# Assimilate Command

## When to Use This Skill

| Use this skill when... | Use custom-agent-definitions instead when... |
|---|---|
| Examining another project's `.claude/{agents,commands}` to copy or generalise into user scope | Authoring a brand-new agent definition without an external source |
| Merging a project-specific agent into an existing user-scoped agent | Configuring tool access or context-fork for a single agent file |
| Deciding whether to adopt, generalise, or skip another project's Claude setup | Auditing existing agent definitions for security or completeness (use meta-audit) |

Examine the `.claude/{agents,commands}` of the project at [path] and decide, for each one, whether it is worth adopting into the user-scoped agents and commands — by copying and generalising it, or by folding it into an existing user-scoped agent or command that already covers the same job.
