-name: prime
-description: Prime Claude with project context by reading key files and understanding the codebase structure
-argument-hint: [optional: specific area to focus on]
----
-
-# Prime Command
-
-Prime yourself with essential project context to work effectively in this codebase.
-
-## Workflow
-
-### 1. Discover Project Structure
-
-<task>
-First, understand the project layout:
-
-```bash
-# Find project root indicators
-ls -la | head -20
-
-# Check for common config files
-ls -la *.json *.yml *.yaml *.toml 2>/dev/null | head -10
-
-# Find source directories
-ls -d */ 2>/dev/null | head -10
-```
-</task>
-
-### 2. Read Key Documentation
-
-<task>
-Read project documentation in this order:
-
-1. **CLAUDE.md** (if exists) - Project-specific Claude instructions
-2. **README.md** - Project overview and setup
-3. **CONTRIBUTING.md** (if exists) - Development guidelines
-4. **.claude/** directory (if exists) - Custom commands and config
-</task>
-
-### 3. Understand Tech Stack
-
-<task>
-Identify the technology stack:
-
-- **Ruby/Rails**: Look for `Gemfile`, `config/routes.rb`
-- **JavaScript/Node**: Look for `package.json`, `tsconfig.json`
-- **Python**: Look for `requirements.txt`, `pyproject.toml`, `setup.py`
-- **Go**: Look for `go.mod`
-- **Rust**: Look for `Cargo.toml`
-</task>
-
-### 4. Map Key Directories
-
-<task>
-For the identified stack, explore the structure:
-
-**Rails projects:**
-- `app/models/` - Domain models
-- `app/controllers/` - Request handlers
-- `app/views/` or `app/components/` - UI layer
-- `config/` - Configuration
-- `db/schema.rb` - Database structure
-
-**Node/JS projects:**
-- `src/` or `lib/` - Source code
-- `components/` - UI components
-- `api/` or `routes/` - API endpoints
-- `tests/` or `__tests__/` - Test files
-</task>
-
-### 5. Summarize Context
-
-<output>
-After priming, provide a brief summary:
-
-## Project Context
-
-**Name:** [project name]
-**Stack:** [technologies identified]
-**Key directories:** [important paths]
-**Special instructions:** [from CLAUDE.md if present]
-
-Ready to help with: [list 3-5 things you can now assist with]
-</output>
-
-## Focus Areas
-
-If the user specified a focus area ($ARGUMENTS), prioritize:
-
-- **"models"** - Focus on data layer and business logic
-- **"api"** - Focus on endpoints and request handling
-- **"frontend"** - Focus on UI components and views
-- **"tests"** - Focus on test structure and patterns
-- **"config"** - Focus on configuration and environment
