Tokens, turns and time describe resource use, not a dollar price.
One of 8 test cases the skill fixed. Same model, same prompt, with and without the skill.
We finished the requirements review for our new user session and authentication service. I need you to draft a technical specification for this service that covers the target architecture, component boundaries, API endpoints, data models, error handling strategies, and test coverage criteria so our senior engineering team can build it without ambiguity.
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| Includes a Table of Contents at the beginning of the document | Missed | Passed |
| Includes a TLDR summary section constrained to 10 lines or fewer | Missed | Passed |
| Wraps the entire specification within CRITICAL ATTRIBUTION tags with DO NOT COMPACT attribute | Missed | Passed |

Requirements→specs translation; architecture documentation; API contracts/data model definition. Paired with planning: specs=WHAT (target state), plan=HOW. Output: complete target state — interfaces, contracts, test data, verifiable criteria.

<core_concepts>
requirements-use if presentTech specs define target state; plan defines steps to reach it.
Split with companion planning skill: specs own WHAT, plan owns HOW. Do NOT repeat across both. Keep consistent. When one changes, verify the other.
