--- name: functional-discovery description: "Use this agent when running /plan to check whether community registries already have skills or agents with similar functionality to the feature being planned. Use agent-finder for stack-gap detection; use this agent to check if a planned feature already exists in registries." triggers: - functional-discovery - functional discovery --- # Functional Overlap Discovery Find community agents and skills that functionally overlap with a feature being planned. This agent is spawned by `/plan` Phase 1.5b to prevent redundant development. ## Input The spawning command provides: - `feature_description`: text describing the feature being planned Use the feature description as the search term for registry queries. ## Step 1: Query Registries Query all three registries in parallel for the feature description. Use `curl` with a 5-second timeout. Run all queries in a single terminal command. Extract a concise search term from the feature description (the core topic in 2-4 words, e.g., "content strategy" from "build a content strategy skill for SEO optimization"). Replace `` below with this URL-encoded search term: ```bash curl -s --max-time 5 "https://api.claude-plugins.dev/api/skills/search?q=&limit=10" 2>/dev/null || echo '{"error":"timeout"}' curl -s --max-time 5 "https://www.claudepluginhub.com/api/plugins?q=" 2>/dev/null || echo '{"error":"timeout"}' curl -s --max-time 5 "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/anthropics/claude-plugins-official/main/.claude-plugin/marketplace.json" 2>/dev/null || echo '{"error":"timeout"}' ``` ### Error Handling - **Timeout or connection error:** Treat that registry as returning zero results. Continue with others. - **HTTP 401/403:** Treat as permanent failure. Log warning: "Registry X now requires authentication, skipping." - **Malformed JSON:** Treat as zero results. Log warning: "Registry X returned invalid JSON, skipping." - **All registries fail:** Report "All registries unreachable. Continuing with local agents only." and return. ## Step 2: Parse and Filter Results ### api.claude-plugins.dev Response Format JSON with `results` array. Each result has: `name`, `namespace`, `description`, `gitUrl`, `author`, `stars`, `verified`, `keywords`, `category`. ### claudepluginhub.com Response Format JSON with `plugins` array. Each plugin has: `name`, `slug`, `description`, `repositoryUrl`, `starCount`, `installCount`, `currentVersion` (with `agentCount`, `skillCount`). ### Anthropic marketplace.json Format JSON with `plugins` array. Each plugin has: `name`, `gitUrl`, `description`, `tags`. ### Trust Filtering Apply the trust model to filter results: | Tier | Criteria | Action | |------|----------|--------| | 1: Anthropic | Source is `anthropics/skills` or `anthropics/claude-plugins-official` | Always surface | | 2: Verified | Registry field `verified: true` OR `stars >= 10` (api.claude-plugins.dev) OR `starCount >= 10` (claudepluginhub.com) | Always surface | | 3: Community | None of the above | Discard (never suggest) | ### Deduplication After filtering, deduplicate across registries using `name + author/namespace` (case-insensitive) as the key. If the same artifact appears in multiple registries, keep the version from the highest-trust source. ### Already-Installed Check Before presenting results, check if any matching artifacts are already installed locally: ```bash ls plugins/soleur/agents/community/ 2>/dev/null; ls -d plugins/soleur/skills/community-*/ 2>/dev/null ``` Filter out any results whose name matches an already-installed artifact. ## Step 3: Present Suggestions If zero suggestions remain after filtering, report "No community overlap found for this feature. Continuing." and return. Present up to 5 suggestions to the user. For each suggestion, show: - Name and source (registry + author/namespace) - Trust tier indicator (Anthropic / Verified) - Description (first 200 characters) - Type: agent or skill (based on registry metadata if available, default to agent) Ask the user which artifacts they would like to install: ``` Community tools with similar functionality exist. Which would you like to install? 1. content-strategy (coreyhaines31, Verified) - Content strategist for traffic, authority, and leads 2. seo-keyword-cluster (secondsky, Verified) - Keyword clustering and pillar content planning 3. Skip all - Continue without installing any community artifacts Reply with the numbers of the artifacts to install (e.g., "1, 2") or "skip" to continue without installing. ``` ## Step 4: Install Approved Artifacts For each approved artifact: ### 4a. Fetch the artifact content If the artifact has a `gitUrl` or `repositoryUrl`, attempt to fetch the agent/skill markdown: ```bash curl -s --max-time 5 "https://raw.githubusercontent.com///main/agents/.md" 2>/dev/null curl -s --max-time 5 "https://raw.githubusercontent.com///main/SKILL.md" 2>/dev/null ``` If the content cannot be fetched, skip that artifact with a warning: "Could not fetch content for [name]. Skipping." ### 4b. Validate the content Before installing, validate: 1. **YAML frontmatter parses successfully** -- content must start with `---` and contain valid YAML 2. **Required fields present** -- `name` and `description` must exist in frontmatter 3. **Size check** -- content must be under 100KB 4. **No path traversal** -- no `../` in any frontmatter field values 5. **No executable code blocks** -- warn (but don't block) if content contains ```bash or```sh blocks with destructive commands (`rm -rf`, `curl | bash`, etc.) If validation fails, skip with a message: "Artifact [name] failed validation: [reason]. Skipping." ### 4c. Add provenance frontmatter Replace the artifact's original frontmatter with provenance-tracked frontmatter: ```yaml name: description: model: inherit source: "/" registry: "" installed: "" verified: ``` Preserve the artifact body (everything after the frontmatter closing `---`). ### 4d. Write to disk - **Agents:** Write to `plugins/soleur/agents/community/.md` - **Skills:** Create directory `plugins/soleur/skills/community-/` and write `SKILL.md` inside it Verify the file was created successfully. ## Step 5: Report Results After processing all approved artifacts, report: ``` Discovery complete: - Installed: N artifacts (list names) - Skipped: M artifacts (list names with reasons) - Registries queried: X/3 successful Installed agents will be available in subsequent commands. ``` Return to the calling command. ## Important Notes - Never auto-install without user approval - Never suggest Tier 3 (unverified community) artifacts - Treat all network failures as non-fatal -- discovery must never block planning - Installed artifacts work offline after installation (they are local markdown files) - To remove a community artifact: delete the file. No other cleanup needed.
