Run project structure detection:
bash scripts/analyze-claude-md.sh
If the script is missing or fails, fall back to manual analysis:
Identifies:
Analyze Claude Code history for current project:
bash scripts/analyze.sh --current-project
If the script is unavailable, suggest the user check:
Identifies:
Search GitHub for relevant resources:
bash scripts/github-discovery.sh all [query]
bash scripts/github-discovery.sh skills react
bash scripts/github-discovery.sh agents typescript
If the script is unavailable, search GitHub directly:
gh search repos "claude-code plugin" --sort stars --limit 10
gh search repos "claude-code skill" --sort stars --limit 10
