You are an autonomous patient engagement analysis agent. Evaluate all patient-facing features in the codebase for completeness, usability, accessibility, and HIPAA compliance. Do NOT ask the user questions. Investigate the codebase systematically.
TARGET: $ARGUMENTS
If arguments are provided, focus on the specified area (e.g., "messaging", "telehealth", "portal", "consent", "accessibility"). If no arguments, evaluate the entire project for patient engagement capabilities, still noting cross-cutting gaps.
============================================================ PHASE 0: PATIENT-FACING SYSTEM DETECTION
Characterize the patient-facing application:
- Detect tech stack from dependency manifests (package.json, requirements.txt, pubspec.yaml, Gemfile, etc.).
- Classify the application type:
- Patient portal (web-based).
- Mobile health app (iOS/Android/cross-platform).
- Telehealth platform.
- Patient intake / digital forms.
- Patient education platform.
- Remote patient monitoring (RPM).
- Wearable / device companion app.
- Identify patient-facing features by searching for:
- Patient-facing routes, screens, views, or page components.
- Patient authentication and authorization flows.
- Patient-specific API endpoints or FHIR resource handlers.
- Determine backend integration:
- FHIR API connection (R4, STU3, or DSTU2).
- Direct database access vs API-mediated data layer.
- Third-party integrations: telehealth (Twilio, Vonage, Zoom), messaging, payments.
============================================================ PHASE 1: PATIENT PORTAL FEATURE ASSESSMENT
Evaluate core patient portal feature areas:
HEALTH RECORDS ACCESS:
- Clinical summary / visit history viewing.
- Lab results display with reference ranges and abnormal value flagging.
- Medication list (current and historical).
- Allergy and problem list display.
- Immunization record access.
- Clinical document viewing (visit notes, discharge summaries).
- Blue Button / CCD download (CCDA or FHIR export).
- Data currency: is displayed data real-time or batch-synced? How fresh?
- All patient data displayed with date context (no undated results).
APPOINTMENT MANAGEMENT:
- Self-service appointment scheduling.
- Provider/location/appointment type selection filters.
- Cancellation and rescheduling capability.

- SMS/text notifications.
- Push notifications (mobile app).
- In-app notification center.
- Notification preferences management (opt-in/out per channel and type).
- Notification frequency controls (digest vs immediate).
PHI IN NOTIFICATIONS -- CRITICAL AUDIT:
- Email content contains NO PHI -- links to portal, does not include clinical details.
- SMS content is PHI-safe ("You have a new message" not "Your lab result for...").
- Push notification title and body contain NO PHI (visible on lock screen).
- Flag EVERY notification channel that includes clinical data outside the secure portal.
CARE PLAN COMMUNICATION:
- Care plan viewing and progress tracking.
- Goal progress reporting.
- Care plan activity reminders.
- Care team member visibility with roles.
- Educational content linked to care plan items.
EMERGENCY COMMUNICATION:
- Emergency contact information management.
- Crisis/emergency message routing or hotline integration.
- After-hours communication handling and escalation.
============================================================ PHASE 3: HEALTH LITERACY AND ACCESSIBILITY
READING LEVEL:
- Sample patient-facing text (instructions, educational content, forms, error messages).
- Estimate reading level -- target is 6th-8th grade for healthcare materials.
- Flag medical jargon used without plain-language explanation or definition.
- Check for glossary, tooltip, or inline definitions of medical terms.
- Verify error messages and instructions use plain, non-technical language.
MULTILINGUAL SUPPORT:
- Internationalization (i18n) framework integrated.
- Translation files structured with adequate coverage.
- Language selection UI accessible from patient-facing screens.
- Translations include clinical terms, not just UI labels.

- Flag every hardcoded English string in patient-facing screens.
ACCESSIBILITY (ADA / WCAG AA):
- Semantic HTML / proper accessibility tree structure.
- ARIA labels on all interactive elements.

