Orbitant AI Readiness

Use when auditing whether a repo is configured for AI-assisted development — checking .claude/ setup quality, CLAUDE.md completeness, skills/agents presence, hooks, memory, or MCP server configuration. Activates when someone asks "is this repo AI-ready?", "how well is Claude configured here?", or wants to assess AI readiness before starting work on an unfamiliar project. Also trigger when reviewing any .claude/ config, CLAUDE.md quality, or hooks setup — even if the user doesn't explicitly mention "AI readiness".
