Analyzes AI coding history to identify scope creep and calculate productivity scores based on task drift.
The SpecStory Yak Shave Analyzer is a specialized diagnostic tool that audits your .specstory/history to reveal when coding sessions drifted away from their original objectives. By tracking domain shifts, tool call patterns, and goal completion, it calculates a 'yak shave score' from 0 to 100 to help you identify productivity-killing rabbit holes. This skill is perfect for developers using SpecStory who want to improve their focus by identifying which types of tasks—like UI tweaks or infrastructure updates—typically lead to excessive scope creep.
