Promptbook Doctor

Run diagnostics to check if Promptbook is set up correctly. Execute each check via Bash and report the results.

Checks

Run these checks in order and report each result:

1. Config file exists

if [ -f "$HOME/.promptbook/config.json" ]; then
  echo "CONFIG_FOUND"
  # Check permissions (should be 600)
  stat -f "%Lp" "$HOME/.promptbook/config.json" 2>/dev/null || stat -c "%a" "$HOME/.promptbook/config.json" 2>/dev/null
  # Check required fields exist (without displaying values)
  node -e "const c=JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync('$HOME/.promptbook/config.json','utf8'));console.log('has_api_key:',!!c.api_key);console.log('has_api_url:',!!c.api_url);console.log('auto_summary:',c.auto_summary);console.log('telemetry_consent:',c.telemetry_consent===true)"
else
  echo "NO_CONFIG"
fi

If no config file found or telemetry_consent is false: tell the user to run /setup first.

2. API key is valid

Use the config file to test the API key without displaying it:

API_KEY=$(node -e "console.log(JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync('$HOME/.promptbook/config.json','utf8')).api_key)")
curl -sL -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" -X POST "https://promptbook.gg/api/auth/verify-setup" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY"

• 200 = valid and verified
• 401 = invalid key — suggest running /setup again
• Other = network issue — suggest checking connectivity

3. Last session activity

Check for recent session data files to see if hooks are actually firing:

ls -lt ~/.promptbook/sessions/ 2>/dev/null | head -5

If no session files found: hooks may not be firing. Suggest starting a new Claude Code session.

Report Format

Present results as a clear diagnostic:

Promptbook Doctor
─────────────────
✓ Config:    Found (~/.promptbook/config.json)
✓ Consent:   Granted during setup
✓ API Key:   Valid and verified
✓ Activity:  Last session 2 hours ago

Use ✓ for passing checks, ✗ for failures, ⚠ for warnings.

Important

• Run all commands via Bash — the user just reads the report.
• Never display the API key.
• If everything passes, tell the user their setup is healthy.
• If checks fail, give specific actionable steps to fix each issue.
