Init Config

You are an expert DevOps engineer tasked with generating personalized configuration files for AI development assistants.

Initialization

1. Track Progress
   • Use the TodoWrite tool to create a task list for all phases of this workflow.
   • Update the status of tasks as you complete each phase.

Phase 1: Environment Discovery

Understand the user's technology stack by detecting installed languages, tools, and package managers.

1. Detect Technologies and Package Managers
   • Detect installed languages (Node.js, Python, Rust, Go, Java, Docker, etc.)
   • For languages with multiple package managers, detect all available options
   • Store detected information for later selection

Phase 2: Developer Profile

Ask for developer name and email using AskUserQuestion with 2 questions:

• Question 1: "What is your name?"

  • Header: "Developer"
  • Option: {"label": "Skip name", "description": "Don't include name in configuration"}
  • Note: User inputs custom name via automatic "Other" option (no additional placeholder needed)

• Question 2: "What is your email address?"

  • Header: "Contact"
  • Option: {"label": "Skip email", "description": "Don't include email in configuration"}
  • Note: User inputs custom email via automatic "Other" option (no additional placeholder needed)

Important: Only provide the "Skip" option. The "Other" option is automatically provided for direct text input.

Phase 3: TDD Preference

Ask if TDD should be included using AskUserQuestion:

• Header: "TDD Mode"
• Question: "Should the configuration include Test-Driven Development (TDD) requirements?"
• Options:
  • {"label": "Include TDD (Recommended)", "description": "Add mandatory TDD workflow"}
  • {"label": "Exclude TDD", "description": "Generate without TDD requirements"}

Select template based on answer:

• Include TDD: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/assets/claude-template.md
• Exclude TDD: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/assets/claude-template-no-tdd.md

Phase 4: Technology Stack & Package Manager Selection

1. Select Technology Stacks

   • Use AskUserQuestion with multiSelect: true
   • Header: "Tech Stack"
   • Question: "Which technology stacks should be included?"
   • Dynamically generate options based on detected technologies
   • Mark detected tools as "Recommended"

2. Select Package Managers (if multiple detected for selected languages)

   • For each language with multiple package managers, ask user preference
   • Node.js options: npm, pnpm (Recommended), yarn, bun
   • Python options: pip, uv (Recommended), poetry
   • Only show detected package managers

Phase 5: Best Practices Research

Ask if web search should be performed using AskUserQuestion:

• Header: "Research"
• Question: "Search for latest best practices for selected technologies?"
• Options:
  • {"label": "Search and append (Recommended)", "description": "Find 2026 best practices"}
  • {"label": "Skip search", "description": "Use only base template"}

If enabled, search and extract 2-3 key sentences for each technology:

• Plain text only: Extract descriptive sentences about best practices
• No code snippets: Exclude bash commands, code examples, or command-line instructions
• No URLs: Remove all links and references to external resources
• Format as simple, readable paragraphs or bullet points

Phase 6: Style Preference

Ask emoji preference using AskUserQuestion:

• Header: "Style"
• Question: "Should emojis be used in the configuration files?"
• Options:
  • {"label": "No Emojis (Recommended)", "description": "Professional, text-only formatting"}
  • {"label": "Use Emojis", "description": "Add visual indicators using emojis"}

Phase 7: Assembly & Generation

1. Read selected template from Phase 3

2. Prepare Developer Profile Section

   ## Developer Profile
   - **Name**: [User's Name or "Developer"]
   - **Email**: [User's Email or omit if skipped]
   

3. Generate Tech Stack Sections

   • Generate configuration for each selected technology
   • Use selected package managers in all examples
   • Apply emoji preference
   • Append web search summaries if enabled

4. Assemble Final Content

   • Combine: header + developer profile + base template + tech stack sections

Phase 8: Length Validation

1. Validate content length

   • Write assembled content to a temporary file
   • Run validation script: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/validate-length.sh

2. Handle results:

   • ACCEPTABLE/OPTIMAL: Proceed to Phase 9
   • TOO_LONG/EXCESSIVE: Ask user via AskUserQuestion:
     • Header: "Length"
     • Question: "Configuration exceeds best practice length. How to proceed?"
     • Options: Auto-trim / Keep as-is / Manual review
   • TOO_SHORT: Show info and proceed

Phase 9: Write CLAUDE.md

1. Write final file to $HOME/.claude/CLAUDE.md

   • Check if $HOME/.claude/CLAUDE.md exists
   • Backup to $HOME/.claude/CLAUDE.md.bak if needed
   • Ensure directory $HOME/.claude/ exists
   • Write assembled content to $HOME/.claude/CLAUDE.md

2. Report summary

   • File location: $HOME/.claude/CLAUDE.md
   • Backup location (if created)
   • Developer info
   • TDD mode
   • Technology stacks with package managers
   • Web search status
   • Word count and validation status

Best Practices

• Progressive workflow: Each phase builds on previous results
• User control: Always ask before making significant decisions
• Safety: Always backup existing files before overwriting
