Suggesting Tooling
Analyzes codebases to suggest custom skills and agents for workflow automation.
Quick Start
- Scan codebase for patterns (languages, frameworks, workflows)
- Match patterns to skill/agent templates
- Present suggestions with rationale
- Generate approved tooling using creating-skills/creating-agents
Workflow
Progress:
- [ ] Analyze codebase patterns
- [ ] Match to tooling templates
- [ ] Present suggestions
- [ ] Generate approved items
Step 1: Analyze Codebase
Run lightweight analysis:
# Language detection
find . -type f -name "*.ts" -o -name "*.js" -o -name "*.py" | head -100
# Framework detection
ls package.json pyproject.toml Cargo.toml go.mod 2>/dev/null
# Workflow detection
ls .github/workflows/ .gitlab-ci.yml Dockerfile 2>/dev/null
# Existing tooling
ls .claude/skills/ .claude/agents/ 2>/dev/null
Collect:
- Primary language(s)
- Framework(s) in use
- Build/test tooling
- CI/CD setup
- Existing .claude/ configuration
Step 2: Pattern Matching
Match detected patterns to suggestions:
| Signal | Skill Suggestion | Agent Suggestion |
|---|---|---|
| Jest/Pytest/Mocha | testing-code | - |
| REST routes | - | api-testing |
| Prisma/migrations | db-migrations | - |
| Dockerfile | deploying-code | - |
| ESLint/Prettier | linting-code | - |
| Auth patterns | - | security-review |
| Many .md files | documenting-code | - |
| PR workflow | - | code-reviewer |
See patterns/skills.md and patterns/agents.md for complete mappings.
Step 3: Present Suggestions
Format suggestions for user review:
## Tooling Suggestions for {project}
Based on analysis of your codebase:
- Language: {detected}
- Framework: {detected}
- Existing tooling: {count} skills, {count} agents
### Recommended Skills
| # | Skill | Why | Priority |
|---|-------|-----|----------|
| 1 | {name} | {rationale} | P1 |
| 2 | {name} | {rationale} | P2 |
### Recommended Agents
| # | Agent | Why | Priority |
|---|-------|-----|----------|
| 1 | {name} | {rationale} | P1 |
Then ask user which to generate.
Step 4: Generate Tooling
For each approved item:
Skills - Invoke creating-skills:
Use the creating-skills skill to create a {name} skill.
Purpose: {rationale}
Detected context:
- Framework: {framework}
- Test runner: {runner}
- Patterns: {patterns}
Generate a focused skill for this project.
Agents - Invoke creating-agents:
Use the creating-agents skill to create a {name} agent.
Purpose: {rationale}
Suggested tools: {tools}
Detected context:
- Project type: {type}
- Workflows: {workflows}
Generate a focused agent for this project.
Pattern Categories
Testing
- Signals: jest.config, pytest.ini, mocha, test/ directory
- Suggest: testing-code skill
- Priority: P1 if tests exist but no skill
API Development
- Signals: Express routes, FastAPI, REST patterns
- Suggest: api-testing agent
- Priority: P1 if API-heavy project
Database
- Signals: Prisma, TypeORM, migrations/
- Suggest: db-migrations skill
- Priority: P2
DevOps
- Signals: Dockerfile, docker-compose, CI configs
- Suggest: deploying-code skill
- Priority: P2 if no deployment automation
Code Quality
- Signals: ESLint, Prettier, pre-commit
- Suggest: linting-code skill
- Priority: P3
Security
- Signals: Auth middleware, JWT, OAuth
- Suggest: security-review agent
- Priority: P1 for auth-heavy projects
See reference.md for detailed pattern definitions.
Gap Analysis
Compare detected needs against existing .claude/ configuration:
Detected workflows: Existing tooling:
- Testing (Jest) - (none)
- API (Express) - (none)
- CI (GitHub Actions) - (none)
Gaps: testing, api-testing, deployment
Only suggest tooling that fills gaps.
Output Format
After generation, report:
## Tooling Created
| Type | Name | Location |
|------|------|----------|
| Skill | testing-code | .claude/skills/testing-code/ |
| Agent | code-reviewer | .claude/agents/code-reviewer.md |
### Restart Required
New skills and agents require a Claude restart to be available.
To continue where you left off:
\`\`\`bash
claude --continue
\`\`\`
### Next Steps
1. Restart Claude to load new tooling
2. Run `claude --continue` to resume
3. Review generated tooling in .claude/
4. Test skills with sample workflows
Limits
- Maximum 5 suggestions per category
- Require explicit approval before generating
- Skip suggestions for existing tooling
- Prioritize by impact (P1 first)
