Id Discover
The everyday-change ENTRY survey (infra-delivery step 2 default) — a read-only inventory of the target infra (the relevant IaC roots + the in-scope live resources) plus the change surface the intended change touches, producing the change-scope report. A PROCEDURE skill the generic agent runs inside a CTX session: the `tofu plan` / `argocd app diff` / `kubectl get` reads flow through the CTX command-policy guard (all read-only, allowed even in guarded prod, the id-baseline way). It NEVER applies, scaffolds, or reconciles — discovery is read-only survey + scope, nothing more. ADVISORY craft (produces the change-scope report + a `.foundry/`-partitioned survey step-report note; it surveys, it does NOT claim a machine-adjudicated GREEN verdict — the merge floor, branch protection + CI checks, is the merge authority). It does NOT invoke ctx-posture — a read-only survey never mutates, so the posture mutation-gate does no work for it.

From the source SKILL.md
The infra-delivery step sequence (a documented procedure this skill family forms — no workflow engine or state-machine file ships) drives an infra change → merge. Step 2 has four entry modes, one per starting condition. id-discover is the everyday-change default — the entry mode for "a baseline already exists and you're making a routine change." Unlike the three onboarding modes that establish a baseline — id-import (greenfield — codify live infra that has NO IaC), id-baseline (adopt an existing IaC repo + validate it drift-free), id-architect (forward-design a topology) — id-discover assumes…
What this skill does
Id Discover is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the devops sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/id-discover/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
Who uses this skill
The Id Discover Claude Code skill is built for software engineers, backend developers, full-stack teams, and technical leads building and maintaining production systems. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 176,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).

When should I use the Id Discover skill?
Use Id Discover when your Claude Code task falls under the Engineering category — specifically in the devops area. Claude Code auto-discovers installed skills and invokes the right one based on the task description, so you can also ask Claude directly (e.g. "use Id Discover" or describe the task and let Claude pick). Browse related skills at
/category/engineering/.
What is a Claude Code skill and how does the Id Discover skill fit in?
A Claude Code skill is a
SKILL.md file that lives under
~/.claude/skills/<name>/ and tells the Claude Code CLI agent how to perform a specific task (instructions, prompts, allowed tools). Skills are auto-discovered at session start. Id Discover is one of 67,000+ skills indexed in the open ClaudSkills catalog, classified under the Engineering category. Learn more at
