Our review

Passively detects repetitive usage patterns and suggests opportunities for creating new skills, commands, or subagents.

Strengths

  • Passive observation without disrupting workflow.
  • Actionable suggestions with confidence scores and examples.
  • Covers three component types with clear indicators.
  • Configurable detection thresholds.

Limitations

  • Only suggests components; creation requires /epci:create.
  • May produce false positives from heuristic scoring.
  • Less useful for one-off tasks with no repeated patterns.
When to use it

When you want to identify repetitive workflows and missing automation in your AI-assisted development process.

When not to use it

When you need to actively create a component right away—use /epci:create directly.

Security analysis

Safe
Quality score88/100

The skill is purely advisory, providing pattern detection logic and suggestion formats without any executable code, destructive commands, or data exfiltration.

No concerns found

Examples

Find skill opportunities
Analyze my recent coding sessions and suggest any new skills I should create, using the detection patterns from component-advisor.
Propose a command for a workflow
I keep running lint, test, and build manually in sequence. Should I create a command? If so, suggest one with a proper /epci:create proposal.
Recommend a subagent for code review
I do the same security review checklist before every merge. Detect this pattern and recommend a subagent, including confidence score.

Overview

Passive skill that detects opportunities for new EPCI component creation based on usage pattern analysis.

Automatic Detection

New Skill Indicators

| Signal | Score | Example | |--------|-------|---------| | Pattern repeated 3+ times | +3 | Same validation in multiple commands | | Technical domain not covered | +2 | New unsupported stack | | Documentation frequently consulted | +2 | Repeated searches on same topic | | Copy-paste of guidelines | +1 | Same conventions applied |

Suggestion threshold: Score ≥ 4

New Command Indicators

| Signal | Score | Example | |--------|-------|---------| | Repeated action sequence | +3 | Same recurring manual workflow | | Frequent skill combination | +2 | Always the same skills together | | Documented but not automated process | +2 | Guide followed manually | | Explicit user request | +3 | "I'd like a command for..." |

Suggestion threshold: Score ≥ 4

New Subagent Indicators

| Signal | Score | Example | |--------|-------|---------| | Repeated specialized validation | +3 | Specific security check | | Recurring manual review | +2 | Same checklist applied | | Narrow domain expertise | +2 | Specialized knowledge required | | Standardized report format | +1 | Same report structure |

Suggestion threshold: Score ≥ 4

Configuration

Enable/Disable

The component-advisor is passive by default. It observes and suggests without interrupting workflow.

Detection Examples

Example 1: New Skill Detected

💡 COMPONENT OPPORTUNITY: Skill

Pattern: Kubernetes documentation consulted 5 times
         Same deployment structure applied 3 times

Suggestion: /epci:create skill kubernetes-patterns

Benefits:
- Auto-detection of K8s projects
- Standardized patterns
- Reduced search time

Example 2: New Command Detected

💡 COMPONENT OPPORTUNITY: Command

Pattern: Repeated sequence
         1. Lint → 2. Test → 3. Build → 4. Deploy

Suggestion: /epci:create command ci-pipeline

Benefits:
- Process automation
- Consistency across projects
- Time savings

Example 3: New Subagent Detected

💡 COMPONENT OPPORTUNITY: Subagent

Pattern: Accessibility checklist applied 4 times
         Same report format generated

Suggestion: /epci:create agent a11y-auditor

Benefits:
- Automatic audit
- Standardized report
- No missed criteria

Metrics

| Metric | Description | |--------|-------------| | Patterns detected | Number of patterns identified | | Suggestions issued | Number of suggestions proposed | | Suggestions accepted | Components actually created | | Adoption rate | % suggestions → components |

Limitations

  • Detection based on current session
  • No memory between sessions (unless context provided)
  • Suggestions are indicative, not prescriptive
  • Requires repeated patterns to detect
