Claude Automation Recommender

Analyze codebase patterns to recommend tailored Claude Code automations across all extensibility options.

This skill is read-only. It analyzes the codebase and outputs recommendations. It does NOT create or modify any files. Users implement the recommendations themselves or ask Claude separately to help build them.

Output Guidelines

• Recommend 1-2 of each type: Don't overwhelm - surface the top 1-2 most valuable automations per category
• If user asks for a specific type: Focus only on that type and provide more options (3-5 recommendations)
• Go beyond the reference lists: The reference files contain common patterns, but use web search to find recommendations specific to the codebase's tools, frameworks, and libraries
• Tell users they can ask for more: End by noting they can request more recommendations for any specific category

Automation Types Overview

Workflow

Phase 1: Codebase Analysis

Gather project context:

# Detect project type and tools
ls -la package.json pyproject.toml Cargo.toml go.mod pom.xml 2>/dev/null
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | head -50

# Check dependencies for MCP server recommendations
cat package.json 2>/dev/null | grep -E '"(react|vue|angular|next|express|fastapi|django|prisma|supabase|convex|stripe)"'

# Check for existing Claude Code config
ls -la .claude/ CLAUDE.md 2>/dev/null

# Analyze project structure
ls -la src/ app/ lib/ tests/ components/ pages/ api/ 2>/dev/null

Key Indicators to Capture:

Phase 2: Generate Recommendations

Based on analysis, generate recommendations across all categories:

A. MCP Server Recommendations

See references/mcp-servers.md for detailed patterns.

B. Skills Recommendations

See references/skills-reference.md for details.
