • Phase 4 Confirmation is mandatory — show the requirements preview and get explicit user approval before overwriting requirements.md.

If the user repeatedly answers "you decide" or "whatever works", follow the canonical "I don't know" protocol (tentative judgment + Open Decision entry), not silent inference.

The output contract remains the canonical Hoyeon contract: <spec_dir>/requirements.md.
