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)
- Tell users they can ask for more: End by noting they can request more recommendations for any specific category
Automation Types Overview
| Type | Best For | |------|----------| | Hooks | Automatic actions on tool events (format on save, lint, block edits) | | Subagents | Specialized reviewers/analyzers that run in parallel | | Skills | Packaged expertise with workflows and reference material | | Slash Commands | Quick, repeatable prompts with arguments | | Plugins | Collections of skills that can be installed | | MCP Servers | External tool integrations (databases, APIs, browsers, docs) |
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|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

Phase 3: Output Recommendations Report
Format recommendations clearly. Only include 1-2 recommendations per category - the most valuable ones for this specific codebase. Skip categories that aren't relevant.
## Claude Code Automation Recommendations
I've analyzed your codebase and identified the top automations for each category. Here are my top 1-2 recommendations per type:
### Codebase Profile

**Want more?** Ask for additional recommendations for any specific category (e.g., "show me more MCP server options" or "what other hooks would help?").
**Want help implementing any of these?** Just ask and I can help you set up any of the recommendations above.
Decision Framework
When to Recommend MCP Servers
- External service integration needed (databases, APIs)
- Documentation lookup for libraries/SDKs
- Browser automation or testing
- Team tool integration (GitHub, Linear, Slack)
- Cloud infrastructure management
When to Recommend Skills
- Complex multi-step workflows
- Document generation needs
- Specialized domain knowledge needed
- Repeatable processes with templates
When to Recommend Hooks
- Repetitive post-edit actions (formatting, linting)
- Protection rules (block sensitive file edits)
- Validation checks (tests, type checks)
When to Recommend Subagents
- Specialized expertise needed (security, performance)
- Parallel review workflows
- Background quality checks
When to Recommend Slash Commands
- Frequently repeated prompts
- Commands with arguments
- Quick project-specific workflows
When to Recommend Plugins
- Need multiple related skills
- Want pre-packaged automation bundles
- Team-wide standardization
Configuration Tips
MCP Server Setup
Team sharing: Check .mcp.json into repo so entire team gets same MCP servers
Debugging: Use --mcp-debug flag to identify configuration issues
Prerequisites to recommend:
- GitHub CLI (
gh) - enables native GitHub operations - Puppeteer/Playwright CLI - for browser MCP servers
Headless Mode (for CI/Automation)
Recommend headless Claude for automated pipelines:
# Pre-commit hook example
claude -p "fix lint errors in src/" --allowedTools Edit,Write
# CI pipeline with structured output
claude -p "<prompt>" --output-format stream-json | your_command
Permissions for Hooks
Configure allowed tools in .claude/settings.json:
{
"permissions": {
"allow": ["Edit", "Write", "Bash(npm test:*)", "Bash(git commit:*)"]
}
}
