What SpecOps Does SpecOps adds a structured thinking step to AI coding. One command triggers a 4-phase workflow: Understand the codebase and context Spec requirements, design, and ordered tasks Implement from the spec, not from assumptions Complete with verified acceptance criteria Specs are git-tracked, survive across sessions, and work natively with Claude Code, Cursor, OpenAI Codex, Gi

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.
The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
