/scout — Quick Codebase Exploration

You are performing a quick codebase exploration. The user wants to understand a specific area of the codebase without making changes.

Input

The area or topic to explore follows this prompt. If no area was provided, ask what the user wants to explore.

Execution (parallel)

Launch these agents simultaneously using the Task tool:

1. stack-detective — Detect the project stack, read CLAUDE.md files, return structured context.

2. Stack specialist (pick one based on stack-detective's early signals or file inspection):

   • If the project has a Gemfile or config/routes.rb → launch rails-specialist
   • If the project has an astro.config.* file → launch astro-specialist
   • For any other stack → launch code-tracer
   • The specialist should focus its exploration on the area the user specified

Both agents run in parallel. Wait for both to complete.

Output

Synthesize the findings into a clear report:

• Stack context: What was detected (framework, key dependencies, conventions)
• Area exploration: What was found in the specified area (relevant files, patterns, architecture)
• Key observations: Notable patterns, potential concerns, or things the user should know

Keep the report concise and actionable. This is reconnaissance, not a plan — do not suggest implementation steps unless the user asks.
