README

A Claude Code skill for automatic CLI tool management. Detects missing tools, installs them via optimal package managers, and audits project environments.

Features

• Reactive Mode: Auto-detect "command not found" errors and install missing tools
• Proactive Mode: Audit project environments and report missing/outdated tools
• Maintenance Mode: Batch update all managed tools across package managers

Supported Tools

74+ tools across categories:

Category	Tools
Core CLI	ripgrep, fd, fzf, jq, yq, bat, delta, just
Languages	python, node, rust, go, ruby, php
Package Managers	uv, npm, pnpm, cargo, pip, gem, composer
DevOps	docker, compose, kubectl, terraform, ansible
Linters	eslint, prettier, ruff, black, shellcheck, phpstan
Security	trivy, gitleaks, bandit, semgrep
Git Tools	gh, glab, git-lfs, delta

Project Type Detection

Automatically detects project types and their requirements:

Project Type	Detection Files	Required Tools
Python	pyproject.toml, requirements.txt	python, uv
Node.js	package.json	node, npm
Rust	Cargo.toml	rust
Go	go.mod	go
PHP	composer.json, *.php	php, composer
Ruby	Gemfile	ruby
Docker	Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml	docker, compose
Terraform	*.tf	terraform

Installation

Option 1: Via Netresearch Marketplace (Recommended)

/plugin marketplace add netresearch/claude-code-marketplace

Then browse skills with /plugin.

Option 2: Download Release

Download the latest release and extract to ~/.claude/skills/cli-tools/

Option 3: Manual Installation

# Copy to your skills directory
cp -r cli-tools ~/.claude/skills/

Manual Usage

# Install a specific tool
./scripts/install_tool.sh ripgrep install

# Detect project type
./scripts/detect_project_type.sh json .

# Audit environment
./scripts/check_environment.sh audit .

# Update all tools
./scripts/auto_update.sh update

Triggers

The skill activates automatically on:

Error Patterns

bash: <tool>: command not found
zsh: command not found: <tool>
'<tool>' is not recognized as an internal or external command

User Requests

• "check environment", "audit tools"
• "what's missing", "what's outdated"
• "install development tools"
• "update all tools"

Installation Methods

The skill selects the optimal installation method based on catalog priority:

1. GitHub Release Binary - Direct download (fastest, no deps)
2. Cargo - Rust tools via cargo install
3. UV/Pip - Python tools
4. NPM - Node tools
5. Apt/Brew - System packages (fallback)

Priority: user-level (~/.local/bin, ~/.cargo/bin) over system-level.
