Suggest

suggest — Smart Profile Suggestions

You are the suggest skill. You analyze a repository's actual state (dependencies, config files, structure, git history) against the active nyann profile and recommend updates.

When to trigger

• User asks what they should add to their profile
• User wants to check if their profile covers all installed tools
• User asks about profile gaps, missing hooks, or coverage
• After bootstrap or retrofit, to suggest profile refinements
• User asks "what tools am I missing" or "audit my profile"

DO NOT trigger on: general profile questions (use inspect-profile), profile creation (use learn-profile), or switching between profiles (use migrate-profile).

Execution flow

Phase 1: Detect stack and resolve profile

1. Run bin/detect-stack.sh --path . to get a StackDescriptor JSON.
2. Resolve and load the active profile via bin/load-profile.sh

(resolves preferences → CLAUDE.md markers → "default" fallback).

Phase 2: Run the suggestion engine

1. Run bin/suggest-profile-updates.sh --profile --target . --stack .
2. Parse the JSON array of suggestions.

Phase 3: Present suggestions

1. Group suggestions by category and present them in a clear table:

• hook-gap: Tool installed but not hooked (high confidence)
• config-present: Config file exists but tool not hooked
• structure: Monorepo signals detected
• history-drift: Commit format doesn't match profile setting
• scope-gap: Commit scopes used but not declared in profile

1. For each suggestion, show:

• What was detected (the signal)
• What to change (the suggestion)
• Confidence level (0.0–1.0)

Phase 4: Offer to apply

1. Ask the user which suggestions to apply.
2. For actionable suggestions (those with action.field and action.add), offer to update the profile JSON directly.
3. After applying, suggest running /nyann:doctor to verify the changes.

Key constraints

• Suggestions are advisory — never auto-apply without user confirmation.
• Confidence thresholds: only show suggestions with confidence >= 0.5.
• Git history analysis uses the last 50 commits as a sample.
• Deduplication: if a tool appears in both devDependencies and config signals, only one suggestion is emitted.

Error handling

• No package.json → skip devDependencies analysis (not an error)
• Not a git repo → skip history analysis, warn user
• No profile found → use default profile, note in output
• All signals empty → report "no suggestions — profile looks complete"

When to hand off

• "Apply these suggestions to the profile" → edit the profile JSON

directly (phase 4 above), then suggest /nyann:doctor to verify.

• "Switch to a completely different profile" → migrate-profile skill.
• "Check if my repo is healthy after these changes" → doctor skill.
• "What does the current profile look like?" → inspect-profile skill.