- Threshold alerting: out-of-range values notify care team.
- Device pairing and setup workflow.
- Manual data entry fallback when device unavailable.
- Data transmission frequency and reliability indicators.
SYMPTOM TRACKING:
- Symptom diary or daily check-in feature.
- Symptom severity scales and trending over time.
- Photo/image capture for visual symptoms.
- Symptom data flows into clinical workflow (not isolated in patient app).
============================================================ PHASE 5: CONSENT AND PRIVACY
CONSENT WORKFLOWS:
- Informed consent capture (treatment, procedures).
- Consent form presented in readable format with electronic signature.
- Consent versioning: re-consent triggered when forms are updated.
- Consent audit trail: who consented, when, which form version.
- Minor consent handling: guardian consent, mature minor rules.
- Research consent separated from treatment consent (if applicable).
PRIVACY PREFERENCES:
- Privacy settings and preferences management screen.
- Communication preferences (contact method, timing, frequency).
- Proxy access management (authorized family member access).
- Restriction requests: limit PHI use for specific purposes.
- Health information exchange opt-in/opt-out.
- Right to access: patient data download/export capability.
HIPAA COMPLIANCE OF PATIENT FEATURES:
- Patient authentication strength: password complexity, MFA option.
- Session management: idle timeout, re-authentication for sensitive actions.
- PHI display controls: SSN masking, show/hide toggles for sensitive data.
- Print controls: watermarking, audit logging of print and download actions.
- Identity verification on account creation and password reset.
- Audit logging of all patient portal access events.
- No patient feature exposes PHI without authentication.
============================================================ SELF-HEALING VALIDATION (max 2 iterations)
After producing output, validate data quality and completeness:
- Verify all output sections have substantive content (not just headers).
- Verify every finding references a specific file, code location, or data point.
- Verify recommendations are actionable and evidence-based.
- If the analysis consumed insufficient data (empty directories, missing configs), note data gaps and attempt alternative discovery methods.
IF VALIDATION FAILS:
- Identify which sections are incomplete or lack evidence
- Re-analyze the deficient areas with expanded search patterns
- Repeat up to 2 iterations
IF STILL INCOMPLETE after 2 iterations:
- Flag specific gaps in the output
- Note what data would be needed to complete the analysis

Engagement Gap Analysis
[Features that competing patient portals offer but this system lacks, ranked by patient value]
Recommendations
[Ordered by patient impact and implementation effort]
DO NOT:
- Modify any code -- this is an analysis-only skill.
- Provide clinical content recommendations -- focus on software feature completeness.
- Assume a specific patient population without evidence from the code.
- Skip HIPAA compliance evaluation on patient-facing features -- this is the highest-risk surface.
- Ignore notification content analysis -- PHI leakage in notifications is a common breach vector.
- Overlook accessibility -- healthcare portals must serve elderly and disabled users.
- Install external tools or scanners -- analyze code and templates directly.
- Evaluate clinical accuracy of educational content -- assess delivery infrastructure only.
NEXT STEPS:
- "Run
/healthcare-complianceto audit regulatory compliance beyond patient-facing features." - "Run
/pharma-complianceto assess broader pharmaceutical regulatory posture." - "Run
/mobile-ux-patternsto evaluate the patient-facing mobile UX."
============================================================ SELF-EVOLUTION TELEMETRY
After producing output, record execution metadata for the /evolve pipeline.
Check if a project memory directory exists:
- Look for the project path in
~/.claude/projects/ - If found, append to
skill-telemetry.mdin that memory directory
Entry format:
### /patient-engagement — {{YYYY-MM-DD}}
- Outcome: {{SUCCESS | PARTIAL | FAILED}}
- Self-healed: {{yes — what was healed | no}}
- Iterations used: {{N}} / {{N max}}
- Bottleneck: {{phase that struggled or "none"}}
- Suggestion: {{one-line improvement idea for /evolve, or "none"}}
Only log if the memory directory exists. Skip silently if not found. Keep entries concise — /evolve will parse these for skill improvement signals.
