Project: !basename $(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null) 2>/dev/null || basename $PWD Open issues: !gh issue list --state open --json number --jq 'length' 2>/dev/null || echo "unknown" Last tag: !git describe --tags --abbrev=0 2>/dev/null || echo "none" Recent commits: !git log --oneline -5 2>/dev/null || echo "none"

Analyses the current project from multiple angles — technical, strategic, and commercial — then files actionable GitHub issues for every finding.

Step 0: Pre-flight check

gh auth status 2>&1 || { echo "ERROR: gh is not authenticated. Run: gh auth login"; exit 1; }

Step 1: Understand the project

Read these files to build context before analysing anything:

• README.md — stated purpose, audience, and feature set
• CLAUDE.md — current status, decisions, next steps
• Any .claude-plugin/plugin.json or manifest files — metadata and versioning

Then inventory all files:

find . -not -path './.git/*' -type f | sort

Read a representative sample of source files to understand the implementation. Note: what does this project do, who is it for, and what problem does it solve?

Step 2: Code quality and bugs

Review source files for:

• Logic errors, edge cases, or fragile assumptions
• Anti-patterns or code that will break under realistic conditions
• Inconsistent behaviour between similar components
• Missing error handling at system boundaries (user input, external APIs)
• Unnecessary complexity or premature abstraction
• Hardcoded values that should be configurable

For shell scripts, also check:

bash -n <script.sh>   # syntax check each script

Label findings: bug for defects, enhancement for quality improvements.

Step 3: Feature completeness

Based on the project's stated purpose in README.md, identify:

• Features described but not yet implemented
• Obvious gaps a user of this tool would expect
• Incomplete workflows (things that almost work end-to-end but don't)
• Integration opportunities with tools this project already touches

Label findings: enhancement.

Step 4: Documentation

• Is the README sufficient for a new user to get started without help?
• Are there undocumented behaviours or options?
• Are examples present and accurate?
• Is CLAUDE.md current with the real project state?
• Are there missing or misleading inline comments in complex code?

Label findings: documentation.

Step 5: Security

Review for:

• Credentials, tokens, or secrets that could be exposed
• Shell injection risks in any scripts that interpolate external input
• Insecure defaults (world-readable files, unvalidated input passed to system calls)
• Dependencies with known vulnerabilities (check if a lock file or manifest is present)
• Over-permissioned tool or API scopes

Label findings: security.

Step 6: Competitive landscape

Search for similar projects, tools, or plugins in the same space:

• What do competing or complementary tools offer that this project doesn't?
• Are there recent developments in the ecosystem (new APIs, new frameworks) this project could leverage?
• What are users asking for in issues/discussions on similar projects?

Use WebSearch to research. Focus on actionable gaps, not general observations.

Label findings: enhancement or idea.

Step 7: Monetisation and passive income opportunities

Think about realistic ways this project could generate passive income or build leverage:

• Sponsorship hooks (GitHub Sponsors, Open Collective)
• A premium or hosted tier (what would justify a paid version?)
• Consulting or training services this project could anchor
• Marketplace or integration listings (e.g. plugin marketplaces, app directories)
• Companion products (templates, courses, related tools)
• Licensing opportunities

Be concrete — vague suggestions are not useful. If an opportunity is real, describe exactly what would need to be built or done.

Label findings: idea.

Step 8: File GitHub issues

For each distinct finding across all dimensions, create one GitHub issue:

gh issue create \
  --title "<category>: <brief description>" \
  --body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Summary

<one paragraph describing the finding>

## Why it matters

<impact on users, security, revenue, or maintainability>

## Suggested approach

<concrete steps to address this>

## References

<links to competitive examples, docs, or research — if applicable>
EOF
)" \
  --label "<bug|enhancement|documentation|security|idea>"

Avoid duplicate issues — check existing open issues first:

gh issue list --state open --limit 100

Note each issue number as you create it.

Step 9: Summary report

Output a table of all issues filed:

#	Title	Label	Priority
N	...	...	High/Med/Low

Then call out:

• Top 3 issues to address first and why
• Most surprising finding
• Highest-leverage opportunity (best return for effort)
